1700+ Overclocking Success!!!

[FlyingHamster]

Wow!

That's all I have to say about this 1700+ tbred b. I got more out of this thing than I expected. You guys should really get one. My 8k3a+ proved itself worthy lol, I didn't think it could handle this OC at first.



195x12.5 right now. My temp at full load is 40 C. System temp is 33 C. (<-- Is that a normal system temp?)
That means I still got a lot more room to go lol. Im only gonna stop when my cpu reaches around 60 C.

Quick question: Should I raise my FSB to around 205? Im just afraid that if I do, I will get agp tearing and HD corruption. My vid card is already overclocked SLIGHTLY, so I don't know. I do have pc3200 TwinMOS ram, but Im just not sure. What do u guys recommend???: Raise FSB and lower vid card speed? Or keep FSB and raise vid card speed? At 195 FSB, can I still overclock my Ti4200 a lot more?

Let me know what u think. Thanks...

your temps are better then mine.. by far.. my 1700 is at 1840mhz or so, and its like 41 idle, 47 load

my case fans suck.. and i only have two

I would leave it alone, you'll probably throw your AGP and PCI busses too far off spec. I have the same board with a 2100+ tbred B, and raised my FSB to 166... I did have to turn down my memory timings down just a tad... (just bearly under turbo, but still more agressive that the "fastest" setting) what are you timings looking like, and did you have to rais your vdimm at all?

wow how did u get it overclocked that fast i have a 2000xp chip @ 1750mhz so what do u think i could get out of mine 2ghz?

What heastink/fan + speed?

I have a 1700+ and an 1800+ sitting at home... time to go play I think!!! (and they can join the herd as well )

[nukes]

LOL, I've got a DUT3C sitting on a K7S5A, so the highest I've been able to overclock it is 1650mhz! I know it could take more, just need a better mobo that actually supports overclocking. And voltage adjustment. Once I get that, I will wire up my CMOS reset switch and get cracking.

cool ( I will be unlocking my 2100+ he he he)

It's all in the stepping. <shakes head> I've got a RIUGA that will run fine at 1750mhz but anything past that...not good. Max temp I got out of it was 51C and it rebooted soon after. lol.

Perhaps when I get some cash I'll go to one of those places that lets you pick the stepping...and get myself a JIUHB. That'd be nice..

[phrozen_dreamz]

I"m gettin a JIUHB soon. Are the AIUHB any good?
