i found that actually going lower on volts will go to higher bus speed
maybe try to experient some more with lower volts as a lot of other guys are finding the same

you are doing well though no doubt

Yep can't wait to snag me an ln2 dewar. Got some 775 get back to do. Hopefully this chick gets back with me on this one.

Good show on the bios settings bro, true Overclockaholics fashion

HAHA decided to flip the script. Here is something I haven't done in along time and definitely not with my i7 setup. STRESS TEST. Yeah, yeah I did it a lil while back but for like 30-60 minutes at 4.2ghz. I'm going for the full 8 hours this time and with a real overclock or at least the start of one. Working on a nice clock for my gaming coming up real soon. Here is what I have so far and I know this is far from stable. I'm kinda proud of my lil cpu that could. 4.315ghz at 1.27-1.282 volts. Proud of my RAM and uncore too. Test being ran is Prime95 blend. I pass the 4.3ghz barrier I will move onto 4.4ghz! I will keep you updated.

Well I had to settle for only 6 hours as I woke up this morning a lil before 2am to go to work just to realize there was one of the biggest lightening/thunder/rain/wind storms going on that I had ever seen. Not wise. True I have a nice power strip, wish it was an uninterrupted power supply, but why chance it right? So I will add that to my rule list:

1. Overclockaholics don't let other Overclockaholics buy cheap probes!
2. Wise man once said, "Check your local news/weather before going to bed when your plans are to run a stress test all night."

4.3ghz just ain't good enough for me as it was too easy. I need something I have to work for. 4.4ghz out! I have a feeling heat will be a factor for me as I have a low voltage/ high temp CPU.

NICE!!! i wanna see the temps at your 24/7 clock once you decide on it

[DrNip]

Well at that speed I am cruising at mid 40's. I am also only on air. But my 24 hour clock is going to be hurt but heat I feel.

Say hello to my little friends. I've been out doing a little recruiting. From left to right we have a Celeron 347, Celron 352 and a Pentium 631. Hopefully out of the three one will take me to 7ghz land! Looking to pick up a ASUS P5B Deluxe today if I don't get out bidded. Pick up the RAM next week and it is off to the races. I am just wondering if I will need a north bridge pot, anyone?





And say hello to my pride and joy.



This dewar is bigger than what I thought it would be. I was barely able to put it in the benching closet. Just need a withdrawal device for it. Looking to pick one up in two weeks.

Nice Dewar there !!!

Nippy, northbridge pot will be very helpful with 965 chipsets. Look in XS LN2/DICE section, someone was selling some for like $5 + s/h
