can you tell us how high you can go on stock volts?

killerx525 · 21st April 2012, 12:37 AM

3.7Ghz. I currently have it at 1.525V @ 3.8GHz.

Damn. Your getting to awfully high volts.....

That board just has the standard AMD PWM design, hence droop is probably making it run 1.43v under load

He'd have to get the DMM out and physically measure where it's at

Thats insane voltage for such a small overclock ...

Back it off ...

That is a massive boost in voltage for 0.1ghz. You'd get more performance from keeping it at 3.7ghz and upping the nb frequency to 2.6 or 2.8ghz.

Agreed, with that voltage, I am getting 4.2GHz on my 1.4V 1100.

4.2Ghz on the locked (?) 1075T at 1.45v at the moment, it's been running pretty smoothly for the last few weeks so definitely step back with your voltage, way too over-the-top

62ºc is practically cooking point, highest should be 50~

Have 1.46 V@ 4.1 Gig, NB @2870 using Xigmatek Aegir CPU fan nearly best air cooler around.

Hi New here,

Having issues with my 1090T overclock, just on a multi no FSB changing.
Hangs upping the multiplier to 20 to give 200x 20 with < 1.42v.
Put it 1.42 and beyond and system just turns off.

Cooler is a Corsair H80i, so temps no problem barely ever get passed 36 degrees

Memory is HyperX DDR3 1866, and PSU is Thermaltake ToughPower 775w. MB is ASRock 970 Extreme 4

Could be a dud chip, I doubt unstable PSU as just bought.

How much memory do you have?

Try setting your RAM to 1333Mhz and the NB to 2400 - 2600

2 x 4gb sticks

Got it stable on using the BIOS OC mode at 15% and manually upped the voltage to 1.315v

Still a fair bit away from the desired 4ghz mark I want. Not sure if its the motherboard the ASRock Extreme 4 which is the weak link to all this.

1.45v core is the sweet spot for these chips.You got water cooling right

keep it nice and

.

AcoustiK · 1st February 2013, 9:20 AM

The unfortunate thing is, bumping to 1.45 just crashes my PC regardless overclosed or stock, somehow I am thinking i've got a dud chip, As I had power issues with an older PSU which damaged the mobo I used before this.

Running stable at 3.885Ghz 210x18.5 @ 1.375v, with watercooling i'd hope to do more...

That's my sweet spot as well

4Gig 1.44v prime stable

can't go any higher no matter what voltage
