Pentium D Overclock

Deleted member 24505 · Jul 3, 2006

when you clock and it runs to hot,the chip or board throttle the chip to a lower speed to keep the temp down,afaik throttling is not good,if its throttling your temp or clock is too high.if you have a stable clock leave it.
there is a prog called throttle watch(google it)

thnx for the info, i'll check it out. good explaination btw, and from what I've read the temp Intel set is 65c, then it starts dropping the cpu clock.

yes i think it keeps the temp down.

In BF2 loading screens, I got beaten by an Athlon 3800+ with 1GB of ram and a 7900GTX. When I was on 30% he was verifying!

Casheti · Jul 3, 2006

It's finally dawned on me what a peice of shit my CPU really is. Even if I clocked it to 4.0GHz, I bet he would still own me.

My AMD Athlon 64 3200+ @ stock 2.0GHz beats my Intel Pentium D 820 2.8Ghz overclocked to 3.2Ghz in every game benchmark, and SuperPi. Gets 100-150 points more in 3DMark05 @ stock speed, and when @ 2.4GHz, beats the Pentium D by 200 points. When @ 2.6Ghz, it beats it by 300-350 points.

which size pi test did you do?.what was your time?.

just wanna compare to my d,my 05 cpu is-7987

This basically means that Intel Pentium D's SUCK no matter how big they are clocked. I'm SO switching to AMD next time.

Deleted member 24505 · Jul 4, 2006

wait and see when the core 2 comes out,i dont think intel suxx.intel is ahead at the moment in the tech(65nm) stakes,and i'm pretty sure the core is gonna rock and run cooler doing it.

The pentium D 8x0 series suck ass because of their 533mhz fsb and high multiplier, but the Pentium D 9x0 series are very good because of their 800mhz fsb. The 950 can easily reach over 4.2ghz, and performs well in benchmarks and games.

Tigger's right, wait for Core 2. Those things are awsome, will easily blow away anything AMD currently has. :nutkick:

Casheti · Jul 4, 2006

Well, when Core 2 Duo comes out, there will either be a huge recall, or AMD will bring out something twice as good a few months later, and I'll be stuck with the shitty Intel CPU that nobody likes.

rpg711 · Jul 4, 2006

u coulda got the 820 pD and got really high oc instead

Deleted member 24505 · Jul 4, 2006

amd is NOT gonna bring something out a coupla months l8r.amd's k8l is not coming till q3 07.and amd are not even on 65nm tech yet,by which time intel will probs be starting to get its 45nm tech out.the only thing amd can do against core 2 duo is to drop the prices of its current cpu's in the hope that fans will buy them cheaper than the killer core 2 duo chips.wait till core comes out and buy that and watch amd fans weep.

strick94u · Jul 4, 2006

next cpu's will be faster amd intel so what if all you are going on is frame rates. wow than buy a ps3 or xbox becuase all you are doing is game play. what else can your pc do? can you edit 12 3000x2050 dpi photographs at once I cant on my amd 3400+ yet I can with my 805 D. most of the frame rate game is your gpu anyway. often we make a choice and we are stuck with it my last choice was to build an agp with ddr1 I will live with this choice for awhile. sure I would love to have 7,000 on 3dmark 06 but it does not make a pc that can burn 3 cds at a time or photo edit like a bitch though it could. I simply do not want to burn that much money on a pc not when I have a server to maintain my wifes pc and 2 laptops
it has very little to do with the better processor I believe both are great but both have to live on windows which is the bottle neck ask any linux user

Ok, finally got my AC Freezer 7 Pro today and got it installed. Stock temps dropped a bit for idle, but under load is where the magic happened:

Pentium D 930 @ 3.0 = 43c (Sandra Burn In: CPU MultiMedia benchmark)
Pentium D 930 @ 3.31 = 43.5c (Sandra Burn In: CPU MultiMedia benchmark)
Pentium D 930 @ 3.75 = 46c (Sandra Burn In: CPU MultiMedia benchmark)

(Reason I picked the MultiMedia benchmark, that's what heated up the CPU most)

Can't get over the 3.75 hump, probably my mobo. Anyhow, scored a better 3DMark05 with the CPU OC. I get a blue screen of death (BSOD) every time I boot much above that. Thoughts?

Comments: Uggh... my 120mm intake is right over the AC 7 pro blocking component cooling. Also, sloppy install, man I hate the "push-pins-into-mobo" scheme. AC7pro arrived with some fins bent (i know, the bottom ones are supposed to be bent), but a bit misshappen. Oh well, for $28 it's a great deal

Error_Force, if you run 2 instances of Prime95, is heats it up a lot, more than the SiSoft Sandra Burn-in. Do you know how to run 2 Instances of Prime95?

Nope, don't even have it. Would like to know though

Also, found out what the problem is... my mobo is for sure, it will only go to 1066MHz FSB, but it won't allow me to drop my multiplier... so there's the answer to my problem. What is the max FSB for an ASUS P5WD2-Premium and what settings are people using to break the 4GHz barrier?

error_f0rce · Jul 7, 2006

Has anybody run a 1000MHz FSB for long periods of time? What are the dangers associated with the bus being pushed that high? I'd imagine overheating the Northbridge? :confused:

infrared · Jul 7, 2006

i run over 1200mhz regularly. The only problem you might run into is all the components connected to the bus, ei. sata/raid controllers and stuff start screwing up. You won't do any damage though, maybe just risking instability.

Also, for stress testing, try this little appy i found. It's basically a multithreaded Prime95 with a GUI

works great.

What is the speculation of Pentium D (Socket 775) prices once AM2 and Conroes hit the market?

Thanks. Think we should expect the 930 to go lower than $173 (Newegg) sometime this month?

If it does, we will have hit the point where a good mobo is the same price as the processor you want on it (ASUS P5WD2-Premium). It's too bad the mobo market doesn't work like that :shadedshu

mikelopez · Jul 7, 2006

Actually, I think that the mobo is already more expensive with the current prices.

Good call, good call... the ASUS P5WD2 then
