AMD Indexed Overclock Speeds

I tried lowering the multiplier to 14 and upping the bus speed to 236 but found I got a lower score by about 1500 points in CPUMark2.

That could be because the fsb is now unstable. Did you increase the vcore and NB voltage a little with the increase in fsb?
 
asus m2n-e but i dont know anything about voltage:confused::confused:
and i only have stock cooling

dont worry to much about the cooling those chips stay cool just pay attention when overvolting and watch that the temps stay under 65C load. voltage wise i dont know if you have the 35 or 62watt cpu but either way if cpuz is reporting correctly setting the cpu to 1.35v and adding +.1v to your chipset should allow a better oc on it

listen here... before you make any speculation about a person... i was trying to say is that amd is not ment for drastic overclocking... and i do use the BIOS.... the 3ghz to 3.5ghz is the bandwidth i call it difference... TYVM!

btw... amd 6000+ has a stock clock 3ghz not 2ghz.... maybe your the one that doesn't know what your talking about do you?....

did you not read what i said i was using a 2ghz opteron for comparison! why is amd not meant for drastic overclocking the semprons all can more or less do 3-3.4ghz some of them can even pull off a 100% oc.

i have been ocing for years now and if you cant tell 2ghz to 2.59ghz is a higher percent oc than 3-3.5ghz (29.5% vs 16.67%) so if your think that it was somehow magic that i got that kinda oc outta my cpu thats your thing but i your new here so i recommend not telling someone who has been here significantly longer than you he doesnt know what he's talking about esp. when he just so happens to be correct.

oh and im sure you have read my sig and notice just how many posts i have do you not and the thing under that the one that says thanks look them up a bunch of those are for HELP OCING.
 
my Oc

CPU: AMD Phenom 9500
Speed: 2509 Mhz [2.5ghz]
HTT: 2053 Mhz
FSB: 228.1
CPUVID: 1.25
Memory: 450 mhz

I just recently got into Overclocking last week over clocked my friends Acer as an experiment i bumped his amd sepmpron 3300+ to 2.2ghz :) And know im hooked just put together my phenom pc =] First true oc

wat temps are you getting on that phenom nick?

and have you tried pushing it 3ghz yet?
 
* 1.1Ghz
* 10.5
* Crucial Ballistix 800
* 229
* 1.35v
* Asus M2N-E SLI
* AMD Athlon 64 X2 4000+
* Cas 5 I think
* stock air

Stupid Bios on mobo only goes to 1.35v so 2.4Ghz is hhe ebst i can get :(
 
temps and misc.

ive only gotten it to boot up windows at around FSB:232 but its not stable im pretty much a newbie at over clocking but my idle temp is around 36 - 38 Celsius

i have a a8n sli deluxe w/ a amd athlon 64 x2 im going to over clock too. :rockout:
 
3600+ Brisbane

2.97GHz 1.52V
9.5x Multi
Crucial Ballistx Tracers at 990MHz(forget the timings:P)
ASUS M2R32-MVP
4x HTT Link
AC Freezer64 Lapped
 
can i post my highest boot into windows speed??:p
 
Okay...Finally, on the last day of owning my Athlon, i get to 3GHz:p

3600+ Brisbane

3006MHz 1.55V
9x Multi
334MHz FSB
1336MHz HT Link
1002MHz Crucial Ballistx Tracers CL4-4-4-12 2.2V

Good stuff:)
 
That could be because the fsb is now unstable. Did you increase the vcore and NB voltage a little with the increase in fsb?
That could be because BIOS wouldn't let me go past 236. If I went to 240 BIOS would drop the FSB back to 236. I didn't try upping the voltage when I tried that.
 
My cheapest build overclock.

ECS 6100SM-M + A64 3200 = 2600 (260*10) @ 1.25V. Memory 2 x512 MB Centon brand DDR2 667. System completely stable for 2 months with all the usual torture (prime 95, cpu stab, games)

Board has voltage settings of .05V higher than default Vcore. So 1.25V (1.2 is default Vcore) is max for that CPU I can go.

Can't overclock inside windows.

Total cost for mobo+cpu+ram = $40 After MIR :laugh:(and got all the rebates:D). Other parts carried over.

So, for $ to highest clock ratio I think this is the best.
 
Hey is my HT link really High???

 
Yes AphexDreamer, it is high:p....That is what my old M2R32-MVP topped out at, is that the max HT link of your board??(I wana see what your 790FX can do:p)

PS: I think most boards tend to top in the 1300MHz range. Mine topped at 1566MHz, and FSB i had tested up to 345MHz, didnt go any higher, but i might sometime just for the hell of it:p, once i get another videocard.

Dude my board is stable at that speed lol, I think I can take it higher!! My HT Link Volts were not even maxed out when I did that, I was just trying to Overclock my CPU lol and I noticed it was that High:laugh:.

Dude this board is killer, I LOVE IT!!:rockout:
 
It does rock! My A8N32 Sli Deluxe can do 1600+. Asus is awesome!
 
HT link Speed-1000MHz
Multiplier-10.5
Memory type and speed-DDR2 667Mhz
FSB-210
CPU Voltage-1.32
Motherboard Type/Brand-Jetway M2A 692 GDG
CPU Type- Amd X2 4000+ Brisbane(AM2)
Memory timings-stock
Cooling-Stock

Oc'ing is pretty messed up. This one reached 2.2 easily. It happened by mistake though... it goes some thing like this
the stock is settings are 200x10.5
so I wanted to see if 210x10 makes any difference.
I booted and saw that the system was noticably faster. I gamed for some time and then opened cpu-z to check once and found it was 210x10.5. The multiplier 10 doesnt exist. Any one else has this problem?
 
Damn.. On my ASUS mobo I always used the 1%-10% thingie. So, how do I do it correctly? Do I keep the voltage? I have a K8N-E Deluxe and I know I can set it to something like
10x 300... and then there is something that say "66" , can't remember what the heck that was.. Anyone here who knows of a good guide for OC that?? I have an air cooled system btw..
 
If I can dig up the values, I'll post some of my AMD overclocks in here for reference.
 
this is my first try on this brand new rig, haven't fully tested it but it seems stable so far.

6400+ B.E., stock volt.
