lol

on other notes, i removed one of the filters to the one blowing over the vid card, which btw i would say didnt go over 50C when i ran 3dm06
which btw i got 9208 on after ocing i could put my hand on it and say that it was pretthy hot and it didnt burn my hand

now im taknig the 2 fromnt filters off

soon ill be seeing how low i can use this OC with the lowest voltages, ive peaked at 58


enough with over clocking im really trying to convince me mummy to take me to home depot and an auto body shop but i gotta finish a 5 page essay first so i might have the stuff by 5 ish

[azminisk8r]

lol thx for finally convincing me to ttake those off now im running 2C cooler, which actualy matters cuz im at 59 max now

Yeah, 60c is like 150-160f, not good, mine idles at around 110f. Just so you have a temp comparison.

[azminisk8r]

yeah well apparently i was.o5 volts off what i needed, so i got to max out at 55, a decently respectable OC load temp

btw now its at 3.4,

and yes i will aactually be modding some time soon

what stress tests have you done to see if that overclock is stable?

[azminisk8r]

orthos and 3d m o6 i havent oc'd the ram so im not worrying baout that yet

I would download Prime95 to make sure your system is stable. Leave it to run for a few hours.

It's the best overclocking stress tester.

thx btw w./o shroud worked better, and i know its not stable in cpu cuz orthos and prime95 both crased there but im fine with having my computer crash edvery 3 hours or so

...Why? Why??? Why would you be ok with it crashing every 3 hours??? Crashes are bad!!! They don't crash because they're happy and think it's funny! They crash because something is wrong!

I'm sorry, but I really doubt your computer is going to last you very long. If it crashes every 3 hours, pretty soon it's going to just head off and die.

i agree, PC's are not designed to crash, The crash every three hours will kill your hard drive in a month or so, next will be your CPU, then your memory from power spikes when crashing and restarting.
