My First Intel (E3200)

HossHuge · Nov 23, 2009

Last week some buddies came over so I brought rig 2 down and paired it with rig 1 for some online play. We had so much fun that I decided to keep both rigs downstairs. So I bought a E3200 and a Asus P5KPL-AM mobo and built a computer for for my room to replace rig 2. Just for movies and stuff. So of course I had to see how well it could overclock.

This is with stock volts and stock cooler. All I did was change my memory freq in the bios to 667mhz and raised the bus speed to 285. I worked my way up to the 285. I know the temps are high, so I plan on getting an aftermarket cooler for it. I'm really debating getting some better ram and trying to reach over 4.

HossHuge · Nov 23, 2009

Sorry I guess I should say that the E3200 comes with a stock freq of 2.4.

1 GHZ oc, very nice. I bet you'll hit 4 with better cooling. Thats some nice chip, hitting 3.4 with only stock cooling.

I can almost guarantee 4Ghz under a higher end cooler. Something like a Dark Knight or Core Contact Freezer.

Awesome results, Wolfdale CPUs OC very well!
4ghz should be possible, but you may have to settle for ~3.9, I'm not sure how well that Asus board would handle 333mhz FSB

That board supports Core2duo that use 333FSB as default. So I think that 333 would not be problem.
What is the max vcore on that mobo ?

HossHuge · Nov 24, 2009

3.5gb's and still at stock volts and fan. I'm trying for 3.6 next.

The vcore settings are +50mv +100mv and +150mv. Is this what you mean?

awesome chip, the wolfdales are an incredible line up of overclocking monsters.

HossHuge · Nov 24, 2009

3.6 in the bag!! I'm beginning to wonder if I'm doing doing everything right. Also, my ram speed is scaring me.

Well done good clocks - :toast:

The low end Intels overclock brilliantly. My E2160 went from 1.8 up to 3.4 it's just a pity you can't open them up and put some extra cache inside

Also it seems wrong to get a heatsink and fan that costs as much as the CPU you're putting it on.

JrRacinFan · Nov 24, 2009

Brilliant clock bro! The e5200 chip in my wife's PC looks like it clocks the same. If that's true try out 11x341 for 3750 oh and don't forget to set your ram divider to 266fsb/800dram or 2:3 for 1025mhz. xD

what? when did the e3200 come out? i guess i missed that release.

also, realtemp has a built in GPS? (how else would it know the distance to tj maxx?)

yeah, i know.... :laugh:

newtekie1 · Nov 24, 2009

I've had one of these sitting on my workbench for a while now, planning on sticking it in a Mini-ITX board and building a very small gaming machine with it. After seeing the stock heatsink though, I definitely need something better, just need to fine one that will fit on the board and in the case. :laugh:

It's been out for a while, along with the E3300.

I really need to keep up with these things.

That E3200 is a Celeron Dual Core.

Too little cache is the only problem with these babies.

If these have a low fsb wall invest $10-15 more into an e5200 or Athlon II 24X.

@Zubasa
They would actually work great in a midrange casual gaming build.

3870x2 · Nov 24, 2009

e5200s have a great track record from what I hear. Ill stick with my e8500.

Yah may want to. Even though upon saying that I was impressed with both of my e5200's. They have both served me well.

@HossHuge

Following up from my previous post
that 3.6Ghz clock does look like a good 24/7 as well. May wanna keep it there.

HossHuge · Nov 24, 2009

I found this but i'm not sure how legit it is...

I'm not going to test it anymore till I put on a better cooler.. I think this weekend I'll try my Vantec Aeroflow FX 120 on it and see how far I can go. Would faster (DDR2 1066) ram help my cause?

And this will give me some more room with my ram?

It should. That link to ripping.org are legit records but upon looking 95% are under extreme cooling conditions. 2:3 should give you bit more room to play with, it nets you 1Ghz ram @ 333fsb.

+1 they will even pretty easily hit mid-high 4s, sometimes 5s under extreme cooling.

HossHuge · Nov 25, 2009

3.7gb was a no go. I can't complain about 1.2gb over stock freq with stock volts/cooler. I'm trying to find some 1066 ram. For some reason it's hard to find here.

kylzer · Nov 25, 2009

Not bad i got 4.2 out of mine @ 1.408v lol

you should get the same if you give it a voltage bump

also theses have fsb walls usually 333 and up same with the E5xxx

HossHuge · Nov 25, 2009

My ram is holding me back I think. It's only a cheap made in Taiwan brand. Also my board isn't the greatest ethier.

HossHuge · Nov 30, 2009

So i picked up some better ram and some cooling. I've gotten my e3200 to 3.8. For that I've upped my v-core +150 and my ram as well. So when trying for 3.9 I started getting some weird graphical issues.

My motherboard says it supports ram up to 1066(OC) and I have gone beyond that so is that what's causing this or is it something else?
