AMD Phenom II - Temps and Clocking.

My 965 is cooled under an Thermaltake ISGC-300

Well, 10 data points so far, but that's noot quite enough just yet. Interesting to see everyone around the same clocks though...

 

[Zubasa]

Looks like my 810 has the best OC in terms of % so far.
My cheap Chinese OEM cooler does better than I expected even @1.54V.

 

[DrunkenMafia]

I got my C2 945 undervolted .1v @ stock 3ghz and it never breaks 50c using my corsair H50. That is in a micro atx case & in the tropics where my room temp is often 30c.

I'm too lazy to post a pic of my CPU-z.

Right now I've got my 940 at 3.5GHz.

14x w/ 250bus. 1.4125v

NB is @ 1.2v

idle temps are 39 and load runs about 54. I can't get this sucker stable above 3.5Ghz right now. I've got to dink around some more. I'm not sure when I'll get to it, but I figure I'd share what I have so far. I've got a CoolerMaster V8 for my cooling. Upgraded from a Zalman 9500A (about a 5 degree C difference from the two, the V8 works so much better).

First post updated.

Anyone else?

 

[Snipermonkey2]

Well Im working on bringing my x3 720 up I unlocked the 4th core and trying to get some stable numbers now.

 

[2wicked]

I really wish this thing had lower temps.

Haven't gotten the most out of this chip, just put it underwater so I'll fiddle with it as time permits.

965BE C3 @ 3.9ghz, 1.51V. at the moment i blame my am2+ board for the high volts needed for 3.9

with my zalman on low it idles around 34 C, loads around 55C w/ hsf on low.

 

[Snipermonkey2]

So my x3 720BE Unlocked is at 3.5ghz 1.477V stable now

 

[Pyarn]

X6?

So, I picked up a C3 955BE to go with my 5870's until 890FX and 6-Core cpus arrive.

Thread necro..
Have you got those X6 yet?

 

[cadaveca]

Why do you ask?

 

[Reefer86]

to keep a NB stable @ 2600mhz what voltage u increasing. just the NB and cpu-NB ?

 

[Pyarn]

Why do you ask?

Nothing in particular..I was thinking of buying one of those but after seeing some of the bench result~ I can still keep mine for another year

to keep a NB stable @ 2600mhz what voltage u increasing. just the NB and cpu-NB ?

I keep mine 2666Mhz @ 1.35V CPU-NB, I leave NB V @ 1.3 IIRC

 

[cadaveca]

to keep a NB stable @ 2600mhz what voltage u increasing. just the NB and cpu-NB ?

I run almost everything undervolted now, cpu @ 1.375, mem @ 1.6v, and NB gets slight increase, to 1.175v(from 1.1v). I cannot run 1600 mem without increasing cpu/NB..2600mhz NB is fine @ 1.1v.

Running 3.6ghz, 2600NB, 1600mhz mem 6-6-6-18.

Load temps for me now, under H50, are @ 52c. Still a pretty hot chip, undervolted, and with extra cooling..

Gotta update the first post with the new guys too...

I have 2 965BE C3's running.
#1- 965BE @ 3.9GHz stock voltage / under a Tuniq Tower 120 Extreme / load temps hang around 55c.
#2- 965BE @ 4.086GHz 1.488v / under a H50 / load temps around 53c

That's some low V you got there..I cant even back down even 0.1V.. :shadedshu ..my load temps are 45-47 (under 1x120 rs120 + 120 crap alu rad) Hope it'll improve when I receive my 360rad tomorrow

Have you tried a thermal control panel/ temp monitor?

I had similar issues so I installed an older panel to find that temps were 20c lower than listed via temp programs

 

[cadaveca]

Yeha, I've got thermal sensors all over the rig, and even the H50's water temps increases to match the high temps, so it's not bad IHS contact or anything like that...it's just hot. I've even put a far better 110CFM fan on the H50, shrouded, and while that lets temps drop a bit more, the noise is too great for me to live with.

Once I get my X6 and CH4, I'll be putting this rig under dry ice, at least, and maybe LN2, depending on how it goes. I gotta pick up a bench first, though, and that won't happen until mid next month. Two fo my kids ahve birthdays next month, and I just finished dumping ALOT of cash on them for that(more than 2x5870 cost), so my rig plans have been delayed a bit.

Any Thuban temps?

 

[Psychoholic]

43C Full load here, idle in the low 20's.

Xigmatek red scorpion on it. : 3.8Ghz/2.6ghz NB / 1.35vcore

Any Thuban temps?

 

[OneMoar]

sounds pretty good to me My 250 runs 55C @ full load @ 3.4 @ 1.35V

anything under 65 is acceptable in my book

Wow.I'm impressed
a good daddy you are how old are them?
BTW any of you guys ran PII above 62? I got mine around 67 for around 15 minutes but it didn't shut down..instead I shut it down manually - got scared
