you dont need more HT than 1800-2000, everything above that actually diminishes the performance, dont ask me why

Thanks! And there is still gas left in the Tank, i feel!

You're talking about NB right?

[catnipkiller]

Nice OC velvet. Nice to see you got a 960T with an unlocked multi. There are some that don't have that feature. Can you give me a maxxmem bench if you dont mind.

@Catnip

Try ctrl+f1 at main bios screen. Also, your IMC might not like the additional bandwith "?" Maybe im talkin out my butt.

Thanks! Didnt knew not all were unlocked... mine was sold under the "Black Edition" Moniker, so i guess there is a locked and an unlocked part?

of course, here :

Try tightening bank cycle. What's your TRFC's set at? Yup, the OEM 960T's are a locked part, retail box are unlocked.

To get even more out of that could lower 1 multi on CPU-NB and start overclocking dram.

960T (unlocked)- p/n- HD96Z..... 95 watt

960T (locked)- p/n- HD96T..... 125 watt

It looks looks as long as it's 95 watt and has the Z in the part number it's the unlocked version..... haven't seen any of the locked versions around

maybe i will do, as final measure... the subtimings are just the stock ones for now, as said, didnt do much about them till now

of course, just simply upped the multis and tested for stability, the best ist yet to come i think!

actually, the sticker on my box reads: "OPN: HD96ZTWFGRBOX"
Its the 95w version, yeah... also havent seen any locked ones here either

[eidairaman1]

Depends on OPN cpu-world has that data

How are your temps at that OC?

Have my 960T at 3.8/4.0 turbo and temps stay under 46C max load with my Xig Dark Knight (fan on auto). I will probably push it over 4.0 next week... just making sure it's stable under All conditions before I go further.

Clocks atm are as following:

temps are between 28(core,bugged)/36(socket) idle and 36/44 load,i use 1.35v CPU-NB all running passive on my loop... with fans turned on the temps are MUCH lower.

I'm telling you man. You need to up dram speed a little.

im sorry JR ... i was a lazy bastard till now, gonna up ram clocks soon, just wanted to make sure everything else is right (and how i far i can go with NB etc when searching for the optimum dram clock+timings)

i got this 2400 cl10 ddr3 here, idk what they can do on a good imc... have to try i guess

Hopefully the IMC can take the extra clocks since you're already stressing it at 3.2ghz. I must say though, those are some impressive clocks!

That was mere curious testing as said ( to see how far i can go)... i still feel there is more left in the tank, but with 3.2ghz NB that seems to be pretty stable (for now at least),I can work

What i like the most, is the silence of this Setup... CPU runs completely passive, except for when there are high temps in summer or so, or the rad has heated up too much for my liking over the night, or during stress testing. 10 Minutes of fanning, make it cool for hours again, till it is saturated again, thru normal desktop load and idling ,daily use... (and that happens once a week maybe)

[theoneandonlymrk]

Show off, I can here my water cooled pcs fan s from the next room, get it folding, I se!e it as stability testing 24/7 at 4250 and 3150nb
see if it's on in the morning: ()

They will send you a new board of same model or equivalent. Honestly i wish i told you to write down the SN of the board. So u know if what you got is new.


AND Velvet. Keep all parts dust free in that machine. I mean monthly too

I roughly remember it, I would know it if I saw it though. I don't really care if it's the same one, as long as it works :3

Going for 4+ Ghz on my Athlon II x3 440 tonight. Not a Phenom but similar traits. Missing having a Phenom around

That'll be cool if you get there. What happened to your phenom?

[MGF Derp]

Traded my little brother it for this Athlon. I have other hardware and I wanted to get hime upgraded. I have a plan on getting another one, thinking 960T like the rest of you are getting.
