I've never been above 3000, but going from 2000 MHz, to 2600 MHz is a very noticeable different already.

forget 3000, just getting to 2600 made a huge difference here. i'm starting to wonder if PII's 'poor' (compared to i7 at stock) performance is related to that stock clock alone.

it wouldn't be any wonder if that was the case Mussels I've noticed a fair bit of difference in going from 2000 to 2300 my system feels just a wee bit more snappier and boot times gone down by about 10~15 secs

I have had my x6 1100T at 4400mhz @ 1.45V VCORE CPU-NB 3000mhz @ 2.125 RAM 2000mhz @ 6-9-6 I will post my pics as soon as I can just wanted to put in my 2 cents as I have seen some crazy voltages on the CPU for lesser speeds. I have the ASUS IV FORMULA & EXTREME. among many others next post later today i will put up all my screen shots with my 940, 955, 1090T and 1100T. have fun with the OC'ing! http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=1619606

Hmmm, I wonder. Like I stated earlier and you just did, from 2 GHz to 2.6 GHz on the NB, it's a darn huge difference!!!!!

I believe it is still 2000 MHz.

dang, I just came across this, done at 1.420v. I missed that chip when it died!

apparently it was am2 that had 1800 mhz HT
am2+ uses HT3 so would have 2000 mhz HT
max safe cpu on air is 1.5v and 1.6v water
as for ht voltages i really have no idea,mine is set for 1.22v,but i think alot of it is down to your chip and i havent seen much proof that increasing ht voltage brings stability,trial and error?

i know i am correct go look through this thread some more if anyone has found BIOS glitches its me. All of the foxconn bios's have that issue there is no above ambient phenom II including thuban that can run that NB.

Chiller
opinion doesnt make something a fact,so how would it be that i can increase the NB and run the aida64 tests that prove the increase has visible positive results and it just be a bios glitch.
doesnt make a whoel heap of sense....

call it what you like as long as it makes you feel good.
i dont lie and i wouldnt be here helping others get noticeable increases in throughput if i was a blagger....
if you look down bottom right of the screenie and top right where the windows gadget is and you will see the coretemp,a measly 12c because the chiller isnt necesary today

Unless your ambient temperatures are below 12c you realize that that temp is impossible without a "chiller" right? Like many Phenom II chips, the temp sensors are borked.

"There are many who talk on from ignorance rather than from knowledge, and who find the former an inexhaustible fund of conversation."
Perhaps you should be more specific instead keeping key information from other to make yourself look better. If your cooling equipment is outdoors, of course that would make sense. You didn't mention this tidbit.

I didn't say you were wrong, I was pointing out the obvious with what little information you gave.
