Wow nice man!! WTG Keep up the good work!

 

[overclocking101]

you ought to checnge this to 1156 oc thread. simply to the fact that I own an 1156 i7 but the i7 thread is only for 1366 in fact in any of the forums I frequent there is only one with a thread for i78XX cpus. just a thought. ima post here anyways

That would be a good Idea....although I see what Johnny was thinking. There are tones of i7 overclock threads out there. Not many i5's.

But on second thought though..... that is one thing that sux with this generations CPU naming and scheming!

Do make it completely fair you would need an overclocking thread for ever chip out there.

The i5 600's are different to overclock than the i5 750. The i5 750 is different to overclock than the i7 800's. The i3' 500's are different then the i5 600's. Then last the i7 800's are different to overclock then the i7 900's.

Just wait till the i7 980 releases. That will be different again!

If you ask me Intel really screwed up their naming schemes!

That's got to be like some kind of record for the IGP clock.....not to mention the Vantage score for Intel.

You might be right.... Not joking he should look that up and see what the top score is for a chipset

 

[mastrdrver]

Does GPUz even report correctly for that Intel GPU (or any at all)?

Ignore the title, post whatever!

lil toying here

 

[Cold Storm]

why is it that no one thinks that my clocks where on air? Johnny and 3dsage.. lol... Their done on Push/Pull Thor's Hammer..


Btw, stop toying with me dark! good clocks. Wish you could hit 5ghz. Probably can with a certain board coming your way

 

[johnnyfiive]

Ah, I'll fix the front page cold. I figured you had water cause ur system specs seemed like you had water.

All good man. The cooler I have right now is A Noc, before that was Thor's Hammer. I'd have to give you the full version of the Noc fan once I get home.. Don't remember it, and they tightened our work filters.. So I can't find the Tweaktown review. But, it's not the D-14. lol..

As a matter of fact, it is the world record holder atm for GMA HD in Vantage. Also holding all other 3D benchmark records with the exception of 3D06. http://hwbot.org/competition/gbt_h55_h57?tab=submissions

I may have to do some 2 core, 24x, overclocking this weekend before it starts getting hot here.

 

[overclocking101]

what are you guys with the 1156 quads using for VTT and PLL voltage?? my rig is making me angry with its lack of oc capabilities damn it!

 

[Fitseries3]

can anyone with an i5 750 on air PM me please?

 

[mudkip]

I;m getting an i5 soon

 

[Chicken Patty]

I;m getting an i5 soon

Keep us posted dude

Finally haha okay this is a Mini ITX build. Its going to be used for photo editing mostly.
I wanted a small powerful and quiet system. The PSU and CPU cooler are very quiet. They are both reviewed by silentpcreview.com. Specs below.

i5 750 + Scythe Big Shuriken
Kingston 4GB DDR3 2000MHz C9 (2x2GB)
Gigabyte GA-H55N-USB3
Lian Li PC-Q07
Nexus NX-5000 R3 530W power supply
HD's :1 x Intel Postville 80GB , 1x Western Digital Green 500GB 32MB cache.

I bought the i5 from someone else for 145 euro's shipped.
The PSU is also second handed and got it for 35 euro's shipped and the Kingston memory for 90 euro's shipped. The rest is new.

I already have some overclock results from the previous owner.

3,6Ghz @ 1.15v BIOS. not bad huh? I think i'm going to run this thing at 3Ghz with 1v or something. That way my case won't get too hot.

OMG look at those clocks.. What coolers are you using guys? What do you recommend for me for $100 I kinda like this overclocking sh"t.. lol

if you have enough space:

-Noctua NH-D14
-Prolimatech Megahalems-
-Scythe Mugen 2
-Thermalright Venomous X

 

[WaXT]

I would install all those to get these clocks? *shock*

Well, you don't need a state of the art cooler to reach those speeds but if you don't want your CPU to die within 1 year then you should cool your CPU well.

Also your memory is running in single channel now, you know that right?

My first experience with Nehalem and so far a piece of cake. This on an LE board with lower end PWM too. Can surely push and tweak further; 1.32 vcore right now. Got the 21 multi to play with too. Need some better RAM.

Also, as you can see in Real Temp at the top, I still use C1E and EIST (C-STATE) and it drops multi and voltage at idle. Still testing those enabled; worked great on my DFI X48 boards. The benefits may not be hugely significant but I sure don't need 4 cores at 4000+ MHz to screw around on the web.

How do I know if it is single channel? What is single channel anyway? (lol sorry )
