E5200 OC/BenchMark Thread.(56k warning)

_jM said:
you didn't break it... my E5200 is the same way. and it was like that right out the box. i believe mine is stuck around 33c or so..

Yup yup mine sticks at 32C on idle when I know for certain its quite a bit cooler. I mean with no overclock at all, going by RealTemp, at 1.2v my load temp is 37C.
 
Well, 319 isn't stable but 318 is. I'll keep playing because it usually sticks for a few days then I'm able to push higher. So far I'm happy...

3.5GHz, 318FSB, 1272MHz on my RAM with 6-6-6-15-1T command rate.

:D

Well, after some meddling. I've managed to get 319FSB stable.

:D

So, I'm at 3.5GHz which is pretty good considering the 2.6GHz stock speed.

Awesome man!:rockout: Good to see you are getting what you wanted out of that chip! Now lets see if we can squeeze some more outa that sucker! ( Im sure we can, you are just now breaking it in!):toast:

Now Lets see some benches!:D
 
If I can get 11.5 multi stable I'll be able to get it to 3.65GHz but 3.59GHz with that multi wasn't.

:(

I'll download SuperPi now. ;)

Not too shabby there! :p
 
^^

I'm pretty pleased. I've just been trying to get 3.65GHz stable but it'll BSOD into XP and 7 and not matter what I throw at it won't happen. Looks as if I'll have to loosen my timings to see if I can get past 318.

Good work InnocentCriminal Keep pushing it
 
Thanks!

I don't understand why it'll crap out at 319FSB with slightly increased voltages or not be at all stable with a 11.5 multi. Not to worry, I may have a fiddle sometime this week, but as my GF is here I doubt I will.
 
Tried .63 GTL's and about 2 notches higher CPU VTT/FSB Termination?
 
My GTLs are already at 0.63 and increasing the VTT and FSB Term doesn't seem to yield anything, even if I push it further still (obviously within safe values) I still don't seem to get it stable. The board seems to be grossly temperamental so I expect it might work at some point.

I may get time tonight to play detective, but I doubt it.
 
Either A) Your walling on your chosen FSB strap or B) RAM wont go further.
 
Ok now I really feel cheap-shotted. I got a E7200 thinking it should do 4GHz reasonably comfortable and here I am not able to get it stable over 3.6GHz even tho it'll boot windows @ 3.85 :mad:
 
Mine won't stay stable at 3.5 had to take it back to 3.4 for it to stabilise its self : (
 
Got my Q9550 today!!! The ASUS Maximus II Formula comes in tomorrow with my ram and vista. Thursday or friday im getting the EVGA GTX 260 Core 216 55nm card... another 4gb of ram and a Coolermaster V8! Man... this weekend is going to rock! Im painting my new ANTEC 900 today.

Jr.. if your wondering.. I sold my whole PC today for 1250$ and im spending maybe 675$ I told the guy that he cannot get it untill i get ALL my new stuff in from newegg. lols (im not going w/out a pc)

I will post pics of the new build soon.. Ima start a worklog of the new build tonite, so everyone can see my progress and what im doing to the case :D

Just a little update, managed to get it to 3.55GHz now (322FSB). I'm chuckling at how it won't originally work, leave it a few days then try again. I ran through SuperPi last night when at 321 and I shaved off a little it of time but nothing amazing. Still, lookin' good.

:D
 
WOO!

Worklog!

What volts you running to get that?
 
1.368 in the BIOS which is 1.344 within CPU-Z.
 
Thanks, I wonder what is holding back mine so much?
 
man... sure do miss benching with you guys. My new toys have been keeping me busy lately! Just wanted to tell you guys that I will still keep up with the thread updates when new benches are posted :D Keep those puppy's push'n the max!
 
^^

Unfortunately I've hit a wall again and since installing the 9.3 Cat drivers I can't seem to get much stable. I have however found that my max FSB is around 320 - seeing how far I can go on on 1.24volts now.
