E5200 OC/BenchMark Thread.(56k warning)

[JrRacinFan]

after disabling the C1E & EIST .. the voltage still show as 1.088 in windows instead of 1.250 (as per BIOS) .. what do you suggest ??

Thats quite a large droop. Really have no suggestions, jusst keep her cool n quiet. Enjoy!

 

[pantherx12]

I got 25 mhz more !

ha ha

I was aiming more much higher, I put all my voltages suicide high but to no avail

There is a setting to improve vdroop but I can't remember the name, should be at the bottom somewhere of the over clock settings.

that is strange, i'm using the same motherboard and getting much less droop

BIOS' are usually a little out - with mine set to 1.368 in the BIOS, Windows states 1.344 - it's annoying and something you would have thought manufacturers would be able to fix. Common issue, not much you can do really. Look for the latest BIOS for your board, if that doesn't help, record the values when in Windows and make a table for yourself so that you can use it as a quick reference if you ever need it at a later date.

In any case, the voltage value set in BIOS will be the accurate one right?

I wonder is it possible cause by the OS (Windows XP SP3)? Cause either i set the voltage value as 1.3125 or 1.2500 in BIOS, the value shows in CPU-Z is still remain no change at 1.088.

I will try to play with other voltage value and see what is the reading in CPU-Z. Thanks!

Medros, do you mind to provide details of your OC? May be i can duplicate your setting and test again. Thanks in advance!

update !

4.2 ghz

Crazy voltages though, won't take it further with this cooler. ( check the CPU temp in the bottom right! That is not even the core temps D: )

GOOD SPEED!!! but i guess @ 1.72V, the power efficiency might not be optimum though

Ha ha got that right, was way to hot too, computer crashed running super pi 1 million.

3.3 is my 24/7 over clock @1.36 volts

 

[JrRacinFan]

That is totally nuts panther!!!

And I thought I had b***s of steel when I pushed 1.61 through my e52. You deserve high praise for havin some cajones.

Ha ha, thank you, I knew it would be fine if I done everything quickly!


JR, I'm just behind you on CPU speed and Super pi speed now, its so tempting to push it just that little bit further but I already think I have got to cocky with the voltages he he.

 

[JrRacinFan]

See how far the 12.5x multi takes you.

 

[pantherx12]

I'll try to at least match you, but I will save that for tomorrow going to relax with some Doom 3 for now!

I'm sure you could crack out ever so slightly more too.

It would take me to crunch on the P35 some more with the water loop thats on the way. Too make work for such little gain. If you can post a Memset screenie I can take a look if yah want.

OK I have said it before.. but this time its fosho.. I am updating new scores tonite! It would meke me very happy and make it very easy if the people who have new scores to be updated, to go ahead and re-post the scores that you want to be added..

Like this---- _jM E5200@4.27Ghz- 12.868sec (superpi) or what ever it is,That way I dont need to search the thread for all the new scores. Thanks guys!

 

[Medros]

Medros, do you mind to provide details of your OC? May be i can duplicate your setting and test again. Thanks in advance!

Currently have mine set up with 250 mhz bus speed, and 12.5x multiplier at stock voltage for 3.125ghz (if i push it any farther get in the upper 60's under full load)

are you using stock cooler as well?? mind to share your spec?

my temp is like 10 C higher than yours under full load using Prime95 @ 3.0 GHz (240 * 12.5) ..

i think it has something to do with the typically hot weather over here .. able to pull the temp down by about 5 C if i turn on air condition @ 24 C

I am looking at this Cooler Master Hyper TX2 Heatsink, and might get my hand on 1 if i can get good price at PC fair here during the weekend

i'm still using my stock cooler as well, although it is in an antec 300, so 2 large fans pulling air away, and have the cpu fan to stay at 100%
also, removed the thermal pad from the cooler and lapped/used artic silver 5 so possibly a degree or two improvement from that

total system just in case something else that i'm not seeing is a factor:
cpu- e5200 oc'd to 3.125
motherboard- gigabyte G31m-Es2l
memory- 4gb ocz fatal1ty pc2 6400
psu- antec earthwatts 500w
hdd- hitachi 1tb SATA
dvd- external
video card- geforce 8800gs

Medros, again thank you very much for the sharing, very much appreciated.

I guess the good air ventilation of Antec 300 does help a lot in reducing temp (i never see any Antec casing around here though).

My idle temp is still always at 52 C and peak temp at 72 C, running at 3.4 GHz now (272 * 12.5, stock voltage of 1.25V in BIOS) Btw, i fixed the big variance of voltage between BIOS and CPU-Z after updating BIOS again, variance is about 0.05V now (thanks to Innocent!!!)

I will try to look for CPU cooler with good price, and also may be mod the casing to improve air ventilation, will do that during the weekend



***Just curious to know, how bad will idle temp of 52 C and peak temp of 72 C impact the lifespan of my E5200??

Whats the VID for your CPU in Core Temp?

 

[JrRacinFan]

Heya torrent,

Another quick tip, if you dont use Realtemp, download it and try it out. I have a feeling those temps you are reporting are false. The lifespan of the cpu will be shortened but by the time that it happens to die odds are you have moved onto a different setup.

Thanks JR! Yes, i use Real Temp 3.00. (TJ Max set to 100) temp reading is identical with that of Core Temp and Everest.

I am running at 3.4GHz (1.25V), and seems like OC does not affect the temp much. So i guess the biggest problem is the poor air ventilation inside case, and also the CPU cooler.

Will try to do some mod to the case during weekend, might clean and reapply the stock CPU cooler as well and see if it help

I need 1.38 volts in CPUZ for 3.3ghz

Panther, as you can see from the screenshot, my CPu-Z voltage is at 1.20V (0.05V lower than the voltage i set in BIOS). and i set +0.1V for DDR2 and +0.1V for FSB.

!

You may be able to get an impressive over clock if you can have voltages that low for that speed.
