E5200 OC/BenchMark Thread.(56k warning)

I just got my new build up and running with an e5200. I only have the stock cooler so Im just going to push it to about 3 ghz and that's fine with me. Btw is there something to look for to see if you have an R0 chip? I got my chip from newegg and it had a pack date of 1-23-09 I think, so it's pretty recent.


edit-I just ran CPU-Z and I have M0

I wanted to be special :(

Yup, R0's I beleive dont hit "shelves" until April.

Welcome to TPU! :)
 
Thanks, Im just overall impressed with this CPU, it doesn't have the cache of its older brothers but I upgraded from a P4. So it's still a huge increase.
 
I can just imagine, I came from an e1200 . An even more minimal bump than what you had experienced. I'll say it again, I keep mine locked at 3.5Ghz 1.4v 24/7.
 
Ive recommended this CPU to 2 friends so far and each of them got them to 3.4ghz stable first attempt with no vcore adjustments. Amazing.
 
Lets spice things up a bit

Im not sure but I think this is the spi WR on air.

Unfortunately the chip died but not on an oc session.
 
Anyone got an ideas as to why my voltages are lower then what I set them too in the Bios?
 
Well I built my rig last night. Obviously I couldn't wait, I'm pretty pleased so far - I haven't actually managed to sort anything as of yet, which I'll do tonight but so fair I checked CPU-Z and with everything at stock, my vCore was 1.0125 when it was running at 2.6GHz (800MHz FSB) can't wait to get this mother up and running.

:rockout:
 
:(

I can't seem to get my rig to boot with these settings...

... what am I doing wrong?

Bring up your CPU voltage. ;)
 
my 5200 doesnt like the FSB strap.. so maybe you should leave it at auto.
 
Hey all

First post on this forum :)
Just got a e 5300 today and its a RO stepping will post results later.
 
SWEET!

Don't forget to fill in your System Specification.

Welcome to the forums!

Oh no way!!! Definitely give us some cool screenshots. My prediction = R0 is a 4Ghz 24/7 stable.
 
I freaking hope so. I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. I've been browsing the ASUS forums all morning (in between customer support) and I'm about to make a post now. See what people say...

:(
 
See what the 11.5 multi will do for you. Oh and your CPU GTL's, try 0.63.
 
I've tried my multi at 10 with the same settings... nuffin'! I'll definitely try the GTL at 0.63 though.
 
Hey all

Currently in testing phase still, just seeing what it can do, is game stable at this atm, will test more.

I haven't been able to get past 210FSB. Really disappointed.

Go for 5 Ghz :D

I some how don`t think it is the cpu. If it is the worst E5200 ever.

When applying Bios overclock settings powerdown PC completely and powerup again.
And why DDR3 why ?

I missed this post :D. 4 GHz at 1.344V and stable wow. And if it scale well with voltage increase I think it will match or even surpass my CPU :toast:
 
My PC does power down completely when applying new BIOS settings (especially OC) but it won't resume, I have to hit reset and then go back to default or my current stable OC which is 2.74GHz.

I really have no idea what I'm missing.

That is what I`m talking about. You power down the PC manually if it is needed take out power cable from PSU. On some boards I have noticed that when applying CPU and MEM OC at once and specially if you do big jump that the first time is needed to do that.
