My latest score (via my latest overclock experiments)
My latest score & stability (via ScienceMark 2.0) is as follows, having switched from using an 11x multiplier X 249mhz FSB to 12x multiplier X 231mhz FSB):
CPU-z 1.35 CPU-mhz data (~2773mhz - a 373mhz overdriven gain):
CPU-z 1.35 RAM-mhz data (~185/200mhz - a "ROI" of 93%):
(This is w/ out setting my BIOS memory setting of RAS Precharge to 2, it is still 3 here but I used the older photo of it when I had it @ 2T for a test of what memory settings I can/could play with to try "tighten" them some more still yet)
ScienceMark 2.0 score (increased from 1392 -> 1401.11 (my highest yet on 12x multiplier thusfar, & even almost beating my old mark of 1401.20 done on 11.5x "Fractional" & frowned upon multipliers + higher FSB @ 249mhz)):
My BIOS data for overclocking used:
LDT DATA:
CPU HTT Frequency = 4x
DRAM CONFIGURATION:
CAS# Latency Tcl = 2
Min RAS# Active Time Tras = 5T
RAS# to CAS# Delay Trcl = 3T
Row Precharge Time Trp = 3T
Row Cycle Time Trc = 10T
Row Refresh Cycle Time Trk = 13T
Read to Write Trwt = 3T
Write Recovery Time = 3T
1t/2t = 1t
JUMPER FREE CONFIGURATION DATA:
O/C Profile = Manual
CPU Frequency = 231mhz
PCI Clock = 100mhz
DDR Voltage = AUTO (cannot do over 2.6v on my RAM, tried it already 2x)
Chipset Voltage = 1.6V (max)
HT Voltage = 1.25V (max)
CPU Mult = 12x
CPU Volt = 1.5V (max)
* That is about as good as I can get it... & WITHOUT using "Fractional Multipliers" as I did to bat off the 1401.20 I got using that...
I can change 1 more setting in my "Ram Memory timing-chain" #'s down a notch (RAS Precharge 2T down 1 from 3T) that I know of, & don't "bsod" but, I haven't passed it thru the ScienceMark 2.0 test yet (it is a good test of stability here, especially for MEMORY imo!)
APK
P.S.=> I don't know about "kicking" cdawall from the tests, but cheating on this stuff is really ONLY CHEATING YOURSELF!
If you do cheat it, you don't really get a GOOD IDEA of what your system can do by cheating on this test imo @ least, & thus only burn yourself... after all, there is ALWAYS some system that will beat yours in SOME capacity, if not this test, it will in others.
This I already know!
E.G. -> the Opteron 165 s939 CPU's "get the better of mine" here, batting scores like 1447 & 1500++ even already done by others here!
I.E.-> The idea for me in this test is to achieve the MOST STABLE o/c I can in this heatwave, so I hit a "perfect" year-round mark to set it @!
If it can stay stable & pass this test in this heat? It will FLY in the winter & it's colder ambient surrounding temps! apk
