HIT 4GHZ ON ONE CORE, STOCK COOLER!!!!!!!

new PSU - Corsair GS600!!!

YautjaLord · Oct 11, 2011

600Watt? And what about the last 3 cores? But 4.0GHz with 1.392v CPU voltage still impressive. Congrats on PSU & OC. :toast:

de.das.dude · Oct 12, 2011

with four cores i cant get past 3.4 stable, so im trying to find out the lemon by OCing each core separately. (also going higher makes the CPU really hot, its a stock cooler after all and my ambients are >30C

what about the 600Watts?

i got 3.9GHz stable on first 2 cores. will try the others.

i also suspect there is something wrong with my mobo, after i RMA'd it. it cant handle 3.6GHz. previously on my original mobo, i used to get 3.6GHz stable easily.

Way more advanced than me Das...here's where I'm at:

It is your mobo. It cannot supply enough power for all of your cores.

should i RMA this bitch then?

third core is a bit of a lemon. wont boot at 3.9

I would say go with a higher clock on 4 cores. I would try bring down your ht link, I wasn't getting past 3.4 too, then I brought down the ht and I can get to 3.8 stable. I can't get to 4ghz stable though...

de.das.dude · Oct 12, 2011

my HT is always at 2000. that was an accident. i got overexcited after looking at the 4ghz LOL.

actually as it turns out, my 3rd and fourth core are lemons. can get them to go a little high.

2Triple D:

Change to something of 990FX/X flavor; supports both current Phenom II's & future Piledriver CPUs (possibly with BIOS update in case of later); M5A99X will probably suit you just fine & won't rob you that much.

Played with CPU-to-NB frequencies? I don't remember which one to leave @ 2000MHz & which one to raise to 2400/2600MHz but try plus play with VDDA; again, switch to 990X-based mobo once/if you can afford it. :toast:

are you mad bro?
i had to borrow money to pay for my corsair gs600!

YautjaLord · Oct 12, 2011

Oops, my bad. Forget i mentioned this in 1st place. Guess the whole "gettin-ready-for-Dozer" s*** affected me that much; good luck with what you got so far. May the power of Pred's skull ripping hand be with you. :laugh:

Jokes aside: borrowed? Great purchase than & congrats with your current OC. Good luck. :toast:

Even myself, I found this out the hard way from my old 790x board.

@Kevin

Not true, sometimes you have to try something new, the 1:1 NB:HT Link overclock can potentially be more stable on some boards than others.

Velvet Wafer · Oct 12, 2011

YautjaLord said:

Piledriver is Socket FM2, if im correct. a 990 Board will never support them, due to physical incompabilities

JrRacinFan · Oct 12, 2011

Velvet Wafer said:

Sorry to say ... http://www.nordichardware.com/news/69-cpu-chipset/44317-amd-piledriver-10-faster-than-bulldozer.html

Really really hate to correct you VW. :ohwell:

Velvet Wafer · Oct 12, 2011

JrRacinFan said:

You dont have to be sorry at all, thats great news for me! Means AMD didnt starts the Socket Madness, like Intel does. About a month ago, things were looking like AMD wanted to go FM Sockets for all their procs

de.das.dude · Oct 12, 2011

doesnt pile driver come in integrated GPU flavors as well?

EDIT: my bad, that was trinity devastator.

cdawall · Oct 13, 2011

erocker said:

It could be the mobo. It could also be a bad chip or considering the stock cooler not enough cooling power for 4ghz on all 4 cores. These chips still scale with temps heavily.

eidairaman1 · Oct 13, 2011

Velvet Wafer said:

Piledriver should be the last AM3+ Chip released, but it will be in FM2 aswell

Velvet Wafer · Oct 13, 2011

eidairaman1 said:

I thought, Komodo was scrapped?

ChaoticAtmosphere · Oct 13, 2011

Velvet Wafer said:

Yes I'm so glad AMD is keeping the physical characteristics of the sockets across AM2 to AM3+ as well as the "rumoured" piledriver. I would love the Bulldozer but I must wait for Asus to release a bios update to make my new board AM3+ compatible. :cool:

erocker · Oct 13, 2011

de.das.dude said:

Nah, you need a better motherboard, not a new identical board.

cdawall · Oct 13, 2011

erocker said:

If he is doing it core by core and the 3rd core will not hit 3.9ghz stable it is not the board.

erocker · Oct 13, 2011

cdawall said:

The 3.9ghz core isn't his limitation. He can't get past 3.4ghz with all cores enabled. Yes, I know some 4+1 phase boards can do it easily, his particular board uses not so good VRM's and chokes to begin with. It's the board.

ChaoticAtmosphere · Oct 13, 2011

de.das.dude said:

I say take that 3rd core and make some lemonade, spike it with some vodka, sit back, relax and don't worry because worrying is like paying interest on a debt that you may never have owed. :laugh:

(Or you can make a battery with it to power a miniature light bulb

)

erocker said:

Oh i know its a weak board however he has a weak chip sitting in it. I have a feeling on any board with any normal air cooler it will not do over 3.6-3.8
