cybersimo Posted October 29, 2005 Posted October 29, 2005 I am trying to overclock the CPU from my sig. I have set these: CPU STARTUP VID: 1.425 CPU VID: 1.425 CPU SPECIAL: VID*113% I have idle temp 36 C in Windows, but after I run Prime 95 after a few minutes it reaches 65 C and the system switches off, because as stated ot the AMD site my CPU has a max temp. of 65 C and I put in BIOS System Shutdown temp: 65 C Is it OK to go beyond that temp?

davidhammock200 Posted October 29, 2005 Posted October 29, 2005 You need/want to keep the CPU under 50C at load, that is easy with a XP-90, but given where you live, I have no idea as to what is available. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_Sz Posted October 29, 2005 Posted October 29, 2005 Dude, get a new power suplly, might as well get a new chip since I would think that one is probably damaged from the heat, depends on how long it was over 50*. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My man I´ve got my 3000+ @ 2,8GHz on 1,5v so this is too much power for start. BTW: my goes at 2,0GHz on just 1,1v prime stabile, and for 2,4GHz only 1,2v I have SonicTower too and my temp is never above 40-45°C when I run my at 2,8GHz at 1,5v Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow that's helpful. What are your temps with stock speed/voltage? Do you have any airflow in your case? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
