HeskyR32 Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 even when the cpu power mosfets are rated at a constant 125C and dont thermally shut down till 150C sumit? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdelong Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 new 165 CCBWE 0551 UPMW slapped in tonight. Almost as good as my 170 so far!! 2.75Ghz, 1.52v, 42C dual prime loaded. More testing to come. It will boot 2850mhz and run super Pi, but core 1 fails prime:( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
racinjimy Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 Hi guys, I've been overclocking my new 170 opty and things seem to be going very well, at stock volts it manages a stable 2.8ghz with nice low temps. If I feed it around 1.45 volts it will clock to 3ghz but when I dual prime my PWMIC temps double to around 70C! I let it go for an hour but it hit 74C so I wimped out and stopped prime.Am I just being a total wimp? Is this temp fine?? Cheers she needs better cooling captain, I can't hold her together much longer dammit scotty, i just need 0.05 more volts seriously just put a fan over the PWMIC area, then you should be golden Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeskyR32 Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 doh, not another fan! seriously though does anyone have any info that says 60-70 is to much?? I did a quick bit of research on the temp range of these pulse width modulators controller ICs (PWMIC). They seem to range from a max of 85C all the way up to 125C. Does anyone know what PWMs the Ultra-D uses? They sound like they are far more durable than most people think. some guy on this forum says 110C??

Grinch Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 if you were going to choose between a 165 and 170 which would you buy? at this point in time? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixtapalapaquetl Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 does anyone have any info that says 60-70 is to much??In terms of safety, it has been widely reported that these temps will not cause damage to your components. However, it has also been reported that increased PWMIC temps can decrease stability. If I were you, I would find my max overclock as is. Then put a fat fan over the area and see if you get any more speed. If you do, you have a decision to make, otherwise, you're fine.

Voltes-5 Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 if you were going to choose between a 165 and 170 which would you buy? at this point in time? 165, the one I killed, in my own error, got it up to 2835. IMHO its on par with the 170 then used the saved $ on better rams. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't want to put a fan over it get an old mobo then scavenge for any aluminum mosfet coolers or similar to that effect. I did and added them on my SLI-DR and the temp came to an average of 8-10 degrees. I stuck them with a bit of super glue and put a dab of AS5 on them.

gokalper Posted February 9, 2006 Posted February 9, 2006 jrauger what is your ram timings?? and drive strength at 300fsb, i assume you use 1:1 ratio? More details the better.. thanx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
