Safe voltages for 3500+

[sosone]

:shake:

Can't get over 2800.I'am running at 2750,10*275.It's 100% stable,htt*4,mem.

458_2-2-2-5,chipset-1.50v,ldt-1.40v.mem.-2.90.Temps.cpu(idle 25-27c,full load

35-40c,northbridge 42c.memory not to hot,blowing vents from the side)

Now,if i increase fsb to 280 system boots at 1.67,but is not stable on 1.81v.I have also increased ldt,northbridge voltages for 0.1v,still unstable.

Is this just my cpu that needs over 1.81v.to work,or i reached highest oc.

with this cpu.Which are safe maximum voltages for this cpu(closest),and for this memory(read on geil site,3.30-3.90v.for 500 2.5-3-3-7).Thanks guys. :shake:

there is no single SAFE value for voltage besides stock volts. As you go up ur risk of failure goes up. the max is an iffy issue. some will say 1.6v on air, 1.7v on water and what not but really its all up to you.

 

in the end its ur money and if the cpu fries it fries. not the end of the world really.

 

but on a side note, i ran my 3200 at 1.82v 24/7 which kept me 100% stable at 3ghz. i even ran that sucker all the way up to 1.9 once just to see how high she would clock but i wasnt about to leave it that high.

 

of course i want to point out that im on phase so even w/ the high voltage my temps were always good. and obviously i understood the risk i was taking.

 

soo....do what ya gotta do to hit the clocks you want....and enjoy it....

id never go above 1.6 24/7 and id use 1.65 temporarily. despite the cooling.

the only thing i can suggerst to you if u is put your ltd/fsb at 3x instead of 4x ur at 275x4=1100 ... basically u dont want to go over 1000

so drop it to 3x ..that might get you to 2.8ghz , also use 1.65v as your max (in my opinion) do wut ever you want tho . but personally i dont go over 1.65 usually 1.6 24/7

and another thing to suggest is better cooling if none of those dont work . personally 2.7ghz was the max on my 3000+ venice and that is very similar to yours.

good luck and please lower that vcore before it fails :0

Hi,

you have a nice overclock :nod: . 2.75/2.8GHz is not very usual for a 3500+ Venice.

Your voltage is very high, even 1.6xV (measured via dmm or bios?); this board overvolts under load.

Thanks guys.So 3000+,3200+venice is better made cpu than 3500+venice,although a lot cheaper.And Gipse, tell me please yours htt*,ldt v. and northbridge v.Thanks.

thats not tru....its all luck when it comes to which ones are gonna clock nice and what not. 3000 and 3200 might be better bang for ur buck though....

 

i hit a wall in the 2700s w/ my 3200 when it was on air and around 1.65v.

Hi,

you can find my bios settings here: http://www.dfi-street.com/forum/showthread...33&page=2&pp=15

Please ask me if something is missing

Thanks,and Gipse,excuse me but, there isnt ldt ,htt* and chipset volts.Thanks.
