Cannibal Corpse Posted April 18, 2007 Posted April 18, 2007 Cool, thanks! CCCP reports that the CPU is not stable, even though I pass MemTest86+ and SuperPI 32MB tests, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I can lower my CPU speed, but I need to know why SuperPI and Memtest86+ didn't report any errors when I have my CPU at 2.95GHz? Do you think it is the CPU or RAM that is causing the errors?

Thanks! Decent stability testing programs like OCCT, Prime 95, Stress Prime 2004, Hot CPU etc load your system up properly to give you the best chance of finding errors rather than the likes of Super PI that is really just a benchmark tool used to measure the speed of your rig rather than how good/stable it is. Memtest is a good indicator that your RAM is good but it is quite well known that settings that test good 24 hours + in memtest can fail to boot into windows. You should use a decent stability tester to check your rig once in windows. I would say its the CPU giving you the errors as they go away when you back the overclock off. You can use Stress Prime 2004 to test either the RAM the CPU or both together. Regards Craig. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wevsspot Posted April 20, 2007 Posted April 20, 2007 At 1.56 vcore you are surely at the limit of even great air cooling. Your best bet is to start backing down your cpu frequency just a bit until you can get stability at 1.56 vcore or less. And, even though Chump doesn't have a ton of posts, I've been following all of his o/c work on Intel cpu's, and he really has a knack for overclocking. I'd take his advice anytime.

Cannibal Corpse Posted April 21, 2007 Posted April 21, 2007 Thanks. Actually my mission is over: Stable at 2.85GHz and 237MHz for my RAM. Thanks again! I really appreciate it all! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
