Excidium00 Posted January 28, 2010 Posted January 28, 2010 (edited) Well, I hit 4.4 on my 920, volts don't look too shabby. Here's the validation: http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=981474 I think I need to knock the RAM timings down a little bit to keep going because it doesn't like to run SuperPi 32m. I'm looking at some DDR3-2000 kits so I can raise my Bclk more. Should I try for 4.5 or 4.6 on air? Temps are going to around 60c or so if I remember correctly under Prime95. Also, any recommendations for some DDR3-2000 kits? I've been trying to find some Hyper kits without spending 450 bucks.

Excidium00 Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 That's pretty awesome. I had to bump the voltage up a bit to make it stable at 4.4GHz. I'm gonna take a look at it today, see if I can get closer to 4.5Ghz. I was also gonna try to lower the multi to 19 and go for a higher Bclk and see how far my Gene can go.

dling Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 I didn't know that you could X21 multiplyer on a 920 chip other then then the turbo mode. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dling Posted January 29, 2010 Posted January 29, 2010 Do you think the your ability to get those speeds is the motherboard or the processor ? I cant seem to get past 4.08 with my 920 DO stepping cpu. :angry2: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant seem to get past 4.08 with my 920 DO stepping cpu. :angry2: All cpus are different some clock good some dont, I can take one of my good clockers and stick it on a cheap motherboard and it makes that motherboard look great, on the other hand I can put a bad clocker on the classified and make it look like crap. You may go through about a dozen cpus just trying to find a decent one, buy and sell is the answer if you just have to have a good one...

Excidium00 Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 You gotta force it to hold that 21x multi in the BIOS. I forget how exactly to do it. I'm pretty sure my RIIG is making my chip look good, but it could just be a good match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
road-runner Posted January 30, 2010 Posted January 30, 2010 A quality board helps dont get me wrong, but I have put a decent cpu in a cheap board and it overclocked like hell also... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
