OCFreak Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Who has the top OC for stock fan on a 955? I picked one up yesterday to use in my video editing machine, and I am running it at 4.008GHz @ 1.425V. So far I have been running Prime95 for the last 30mins and temps are running around 58 degrees. This is in an Antec 300 with the two 120mm fans running on medium speed. I had always heard that many people were not getting 4GHz out of this processor without water or a better air setup. Perhaps I got lucky with a stable chip? What other stress tests can I run to ensure that what I have is stable? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As this is linpack driven it will produce considerably higher temps than prime95. Suggest you watch very carefully and bail at 60c.

OCFreak Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 Yes, just a raised multiplier. Memory and NB are running at stock speeds. I will give OCCT a go, and see what I get. I have a Noctua NH-D14 cooler coming next week as well, which will certainly help with temps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCFreak Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 That is my concern, but so far it is stable, 4 hours in Prime95. I am going to do a 6hr test in it, then head to OCCT. I am running it at 1.425v currently, but I have a feeling that I am going to have to pump it up a bit. I am aiming for 4.1GHz ... we shall see!

joel.monteiro Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 Damn,he newer processor are amazing,my load temp on stock were like 75c,with stock cooler. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCFreak Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 They also changed the stock fans as well, so you may have the older version. I am actually quite impressed with the fan and HS setup that it comes with, it's just loud as heck when controlled manually appropriately.

You should SuperPI that and submit to the fastest overclocks thread, especially after the D14 gets in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joel.monteiro Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 Cant do that now,my temps are great,at full load i get like 50 on all cores @ 3 gigz but im using a crap mobo just bsods,since my old 790gx mobo died. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
