cooling.. cooling and more cooling.. = lots of oc :)


Recommended Posts

first I would like to say.. thanks dfi-street.. everyone on here is great.. very knowledgable.. I've learned so much about overclocking since I needed to be brought up to speed from my last Celeron 300A overcloking :) hehe .. this board is great.. thanks to everyone.. especially rgone, angry games, and others.

 

wow.. i had fallen in love with overclocking and cooling this machine.. i'll have some pics posted up soon.. because it looks pretty damn cool.

 

so I had it running at 233mhz FSB x 11 multiplier @ 1.875vcore doing 45 idle and 50 load. Memory is kingston hyperx pc3700 2x256mb, and I had that with the 233mhz @ 3.3vdimm with timings of 2.5-3-3-3-10 (.. i tried 2.5-2-2-2-11 but system wouldn't post, not sure how to play with these settings..need to find out more)..

 

I do have a question.. What else should I cool? I just ordered some small ocz heatsinks and I want to cool some more stuff on the board.. I had the NB heatsink on the SB (had to cut some pins off cause it wouldn't fit with the vga silencer)..

 

What are some other places on the board where I can toss some heatsinks on to keep things cool?

:D man, I think there are two or three posts I have seen over the last 4 months that had titles like> UltraInfinity "hotspots" or titles like that. I think one guy had the infra-red pics or I am confusing that with the NF7. But I guess what I am trying to say is that in threads on the net and maybe not in this forum yet>there are some good descriptive pics if you can google them up.

 

I have seen some 'word' descriptions in this forum but I am not sure about the pics. See if search brings to surface some new one's because I have heard of a couple of new spots guys are thinking to cool now.

 

Good luck man and have fun. Sincerely, RGone...1
