3700 Clawhammer Max temp?

[Oclock]

Hi ive been getting some pretty good clocks out of my 3700 at 230 * 12 113% voltage. Smartguardian says my cpu is 39 and my hs probe is given me about 27. I wanna try and put more volts in it and see if i can go any higher but im not sure what i should limit the temps to. Maybe a water cooling system is in my near future. Suggestions on parts/kits?

why so low of voltage now 1.3v? my stock is 1.5v and my temps are 33 idle 40 load

Well I dont have that cpu but your safe up to or around 50c well most people stay around there

The average consensus seems to be right around 1.75 volts on air and a little more on water. Still haven't found anyone that has killed a Clawhammer running over 1.75.

 

My newcastle is the same core as your hammer and it hasn't seen less than 1.7 in over 6 months, hasn't become voltage dependant as it will still run stock speeds at 1.4v. Until It gives me some kind of a problem I won't know how voltage effects it.

1.3 X 113%, that puts you at 1.6 so pay attention. When you use these voltages

you don't get a second to check. It doesn't smoke, it just turns to ash.

 

I took the IHS off my FX-53and went to 1.75Vcore and I'm still using it. Didn't get any extra though, my OC didn't improve at all.

im running my clawhammer fx-55 @[email protected], you mean that I could go to 1.7 without worries of frying it ? max load temp now are around 44c.

 

thanks
