Presler @ 6.2GHz stable!!!
Forum Overclocking : CPUs - Presler @ 6.2GHz stable!!!
I just got my computer finished and decided how far I could take it, so I upped the voltage, multiplier a little and FSB ALOT this was the configuration that I found the absolute best for OCing.
screen of cpu-z
my rig:
Gigabyte GA-8N-SLI Quad Royal
Pentium 955 Extreme Edition
4 gigs of Ballistix pc 8000
2 7900 GTX's in SLI (not 4 yet...)
I-RAM in RAID0 (6gigs)
500 gig storage drive
Prometeia Mach II GT cooler (very cool I might add, no pun intended 
)
I wasn't sure if that was the fastest that it has ever been taken or not, the nestbest that I saw was at about 5 GHz...
anyway, I thought it was vaer good all the same and I going to post the benchmarks when I get them, probably tomorrow (if they will even run at this speed...)[/img]
*drool*
post some benchmarks. that's a sick overclock. 
Super awesome man! Show some benchmarks if/when able. Hope it continues to run well for ya. What's the idle temp now?
...Wow I can't believe I'm raving over an Intel 
:? :x 
Perhaps I'm not an AMD fanboy after all!
Hmm...400th post. I'm now a TGForumz addict :!:

Wow...are you like a millionare or something? How in the world can you afford that rig???
Wow, that's pretty sick dude! Nice job!
I bet that thing is super fast. Please keep us posted as to how stable it is and possible benchmarks. 
Oh $hit!!! 
Unbelievable! Congrats!
Wish I had a proc that could do that...
Sweet! It must be a beast!

No actually, it is not cpu-z varified. To that you upload it to their site or something. Then you provide a link to your verified information. That picture could have been done in photoshop.
Yep, it's very easy to verify. Although, I'm in a good mood at the moment and won't be 100% skeptical.
Nice OC sallad. Congratulations! Now the test is to see if it'll run stable.
Agreed, thats a huge overclock for a 1.3-1.5v mod, and the FSB is waaaaay high, I dont know of many mobos and chipsets that could cope with that 
CPU-Z verification please, if you do I'll eat my words
your the man Nice one.
In your face ..............
Would like to see some benckmarks.
Not a static screen shot.
where do I go to send it in to get it verified???
sorry, im a bit of a noob at this whole "verification thing", I usualy just OC to entereain myself, but this was so awsome that I had to post it somewhere...
BTW, whoever said that that was a pretty sick OC @ 1.5 volts is absolutly right, mostly because it is not actually at 1.5 volts... I don't know if anybody else has had this problem with cpu-z before, but it never gives the right voltage (I think it is about 1.75v right now, HUGE DIFFERENCE) could barley even hit much past 5GHz with 1.5v.
I ran superPI last night just after I posted, but it crashed sometime even earlier in the morning than it actually is right now (still too early). I'm going to try to up the voltage a little more and see if it is more stalbe and leave it running while I'm at school(the only reason I'm up right now 
)
I ment to say "to entertain myself" not that that wasn't obvious or anything... 
like any sane 16-year old would.... their parents OH YEAH!!!!
who needs a job when you can syphon all the money you want from your parents?
That's not fair. My parents don't even pay for some of my clothes. If I had a computer like yours, and fried the CPU by OC'ing too high, the ambulance would have to come with a sponge .
Nice oc, nice cpu and nice cooling!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O 8O
Did you check to see if the cpu is red hot.
| Quote : I figured out where you are supposed to verify it... that whole "verify" button on cpu-z does the trick (feeling like an idiot) I'm at school right now, so I cant get the results uploaded until about 2:00... |
Since everyone here is in different timezones...well when is 2:00? Central? Mountain? Pacific? Eastern?
Sorry I'm impatient Funny thing is I don't get money from my parents, but living with them and having a full-time job (paying no rent!) certainly helps!
Eastern, sorry
ChipDeath, I don't think that that is at all likely, because when my parents die (not to say that I want them to), I'll get all their money and spend it how I want and I dont think I could find many ways to spend it all in my lifetime...
Otherwise I might just consider doing work, but that takes away from my video game time (and that is no fun).

I didn't mean it to be rude at all, I'm just saying that I probably won't find a way to outspend my means, but I don't just want to sit on my butt all day and play games, so I'm probably going to get a job and "earn" money too... |
Welcome to the "real" world, dude . I'm 14, and I had to earn all the money that I have. I babysat my little brother and sister (8 and 10 yrs old) for almost 2 months (never doing that again ) to earn the $$ to buy my iPod Nano.

OH YEA?! Well I had to pimp an Intel out to pay for my rig...o.O And no, I don't mean "make it look good"

Unfortunate turn of phrase... but you seem to have the general idea right
I'll be overclocking to 287 soon! Haha... OP, nice job on the ill-gotten stupid-GHz. Must be toasty.
I'm starting to get some "stability issues" with it clocked so high, so im going to try some more cooling... (I can't get it past 5.8 GHz without it almost instantly crashing) but I will hopefully have all of this benchmarking/verifying stuff by this weekend then I've got spring break yaaaaaay!!! so I will have more time to push this thing further (if it will go). Sorry for not having benchmarks posted yet .
If it almost instantly crashes anything past 5.8 Ghz, then how did you get it at 6.2 Ghz long enough to take a screen shot?

ouch... good point...

Lucky you; you got early spring break . Try putting it in the freezer, and then maybe you won't have stability issues. Just a thought.
