best amd athlon 64 3500+ oc

ya but everybody over there seems to. looking at there systems and cooling setups.

you should somehow mess with the ddr ram. I don't know how so maybe somebody can help you with that.

 

[lancec2c30]

well, check your ram's voltage max. usually 2.8 is it for ddr. I have mine at 2.7, I think i might drop it to 2.6 and see how it fares.

and then try relaxing the timings or bring down the mhz. so it runs closer to ddr400.

If that doesnt wrok then you will need to put in a divider.

 

[AmdFanboy]

what is a divider? do you buy it?

Yeah,Just go to your local comp shop and ask,They should be more than happy to sell you one

I got my 3500 running at 2.52 stable at around 53 under 100 percent load.

Double-post

Athlon 3500's run pretty nicely. That must've been hard to get it up to 2.52Ghz. Was that using Water-Cooling?

Venice's are one of the best oc'ing cpu's,They can usually reach 2.7 without upping the voltage so it dosen't take much to cool them,I've got my 3000+ running 2.6Ghz right now and all i'm using is a Freezer 64 pro and idle temp's are 32*c,That's a 800mhz jump without doing much of anything

(just have to change my sig now)
