Official Intel Overclocking thread

[nOcLuE98]

Mine runs same temps. 55c is normal with a lapped TRUE 120. Highest I have had was 60c @ 3.725GHz with room temp @ 73f. Hard to beat a good lap job and the TRUE.

that is awesome. man, I cant wait to order my e8400 and see how high I can get that thing. I guess I am gonna order a TRUE soon..

hey IBM, 50hours of stress testing isnt stable enough....
i think this thread is meant for propper stable overclocks.
try testing for about 6-12, or more hours.

Amount of stress testing isn't what I am too concerned in, what I do care about is if your run the settings 24/7 or not...

Don't you mean 50 minutes

I've been running this set-up for 4-5 hours now no problems. I'll post back in a few days incase i get any problems

IBM/PS1-Since you have a Quad and need some stress testing, try doing some folding. Thought I had mine stable with Prime95 after 12 hours of testing, but at 63 hours of folding, it would crash. Now I have mine tweeked now where it will run 320+ hours no problems.

what is folding?

StressCPU2 is a good stress test program thats similar to folding..
