PCTwin AMD Overclocking Log

Just submitted my Sandra results and I managed to get the cpu to run at 4.407GHz with the memory at 1808MHz.

This gained me a score of 67560fpu.

Not bad, but that was it. I just couldn’t get it to run any higher.

It still says 1st out of 5.

Prime95 stress test 30 min run

CPU at 4242, multi 21 and a bus speed of 202

F@H test

After a 7 day 24hr session the top one day score was 11,702, although I think the average is about 10,000

CPU @ 4231.5 Memory @ 868 (1736MHz)

I've had fun overclocking and discovering this system. The whole kit was a joy to play with.

The only criticism I have is the motherboard BIOS.

Biostar need to improve this. The thing needing most attention is the bad overclock recovery, which I felt was practically non-existent.

Other than that the motherboard performed well enough. The overclocking options are easy to understand, not unduly complicated.

The CPU performed well. I don't know what stopped me from getting a higher clock out it. I think it's a combination of the motherboard BIOS and the silicone lottery.

The cooler performs as big as it looks.

It's not as loud as I expected considering the four 100mm fans, at night I had to turn them down 50% cos the system is in the bedroom, and the system was still cool at 4.2GHz.

I've lost my memory! Forgot where I put it. Could be my age.

Oh OK.

The memory.

Putting looks aside, I am well impressed by the memory. I maxed at 1960MHz from 1600MHz. This is the best performing ram I've come across since my old GeiL DDR2Ultra 800.

I have played and played with this system now and I can't see me getting better scores till I watercool it.
 
Sorry guys. I've gone ahead and watercooled this.

I wont post the results to hwbot yet, but I'll keep you updated.
