AMD dual core overclocking thread


Recommended Posts

I am on the 9X multi, I cant even get 20Mhz more atm, maybe a new bios will fix it, maybe just some quality burn-ins ...

sorry for double post, but figured no one would know I posted otherwise.

I got my cpu upto 2.75 with a little bit of tweaking and burn-ins on the cpu.

hoping to get 2.8 but, getting there, will take time it seems, almost at the 1Ghz oc mark now

those new stepping are really great. im stuck with a dud pretty much. you should also run that overnight to make sure its good, but so far its looking good.

I'm looking at getting an opteron 170 dual core myself and I was wonder what would be some good memory. I don't plan on going for a huge overclock as I'd like to stay with the stock cooler. From what I've read, I should get roughly 2.5 ghz fairly easy, even with the stock cooler. So far, I'm looking at getting 2 gigs of Patriot PC3200 memory that has an advertised rating of 2-3-2-5 at 2.6v. Should that work ok? I'd like to stay with Patriot as I've had really good luck with their memory.
