    Talking 7.3GHz done

    I had planned to stop benching for a while and take away everything from my desk, but then 'chefnr1' (sweden) called and said that he had some LN2 left after his latest session.
    So, at midnight I started playing with a Celeron 331 but what ever I did I could not save any result over 100% OC. Any Hints?

    Anyway, I had bought a Celeron D 360 Cedar Mill just for fun. It costed less than 100USD here in Sweden.

    To my surprise 100% OC was done easy.

    6999MHz
    http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc?id=158636

    Hrm, nearly 7GHz... would it do 7.1GHz?

    7113MHz
    http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc?id=158637

    I could not believe it was so easy! How about 7.2GHz? Just upped the Vcore to 1.93v made it.

    7217MHz
    http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc?id=158638

    Now it started to get unstable... I had problem saving my results but finally I managed to break 7.3GHz.

    7310.77MHz
    http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc?id=158640



    I am not sure if the board (ASUS P5WDG2 WS Pro) survived but I will test it more this evening.

    Thanks!

    Yes, they are really funny. Compared with a Kentsfield or X6800 pouring LN2 is a pure pleasure on this one. -119-> -121 all the time without problem. At -125 the motherboard goes down.

    Actually I did not run any benchmark. I planned to run SP1M, 32M and PiFast atleast after I had found max OC. But suddenly the PSU started to give me some PIPs so I guess that either the board is broken or (if I am lucky) I just had a temporary shortcut on it. I have dryed the board now and I plan to test it later this evening.

    Thanks everyone!

    The board seems to work so I will try an E6600 retail now. I have just got the chip so I do not know how it performes. This is also my first test with dual-core.

    I would like to test the Celerons once more but I am running out of time so I only have time for a quick test on each CPU.

    I just tried the E6600 but I seem to be limited by the board (max FSB at about 470). I can do ~4.2GHz with 1.68V Vcore. I raised all the way up to 1.85V but no luck. The other voltages has been tried to the 'limit'. Also, as I plan to use this E6600 in a HTPC I do not want to break it. Also, the E6600 seems to stop at about 105-110 degrees.

    Misko82: Hrm... I can not see temps in windows and I only have a sensor in the bottom of the pot. What I meant earlier was that when the BIOS reads -125 degrees on the CPU, then the board stops working. One way to get around that should be to run higher Vcore. Last night I had to stop at 1.93V, maybe I should try the Celeron again instead of the Kentsfield?

    EDIT: changed the FSB-limit from 270->470. My mistake.

    Thanks! I only have the EVGA 680i and ASUS P5WDG2 WS Pro (975) so the ASUS-board it is.
