My E4300 Overclock Results

Ok sorry for the late post,coll started :( ,Anyways i've bumpt the vcore to 1.40 and its overclocked to 2.8 Stable..Ran OCCT for 3 hrs,will run it again in the night..About the RAM,Well i've left it as it is for now.But i guess 2.8Ghz is decent right for stock cooling,although i was getting around 68-70 deg celcius when OCCT was running...I could have gone for 2.8GHZ,but the temperatures was around 70-72 degrees..And since deepak said not to go above 65 deg...I guess this overclock is fine,considering i'm on stock cooling...

@Rio
Plz tell me whether u get a rounded IDE cable once you buy the XFX 650i mobo,I feel i got ripped off for it...

PS:Really long thread,and i really thank each one for your valuble help...So 2.8 is decent right?
 
yes its decent. very decent. but i think u need to get a better cooler soon to have the temps a little down at least i would not like my e4300 on 60 + any time. have u applied as5 as i din see any were in the thread u doing that try that u will have a lill fall in the temps
 
ABout the Arctic Silver 5,Any idea how much would it cost?Anyways the cost doesn't matter much...Its just the ppl who asemble the computers at SP road may not know how to apply it(I was surprised when the did not touch their fingers on the wall to remove the static electricity from their hands,so you can imagine them applying the AS5) I wouldn't mind doing it on my own but i'm inexperienced and scared i might damage the mobo.
 
nj, the 3.5gm tube is available for 375 bucks at Prime - if you know someone in Bombay, ask them to ship it to you.

hmmm...now that you ask, maybe on this board it requires the higher volts, since on my P5b-dlx, i was able to run it on default volts..that was somewhere around ~1.31V, vdroop on this mobo(p5nesli) is a bit higher, if i set 1.5 in the bios it actually drops to 1.46-1.47 in windows under load. So to have a stable operation have to set the vcore higher.

banik..
i'm runnin my 4300 at 3gigs on a vcore of 1.33125 V..
it shud work at this voltage..
i feel 1.46-1.47 is very high..

maybe u need to check if something else is off..

that is for running it @ 3300, as i said for some reason vdroop is very high on my mobo, if i enter something less it will boot up fine and will work fine, but as soon as the cpu comes under load, it restarts and i can see the reason is coz of the lesser volts, hence now i have started being on the safer side by raising the volts high enuf to not worry bout the vdroop.
 
Hey guys,I'm back with a new overclock...After lying low for a while i decided to push hard :)
So i upped the CPU volt to 1.3725 and the memory volt to 1.9V...Now i'm running @1333FSB @3.0GHz and RAM @733MHz 4-4-4-12 2T...Hows the overclock?Ran OCCT for 4 Hrs and its stable...Now here is where i'm a bit confused:-
1)Are my volts too much to be on stock cooling?I get the max temp of 75 deg cel(Core temp) while running OCCT but around 65 while gaming/ripping movies from my handheld camera(converting and compressing into Xvid).
2)Deepak has told not to cross the CPU temp above 65 deg cel,Now is the CPU temp and the core temp the same?Whats the difference b/w (Core#0,Core#1) and CPU temperature? I know both the cores are the CPU,but according to speedfan,the CPU temp is always lower than the core temperatures.
3)Both SpeedFan and Core temp v.95 show different temperatures with the latter always showing higher temperatures.(Everest and Core Temp show very similiar temperatures).
Any suggestions?

hmmm....the temps are alarmingly high...this tells you that your chip and the board has the capacity to go higher but dont run them @ those temps, though playing games would not fully utilise your CPU hence the temps would be lower but even 65C constant for more than 2-3 hours is not good. Run some pi test...showoff you 3dMark scores but then fall back on a OC which gives you a temp of somewhere around 50-55C on full load. Core temp v.95 temps is the one you should believe. Though i dont think intel has officially stated what is the tjunction for L2 revision of e4300 but with the kinda temps we look at .95 seems to have got the right tjunction for e4300 i.e 100
 
core temps are temps of each core it will show up at core 1 and 2 or 0 n 1 . 75 is way to high dude . get your self some as5 + a better cooler or under clock a bit till the time you cant arrange it. thats what i say you shoudl 75 is way to high
