Lot of legwork there Oiges!
When I look at the time I have spent trying to find this coveted mobo, vs. the money I could have made by working during that same time - it comes clear to me that maybe I'm going to let go of the concept of hanging on to my old ram. I've wanted this mobo with...
Thanks. I've heard of folks recently being able to take an ASRock 775i65G with an E6300 from the stock 266 FSB up to 300 MHz. That only represents about a 12% overclock.
The E6300 seems comfortably capable of 50-70% (2.8-3.15 GHz), with some reports of aircooled oc's as high as the 90%...
The market doesn't currently offer a rich set of choices for Conroe owners who want to overclock this CPU on a micro-ATX motherboard.
Given that this CPU has such potential, do you think that the major motherboard manufacturers will be rolling out choices that have reasonable overclocking...
Built the P5PE with E6300 today. No adjustments for overclocking at all. No ability to get to 14x on the conroe. If you use DDR400 (PC3200) then the E6300 comes up stock at 1.86 GHz.
To investigate some of the other claims of people being exasperated with an underclocked CPU, indeed when...
Shipped on Monday by UPS from NJ to FL. I'll post the low down on the Asus board both here and on Newegg's review page.
Someone posted a negative report of the overclockability on this thread of the Asus forum.
I'm betting he had slower than PC3200 ram installed. I'd guess that these...
What zap said about the 14x on the netburst processors makes an awful lot of sense. (thanks Zap). I have a strong feeling that I'll be stuck at stock. I happen to be ok with that. (ok, not thrilled though).
Reply from Asus tech support was "we cannot support overclocking issues." I sent...
Hey Nedder,
On the memory, to do it syncronous would require DDR-533. They would have to mention that. They say DDR 400, and so surely it is. It clearly does asynchnonous timings.
I've posted on that thread that you linked to, as well as in the Asus forums. I have an inquiry into...
If the board really does unlock the multiplier up to 14 as advertised, even at the standard FSB of 266:
266 x 10 = 2.66 GHz =E6700 speed
266 x 11 = 2.93 GHz =X6800 speed - Intels top CPU at ~$1000.00 US
266 x 12 = 3.19 Ghz (a 72% overclock relative to E6300 stock of 1.86)
Here is one...
Multiplier Unlock?
From the Asus site:
The P5PE-VM offers the CPU Lock Free feature, which allows you to adjust CPU multiplier to 14x. The reduction of multiplier value provides more flexibility for increasing external FSB frequency to raise memory bus bandwidth. CPU Lock Free boosts...
I'm in the same boat of wanting to overclock an E6300 on this.
It suggests on page 58 of 80 (2-16) that you can unlock downward. On the right of a screenshot it says,
"Unlock locked CPU
and let it run at
lower multiplier
setting."
Is it only downward? Am I correct in remembering...
Note that as you see other free after rebate items on this site, the fine print on the PC Mall rebate forms say only one rebate per week.
An Anandtech thread for the other PC Mall FAR items is here. Don't get me wrong on this, I'm not slamming. If it weren't for this particular posting, I'd...
This link is worth a 2nd (or 3rd). These folks contend/suggest that Apple's cut could be as little as 3% (what eBay gets).
There are some VERY INTERESTING views on this page. Links to RIAA Radar and more.
WARNING: Reading this link can be a big time suck! I lost several hours by clicking...
