I had a pump fail on me once while doing many restart cycles while I was testing my hardware and resulted in a CPU temp of 92C. Thank God the Barton was dirt cheap and CPU's nowadays have throttling :D
3.2ghz usually for the past year. My setup is completely capable of running at 3.8 all the time, but I noticed a drastic increase in heat dump. I run it faster over the winter months.
I'm not familiar with your motherboard, however I assume it is a 965? Those chipsets have small querks with strap timings and ratios and you may actually be more stable at a front side bus frequency far greater than the previous most stable frequency. Are you able to adjust cpu multi's? What is...
Turion setup at your disposal guys, what clock speeds and what tests would you like to see on it?
I have memory potential of 440mhz
I have cpu potential of 2060mhz+ but I need a new clockgen PLL to go further
I have graphcs card potential of 380mhz core and 440mhz memory
Tell me how the motherboard holds up, and overclocking. Oh, and memory too. Thanks. I'm doing alot of rendering lately and I'm thinking about a very similar setup as yours minus quadro functionality.
I think this review may have also been related to timing. I don't think very many people are interested in buying this processor at this point in time, so Anand may have been allocating more time in products that have more buyers or more hype.
However, I do think the balance of this review...
Did you make good contact with your cpu? Where is your rad located? You should always use a large high pressure fan at medium>low speeds for watercooling. Good shrouds improve temps by 2-3 degrees.
You can't really take screenshots of it, but in source based games it is very apparent when AF is on w/ driver enabled optimizations. I fixed my shimmering by turning off the optimizations. It looks like a small rippling effect on walls and surfaces etc.. when you move your point of view. It...
