My 2500+

[JonElfson]

I got my 2500+

AXDA2500DKV4D
AQUCA 0323TPMW

It's currently running 10x200FSB @ Stock Voltage with Corsair memory timings @ 2 2 2 5 (synced FSB of course)

When I rise it to 11x200FSB @ Stock Voltage it won't boot into Windows.

When I set it to 10.5x200FSB @ Stock Voltage it fails Prime 95 tests.

Should I overvolt it? Will this shorten the life of my chip?

I am also running an ABIT NF7-s V2.0...

give it a little more juice

 

[JonElfson]

Like 1.7?

How much will it shorten the life of my chip?

 

[JonElfson]

Now it's at 11x200FSB @ 1.775 voltage, is this good? I'm going to like Prime95 run a bit longer then check my temps.

 

[Atif]

Does that system have 2 sticks of memory running in Dual Channel mode?

Peace

 

[JonElfson]

Yeah, it's the Corsair TwinX 512MB LL.

It failed Prime95 and I don't want to overvolt it any more, so I am now testing 10.5x200FSB @ 1.675 volts to see if it'll be stable.

 

[Chumpman]

What kind of cooling are you using and what are your temperatures?

 

[JonElfson]

I have an SLK-900U with a Panaflo 92mm LOW

It failed @ 1.675 voltage now I bumped it to 1.7 and it's being stable @ 10.5x200FSB.

Looks a little disappointing for a week 23... about the same as my week 7... but yeah, mine doesn't like to go past 2.2 Ghz either no matter how much voltage I give it... after about 4 hours mine errors in Prime 95 at 2.2 Ghz... if I set it to 2.1 like you've done, then it'll run indefinately... but I leave it at 2.2 Ghz because I've never gotten an error or crash in a game or anything else I'm doing... just Prime 95.

 

[JonElfson]

Yeah, I was hoping a little better from that chip, but oh well.

It would probably need at least 1.8 volts or a little more to be stable at 2200MHz... because 1.775 volts gets an error in Prime95 a few hours in.

Still nothing to scoff at @ 2.1 Ghz

Got the same stepping here. Have to go with 1.8v for 200*11.
