max overclock

c<64 · 07-23-2005, 10:35 PM

I just wanted to know before i started ocing my cpu and ram what you guys think is the max speed i will be able to oc it. So i don't fry my comp. My cpu temp. is usually around 32 or 33 degrees C., and my ram is 39 C. On stock cooling.

RAM- OCZ Enhanced Latency 512 DDR 400 PC3200

CPU-AMD Athlon 64 3200 Winchester Core

Would i be able to oc much?

Winchesters OC but not as good as a SD or a Venice. I say you can hit about 2.4Ghz +

what about my ram?

no one can tell u man everything differs man try it for ya self and fins out u should overclock ur gfx to it overclocks ez the timings are in my sigs

OCZ is insane w/ overclocking, you can probably OC that RAM to DDR 433+ easily w/ adequate cooling.

lol that aint that insane eg my VALUE doing ddr480 but hey i reakon u could get 2.5ghz ddr440-460 but that would take looser timings probebly. **** u might get ddr500 but doubt it i got lucky and my cpu can do 2.7ghz and my ram ddr480 with 3-3-3-5 timings all on stock cooling but to be safe i reakon 2.4-5ghz should <-(please remember this word) be fine

u can't really predict what you will get cos u might get a 3ghz chip or a 2.03ghz chip lol good luck

A 400mhz OC is highly unlikely on a stock cooler. Some people only get up to 2.4 with WC. 2.2ghz is a bit more reasonable, but not garaunteed.

But yeah, it is very difficult to predict an OC. We don't want to say that you will get 2.2, and you get ****ed off because you only got 2.1ghz.

Just try it, but make sure to monitor the temperatures. Get the Thermalright XP-90 heatsink for your CPU and you can OC even further.

My value ram OC'ed to 436 on stock timings, OCZ can do a **** of alot better, 500 is a good bet. If you loosen timings, you can go even HIGHER.
