You really put in the effort here, don't you? :D Oh well, even though i'm quite sure I've been at it as long as you..(even though I would not use it as an argument like you do) I cant stand this kind of arguing for the sake of just that. My point still stands as firm as ever, no matter how...

Umm, with raised "clocks" I simply mean higher frequency on the cpu...that are "validated" with an SP2004 or prime95...and if run another application to "steal" cycles that would render a higher "clock". After all this forum is named Overclockers UK, and focus is on overclocking..(or used to...

I'm happy for you.. :D

Very true. Best then would ofcourse be if all used priority10 to prevent "missleading" results, right? After all, if all used priority10 the results shown..(and presumably also used as reference) would be a viable aid for the others, right? Do you not share timings, settings and so on...

Sure it's the same calculations, but higher priority...calculations done faster. You really don't believe a P3 will calculate those calculations in the same time...do you? Higher system priority, more job done...and more stress on CPU. But who am I to tell you... Maybe you could try to...

Why are you guys so persistent on using only priority 1 on SP2004? You should set at least priority 7 for it to be a decent stresstest....prefereably 8-9. Proirity 1 just don't cut it... :rolleyes:

Well, I did a quick search on one of the bigger UK pricewatchers site and I found the AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+ Dual Core CPU, 939 Pin 2.4 GHz 2MB Cache for: Price: £174.99 ex VAT (£205.61 inc VAT) :rolleyes:

Aha, thats good! :)

So, you got it conformed by the distie then...it lands today folks!

I can't agree with you more, not that found of that kind of marketing... :mad: I'm not surprised...and how long do you think this post will survive? :rolleyes:

I would stay on 3.1GHz, going above that requires to much voltage...just aint worth it. :D

Good to hear that you have discovered the true potential of your chip ;) Welcome to the 3GHz club (dual Optie that is) :D

Prescott runs hotter than Northwood. If under air cooling Northwood will clock better, if under better cooling solution Prescott will perform better.

Cooler is XP-120 that has been lapped and modified, a Nexus on top of it that spins @ 800-900rpm. Now on 1.19v and 2.7GHz and dead silent, would not have been possible with IHS still on. I'm happy with it.. ;)

Yes NOTE: This is with priority 9...everything under 8 is simply not valid!

Rip that lid of mate :) You gonna see some awesome results if you cool it like you do. Better yet with water, then you definately must take it off. :D

Well whattaya know.... :rolleyes: ...I rest my case. "Just sick and tired beeing sick and tired"

Ok, and I assume it was the SMD that you "fixed" ?

At what frequency.?..the frequency mate.....the frequency.. :D I'm saying it's to hot for that he is trying to acheive....a overclock! Again, we are in a overclocking thread....right? Ohhh man...I give up. :)
