2500+ Barton - overclocking question
Have a Barton 2500+ at default speed; I would like to run the cpu on 2200 or 2400 Mhz, or minimum 2100 Mhz, but with a nice temperature (40-45 degrees of celsius)!! What a special cooler do I need to do that (zaiman does it?) ?! Or... can I take this action at all?! The motherboard is: ASUS A7N8X Deluxe. Thanks in advance; -ha- |

Thanks in advance; -ha- My system is running at 3200+ (2.2 ghz) with the stock HSF (using the included thermal pad) and has a CPU temp of 41. You're gonna need at least PC3200 memory if you plan on accomplishing this by OC'ing the FSB to 200 mhz (which may be a necessity if you're CPU is locked...a good chance it is). |

Can't you "unlock" this cpu? I plan to order the same combination and I
don't want to hunt around for a "pre-week 39 - unlocked" cpu. "Eternally" wrote in message ... "-ha-" wrote in message ...

Get a Thermalright SLK-800A or 900A, plus an 80mm fan of at least 50 CFM,
plus a fan spacer of at least 10mm (use a gutted fan). "-ha-" wrote in message ...

Nope - it ain't ahappenin'
People with serious know-how and technology have tried and failed. You simply have to go hunting. Good luck. "GWHSU" wrote in message news Can't you "unlock" this cpu?

OK, I gotta ask. How do you use a spacer (gutted fan) on a sink that uses
wire clips? The reason I would like to know is cuz I'm currently using a 92mm on an SK6+ and the thouhgt of a spacer rocks my world. Any help much appreciated.

Slice the fan-cowl in half - to make it 10-13mm - and sand the cut flat.
I did this on my SK7, but it's no go with a 38mm fan. Dropped temps idle 7/4C loaded. "iTsMeMa" wrote in message . cable.rogers.com... OK, I gotta ask.

The A7N8X Deluxe (and most nForce2 boards) allows access to the multipliers.
At least the one I have does. I can change the multipliers on the two Bartons I have tried: 2500+ and a 3200+. "QBall" wrote in message ...

Then you have a pre-week 40 chip.
