My overclocking specs - newbie - comments/suggestions?
Hi, I'm a newbie to overclocking so any suggestions or comments on
these specs would be much appreciated, thanks. AMD Athlon XP 2600+ (Barton) Thermaltake Volcano 12 256MB Nanya PC2700 DDR-RAM Abit NF7-S v2.0 80GB Maxtor ATA133 7200rpm HDD Thermaltake Smart II case fan Codegen 450W PSU Antec 1000AMG PlusView case Ok, here's the overclocked specs (as shown by cpuz): Core speed: 2153MHz Multiplier: x12.5 FSB: 172.3MHz Bus speed: 344.5MHz Memory timings --------------------- Frequency: 172.3MHz FSBRAM 1:1 CAS# latency: 3.0 RAS# to CAS# delay: 4 RAS# precharge: 4 Tras: 8 The system is running stable and the CPU temp sits at 42C when idle (I can cool it to 32C if I crank the fan up to 5818rpm but it's too noisey). I have had the CPU running fine at 2.2GHz but I have to turn the fan and it gets annoying. I have played with the memory timings as yet so any suggestions for better performance would be great. I am looking into upgrading to dual channel 512MB PC3200 soon though. |
