I just got a new 3000+ barton and its locked as i thought it would be. I'm looking to overclock to 400mhz fsb so it would be in sync with the ram that i have. The only problem is the multiplier is locked at 13 so in order for me to get that it would put my processor speed at 2.6 ghz im not going to bother to attempt this with air cooling because i cant afford another processor if i screw something up My question is will the TT big water work well enough to go from 2.17 to 2.6ghz and if it is what should be the max i set the vcore at? Thanks specs are in signature
I'm not really sure how well they overclock, Neo. Let me recommend a good forum for you. These guys really really know their overclocking - to the T, so to speak. www.ocforums.com I learned everything I know from there. There are people there that may have the same setup as you and I'm sure they'd be able to help you with your inquery.
I dont have the problem anymore. I used the speaker wire trick to unlock the multiplier surprisingly it was really easy and works perfectly, so now im just gonna get the water cooler to see how far i can go. I would like to get in the 2.6-2.8ghz range but dont really know. Thanks for the info about the other forums they are pretty good
