I guess you can update my Mobo entry too, nothing other than the FSB has changed (429MHz)

gwai lo: I noticed you're running 480FSB, were you able to run your RAM at a 1:1 ratio?

I haven't overclocked my OCZ Plat Rev 2 yet so I'm not sure how high I can go. 240MHz seems like a pretty large overclock when it comes to RAM.

Or do you have your RAM watercooled as well?

Yeah it was 1:1, but not on water. Just an 80mm fan blowing over the DIMMs and the NB...however I can't find my screenshot and I can't seem to get it stable again (might be the heat right now..dunno). So I'm going to remove the entry, but yeah these sticks did pretty good.

Quick update: on my Vcore I've reduced it to 1.176v to drop the temps, and ran Orthos for another 9+ hours and was stable, but I forgot to take a screenshot of it :pinch:. I was just happy to see my max temps at 56-57c. I can't believe how little voltage this cpu needs, the default 1.32v seems like quite a lot. Here's the CPU-z shot:

And I thought chc was the only guy with a Core 2 Extreme on the forums. I guess I was wrong! :p

Not until I get a QX9770 or something.

But anyways, this is the lazy way of doing it. Increasing the multiplier. :p

I dropped it from 4GHz since it wasn't worth the extra volts. Mine is ES as you can see, but this one is complete junk when it comes to overclocking -- can't do 4GHz until 1.43V.

I've pulled way better OCs before, but this is good enough heh. I think I am going to get the new OCZ Flex II soon, the Striker II NSE reverses the RAM orientation and it looks ugly in my case :x

only thing i'm kinda worried about is temps

i just put a new heatsink in. i've read that it takes time for the thermal paste to set (or cure?) and i can see a drop in temps of ~5 degrees?

You're fine, most people define 15?C-20?C under Tjmax as being safe. Desktop Wolfdale Tjmaxes are 95?C.

yayuh first 500 FSB posting. That's good enough right now for the FSB submission.

I'll have both of you guys added in a few minutes.

I don't think there's a difference in overclocking across different OS' though.

The only difference is that some 64bit users might be running 4GB of RAM.

But otherwise I think it's more dependent on the chipset and cooling.

1.38 V-Core (Set to Auto in Bios because it isn't stable for some reason if it isn't)

Stock Intel Box Cooler (Air)

Gigabyte P35-DS3L Rev. 2.0 With F7 Bios

Windows Vista Business x64

Kingston KVR667D2K2/2GR (2GB of RAM) and Kingston KVR667D2N5K2/2G (Other 2GB of RAM)

Both 2GB Kits of RAM are 667MHz (PC2 5300)

The stock latencies are 5-5-5-15, but I have them running at 5-4-4-15 at 792MHz

Stable with prime95 for 12 hours. The temps hover around 60 degrees celsius when running prime 95 after a couple of hours, so I think I'm ok temperature-wise.

Remember to include CPU-Z screenshot of CPU, Mainboard and Memory tabs.

As well you forgot to include what speed your CPU is overclocked to.

Check CrashGordon's post on the first page for an example of how it should be formatted. :)

I was just about to do the same thing. :p

@Citrusleak: Also, a screenshot of Orthos or Prime95 for 8+ hours would be nice too. :)

@Gwai: can you update my Vcore to 1.176v?

@Gwai: can you update my Vcore to 1.176v?

Actually, don't do it quite yet. I had run Orthos for 9+ hours the other day and it was fine (but forgot a screenshot), so today I was going to rerun it, and it doesn't seem to be stable. I get an "This Program has encountered a problem and must close" or something in Orthos, although everything else is fine. It's almost like DEP kicked in and shut it down, although unlikely, but it's the same type of error box. I'm doing some more investigating to try and pinpoint if it's the voltage or just Orthos. I'm trying 1.192v now. I will remember to make a screenshot this time if all goes well. ;)

I'm pretty sure it's voltage. I had that happen to my Pentium D when I undervolted it a bit too much.

I'm pretty sure that's what it is. Also, it would fluctuate between 1.180 and 1.176 at idle, under load it would stay at 1.176. All other voltages i've tried it stays steady. It looks like 1.192 is going to be what works. It'll keep the temps at 38/58 (min/max) so that's 35c+ below tjunction max of 95c. I've got a build to do for the wife in a few weeks, so I might be able to sneak a ARCTIC COOLING Freezer 7 Pro in there along with my new Acer V223Wbd Black 22" monitor. :shifty:

EDIT: Sorry I forgot some information before. It won't let me edit my last post.

    • Zen Browser 1.21b by Razvan Serea Zen Browser is a privacy-focused, open-source web browser built on Mozilla Firefox, offering users a secure and customizable browsing experience. It emphasizes privacy by blocking trackers, ads, and ensuring your data isn't collected. With Zen Mods, users can enhance their browser experience with various customization options, including features like split views and vertical tabs. The browser is designed for efficiency, providing fast browsing speeds and a lightweight interface. Zen Browser prioritizes user control over the browsing experience, offering a minimal yet powerful alternative to traditional web browsers while keeping your online activity private. Zen Browser’s DRM limitation Zen Browser currently lacks support for DRM-protected content, meaning streaming services like Netflix and HBO Max are inaccessible. This is due to the absence of a Widevine license, which requires significant costs and is financially unfeasible for the developer. Additionally, applying for this license would require Zen to be part of a larger company, similar to Mozilla or Brave. Therefore, DRM-protected media won't be supported in Zen Browser for the foreseeable future. Zen Browser offers features that improve user experience, privacy, and customization: Privacy-Focused: Blocks trackers and minimizes data collection. Automatic Updates: Keeps the browser updated with security patches. Zen Mods: Customizable themes and layouts. Workspaces: Organize tabs into different workspaces. Compact Mode: Maximizes screen space by minimizing UI elements. Zen Glance: Quick website previews. Split Views: View multiple tabs in the same window. Sidebar: Access bookmarks and tools quickly.

Zen Browser 1.21b changelog: New Features Updated to Firefox 151.0.4 Added 'Space Routing', a new feature that allows you to route links to a specific Space. To get started, click on the three dots in your Space name and click on 'Space Routing Settings'. Fixes Fixed extension-opened tabs not being created with the correct container (#14100) Fixed a bug with the Boosts editor having the wrong theme colors (#14099) Improved overflowing space icons being inaccessible and improved the feeling when hovering over them (#13747) Other minor bug fixes and improvements Download: Zen Browser | 89.8 MB (Open Source) Download: Zen Browser ARM64 | Other Operating Systems View: Zen Browser Home Page | Screenshots 1 | 2 | Reddit Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • I am currently using a 4tb stick in combination with a 4tb 9100 Pro. It's only been six months since I bought them but the 990 has already dropped 1% health. Fingers crossed it doesn't go any lower.
    • But it opens the floodgates to anyone who gets a refund instead of a replacement (since refund will buy you a 1/3rd of the capacity it did years ago)
    • He has planned to file a lawsuit in small claims court so it'll only be a $1000 lesson assuming he wins. That's likely a fraction of what Samsung spends on toilet paper on a daily basis.
    • Windows Server gets DNS over HTTPS (DoH) support by Usama Jawad For the past few months, Microsoft has been previewing DNS over HTTPS (DoH) for Windows DNS Server, touting it as a foundational upgrade for zero-trust enterprise networks. It essentially introduces encrypted, authenticated DNS for the networks rather than transmitting DNS traffic in clear. Now, the company has introduced the general availability (GA) of this feature. The GA of DoH encourages organizations to deploy the solution in production environments without implementing a new client-to-resolver architecture. DoH helps improve the overall security of the network and reduces the risk of spoofing due to its zero-trust design. This is a significant change because pretty much every interaction with the network requires interfacing with DNS. DoH offers several advantages over standard DNS traffic, such as encryption using HTTPS, preventing unauthorized inspection, man-in-the-middle attacks, and traffic analysis. Since it leverages TLS certificates so that clients can verify the identity of the DNS server, it prevents spoofing through this authentication mechanism. Additionally, it's built on the DoH standard defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), which means that it should work with modern RFC 8484-compliant clients. Finally, it integrates into the existing network architecture seamlessly and can even run in parallel with standard DNS, so that customers can migrate to the new technology at their own pace. Microsoft says that in the past few months of preview, DoH has become more stable, and customers can confidently deploy it in production environments with proper guidance. Microsoft has emphasized that migrating to DoH is necessary for organizations that are moving toward zero-trust DNS solutions. Windows clients already support DoH, but the latest availability on Windows Server provides encrypted DNS to all endpoints. The company has also mentioned that "while this release focuses on encrypting client-to-resolver communication, support for encrypted communication between Windows DNS Server and upstream DNS resolvers is planned for a future update." You can follow Microsoft's guidance to deploy DoH here, but keep in mind that you need a Windows Server 2025 installation with the latest Patch Tuesday updates installed.
