I've done several decent ones in my time:

1st: AMD Opteron 165 from 1.8Ghz to 2.8Ghz using DFI Lanparty UT NF4 Ultra-D & 2GB OCZ Platinum DDR400 RAM

2nd: Current spec, E6600 from 2.4Ghz to 3.5Ghz. Specs in signature.

CPU-z, ignore the voltage in CPU-z, its wrong, look at the voltage at the top of the screen on ASUS PC Probe II.

Benchmarks for E6600:

SiSoftware Sandra Lite XI : 25525 in Arithmetic

Orthos stable for 5 hours+

1M SuperPi: 15 seconds

Well I know them Core 2s are all the rage in recent times, but I've got an overclocked Prescott running happily in my machine.

I pushed it as high as 121% (or 3.4ghz) but it wasn't precisely stable at that. Also I'm on air cooling and my paste is not so great.

So I run it at 3.2ghz, a modest 114.2% clock. I've got my RAM clocked just under typical DDR rates with a 1.6 multplier.

No fancy-shmancy screenshots to hand out. Oh well!

Core 2 Duo E6320 @ 3.01GHz (up from 1.86GHz). Temps: 40-44 degrees idle and 60 degrees load on both Tjunction and Tcase. Vcore: 1.44V.

Mobo: Gigabyte GA-P35-DS4. 430x7. Temps: 40-44 degrees idle, 50 degrees load.

RAM: 2x1gb GeIL Ultra PC2-6400 @ 430MHz, 4-4-4-12.

GC: 8800 GTS 640MB. 650MHz core (up from 500Mhz), 950Mhz memory (up from 800Mhz). Temps: 65 degrees idle, and I'm not sure about load temperature.

Stock cooling (yes, I will buy something better) and a lot of case fans.

Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 @ 3.36GHz (480*7, 1920MHz QDR) on Scythe Infinity+Resistor @ 900rpm (Asus P5K-Deluxe)

Idle 47, Load 58 (Noctua NF-S12-800 back, Noctua NF-S12-1200 ULNA @ 600rpm front) - Seasonic M12 in Thermaltake Aguila. 1.3750V, ~1.3V vdroop - Orthos stable.

Here's my current setup, this is with my 2GB OCZ Platinum RAM:

With my previous 1GB OCZ Performance RAM, I was able to OC the CPU to 2.7GHz Stable, of course with different mem clock, FSB, and HTT.

I can't get back to 2.7GHz with the 2GB kit, not sure why yet, don't have the time to attempt again

Unlike most people here with Core 2 Duo's, I'll be yet another outcast with an AMD :p

My AMD Opteron 165 (stock 1.8ghz) is currently running at 2.57ghz on stock 1.35v vcore with a Tuniq Tower 120.

I think the temps are good because compared to stock speed, the load temp increased by just 2 degrees celsius.

idle temp: 39C

load temp: 51C with two instances of Prime95 running for 2 hours.

I'll run a 24h test the next day I'm working and if it remains stable, I'll push it a bit more. There's no rush :cool:

Here are some more overclocks that I have tested stable for my system (All 8+ hours dual orthos stable):

Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 L638F615 on a Zalman CNPS9700LED @ 2300rpm

@ 3.0GHz (9 x 333 1.300V)

@ 3.2GHz (9 x 356 1.375V)

@ 3.3GHz (9 x 367 1.425V)

Asus P5N32-E SLI Plus Motherboard - Bios 0801

2 x 1GB Corsair XMS2 PC6400 TWIN2X2048-6400 @ 400MHz 4-4-4-12 2T 1.9V

PNY nVidia GeForce 8800GTS 320MB @ 675/1026 on stock cooling

New one :)

Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 L638F615 on a Zalman CNPS9700LED @ 2300rpm

@ 3.4GHz (8 x 425 1.4625V)

I just had to top the 3.36GHz that chconline got with only an E4300 and his beloved P5K Deluxe.

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
