1090 T first time on new board

[Tweak-venetica-]

hey guys whats up, i just received my crosshair IV Extream today, and with a first run i got sooooo lucky with a nice mediocre overclock on my phenom 1090T 4.1 Ghz stable , and great temps , i know i need to post a issue or a update , but i'm in a good mood haha , and havent been on OCF for a while so thought i might let my budz know of my progress ,

system specs

CPU : phenom 1090T @ 4.1ghz
cooling : corsair h70
Memory : corsair dominator 1600 cl 8 ( i know this is my bottel neck ! )
motherboard : asus crosshair IV extreame
3D setup : Asus matriX 5870 P
: ausu GTX 460 Top 1024mb ( physX )
chassis : antec 1200

Stock temps

CPUz validation

after installing all the softwares and getting a proper background ran the AOD bench (OC)

some CINE bench images

CPU ( ALL )

CPU ( 1 core )

finally GPU

rand AOD stability for 1 H i know its not the best but its all i have for now , i'll downloads more things and test more

oke and super PI

and vantage ( out of full fairness i disabled the GTX 460 on the motherboards pciX disable switches next to the memory , so no physX or contributed performance from GTX 460 )

the OC specs are

CPU @ 4.1 Ghz 20.5 x 200 1.55V
3D card @ 950 / 1200 1.17V
NB 3000 mhz 1.28 V
HT 1800 mhz Auto

hope you guys are as happy as me hehe that was fun !!

Nice Specs

I saw superPi did you run Prime as well?

Nice specs and OC.

I did yes on my new OC of 4.2 stable with a night run , done some research and noticed my voltages were a bit higher than needed , so dropped them and got nicer temps , but i hit a brick wall , i run vantage stable and AOD and CINE and even Super PI @ 4.35 but note Prime , Prime crsahes the system here are images of the new OC ,

CPU 4.2 ghz 1.51V
NB 3.0ghz 1.2V
HT 1.8Ghz auto

and CINE @ 4.2 ghz

here is AOD @ 4.35 but its not Prime stable

this cant be it , i'm sure better cooling and fine tweaking i could get it stable , i know the higher the OC the lower you need to keep the CPU temp below the 55 'C safe for 4.3 is 47'C , my core temps are below that but my CPU is at 53 'C so no go there ! grrr! i belive 4.2 is my cap ? did notice the mother board has a max of 1.7 CPU + 0.3 Over volt and a jumper to get 2.5 + .3 over volt hehe so voltage head room , no problem , i just dont want to waist my machine on dice , have no XP in it so yeah , guess i'm stuck at 4.2 ghz

Damin , i checked what most ppl are getting as ambient room temps , WTF !! i do around 28-32 ar night and 35-40 at day some days even 48'C were do yall stay that is soo cold ?

Michigan here and 20°c right now is on a warm day. it's normally in the house about 16°c.

 

[Tweak-venetica-]

it's currently 32'C in my room !! and 41'C outside !

 

[Bijiont]

it's currently 32'C in my room !! and 41'C outside !

Must be nice, it's currently -2°C outside. . . .

 

[SilverJeep]

Must be nice, it's currently -2°C outside. . . .

Must be nice, it's currently -11°C outside. . . .

 

[Tweak-venetica-]

wtf ! i could chill my h70 cooler at those temps !! wtf by the way update on the overclock , updated the bios and prime95 4 hours stable got 4.16 with alot less voltage 1.46V and much better stability and performance and much better Temps , i'll keep posted but here a quick snap

 

[Tweak-venetica-]

might i advice the members of asus and ROG with this board download this bios ,

http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=lt1ShF6xEn3rlLe7

adds CPU level up to have a default cpu speed of 3.7 or 3.9 then overclock on-top of that ,

also adds better support and new overclocking methods as-well as enables a OC of 2133mhz for memory i'm going to try OC more peace out !

My system is out in the garage. Ambient at night, after work in there is like 2 or 3c max. The other day my ceiling after 24 hrs of boincing was 20c with all 6 cores at 100%

 

[Tweak-venetica-]

your very lucky temp is my problem now with my golden chip , one question , any idea why my NB mhz can exceed 3000mhz ? a single mhz more and the pc just wont start up then i need too cold boot , ( switch off for 10 sec ) and tap del to get into the bios , ? 3000 cant be my max the mobo shows 6000mhz even 1.22V doesn't post ?

 

[Peeved Kitten]

You might need to up the Voltage a bit I believe that 1.25 is the limit, but I would get confirmation of that first.

 

[Tweak-venetica-]

holly crap ! i just done a quick oc to 4424 mhz
http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=1528905

and check how bad it was on HWbot

[Tweak-venetica-]

does the OC need to be stable ? i got 4.6 yesterday unstable under load but media player plays well , just wana know maybe i can use a 4.6 score ?

 

[AlabamaCajun]

A true OC is one that is stable but checking the waters above stable will give you an idea of what the potential is. One that is bound to crash is more of what some call a suicide run or just max oc which is good for bragging rights as long as we state it's not stable and when it is.

 

[Bobnova]

As far as HWBot is concerned, it only needs to complete the benchmark and take a proper screenshot.
For CPUz it needs to be validated by canardPC (the CPUz validation people), but that's it.
They don't care at all whether it's stable or not beyond that.

A true OC is any OC IMO.

A useful OC for 24/7 needs to be stable enough for your 24/7 stuff.

A useful OC if you're running FAH/etc needs to be very stable, as you're working for Science.

 

[Tweak-venetica-]

@ AlabamaCajun , i know what a stable OC is mate , just curious about HWbot , because i notice some insane scores , just curious if thats stable OC or just brag OC

 

[Tweak-venetica-]

how do i become part of FAH and OC teams ? and the Rosetta teams
