and your little (Number '0' is a liar) is not cute and I do not care for it TBH.I know that you envy me and like to mess but I think it's not cool.
FYI.
you got it , i set that specially for you
finally you noticed it
0 is a liar, because
real value of '0' is 'anything tends to nothing'
but it messes up with calculations
there are three cases
1. 0/0=1 (as anything divided by itself equals 1)
taking a=0
2. then a/0=infinite (but can't divide by 0)
3. then 0/a=0 (tends to nothing)
thus number '0' is a liar

i know that you noticed, but remained quite
since my pocket money (scholarship money to be accurate
) is almost finished so tried some other ways to have fun, it was only for numerical fun, is that was rude
OK, i apologize for that, from now i will try to not to mess
what about this new one, it will remind me of my world

Hello Guys,
Good Day! Hope all is well.
Just need help how to OC my system. This is the first time so i have no idea how to start it. Can someone guide me what to do first? The very first step, sorry i'm not as techie as you guys but i'm very eager to learn these stuff.

CPU: Athlon II X3 455 @ 3.3GHz
VC: ATI Radeon 4650 [512MB]
RAM: Kingston Hyper X 8GB (2x4GB)

first thing you do is read this
http://www.overclockers.com/forums/showthread.php?s=785...
even though it is for Phenom II owners most of it will apply
you must be willing to do alot of reading
the first rule of overclocking is read/study before you do it
also go into your BIOS (usually by pressing DELETE on startup/boot)
get familiiar with all of your settings
DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING YET
just see what is there

yes you over clock by raising the FSB (actually FSB isnt the exact term but close enough-reference clock or HT would be righ when it comes to AMD CPUs-FSB is more of an Intel thing)
I was able to get a Phenom II x 4 925 stock 2.8 up to 3.5 stable so it is possible to OC without using the multiplier

I dont want to use this thread to help you
this is really for posting OC results

So I finally got a better case and HSF. (Corsair 400R and Hyper 212+)
My intention was to bump the voltage and speed on my 1045t. The chip was so well behaved up to 3.4 that I thought heat was my primary barrier.
Well the poor thing took two voltage bumps and a memory down-clock to stabilize at only 3.5 @1.424v. And then temps were getting up to 56-57C after a couple hours of prime95.
3.6 would "pretend" to be stable and then BSOD/lockup after extended stress tests.
I am now back down to 3.4Ghz @ 1.344v and enjoying only lower temps (52C max now) from the whole experiment.
I just felt like 1.424v and 56C was too much stress when I can run 100Mhz slower with much less voltage and heat.

3.5 at 1.424v? That seems like a lot of voltage to me for 3.5, also just wondering what cooling are you using stock or aftermarket?

I'm running a Hyper 212+ and 8 120mm case fans. Room temp is ~78F.

I forget now, but it was like a box of chocolates. Each one seemed to have a different set. (there was never just one at a time) I looked up the first few and they were related to memory.
Down-clocking the RAM stabilized 3.5 but only with the extra vcore. (1.424)
When 3.6 BSOD'd after teasing me for about half an hour of prime 95, the RAM was still down-clocked (RAM voltage was @1.65 -within specs of the RAM) and I didn't bother chasing down the codes at that point.
I should also mention that I tried small voltage adjustments on the NB, HT, CPU-NB, RAM, etc. I also tried different NB speeds, different HT speeds, etc.
Tested all 16G's of ram with memtest overnight. (multiple passes)
CPU 3.4@ 1.344v and RAM ~1343 @1.5 volts is happy with both memtest and prime95 overnight. (Two different nights)

Is your ram like 2 x 8gb or 4 x 4gb sticks?

4X4You could try to use 2x4gb sticks and see if you can get a higher overclock, I've heard using more than 2 sticks leads to issues and is complicated/interferes while testing, but this is from what I've researched so far, of course i'd want the full 16gb since I paid for it lol.
Also I found the higher overclock the lower the ram is always better, for me my ram is 1600mhz at 1:4 ratio, i went to 1:3.33(<-- something like that) which is a step below 1600 which is 1333 but since i overclock with the FSB i get 1466mhz which is not much behind the original.
I also tried lowering it down a step further while rasing my overclock it 3.75GHz and it helped alot but I still failed Prime95 after a couple hours.
If i were you i'd return to stock, then take it step by step and everytime you raise the FSB by 5-10 run prime for 10-15min and if you pass keep raising it till you start to fail almost immediately, then I would start bumping the voltage a little by .010 till it starts passing longer and longer, also write down everything you do on paper so you can return to a certain setting and you dont get lost at what you did.
Im still new at overclocking but this is what i've been doing and its working so far

The systematic approach is how I got from 2.7(stock) to 3.4(OC) When I achieved 3.4, I had to undervolt it with a negative .075 offset to control temps with the TX3 cooler I was using.
Back then, I tested with more voltage and found 3.6, and a single voltage bump, reaching my personal heat limit of 55C with no signs of instability. I thought cooling was the only thing holding me back.
The new case allowed me to get a better cooler and I found that heat was not the only limiting factor.

are you being conservative? coz you should be able to get 4GHz easy, anything past that is a trick though (being an 840 user i can relate to you

Nice man yeah idk I should hit 4GHz easy but overtime I go up over 3.63 GHz I fail within minutes of prime I've tried a lot if things already.. if you could pm me and help me out that would be cool no one really has the same CPU as me.

AMD reccomends a max of 1.55V anyways
make sure your setting your ram at 1333MHz or 1600MHz (depending on what your ram is rated for, there both available at the 250 base clock)

I set my ram at 1333 instead of 1600 so it can handle being overclocked, I also tried bumping to the 1.4+ voltage area and I still fail with prime in under 5min, maybe its my board since its a cheap one now, msi 870a g54, though im stable at 3.63GHz I just return to stock as its not much of an increase, I do have all my settings saved for the overclock but its a real pain in the ass to keep testing and trying out different things to overclock

Ok almost 2 hours into prime at 1.46vcore at 3.87GHz RAM at about 1536 something like that. I'm heading for a 6 hour stability test so ill post back if/when I fail but looks promising at the moment. sucks voltage is high but it fails with lower voltage.
but for future reference 1.55v for phenoms are safe right??

I have run a Phenom II x 4 925 and 965 Black Edition both at 1.53v on a 24/7 basis including Folding at Home which stresses the CPU heavily
just try not to go too much over 55C on your temps
Alright well just woke up to see worker #4 failed after 5 hours and 25min .... -_-
It was one of the rounding errors, is this still voltage related?

depends on which Prime95 test you are running
the blend test is usually related to memory speed especially when just one worker fail
a freeze and shut down is usually related to voltage

Yeah lol idk about going that high people are crazy...but as of right now im 2 hours in prime blend test at 3.87GHz and 1.482vcore, I feel that the voltage is high for 3.8 but I found that when i fail its usually to low of voltage, think I can safely reach the 4ghz mark safely?
