XP2100+ @ 2.66GHz on A7N8X Deluxe

[Copenhagen]

Yes, that's a fact, my CPU is doing 2.66GHz, and it's not even a P4.

Looks like it worked, w00t!
Now if only you had a high-end R9700PRO, and go compare the gaming performance, we're set!

Looks like the Vmod worked, based on the insane 425MTs FSB!
Good job dude, that's a damn nice system! Hope it'll remain stable at 2.66GHZ. Did you try any higher speeds?

It's barely stable @ 2.66GHz. It will run fine for a while, until the water gets too warm. My innovaRADI single radiator is simply too small, so it can't remove the heat as quickly as it is building. Remember I'm at 2.15V Vcore, and together with the high clockspeed the CPU is really producing large quantities of heat. Also the Northbridge is watercooled so it also adds some heat. I'm thinking of adding a bigger wall-mounted radiator, as the innovaRADI is not adequate at these kinds of load.

It's amazing that my <b>300W</b> HEC-300LR-PT power-supply seems to be able to provide enough juice, although the 5.00V dives all the way down to 4.70V when running Prime95. I think the HEC is fantastic, but at these insane loads it's about to give up.

Aside from radiator it'd seem to me the PSU might be in the equation for stability.

I would definitly buy a new one if I were you, especially if you're intending to later on get an R9700PRO perhaps!
That would just be the perfect love match!

225 Mhz FSB !!! 3439 MB/sec memory bandwidth!!!

Nicely done !!!

What brand and speed of memory are you using?

<b>99% is great, unless you are talking about system stability</b>

225 Mhz FSB !!! 3439 MB/sec memory bandwidth!!!

It's 2x256 OCZ EL DDR PC-3500 Dual Channel Enhanced Latency Series

I have a link to the specifications of my system in my signature.

I think you are right, although the unit was measured to deliver 350W in the PSU test made recently on Toms Hardware. I guess a Antec TruePower 550W would fit the bill.
