Hey Jason.

I have a AMD64 4000+ San Diego Processor. How much could I overclock it without pushing it too far? and what knid of heatsink do you recommend?

Jasonhk · Post by **Jasonhk** » 08 Aug 2005, 11:50

What 4000+ Do you have ? A Clawhammer or a San Diego?

The Clawhammer will hit around 2.6+- Depends on cooling and the stepping (some are really good while others dont do so well)

The San Diego will hit about the same as my CPU.

Good Heatsinks are those Zalman ones for silent solutions or the Thermalright ones are great coolers.

Its a San Diego, could I run it at 2600 comfortably?

I think I just have a really good 3700+ cause it stays about the same temp when OCed to 2.6Ghz. (200mhz more than stock) Could this be true?

Yup it could be Dammod. And Marshal...take it that high and check your temps. You should do that speed without a Vcore change.

Yes you can just make sure your ram can keep up. 2.6Ghz on air is very easy on stock air even and stock volts. Use Prime95 to test stability.

I got my 3500+ to 2.310 Ghz (11x210mhz) on stock cooling. Runs 56 C at full load (tested w/ prime95), idles 36 C.
Do you reckon it will run better at 10x230mhz?
no latency/vcore changes

That 3500+ Venice will do 2800 on custom air cooling, but then good custom air cooling from Thermalright, or Zalman but it all depends on your memory. If your memory can not oc too much, the take your memory down to DDR333 which will then make it run DDR400 if the FSB is taken as high as 240... good lick. The venice cores in really good overclockers depending on cooling and the cpu itself.

2.8Ghz eh? thats quite a lot. aright matey, thanx. im gonna try to save up for a decent CPU fan.

Cool beans.....good luck, and check those temps.
