Oops.
I started overclocking P4 with this one, so i don't have too much prior experience. I currently have a stock HSF and the thermal pad. Prime 95 runs stable at 2.133, but boosts my CPU temps to around 55-57 C using speed fan as the monitoring utility. vcore is at the default.
System specs...
I recently built a system with a pentium 1.6a, a Gigabyte 8IE-XP, and samsung pc2700 ram. I got it up to 2.133 ghz with a 133 fsb, but when I try to run it to 2.4, windows XP won't boot. What can I do to get it up higher?
I'm not sure what to expect from the included heatsink/fan combo, but my 1.6a running at 2.133 ghz has a load temperature of 59 c when running prime 95. Is my cpu overheating? What can I do to lower the temperature if it is?
I am a newbie at this overclocking business, so I need help withi it. I want to get a pentium 4 1.6a and overclock it to 2.4 ghz on default voltage. My question is, what motherboard do you recommend for this that supports DDR?
Thanks
