Overclocking my 3000+ Venice...

[Arjunne]

Well, I currently have my 3000 running at 2000mhz, vs. the stock speed of 1800mhz.

I am currently running the stock heatsink and fan.

Should I be concerned about overheating with this setup? I didn't figure it was a significant overclock to warrant a fan upgrade.

However, am I wrong in my assumption? Should I consider upgrading the fan to a thermaltake blue orb, or some such fan?

Thanks in advance

Your stock HSF will be perfectly fine for whatever amount of overclock you can get out of your chip at stock voltage. It should even be fine holding up an overclock on +.1v, but after that I'd recommend a 3rd party HSF.

Thanks a bunch for the information; I didn't mod the voltage at all, and I figured since its a small bump up, it should be fine. Much appreciated.

I was able to get my 3000+ Venice up to 300x9 with stock cooling and barely above stock voltage.

Sheesh; thats not bad at all... maybe I'll push er' to 2200 mhz, then. I dunno - 400 over stock on stock cooling seems like it'd get hot during load. I'll just have to be careful, I suppose

Yeah, just monitor the temps and you'll be fine.

I only able to clock untuil 2470MHz of my Venice ADA3000DAA4BW / LBBWE 0544 EPCW.
But, I manage to stepdown the memory speed to 100MHz (original was 200MHz)and get on my system to run at 137MHz, is there any strange here?.
At this speed SuperPi fail, but other proggies I try run smoothly.

With original memory speed of 200MHz, I only able to manage at 2250MHz.

Just short notice:
I use mobo Foxconn 6100K8MA-RS because I like microATX board with QPack SFF :x.
