Lol

Okay, If I buy a new CPU/MOBO which can overlcok the most. I know this is kind of a newb question, but whatever. I selling my puter right now and it has a 2400+ which I can get to 2380mhz but the mobo can't give enough VCore. I need more than 1.85V. The 2400+ is only aroung $85. Is there any chip that goes higher than 2380mhz for less than $85? Also, What oveclocking mobo gives higher Vcore.

Any suggestions will do.

As always,
Thanks

well you kinda posted in the wrong forum you shopuld be over here in the oc'ing forum http://www.techimo.com/forum/forumdi...p?s=&forumid=4

and if you read through some of the post there are about a million differnt ideas or you can checkout the ocworkbench.com forum they have even more threads on oc'ing. But AFAIK to go any faster you have to go to the barton core.

WOW! Look what I found! The 2400+ seems to be the ultra best! GEEZ!! 29 ghz!! Look at those Vcores. 2.2V! Lucky ofr me it shows what mobo's they used, so I can use the same.

the motherboard they used has been modded . you will have to mod any motherboard to get that kinda voltage . moding voids warrantys . when it comes to overclocking it is hit or miss . those supper high overclockers aren't in real pc's . they are just clocked up . they don't run everyday . they get them to clock really high and thats it . don't expect it in a normal everyday use machine . if you do your kidding yourself . i bet that 2400 that is running at 2.9 gig is liquid nit cooled . you think they are useing it like that as a everyday pc ?

How do you mod the motherboard to get more volts? I realize I'm not going to get 2.9 ghz from a 2.0 ghz chip. But it seems like the 2400+ has the ABILITY to go the highest.

The Epox EP-8RDA+ (the one I am looking at buying) I heard can run Vcores over 2.0 (2.2) was the max I saw. Your saying that you can ONLY mod a motherboard to get that high of voltages?

Thanks

yes you have to mod the board . how you do it i am not sure but i am sure if you do a google search you can find out . but the extrem oc'n you talking about have to have major cooling . sure the chips are cheap but if you have to buy 200$ worth of stuff to cool it to get to those lvl's what the point , if you want to be stable that is . if you look at most of those really high overclocks u will see they are all with modded boards and dry ice cooled or liquid nit cooled . not really practical .
