Well it's all been shoe horned into a tiny mATX case!

Not being shy I have racked the fsb straight to 400MHz. This gave me 3.8GHz and a very respectable 13.625s 1m Super Pi(e) score! (It was sub 20 secs at stock!) It is now running Orthos and after a few issues namely vdroop seems stable.

I have read that they can get to 4.2GHz on air and if possible I will try for a suicide shot for a good Pi(e) score. 4GHz was attained as a stable system in the article I read but I have to bare in mind this is one small box.

Also I read that anything above 3.6GHz showed little performance increase in gaming so I may leave it lower for 24/7 use. (Who am I kidding!)

Nice!

This is invaluable information for anyone considering the E7200. Keep it coming.

Cheers, Slipstreem.



System specs:

"Phoenix" / "The '43' Special" - 1.8GHz Intel C2D E4300 overclocked to 2.83GHz with ACF7Pro HSF on Volt-modded ASRock 775Dual-VSTA mobo (BIOS rev 2.10, VNB=1.65, Vagp=1.8), 1GB Vitesta DDR500 RAM (2.5,3,3,7,1T @ DDR472MHz), Jetway ATI X1950Pro 256MB GDDR3 PCIe graphics card with modded AC Accelero X2 cooler dynamically overclocked to 650MHz GPU & 1.5GHz RAM. Powered by Hiper Type-M 580W PSU. Guess who likes overclocking on a budget.

As already posted elsewhere it's at 4GHz now. The ram is now slightly over clocked so a divider may be needed. Sub 13 sec Super Pi(e) achieved.

Anyone want to swap an E6750 for an E7200?

thought not.

Nice job on the OC wiz.

I run my E7200 at 3.8ghz on a Gigabyte DS3R board and all on stock voltages.

Currently using Buffalo Fire Stik PC6400,which is suppose to over clock quite well, but I can't get the timings right, might need some more volts.

DS3R: E8200: 4gb Memory:8800GTS-640mb.
