so if my wc is on wednesday i am going to oc my system as high as possible

but i wanne to ask some questions about some things.
- what is the max for an 2.8 prescott wc cooled
- max volt on the ram
- best timings for the ram

what do i find here :^D
yeah, but al the timings:o
just give me an example;p

those are those new ones with hynix chips i think...

nwyas, I'd say set your timings to 3-4-4-8 and see how high you can get. then work your way down on the timings untill you find a good compromise. but remember, p4's prefer bandwith over timings. if you max out your ram before you max out your cpu, change the divider.

I have very little experience with p4 overclocking though, maybe ask gamer or someone else. they'll probably be able to help you out much better :)

TCCD chips from Samsung to be correct;)

about the max vcore?
is that 1.7 like an northwood

ps: tomorrow i'll have the ocz

something like that.
for benching, you can go higher, not for 24/7.

and timings DO matter, higher = lower performace.
go for 2.5-3-3-7 with that ram 1:1

I didn't say it didn't matter, I said that if you have to choose between pure mhz or timings, mhz is the better choice on a P4, generally speaking anyway, offcourse, there will be a point where the diminishing returns become to great.

but in the end, you'll only know if you test what works best for you.

btw jmke :

thanks,

i'll try it tomorrow =>result will follow

Make sure you cool your mosfets proper.

results ?
or something went wrong ? ;)
