🤣 So, here’s my best attempt... 675/2100 😛

hey wiredmarlin5, how far did you actually push that 8800gt xxx?

Here it is, folks... hit a wall with the GPU. It just won't go past 685MHz. Final specs: Processor E4500 @ 2.93, kingamx 2x 1gb DDR2 667MHz @ 709MHz, Albatron 8800gts 675 core, 1563 shader, 1050 memory (2100)... total score of 11338 on 3DMark.

Even for me, things just won't settle down... since the CPU still isn't cutting it, I've turned my attention to the GPU... My new 3DMark record sits at 11113...


And here’s what I get on stock settings: 8702

You need to scale back... RAM can only go so far...

It's a decent case. Airflow really comes down to how you arrange the components inside and manage the cables... plus setting up your intake and exhaust fans correctly enough.

So... what case are you running, and how many fans do you have in there (and their sizes)?

God, those AMD builds...

You aren't even close. (By the way, in certain alphabets, X actually stands for K)

scroll down a few pages... there's a link to an OC guide from the PCI forums

EDIT: alright, back to RivaTuner and 3DMark... trying to squeeze out a better score...

The last two links are broken 👎

Try running a 3DMark test on the rig

So, what exactly are you trying to achieve by cranking up the voltage? It’s hardly rocket science... if you actually want to learn something, just ask

It’s all the same thing, really... nothing different here... just read the overclocking guide, you idiot, and either bump up the CPU voltage or tweak the memory multiplier if the motherboard won't let you push the FSB any higher.

Is that running on the stock cooler?

Is there a real risk of overheating? Temps hit about 80 degrees Celsius during newer games. And will this amateur overclocking actually yield any noticeable results?

thanks

Don't bother overclocking... won't be worth the effort. Try cooling the card down at stock settings first.

Here's the build...

Intel Pentium 4
Foxconn Winfast 250GB
1.5 GB DDR1 Kingmax
ATI 1950 Pro 256 MB

I want to overclock the CPU, but every single time I try and run 3DMark 05, I get a Blue Screen or the whole system just freezes. Why?
I haven't touched the voltage, just the frequency...

Not exactly an overclocking expert, so if someone actually knows what they're doing, some help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Temperature? What’s the error code on the Blue Screen?

Exactly, except the second one isn't lighting up in the photo.

Corsair Power Supply $33 🤣

😂 little... noticed it was built into the processor
