today its been finally assembled and put together

pics:

and i have also managed to finally get to 3gh

167 fsb...i know i could be better, i still have to play around with it

its being cranky with the ram i think...cause i can boot on 180 and stuff, but then wen i get to windows all types of memory errors come up...i dont know why its pc3500 ... underclocked

would anybody know to what voltage i can push this p4 chip to? cause i have read sumwere they get cranky over 1.7 volt line..

Nice work, really suave Clown

, looks good, interior of case could use some akasa pax mate.

Consider picking up some $5 HDD coolers to drop HDD temps to or below 30Ã‚Â°, and you can move one of the HDD's up into bottom CD-ROM bay with a 5Ã‚Â¼ to 3Ã‚Â½ converter to give them more breathing room.

Don't overvoltage past 1.6v, SNDC can and will happen d00d, and you are hearing this from someone who has had it happen thrice.

I have the same proc as you, PIV 2.4B, I can get to 184MHz FSB stable, 185MHz and no-boot, running 1.6v core, bah. I only get that speed because of my C1 core stepping, what stepping is yours?

EDIT: Update; I have a PIV 2.4C now and I get 280MHz FSB

Once again, great work d00d

vladimir · 03-July-03, 10:45 PM

eh those hdd coolers dont do ****, but increase noice, and bring dust in....

eh ive got a B0 stepping....second best

kinda sux, i would of lovee to have a C1 stepping chip

TekXoID · 03-July-03, 10:50 PM

Nope, my HDD's ran 35Ã‚Â°+ without em', both HDD's are running 29Ã‚Â° right now, with em'

Ah B0 is your limitation bro, you are lucky to even get near 180MHz

vladimir · 03-July-03, 11:04 PM

ah, well im happy that ive hit 3gh

im thinkin of getting anotehr system soon.....amd system

so ya LOL

putwig · 04-July-03, 05:57 AM

Very nice compact install!

What happened to the air trap?

vladimir · 04-July-03, 08:16 AM

well um, it had to go.....i couldnt place it after the pump, so i ended up removig it all together...

i have filled it so much, that i cannot see any movement of water in the tubes....

the only way i can tell that its working is hear the pump, and the little dirt thingie thats inside my waterblock LOL

ZENNZZO · 04-July-03, 07:50 PM

Can you still use the side cover with the radiator mounted there?

vladimir · 06-July-03, 12:09 PM

kinda....lol

i have to cut up the side a tad

Lord_nikon · 08-July-03, 11:24 AM

see pics here http://67.84.163.202:808/accounts/cl...ter_installed/

and

putwig · 08-July-03, 04:30 PM

That is awfully high voltage for a northwood is it not?

Clown buddy you are killing that chip, don't say I didnt warn you when SNDS happens to it. Sudden Northwood Death Syndrome
What causes it? vCore past v1.6!

vladimir · 08-July-03, 05:53 PM

1.6 is friggin stock voltage

i did sum searching and um ppl say 1.75 is high

1.7 is fine...i dont know....

edit

i just rememberred i have 3 year warranty on this chip...

and i got it from newegg....so even if it dies, i should be able to get get a new one...i think

I have had several chips, my own, and customers, die due to vcore between 1.6 and 1.8...wait and see for yourself.

neotheducky · 08-July-03, 06:23 PM

The three year warranty will most likely be voided if you use it outside of the guidelines set in the warranty. Almost every manufacturer only covers breakdowns from normal surcumstances. This means that it will not cover failures due to overclocking.

I stand with TekXoid (just this once

) in saying that you would be pushing it to up the voltage. And for what really? A few more points in 3dMark? I just dont think its worth losing a 150 dollar processor.

vladimir · 08-July-03, 06:59 PM

how would they know if i was ocin or it died by itself?

and gues wut SNDS happens from high fsb too...

TekXoID · 08-July-03, 07:11 PM

Not so Clown, where did you read that? People dont know what causes it so they assume.

High FSB does not cause SNDS
