I flashed in Windows to Bios 1.6 yesterday and my temps are now 10 degrees C cooler .
I know they had probs with accurate temp reading before but come on 10C cooler ???
So with a Barton 2800 OC'd bout 300 mhz I am running average
29 C, THEN what Abit and my SLK-800 is tellin me is that I have loads of more head room to OC ???

yea man that's correct, i had a 44 C before i updated now i'm at 37C... Its much more accurate, and yea the slk does a great job of cooling heh

According to CPU Database.com, the highest O/C on your proccessor is 2505MHz w/1.75 vCore and a VAPOCHILL PE for cooling.

O/C using multiplyer for more stability, or FSB for more performance (but risk of O/S curruption)

I do not know what to consider a max as but I think 2400-2500MHz is attainable

Are you using mbm5 or the abit software?

Rokk1972 · 07-July-03, 08:26 PM

After I flashed to the new BOIS my on board temps matched my panel temps (using probe) and pror to the flash the temps were 10-12 degrees differnt. Now they are the same. Finially a good BOIS update!!!!

Nice temps with that SLK NoSlak. With the weather in Phoenix my comp boots at close to that.

That highest for the 2800 seems kinda low TekXoid. I hit 2578 with my 2600 and had room left over.

Crank it up NoSlak...watch your load temps carefully though. Idle temps can stay fairly low even at a high overclock without a load. Try something like UT2K3 once you think you're stable to see if you really are stable. It will let you know fairly fast if your not.
