Overclocker's Worksheet

CRE · 18-May-04, 06:06 PM

A while ago I put together a small worksheet to help me track stable O/C settings. Well, as time went on it grew.... and grew.... Anyway, I've been using this for a few months and find it quite helpful in estimating cooling requirements, tracking results, and generally trying to figure out what to tweak next. I figured I might as well clean it all up and post it here for your use and abuse. Please let me know what you think.

The Worksheet is a spreadsheet available in either M$ Excel or OpenOffice formats. I do not have Excel, so please let me know if there are any formatting issues.

Right-click on the link and select "Save Target..." to download.

First, the readme contains general ino regarding use:

Worksheet:
Excel http://home.earthlink.net/~crehren/O...sheet%20.1.xls
OpenOffice http://home.earthlink.net/~crehren/O...sheet%20.1.sxc

All three zipped: http://home.earthlink.net/~crehren/O...orksheet.1.zip

What I'm really interested in hear back about are the tempature estimates. Please, if you feel so inclined, enter your rigs current settings and compare your CPU's temps to the estimates. The accuracy of the estimates may vary, depending largely upon your case's airflow or water temps. In which case entering the internal case temp or water temp as the ambient temp will improve the accuracy. Since each proc is different I doubt they will ever be 100% accurate.

Very nice Cre! This may come in handy fairly soon on my next experiment. Rep for this one.....

Lokie · 18-May-04, 07:07 PM

I've been playing with this sheet for the last couple of days, it's pretty good.

Wordbiker · 18-May-04, 08:37 PM

Looks like I've been too generous as of late to give you rep for the job well done, but you certainly deserve it. Thanks for the useful tool!

CRE · 18-May-04, 09:50 PM

Thanks for the replies everyone. And thanks to everyone who agreed to test it out for me prior to this post.

If anyone has any suggestions on additions let me know. I'm also planning on posting a smaller version just for calculations.

Oh, and definitely thanks for all the rep points!!!

Cool Job CRE

Rep points coming your way

CRE · 20-May-04, 09:00 PM

Wow guys, thanks for the great response. I don't know how on earth I'm gonna top that. Hehe.... my rep point more than doubled from one post!!!

I'll be posting a slimmer version, most likely, this weekend.

So, now that you've all had a chance to play around with it, is there anything I should add?
