Hey guys, I finally reached my goal. I got 2000MHz on my ram stable in Prime 95 (finally). It involved a few tweaks, in regards to blowing a fan directly on the IC’s and loosening the tRCD to 10, however the rest of the timings remain the same much like in my 32m stable run. [...]

Hey guys. I managed to hit another 32m stable result, and was able to lower the tRAS back to 15. 32m stable means that this ram speed is stable for almost any benchmark and most daily computing. However it is not 100% until it has passed at least 3 hours of blend on Prime 95. [...]

Introduction Over the recent months I have watched and observed as the Phenom II CPU found its niche within various enthusiast communities and online forums. Users have been provided with an excellent, all around, 45nm AMD quadcore. However, there is one factor that people still find confusing and unclear. Overclocking the Phenom II. Why are [...]

Hey guys, I did some further testing at 2000MHz ram speeds. I discovered that my settings for my 1m Super Pi run were not entirely stable for 32m testing. So I revised a few sub-timings and was successfully able to run 32m. This involved loosening the tRC and tRAS. Keep in mind that this run [...]

Hey everyone As you may know, the release of the new AMD Phenom II X6 chips, combined with their new 890FX chipset platforms bring a lot of changes to the table. Due to changes in chip electronics, they have massive overclocking headroom, not just for the cores but also for the IMC (northbridge frequency). The [...]

My two part series about overclocking with subzero winter air. I will be adding on to this next winter. Part 1 Back for my most recent blog post after a prolonged break from the OC scene, I bring to you some fun winter air testing. I used the same setup as previously. This mainly consists [...]

Tuned my ram for this run. This allowed me to lower the NB speed and still beat my old result in my slushbox thread.

|Slappa’s Slushbox #2| @ techreaction.net I hit 4.806GHz all 6 cores on my Phenom II X6 1090T.

Hey guys. I’ve just about had it right now and heres why. I settled in last night for a cold air OC session with my usual setup. Popped open the window and began to OC. Halfway through bootup my comp simply shut down. I determined the problem to be my motherboard (MA790FXT-UD5P) , it seemed [...]
