Who's got the highest O/C with AIR Cooling on a Barton 2500

jjmd · Oct 22, 2003, 08:04 PM

Well i have mine @ 11.5 and 222 stable well some what

, Not Bad on air, well alot of air. Its the AQXEA stepping

DriveEuro · Oct 22, 2003, 11:45 PM

What's the equivalent to? XP 3600 or something like that?

~~craig588~~ · Oct 22, 2003, 11:48 PM

real nice.

AMD is adding 200 points for ever 100MHz. (3000+=2.1GHz 3200+=2.2GHz) It seems like its a 3900+.

dipstick · Oct 23, 2003, 03:45 AM

That's the best I've seen out of any Barton. Very nice!

DriveEuro · Oct 23, 2003, 05:02 AM

He's prolly pumping like 1.95+volts through it though.

jjmd · Oct 23, 2003, 09:18 AM

Nope only 1.75, my board doesn't go any higher than 1.8 volts, and it seems to be pretty stable @ 1.75 i tried 1.8 with no better results. Any lower and locks up some times. Might be the memory to as that is sitting at 1.8 volts with timings 4332. And a wee bit high on the fs buss @ 222 with Cosair 3200 1 stick 512. If i drop to 11 and try to go beyond 222 fs buss it wont post. And at mult 12 @ any thing wont do anything. So till i get faster memory this is it! 11.5 @ 222 good for 2.55 ghz. The funny thing to the higher i go it dosen't seem to get much hotter. I hope not with all these dam case fans.

And is that a problem? I have been pushing 2.16V though my proc and its perfectly fine.

thats a wee bit high... !

Wonder how many waeks your cpu will live on current like that

Judas · Oct 23, 2003, 02:01 PM

i have my barton 2500+ at 2.2ghz using stock cooling.... and the standard voltage along with FSB..... only multi change...and stable at idle of 32-36*C...

PSH, yeah, I wonder how well he can hear considering he has said he runs his Tornado at full speed.

Judas · Oct 23, 2003, 03:11 PM

.....nothing compared to a grain vac or airyation fan.... now imagine one of those on the side of your machine....... (10,000-35,000 CF/M)

Judas · Oct 23, 2003, 03:11 PM

er.g...i can also see the power bill as well......

Warpy · Oct 23, 2003, 04:05 PM

I can run my 2500+ on 227 x 10.5 and thats with 1.77v - temps hit 52 though on idle

I run a 208 x 11 though which gives me 47 degrees at 1.72v

jjmd · Oct 23, 2003, 09:19 PM

Well to tell you the truth, Its not really all that noisy, compared to the 10 birds i have. 2 Cockatoos, 1 Double Yellow head, 1 Orange wing, 1 Red lord, 2 Cockatails, 1 Love bird, And 2 Parikeits. All making noise and talking at one time. Well its just like a Zoo in my house, along with the 5 cats i have, and to top it off I also have 2 kids that make more noise than all of them. So 8 Tornado case fans at full speed have nothing on the rest of the house.

The funny thing after awail you really dont pay attention to the noise. HEHE

Judas · Oct 24, 2003, 01:59 AM

jjmd · Oct 24, 2003, 06:23 AM

Well the nice thing about the case i have is that 4 of them go on the front , so the hard drives get a nice cool bath of air,"like 336 cfms of it"

1 of the fans is on the side of the case blows on the 9700 pro and the memory. 2 sit on the back of the case to exhaust, and 1 on the ThermaleRight A 800 heatsink.

Then there is 2 on the Enermax Psu 1 exhaust right above the Cpu and 1 out the back. They are the stock fans at full speed.

And to tell u the truth the case dose a really good job of sound proffing.

U just wouldn't want it in your bed room, Or your wife would probly through it out the window.

Or the people who live next store might think your running an Airport.

Judas · Oct 24, 2003, 01:12 PM

jjmd · Oct 24, 2003, 08:58 PM

Well anyways, everybody that has or has had a Barton 2500 let me know what yours maxxed out at. Plus what memory you were using at what speed, and the MotherBoard Type.

Omegadrive · Oct 24, 2003, 09:07 PM

My specs can be seen in my signature, I also have a Barton 2500+.

jjmd · Oct 25, 2003, 03:35 PM

Well after dropping the volts from 1.75 to the stock 1.65, it seems to over clock higher? I know sounds wierd, it goes to 12 @ 222. I tried 12.5 but with no luck. Wonder why these Bartons O/C better at stock volts. So now im at 2.66 ghz, And thats on air. Have been playing with it at this speed and seems stable has not crashed or froze. But it dont seem that much faster than 3200 in real world apps and opening new windows. But The Fps on Flight sim 2004 are about 50 to 60 frames faster than 3200. So i cant come plain to much.

jjmd · Oct 30, 2003, 09:05 AM

Has anybody else had better luck O/Cing the 2500 @ stock volts????

**Roadee** · Oct 30, 2003, 09:37 AM

If you are getting that kind of over clocks you should do the benchmarks and enter the ATI overclocking contest. Or at least do some benchmarks and post the links. Talk is cheap....show us some benchies

Judas · Oct 30, 2003, 11:22 AM

.....if i had a better cooler..... i would try to push it.....but it's hard to say as my fsb/agp/pci ratios are not good enough to push the fsb....

jjmd · Oct 30, 2003, 06:55 PM

Benchmarks coming soon. 3DMARK01 se wont save my score it keeps saying the CPU frequencies are veried, or something to that effect. why is this? Plus my Memory score in Pc mark is low because of the memory. Waiting to get faster and or 2 sticks of memory so i can run dual cannel. Give it another week and i should be abille to start challenging for fastest rig.

Any help on the 3DMARK01 problem would be great.

jjmd · Nov 5, 2003, 03:32 PM

Update.

Well running the 2500 @ these specs has killed my Barton. I had the Barton @ 12/222 stock volts for 2.66 Ghz stable some what. So i started running it at 11.5 /222 2.55 Ghz stock volts, and it was very stable. I was running benches on it for a couple of days when it started locking up, then it started not posting. So i started dropping the buss speed to get it to post i was down to 11 /212. Was working for a couple of hours when it starded locking up again. I thought maybe it was the Memory so i barrowed a stick of memory and tried that. That wasn't it. So i kept dropping the mult and buss just to get it to post. Now im down to 10 /222 and it posts then it dont. Man i think this219 2500 barton is dead. So i put my 2200 back in thinking maybe the Mob died. The 2200 works fine @ 10/ 219, so its not the Mob. I put the 2500 back in and it wont even run 9.5 @ 210. After trying everything the Poor BARTON 2500 wont work at all.

Well i guess i learned my lesson. The Barton just couldn't handle these high clocks. Being that i killed the CPU i didn't even RMA it back to Newegg. So my credit card just got wacked 92 bucks. Why is the 2500 going up in price. Didn't AMD just drop prices?

So i guess i will just run the new 2500 @ 11 / 200, for awhile. As im not rich. Hey cant complain 3200 for 92 bucks!

Has anybody else killed a barton yet?????

It did 2.66GHz at stock voltages?? That is alittle hard to swallow, but I guess its possible. I say just rma the thing and get another. I know it's not the right thing to do but hey, we all do bad things

jjmd · Nov 5, 2003, 03:52 PM

I thought long and hard about Rma it back to Newegg, but they have been so wonderful with there products and customer service i would feel really bad as im the idiot who killed it.
