About LinkBacksthe multiplier is locked on the 3700 so you need to increase the FSB,Originally Posted by bindo
default: multiplier =12 FSB =200
so: Multiplier =12 FSB =216/217 = 2600MHz
you prob wanna mess about with the HTT too, but i dont understand tha.

On mine the multiplier is 11. I just slowly increased the FSB until it faltered, then slowly increased the voltage till it was stable again , repeat till you reach the desired level.
UKMuFFIN = Its already £500.. you expect me to send it to you for free as well.. : P
Getting ur 3700+ all the way up to FX-55 is easy-peasy.. But leaving it there stable is entirely a different matter. I have no experiences with 1MB cache chips but my rev E3 3500+ needs plenty of juice for it to behave itself at 2.7Ghz(1.6V as opposed to a def 1.4V)..
But the general rule would be raising ur HTT and keeping voltage and LDT in check everytime u hit a BSOD solid wall.. You should also keep ur memory limit in check, unless u run them over a 'safe' divider.. most boards will either have ONE weak divider which will often screw things up..
Me want Ultrabook
I'm running it at 1.45v and its stable, will experiment with a slight increase though...

Okay little update, I noticed when running BF2 with my OC'ed San Diego that I got artefacts. I then upped the voltage to 1.4625v and its much better, rock solid. I have no idea how far I can take this, I've read it tops out at about 2.7GHz but I don't wanna go there with my stock cooling, I need a decent heatsink first.
So if your interested i've got it currently on: 237MHz x 11.0 @ 1.4625v

bf2 is meant to be a great way to test an overclocked system as its such a hog. alot of people have had problems with oc'ing and this game, maybe upping the voltage a little will help though
Interestingly BF2 isn't that fab for Processor overclocking, it is about the most unprocessor reliant modern game, it makes very little difference. I use Pifast and BF1942 among other things to see the difference.

Bringing this back from the dead slightly, but with my awesome new Zalman CNPS9500 I got yesterday I am now running 2.8GHz very stable, thats FX-57 speed! An FX-57 is £557 more!!!

im extremly happy with my 3700 even at stock its seriously fast and they are surposed to overclock well
