Hi Guyz
This is my very first post on Hexus so go easy on me and I'm sorry if sommet similar has been posted previously.
Anyway, to the problem, back in july when i got this rig set up, I oc'd the 3700 up to 2.5ghz and scored 16498 on 3D '03, I thought i'd leave it at that for the time being. Days passed when i came across a a review of the 3700 and saw it was clocked to roughly 2.8 on air cooling, so i thought "y not?". So I've stepped up the fsb slowly but surely to 2.8, here's the CP-Z Stats:
Core Speed - 2812.2MHz
Multiplier - x11.0
Bus speed 255.5 MHz
HT Link 766.9 MHz
Voltage - 1.392 V
So when i stepped it to 2.7ish I did the 3D '03 again and to my amazement, disappointment, anguish, total disbelief....... it scored 10702.
A: why?!
B: WHY!!!!!!!?????
C: Is it something really simple I have not noticed?
I haven't had any probs with crashes or anything, I not run Prime95 or such as yet, but it does seem quite stable.
The system is as follows: Athlon 64 3700, Asus A8N-sli mobo, OcUK 2x512Mb **Correction, It is DDR400, not 200** PC3200, Asus 7900gt 256Mb. Those the important parts anyway
All help and advice is welcome, and don't forget, I'm quite new to the OC scene so speak newbie
Thanks all
Neal
