![]() ![]() Running at a clock speed of 3.0 GHz the E8400 has an effective speed of 52 which is 85 slower than its modern day counterparts. The E8400 is included in our group tests simply as a reference point due to its huge success back in its day. With those settings above, CPU-z should show your OC with 1:1 ratio, hopefully. The Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 is amongst the fastest of the Core 2 Duo range of now nearly ten year old CPUs. Intel Core 2 Duo E4300 desktop CPU: detailed specifications, side by side comparison, FAQ, pictures and more from CPU-World. To sum up set:ġ.) get CPU-Z so we all have a better lock at whats going onĢ.) set your memory clock to 533 and if you have ram multi set to 2ģ.) set memory voltage to 2.1 (shouldn't hurt it)Ĥ.) leave FSB 235 for 2.11 OC to further test it with prime or othos.ĥ.) push FSB 245 to test that, and continue till you hit your target speed. Not sure about the MB you have by gigabyte, if you have a ram multi, be sure to set it to 2, from what I understand.Īnd set the memory clock to 533. *Side note: my bios shows the full # spec's - so kinda confusing, so the FSB would be read 266 on other MB bios. :lol:įor what I have setup for my P6N SLI 650i MB, I have the: That was my main problem, I didn't think it would work. I did have a blank screen problem, but I got it to finally boot. Now with the memory, after going through some good info provided from another thread, to get a 1:1 ratio, try to be sure your running that DDR2 667 memory at 533 speed. All other voltage should be fine at their stock settings since it looks like your gradually increasing speed, instead of jumping directly to the speed you want. One thing that could be holding you back, is perhaps the memory voltage. Or you could just do a screen shot on the CPU page, and Memory tab. Either using the validation like the one I did for my dads E4300. I don't think your ram is holding you back. I would suggest the ACF7P for the CPU and a Zalman VF700 or VF900 for the GPU. ![]() Getting aftermarket cooling for either the CPU or GPU has several benefits: You can OC the GPU with Coolbits or other programs My friend said that he OC'd his card quite well with the Zalman, and that the stock heatsink is crap. It came with a Zalman VF700CU aftermarket heatsink. I have a friend with an ACF7P who's Pentium D 805 is at 3.7ghz.įor the GPU: I got that same GPU today from a friend. With that HSF you should be easily able to OC to 3ghz. You could definately OC the e4300 to 2.6ghz with stock cooling, although I would recommend getting Aftermarket cooling such as an Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro for $30-35. 25c cant be right unless you live in Antarctica.
