I am at 4GHZ

[LUZR4LIFE]

I will try and push this higher. This is after the 1st night of having this 555BE.

I don't understand the use of it, you're really pushing it, until you see the smoke

I see a difference in performance and my temps get no higher than 40C. I also wanted to hit the 4GHZ mark. I will see what I can do with it as a TRI and QUAD also.

I think a processor can successfully overclock to at least 40%. I m using Intel dual core E200 2.2 Ghz @ 3.1 Ghz with no pain.

Well I could overclock my Core i5, but I just don't trust that Intel stock cooler. I will have to invest in better and more silent cooler like Scythe Zipang2, before doing any overclocking.

Yeah, I have that Vendetta. I would like to get a better one but maybe at a later date. I just primed for 2 hours with X4@3.5. I am going to clock it higher since the temps were fine. So yes, I got a 555BE that runs like a 965. :thumbsup_anim:

now all you need to do is reach 88 miles per hour !

Welcome to 4GHz club :thumbsup_anim:

Testing with LINX 20 loops is strongly recommended to be sure, that Your OC is stable :icon_cool:

Is that better than OCCT. I will be testing my X4@3.5 tonight.

That is insane.

I was drinking most of the day yesterday so I never updated my 555BE testing. I have it stable as a Quad@3.5 with 1.4v.

i overclocked 2ghz processor to 2.10 and it frequently got overheated and restarted automatically now back at 2ghz.

What CPU was that? That much of a jump shouldn't even cause a change it heat.

Agreed, at which temperature PC restarted? Are you using stock cooler?

Like N1K said. Most CPU's can be upped 100-300mhz on a stock cooler.
