6300 overclock with stock fan!!!!!!!

Here are my parts:
E6300 @2.8ghz
DDR800 @stock 5-5-5-16
Gigabyte 965P-DS3 Rev 1.0 F10 Bios

Here's my stable OC settings:
PCI-E Frequency = 105
I had the video card instability problem others encountered before using 100 mhz -- ya know torture test is stable but when you reboot, the screen goes blank but HD is booting, BIOS resets to default. In my case i had this as an additional: my video setup in the nvidia control panel gets dark after sometime.

Setting this to 105 solved it (I tried 101mhz but the video setup get's lighter. The reboot problem is gone though. Did not bother to try 102, just went to 105).

And this problem is still present in the F10 bios.

FSB: 200
Mem Multiplier: 2
System Voltages: All Normal
E6300 is B2 stepping, default vcore is at 1.325 under DS3.

2.8 ghz can be achieved under default vcore using this DS3.

Here are my suggestions:
Try OC'ing using the default voltages, and add to vcore if unstable.
Don't immediately go to a higher voltage without knowing that the previous one is unstable. This is to lessen the heat from your processor.

Also the MCH is already hot, don't add voltage to this unless you tried all options but your system is still unstable.

ok i decided my temps are too high for comfort and am now back at stock 😀

getting 45c idle on coretemp

Well, i decided to leave mines at 3.5ghz. At 1.4375v. Tcase 47c and tjunction at 57c all at idle. Once on load Tcase 56c and Tjunction at 69c. All this on stock cooler except i did remove the original fan and put a loud fast thermaltake fan and secured it with zip ties. Sounds like a household vacum but worth it.

lol youre really psuhing it too far man!

i decided to make an experiment..i kept my 2.33Ghz OC but on lower vore (1.29) and guess what?! i get lower temps (even lower than stock speeds on stock voltage!)

im now idling at 47-48 Coretemp/Speedfan core/TAT and getting up to 62 load (but mostly on 58c) im still testing for stablitly though but already passed OCCT test 1 hour and am now approaching 1 hour orthos prime

and this is on a 29-30c room temp!

ill try to make my vcore lower (maybe down to 1.28 and see what my sweet spot really is)

@pinoyako

So you decided to lower the voltage. Let us know what voltage you are stable. You should run ORTHOS for about 8 hours to see if the processor is stable.

 

[pinoyako]

im currently at 1.28 ( i fugfured my voltage vdroops to 1.28 anyway so why not make it my vcore) and ran the test for 2 hours..unfortunately, i dont habe the time to run it for 8 hours as im always out of the house..ill try if i can 😀

 

[sinnn]

Wow, ya... those are really cold temps there. I havent ran orthos that long.. that longest I ran it was 2 hours. Maybe i should....

 

[pinoyako]

at 33c though, my idle sits at 51c i want even lower temps on this stock cooler..
