4.1 GHZ Phenom 1090T w 16 GB of DDR3 1333 Overclocking

[TheOverClocker]

Hello folks I am trying to overclock a Phenom 1090 for 24/7 stability as an encoding box. My system specs are as follows

Lian Li PC-A77f
ASUS Crosshair IV Formula AM3 AMD 890FX
Corsair AX 850
Corsair Domiator 16 GB 1333 @1.60
Phenom 1090t @ 4.1 (250*16.5)
4.5 TB raid 0 array
1 TB System drive
XFX Radeon 5770 1 GB
Thermalright Venomous X

So right now my best 12 hour stable of OCCT is at 4.0 200*20 and I am looking to make my rig a little faster and stable at 4.1 which I think is the max for the chip that I have and my current memory configuration.

Here are a few screen shots



I am also trying to max out my mem sub system performance right now I am just under 10GB/s in MaxMem2 and in Everest





The 12 hour stable screen shot is different from the everest and MaxMem2 shots because I am trying to keep with 3000 CPU/NB. After 200 HT Ref the next frequencie for 1333 and 3000 is 250 and then after than 3000 at 275 with the me slightly overclocked. I plan on trying 1666 but dont know if it will take that much cowbell

Why don't you play with the unlocked multi?

I have I was up to 286*14 at one time but that doesnt allow me to get the most outta my ram since its either 145* or 18** which is either to slow or to fast. 250 gave me 3000 on the NB and 1333/1666 on the mem so far i am stable for 5 hours at 250*16.5. I benched 200*20 and the latencies, L1 and L2 caches performed worse per Everest and MaxMem than using 250*16

You might wanna try some long gaming sessions to verify stability.
The OC I had was stable in everything till one day I was playing source based left 4 dead 2 and I got a bsod.

Have you ran some LinX? I'd try that too just to see what you get from maxing out your ram.

My fav is StressCPU. Lets you know in seconds if your cpu OC is stable.
If you run it from windows a command window will open showing it running. If your not stable the window will close so fast you won't be sure it opened at all. Run from command window to check.

1.52v for 24/7 is kind a crazy but if it's running cool then all is good. I needed 1.52v to run 4.2Ghz, for 4Ghz I am stable at 1.47v with hours and hours of gaming and and everything else. I'm using a Corsair H50 for cooling and 100% CPU load my temps top out around 50c and with winter coming I may be able to turn things up a little more..

I run my 965 @ 4.1Ghz with 1.55v. I've had it at this voltage for about 6 months now with no issues at all. This is with a H50 cooler. Throw a water cooler on it and crank up the volts. It'll either work or it won't.

Hmmm, heard of it but never tryed it.

Is it better then OCCT?

[TheGlasMan]

Won't say it's better, but it is quick. Like the rest a tool that does a job.
It tests the SSE part of the cpu. Hard. If you can run it a few minutes your ready to move up. Your final overclock will be slower then prime types but you won't get blind sided. (I believe the sse units don't overclock as well as the rest of the cpu) I have never run it hours. F@H is based on the same program, a couple of minutes and you are ready to fold 24/7. New versions may be multicore or you just start the #of windows you need to load all your cores.
