Overclocking the AMD Phenom II fun!

To put it in easy I've been overclocking my system to find the right amount of volts, FSB Speed, and Multipliers necessary to keep a stable overclock.

I just figured I share my fun results. I say fun because of the trial and error of shutting down and rebooting many a times.

AMD Phenom II X4 940 (3.0GHz)

Stable Overclock 1 (Under a 3 hour stress test on all 4 cores at once)

3400 MHz (3.4GHz)
FSB = 200
Multiplier = 17x
CPU Voltage = 1.3750 (New Voltage Test and Passed 3-hour stress test)
FSB Voltage = 1.2000

Stable Overclock 2 (Under a 3 hour stress test on all 4 cores at once)

3500 MHz (3.5GHz)
FSB = 200
Multiplier = 17.5x (17.5 * 200 = 3500)
CPU Voltage = 1.4000
FSB Voltage = 1.2000

My next step is to increase the FSB(Front Side Bus) Speed to 210 and archive a slightly higher clock so that I don't have to clock the Multiplier and CPU voltage as high.

This is a first step, I'll post the others when I finish overclocking to 4.0GHz.

I'm running a water cooled system and the system is staying anywhere from 34C to 40C. So I'm not real worried about the heat.

Work List
疲れていますから 寝むってありますね。 むずかしいです。 また、ケーキ屋で ケーキを食べていました。

I've considered being a translator, but I dunno. It feels like a lot of work. If someone gets angry then I have to deal with it, you know? I'd rather just relax.
