4Ghz Overclock using AMD OverDrive on air cooling

[max124891]

1 Year comments my fx can get 4.2 easily >:D

[RaulORamires]

Hi sir, how about Bios options? I can ignore then?

[Blaze11000]

do you download this??

[KiLoCinema]

Anyone else hear Superman (It's Not Easy) - Five For Fighting in the background?

[oCannabusdriver]

@KiLoCinema no, i think its in your head. you should see a therapist...

[OfficalJemy]

Do you have any idea what could be casuing me not to be able to change the x16 higher manually? i cannot go higher then 16x for some reason. but then again where it says "advanced clock etc.." in yours it says CMOS items in mine with a Icon with a Dragon wich says "fusion" is that something in the bios i have to disable?

[TheNoochM]

does it matter what motherbaord you have? because i have the exact same CPU as you, black edition 955 x4 phenom II, and the core multiplier on my AMD overdrive its capped at 16, and i think its because im using a motherboard that doesn't support the "BE" part of my chip am i in the ball park here, or am i doing something wrong with the program? i have a biostar a880gu3 mobo

[SepSama]

you can do better actually...by picking it up at 18$ like i just did along with a 955BE, can't w8 till it ships!

[DAVERUKY]

loving your temps.

[airsoftbro123]

Is this only for the spider platform? or could i use this with a AMD athlon 2 Dual core?

[ATPKLM31510]

@airsoftbro123 I'm using it right now with the AMD athlon II x2 250. I'm up to 3.2GHz stock cooler

[airsoftbro123]

@ATPKLM31510 very nice! if was going to overclock, it would probably be a practice on some single core pentium or something lol

[ATPKLM31510]

@airsoftbro123 Now I'm up to 3.3Ghz, haven't gone past 43C. I'm running the built in stress test, doing it for 30minutes. & that's probably a good idea haha. I have an old modded P4 just laying around. I should mess with that to get used to it.

[airsoftbro123]

@ATPKLM31510 haha. ive never overclocked before, and i probably wont for a while

[ATPKLM31510]

@airsoftbro123 It's a bit scary if your OCing in the BIOS (done it before) lol. AMD overdrive is alot easier. I'm new to it too, i've only overclocked this CPU, lol it was my first <3.

[iAmAlby]

@ATPKLM31510 How did you do it? That's my target Ghz, same processor. Ha

[ATPKLM31510]

@iAmAlby Go to settings and set it to advanced. Then you will be able to change everything except voltages. I do it all through the BIOS. It's more stable. And you use Overvoltage, 0.10% picks the voltage up from 1.4v to like 1.5 if i remember. The better the board the better the Overclock also. Just watch your memory times, Northbridge and all that. Because the Athlon does not have an unlocked multi. Ive, gotten my athlon to 3.8Ghz, not to stable though. 3.7-3.7Ghz is were i find my best clock.

[ATPKLM31510]

@ATPKLM31510 3.5-3.7Ghz sorry

[noobehvc]

I Can't do Overclock in Advanced mode ¬¬

[StealthNinja2]

I have an amd phenon x4 945 quad with a msi 870ag54 mb. I'm using the amd overdrive program and a lot of the tabs are grayed out, I can't click on them, also under the clock/voltage tab it says that the target speed is 3000 mhz and is running at only 800. The sliders of each core multiplier is set to the max by default and it's only at 800mhz. What's going on here? I know t his cpu is overclockable. Please help.

[cursed1815]

You can let it find one or you can utilize the more advanced features to find the best o.c you can manually, if you watched my video you should understand these principals.

[winstonngo]

so u just let this amd utility find u a stable oc?

[cursed1815]

@winstonngo You can allow the software to do your O.C, however with research and practice you can manually O.C significantly higher. Overdrive is to allow anyone to achieve higher performance regardless of there previous experience.

[TheDman52]

ok I have a question, I overclocked my AMD Phenom 925 from 3.25 to 3.3GHZ ( stock is 2.8)and the benchmark when down. Anyone know why, thanks

[cursed1815]

@TheDman52 several things could have happened. PSU could be to weak, if your CPU does not have an unlocked multiplier, and you increased your FSB to achieve the O.C you could be stressing other components of your PC or many other issues. Check out the forums at overclockers

[syafiie125]

help me me plzzz....my chipset 870...can i use this sofware (amd over drive)

[cursed1815]

@syafiie125 Refer to AMD's official website support for that info

[AbeNicxs]

izit possible to me if i clock my AMD Phenom II X4 965 BE to 3.7GHz if my PSU only 550Watt?

[cursed1815]

@AbeNicxs I have never looked into a formula for determining that. i use a 750 Watt and have an Nvidia GTX 465 Fermi GPU, 3 HDD and 1 solid state drive, a water cooling system, killer nic, 2 DVD drives card reader and a lot of usb equipment

[noobehvc]

@AbeNicxs I have a HD 6870 OC and a X4 B55 4.0GHz (Corsair H-50) with a Power Supply CoolerMaster GX 550Watts without a Issue xD

[bobcashflow50]

@AbeNicxs yes

[elementskaterforlyf3]

Good video, but the music is a bit annoying. :/

[killamc786]

@cursed1815 woww is it stablee ? ?

[SidewindR14K]

Hey i dont know shit about oc or any of that. i got a 1090T and i just used that Auto Clock, can anyone tell me what could happen if i just leave it it on auto clock then just the normal mhz it comes with. hope this makes sense

[evolutionpr]

@SidewindR14K

The 1090t has turbocore or turboboost or w/e it's called. Essentially it's the "autoclock" feature on overdrive.

[blowupuate13]

WHY DOES THIS PROGRAM NOT WORK WITH 890FX CHIPSETS!!!!!!! WWWWWWWHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYY

[dareheaven2]

just a question, basically i asume to overclock, you typically just increase multipliers, bit by bit, until you reach your maximum posible setting (that is stable), but i read about increasing voltage, when do i know that i have to increase voltage?

[evolutionpr]

@dareheaven2

You actually in crease the FSB/HT LINK/NB and when your system crashes @ boot or system stability testing then you increase the voltage.

[dareheaven2]

@evolutionpr ah thanks, thing is i done it now, i got up to 4.0 without any crashes for like a month, althought if i overclock to around 4.3 it will start crashing no matter how high ill raise the voltage (with the temp still at around 50c) so im confused why

[Woker7620]

Tired of your slow ass computer?

Did you know that by overclocking you can get an extra 12 fps in your games, without even having to get another fan? The guide on my site is really cheap and helps you to overclock your computer, step by step, making it better than a high end thousand dollar one!

Buy it now at Tryeus {d0t} net

[RunningLemonStudios]

The music in the background made this the saddest overclocking video I think I've ever seen XD

[Edge0fPain]

The maximum multiplier my AMD Overdrive lets me go to is x16, should I change the ht .ref clock to get a higher frequency?

[evolutionpr]

@Edge0fPain

Yes. You have to watch your ram also though, the ref clock adjusts the PCI-E bus & the RAM bus.

[Edge0fPain]

@evolutionpr

No worries, found out how to increase the maximum allowed multiplier :D

[AiMProDiiGy]

I got the same processor ;P

[kimi625]

whats so cool with this?! anyone can get that kind of clock by using overdrive... u just need to know how to read :D

[upplsuckimcool16]

x4 not times 4 dude x4 is only saying it's a quad core! like x3 will be tri core and x 2 will be.... THAT RIGHT DUAL CORE!!!

[cursed1815]

@upplsuckimcool16 I do not understand what this post was even for..... everyone knows what you posted thats "common bay horse sense" if i miss spoke in a sentence i appologize, otherwise this post of yours was simply proving your a D!CK

[L00peey]

@cursed1815 i used ur voltage and multiplier to clock mine :).

[error262]

it has 4cores at 3.2 so it is "times 4" and it is a quad core...

[Apolloisbest]

@cursed1815 does this program underclock the cpu and gpu when idle because since i have downloaded it my cpu is running at .8ghz idle and when gaming it jumps to its normal 3.4ghz speed...if so does it affect performance at all...and would you shut it off?

[mmike422]

great vid bro worked great for me locked phenom x2 555 and oc so far 3.4

[Sparta2310]

Great vid Cursed, everything looks stable except your taste in music O.o

LOL

I kid I kid!

Very interesting helpful video man thank you.

[MICKMOFFAT]

Hi i have a AMD Phenom II x4 945 black edition and i have a corsair H50 cooler and i was woundering how high could i overclock ?? can i overclock

[samdahir]

Its says AMD OVerDrive Cannot Detect AMD 7-series chipset on this computer

[Hy3RiDrENegADE]

@samdahir You need a 7 or 8 series chipset you can't have one :p

[Dojorno]

its not easy to be me.....

[tallandme13]

@cursed1815 You should really reduce your voltage. I got to 4ghz stable at 1.5 v

[FELIX0123]

how do u make overdrive start @ start up?

[snipski0894]

I like rape, do you?

[mushufreak]

This was a great video thanks for showing all the features including that smart profile one, i thought that was neat and useful. thumbs up!

[67CopperHead]

why dont AMD overdrive set you clocks in the bios mien never did and i had it at 3.6Ghz

[KontererClean]

how 19x CPU multiplier i can only use 15 time(s)!

and voltage cant be change higher then 1.3V

[VengeanceCo]

LOL @ ACCENT

[mushufreak]

@VengeanceCo his accent isnt funny....

[daharvster]

Do you think I could achieve this using the CPU Cooler that comes with the Phenom 965?

[Dearth123]

@daharvster LOOOOL, NO

[randir14]

I just OC'ed my 955 to 3.8 ghz and GTA IV is running way better. I'm also using the stock cooler and temperatures haven't risen at all from when I was at 3.2 ghz, but I won't risk going higher.

[btnerd]

Love this video ! Man your the best!

[adolf512]

My temp is 65c 3.6 GHZ when fully loaded

[Chopsta123]

does overdrive work on AMD 8xx chipsets?

[67CopperHead]

@Chopsta123 amd overdrive only works on 790GX and 790 Mobo or 780

[kennethken9]

nice great! plss i need help,i got my amd 925 x4 2.8ghz... i want to oc it but my multiplier is only14x and it is the maximum.can i get any better??i havent oc yet..i hope somebody help me.thank you...

[Geoxile]

What's a good voltage for 3.6 to 3.8 GHz?

[tallandme13]

@Geoxile you can usualy do 3.8 on stock voltage, but it wouldnt hurt to bump it up a bit

[zugzug84]

Why the music`?

[UTubeLightBulb]

wat cooler are you using?

[cursed1815]

@UTubeLightBulb At the time of this build i was still on air cooling using a OCZ Vendetta 2 i later got a 4.1Ghz O.C when i switched to water cooliong. However i used the Kandalf LCS liquid cooling embeded case which i think is significantly inferior to a custom compiled water system.

[67CopperHead]

my tepms was idle 32c max 59c wen i did prime 95 i hit 71c but i never hit that

[67CopperHead]

yea i got mine to 3.6Ghz with the 955 on stock cooler

[UTubeLightBulb]

Why can I only get to Multiplier x19.5 (3.9Ghz) before my system hangs before others who get up to 4.5Ghz (I have water cooling). I also did a voltage boost anyone explain please?

[dulisha]

@UTubeLightBulb see if you can get higher FSB and lower multiplier. You would have to play with it, whats your CPU revision? C2 or C3 ?

[kolofagos]

if i don't know what to change, can i use the aauto o/c? my cpu is amd ii x4 955 BE

[rtb3796]

is this c3 955? also did you keep cool and Quite on?

[2ar2betrY]

what ver. are you use i cant find a ver. how work help me....

[Maqnuslicious]

very innoing with the music..

[Rompiente]

good look description , thanks

Great pc :)

[Zenor18]

Why is your cpu so cool? Mine is at 40C idle @ 3.9..

[xibeleli]

I have the same overclock at 4hz (18x222) 1.45vcore, it seems more better than multiplier overclock 20x200

[TF2Pyrosux]

rofl texas accent

[cursed1815]

@TF2Pyrosux lol na its a carolina accent :P

[ComputerOverclock]

@cursed1815 Just moved away from the Carolinas! I'm missing it pretty bad.

[cursed1815]

@TF2Pyrosux North Carolina lol

[NOXXism]

I just my chip today and i already have it running at 4ghz! All i did was set 20x multiplier and bump the vcore to 1.425v 24/7 stable

[darbits2009]

wtf mi phenom gow to 40ª using termalteak org 2 and i have sniper mastercooler box

[cursed1815]

@darbits2009 appologies but i cant make sense or your question or comment.... ?

[11BlAcKjAcK90]

what's ur cpu-cooler?

[cursed1815]

@11BlAcKjAcK90 at the time it was the OCZ Vendetta 2

[yuriperiotto]

i used 3.8 and it was fine at stock voltage, tryed 4.0 with 2 + then stock voltage, about 1420 but i get the blue screen of death when trying to play something =/

[yuriperiotto]

i have the same processor, im running at 3.8 and i changed a lil bit my hd5770 clocks, running fine, but when i put 4.0 with 1.4102V and try to play sum gams, i get the blue screen of death

[moonshiry]

do you have to put the settings in the bios too? or just doing it in amd overdrive utility is fine?

[cursed1815]

no settings are changed for you in amd, dont adjust bios

[moonshiry]

why dont adjust the bios? if i just do it on the overdrive, ill have to keep setting it manually everytime i turn on my computer right? but if i do it in the bios, it will be overclocked 24/7

[cursed1815]

you can tell amd overdrive to start with windows :)

[cursed1815]

the way i use overdrive is to test/tweak my o.c you can try far more settings in way way less time then traditional bios o.c, then set bios when you get it tweaked out

[firesanker]

Your screen is really wide. Mine is wide too. I have a SAMSUNG Syncmaster P2450. I dont know, if it´s the same.

[cursed1815]

No it was a viewsonice 22"

I am now using Dual 24" asus Monitors

[madzane94]

ACC?

[cursed1815]

Room has independant cooling, ambient temp was anywhere from 11 - 17 degrees C this system is now water cooled and running stable in reg room temps in my new house, i will show updated vids of the new system in future, am preparing for a new baby ATM thats takes more then i thought in a new house haha

[moonshiry]

how do you even implement acc? im a noob at overclocking. I know its in the bios but... is it something simple like just enabling it? or do you have to set a digit

[madzane94]

>_> stable?

[cursed1815]

Rofl yes its stable or i wouldent put it on the net

[Skugpezz1]

@cursed1815

damn lier lets see prime for 1 hour

[wulomds]

please answer me: i overclocked my processor and i made it 3.3Mhz and i dunno why it usually 805Mhz and sometimes goes up to 3.3Mhz

[cursed1815]

it could be a few things, when i over volt my cpu to much it decrases the actual voltage and clock, have you over volted you cpu? also do you have adequate power supply in use? do you have software with your mobo that only overclocks as needed? have you tried o.c with bios? do you have the same problem if so?

[mintsiez]

do you have EPU intstaled

[wulomds]

@mintsiez i have done in. thank you

[trigun369]

its all about the ambeint temp

[Lalexa94]

How do you tune it

[cursed1815]

What do you mean how do you tune it?

[parabolamadness]

helpful vid ty =D

[zekans337]

I dont get it, I'm at 35c idle at 3.6Ghz.

Using a coolermaster v8 with AS5 thermal compound, antec 900 case with several fans, both exhaust and intake.

:|

[cursed1815]

@zekans337 What was the question? if your refering to your idle temp i have found that voltage jumps it up fast, did you increase that? if so there you go, otherwise u need to finish your q.

[zekans337]

Without the voltage increase I get BSOD under stress :/ I'm using my motherboards "auto adjust" now for the voltages, think its at 1.42 or something

[cursed1815]

@zekans337 does it still bsod if you have it set on factory settings? have you updated you bios? if not that is the first thing i would due, MAKE SURE YOU GET THE CORRECT UPDATE FOR BIOS TRIPLE CHECK B4 YOU USE THE UPDATE!

[captainclayman]

on air?

sweeeeeeet

[cursed1815]

@captainclayman yes at the time that was on vendetta 2 air cooler with a cold room, used window unit to lower temp. i think it was around 11-15 degrees c in room but held in warmer temps as well

[KapteinFruit]

Please help me! When I use the AMD PverDrive it doesn't save my over clock. How can I save it? It really annoys me.

[Maxguitarrista]

because when u get a nice OC in the overdrive u must put the same settings in the bios so u dont need to run amd overdrive all the time that you start windows

[KapteinFruit]

Oh, OK. So if it works fine in OverDrive it will work fine in the BIOS?

[Maxguitarrista]

yup, but be really careful, i recommend u to watch a video showing how to OC in the BIOS before touching the BIOS :D

[KapteinFruit]

I've done some OC'ing in the BIOS and I know the very basics. I don't think I would mess up and put the voltages way to high or something like that. But either way, I will fallow a tutorial when I'm doing it.

[Maxguitarrista]

good job dude :D

[KapteinFruit]

Thanks :P

[cursed1815]

@KapteinFruit in my experience yes it works fine in bios too

[Cairnsiee]

How the hell do i turn off the auto clocker it keeps changing my speeds every 2 seconds ! >:(

[btnh050]

do i check the voltage boost before start the auto clock? pls reply tnx in advance merry xmas

[cursed1815]

if you check the vboost for the auto clock it gives the program permission to over voltage your cpu,if you check it it will o.c it more but it is at your own risk, preferably i would check your maximum voltages and o.c it myself manually, but on a side note i over volt my more than auto clock does :)

[RShahProductions]

Thank you this should come in very handy I appreciate your effort put into making and sharing this video :)

[cursed1815]

thank you very much i hope it did help indeed.

[FubuMushu]

I have the exact same processor and software but when i click on the autoclock start button it crashes and blue screens! HELP!?

[cursed1815]

What mobo are you running? have you updated the bios on it? my ASUS M4A79T Deluxe mobo would blue screen and crash, the problem was with bios, a update was out a while after i bought it that fixed the problem,

[headbangerbuggy]

get a good cooler. Sounds like you're using the fan/hs that came with it.

[drunkdrive1218]

yo are u using air cool or liquid? cuz the vcore is at 1.9v ur cpu will blow lol

[tom1161]

have you even read the name of the video

[cursed1815]

rofl

[marcus2630]

i cant click start in auto overclock

[cursed1815]

your processor or mobo may not me unlocked.

[cursed1815]

I own 2 bussinesses and work 60-80 hours a week easy, i just dont have time to provide detailed support for this software, i appologize but i am not intamatly familiar with this softwares faults for different cpu's ect, my video was a general tutorial into the work or software driven O.C, however for this program to work your cpu needs to have an unlocked multiplier and your motherboard should support O.C as well.

[KingSamLopez]

i cant higher my Multplier my computer is stable its an AMD 710 Tricore but it says Processor AMD model unkown could that be the reason or not

[ThePt4n]

Excellent video. Info packed. Has helped tremedously. Thank you!!

[bolter146]

i got an amd turion x2 dual core mobile rm-70 2.00 Ghz processor and ATI radeon hd3200 i overclock my laptop by putting the multiplier to 10x but than my screen goes black and when i restart the computer no settings were on :S help please

[blackn12]

don't overclock a laptop retard...

[bolter146]

why does my computer freeze when i apply the settings?? ive got a laptop with amd turion x2 dual core mobile rm-70 2.00Ghz cpu and ati radeon hd3200 graphics card :S help please

[PBMS123]

Please tell me your not doing the majority of your OC'ing with this.

And please learn to OC without just a multiplier overclock. A good overclock has a balance between multiplier and Ref Clock.

A BIOS OC will give you a better, more stable overclock, rather than doing a driver based overclock with OD.

Also I am thinking of getting the OCZ vendetta 2 what do you rekon.

Also try Prime95 for stability and post results of temps etc.

[cursed1815]

No i dont use this program for my primary o.c this is a good tool for the novice user and i highly recommend it for that. as far as the vendetta 2 i have a short video out on it

you can get a 4.0ghz o.c with it in a room kept cool however keep a close eye on temps as it is very border line for that high of an o.c i am water cooled now at 4.2 ghz

[07NT]

I gave up on overdrive , i get better results OC through bios

[kaosJA]

when i use amd overdrive it freeze my computer what should i do i have Phenom II X4 955 a gigbyte motherbored ga-ma790x-ud4p 4 gs of ram gskill

[07NT]

I keep trying to run (novice)mode autoclock and it keeps kicking me :( it doesnt run the full autoclock anyone know why?

[cursed1815]

when you say kicks you? you mean you pc crashes? if so it has finished because it has indeed reached its max over clock that the software can reach on auto, to get more you will have to learn a bit to manually push the limits.

[cursed1815]

make sure your computer is in fact overclockable

unless it is a custom build chances are it is in fact not clockable

[cursed1815]

nice. good luck on your first build.

[mastersniper13]

this wont run on my system

amd athlon 64x2 3800+ @2ghz

i hope it works on my new/first build

[cursed1815]

hmm.... good question, i dont see why not because it gives you the ability to individually control the cores. but if your multiplier is locked i dont belive it would work for anything other than mabye allowing you to overclock the FSB Freak.

[fpvshitsonhsv]

G Day mate i got a 945 and this program too im just wondering.Can you use this program on a single core AMD 2.8
