MSI 790GX-G65 and Sempron 140 @ 4.59GHz Super Pi 1.5 1m run - Dry Ice - Extreme Overclocking

[hamzachilling]

i see amd phenom ii (x4 975) as the far best processor for £150 from amazon

or

amd phenom ii x4 965 black edition for price

[devilzzzzzzzzzz]

I got mine unlocked by using the UCC in the bios and upping the voltage to 1.40v or 1.45v and it runs fine also overclocked to 3.4ghz from 2.7 the cpu is pretty handy :O

P.s It runs pretty stable

[nelizmastr]

so.. it can max crysis now, with a good enough gpu?

[GamerAndReviewer]

@nelizmastr I'm not sure... I believe that if you put a card until 6850 will be fine. From 6870 and over, maybe it'll bottleneck them...

@GamerAndReviewer hey dude can u tell . is this mobo msi 740gm-p25 able to unclock other 2 cores of amd phenom ii x2 560 be cpu and make it into a full fledged quad core. i the board is cheap . its priced at 52$ i think. i has ddr3 ram support. i wanna ask do u think msi boards have quality to last long and they really unlock cores? though msi says that this particular mobo has core unlocking technology. plz help

[GamerAndReviewer]

@discobubbles I don't know... But most people that Unlocked the 2 moe cores had a 770 or 790 chip model, not 740. :-) And you must be lucky to unlock them.

[Nilsfried]

isn't the physical limit of a silicium CPU at ~3.6GHz?

[yellowman88]

so your using dry ice to cool that?

[stupidmonkey121]

how can i unlock this to 2 cores i dont think i have acc

[devilzzzzzzzzzz]

@stupidmonkey121 If you do not have Acc or Ucc you cannot sorry :/

[stupidmonkey121]

@devilzzzzzzzzzz its ok i got a athlon ii x3 now so :D

[devilzzzzzzzzzz]

@stupidmonkey121 Nice one! :P Im getting my Athlon II x3 next week xD

[midnit19]

have u unlocked it aswell?

[LauxHawk]

He's probably using ACC, imamage.

[imamage]

If your mainboard got "ACC" function ( SB710/SB750)

You may try Enable "Advance Clock Calibration" (ACC) function in BIOS Setup

to "Unlock" the 2nd Core

[djtheextremegamerpro]

How do i even unlock the 2nd core on the Sempron 140 CPU?

[kgonepostl]

things freakin 2.7 stock, i got 4.7 as well and 5.2 stable at 32c with a 30 dollar cooler.

the-fucking-cpu-costs-37-dolla­rs-at-newegg-retail!!!

[golem72002]

@kgonepostl can I get a cpu-z of that ?

[BlakeKawalec]

@kgonepostl you got 5.2GHZ stable... my should be arriving today.... mm.... what case, and what CPU cooler ?

[TheUnknownHarbingers]

@kgonepostl What voltage did you take it to? I only got the stock heatsink. And I've gotten to about 3.8 @ 1.376.. which my board says is the safe limits. But I've seen some people taking it up to 1.5..

[matthewlee913]

TGE, isn't it nice to finally overclock an AMD chip?! Gotta love how they've finally broken ground. Now go get a TWKR chip and hit 6.0!!!! FTW!

[snukkka]

awesome.you dont see any videos on this cpu.great overclock!
