Cpu-z validation. http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=1996752

 

[Henry]

Hey Tink, do you have any idea why your validation shows 'Rejected by CPU-Z 1.58' at the top? I just downloaded CPU-Z 1.58 to check and it doesn't give me that rejected notice at the top like on yours.

 

[Tink]

Henry,not sure but I not mind to much I home to rejection.Ha Ha

I am going to try some more here soon and will post some results.

 

[Henry]

Maybe a bug that has something to do with the latest Z68 MB.

When you get done playing post your final validation and I'll enter it in the list.

 

[Tink]

I do one then I reboot and do another just to confirm.

[Henry]

Entered.

Please edit you profile signature information as to full correct name of MB, it is not a Z68A-GD (G3) MB, it should read 'Z68A-GD80 (G3)'.

Another thing, what CPU cooler do you have on it?

 

[Tink]

Ok, Fixed.

[Henry]

Thanks, I like to add to lists what cooler, whether air or water/liquid.

 

[HU16E]

Here's an entry using the Z68A-GD80(B3) using a stock Intel cooler. Definately not recommended for the faint of heart! Seeing 97C in the UEFI/BIOS is rather spooky!

[removed on user?s request]

 

[Henry]

I knew you could do it Ron. Been a while since I had one of my CPU's that hot.

Those little Intel stock coolers just won't do it for OC work. Even the much taller Q6600 cooler won't do a real good job at the higher speeds.

I'm fixing to hit the sack soon so will enter that one in the list tomorrow. I was just taking a last quick look through the forum before calling it a night.

Finally 3.9Ghz!!! 

http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=2009908

Took forever, but loosening my timings were what got me here. Think this one can get 4.0 with a little more tweaking!!

MSI 760GM-P35
Athlon II x2 250
4gig
GTX 550Ti
600 watt Thermaltake
Kuhler 620 liquid cooled
3 120mm
1x2 96mm
500gb HD
250gb HD

 

[Henry]

I think I'm up to date in the lists now.

 

[Bernhard]

Henry, its time at last to add me to the list 
Until the multiplier restriction is resolved this will have to suffice.

[Henry]

Updated. Time for me to get mine to 5200-5300 so I can stay in the list a bit longer. :grin:

You better do that before MSI provides a BIOS that takes out the stupid multiplier restriction  as I think there may be 2 or 300 left in this CPU. 
btw Henry its a G3 board, not the B3.

 

[Henry]

"...G3 board, not the B3."

Edited.

Well Ron had it to 5310 before I bought it from him on the (A3) MB he had so I should be able to get it somewhere near that. I stopped where I did just to get it in the list pretty quick. :lol_anim:

 

[Bernhard]

OK Henry, thats as much as this CPU will give me with the current BIOS. HU16E will not be beaten at this stage.

[HU16E]

Most of the hard work with the Gen1's is fast vanishing. None the less, congrats on the tie Bernhard!

 

[Bernhard]

I remember how I struggled to get my 870 past 4,0GHz and how easy it is to get these ones to 5.  Sorry that it's become so easy.
