What kind of overclock speeds are you guys getting from FX-4100?

Forum Overclocking : AMD What kind of overclock speeds are you guys getting from FX-4100?

I am getting just over 4.7ghz on my FX-4100 stable. Just wondering what other results people are getting.

what is your definition of stable and what cooling are you using and what voltage are you running?

I just did:
64-bit Prime for 1 hour and 11 minutes at 4.3 ghz after 47 minutes of Battlefield 3..
So i just volted up one step and maybe it will be stable at 4.3 ghz. im at 1.44 volts now running prime 95 hopefully no errors for next 12 hours...lol

4.4 ghz gave me a blue screen of death so i never tried to overvolt more for than 4.4 ghz speed.

I have a cosair h80... its not running hot i just get some errors....

i was perfectly fine at 4.0 Ghz with volts set to "auto" in crosshair v forumal mobo.
Ram is 2133 mhz stock speeds and timings for mushkin.

Edit: I might not be getting the greatest overclock cause im overclocking the ram speed... stock stable is 1866 mhz.

My definition of stable is being able to play Ultra setting games for hours on end with no failure. This machine is my gamer/"HTPC".

Here are my settings:
CPU clock ratio: X22.5
CPU NB Ratio: X10
TURN OFF TURBO
CPU FSB: 210
HT link freq: X10
Memory clock: X8
Manually set your ram timings and voltage!
CPU Voltage: 1.4875V
These setting get me to 4.725mhz CPU, 2100mhz NB, 2100mhz HT link, 1680mhz RAM.

Don't bother overclocking your RAM. I found while overclocking my system, when I started pushing the RAM it created instability. You don't get much gain from it anyways. I have some vengeance 1600MHZ overclocked to 1680, so barely any overclock. Hopefully my information helps you get that 1.1ghz overclock that I did!
