Problem with CPU-Z. Help Please.
Hey guys
I'm overclocking my dual core E8400 (3.00Ghz stock). I want to validate my overclock with CPU-Z but when i try to do so CPU-Z just makes my computer crash..

When I try to validate my E8400 with CPU-Z at 4.95Ghz or a little higher CPU-Z crashes right after when I click the "save manual validation file" button :( When I try the normal "submit" button the same thing happens. I have also tried running CPU-Z in 'extreme OC mode" but then it still crashes... ARGHHH... :steamfacepalm:

Could it be that my system is that unstable at such a high CPU frequency that merely clicking the submit validation makes my pc crash?

Highest CPU-Z validation so far: http://valid.x86.fr/s3w29l

Any help with this is much appreciated.

Download the latest version of CPU-Z and try that; then try the Bench tab and run that.
If it's crashing, chances are your OC is not stable.

When I click check for updates it tells me I already have the latest version of CPU-Z which is 1.73.

I'm not looking for a stable OC at that frequency I would just like to get my OC validated at 5Ghz, that is my goal. I would only like to get it stable at 4.4Ghz which should be possible given that I got a very good air cooler (Scythe Mugen Max + second fan).

Ok 1.73 is latest; click the BENCH tab at Top
First do Bench CPU; when done (if doesn't crash) do the Stress CPU.

Always run lengthy stress tests whenever u OC something, to help ensure it can remain stable and cool at full loads.

4.95 Ghz for E8400 is kinda insane and it's a miracle your PC boots up at all. I would drop this to at least 4.4 Ghz if you dont want to fry your CPU, especially with air cooler, possibly even to 4.2 Ghz to get long-term stability.

4.5ghz would require liquid cooling
5ghz would require ln2

is ln2 = liquid nitrogen?

Impressive, you're nearly there!

You probably just need a bit more CPU and Northbridge voltage to get an extra 10MHz out of the FSB.

Maybe shut down the secondary core, remove the second RAM stick to ease the load on the northbridge, slacken off the timings

If you don't have access to liquid nitrogen you can try cooling using compressed CO2, cycle shops sell canisters for inflating tyres. Empty one on the base of the CPU cooler before hitting the Validation Link to keep it cool. Wear gloves for this or you'll get frozen fingers.

Best of luck

Just wait a few more months for cold weather and pump cold air in from outside into the room then you should get your 5ghz. Since it's just a status 5ghz you're after there's no point in spending $$$ on coolers just let mother nature help.

+1 to upcoast. Possibly move to the artic circle? Northern Scandinavia? I'm sure you'll manage 5ghz there :D.

4.9..OK sure.....let me guess, you dont change the voltage either... keep it at 3.4 you can thank me later

Huh? Ofc i changed the voltage to manual, to 1.8V to reach 4.91Ghz. I already got it stable at 4.0Ghz for 24 hours of Prime95 blend so no need to put it as low as 3.4Ghz. ;)

Prime95 isn't even intensive stress test anymore.
Try Aida64 or IntelBurnTest

My CPU disagrees with you because it is sweating at 100% full load.

It will push that 100% load; but still, some are more intensive than others.
I always have all 3 on-hand and test with all 3 of those.

Overall, watch your Voltages and CPU / GPU Temps too.
See if anything it peaking too high; like your VCore jumping up because of loads; VRM getting too hot, or your 12-Volt lines dropping after heavier loads.

Alright will do, now going to try to push my E6750 a little over 3.80Ghz with the setFSB tool. Hope it won't crash. I opened the backdoor to the garden so fresh cool air is rolling in as we speak :P
