E7500 can be overclocked?? Never heard of it....!! Well.......wait for other members to reply.

yes it can be overclocked...i managed to do it after some time and study....managed to overclock it from 2.9Ghz to 3.3GHz stable....have a look....when i set the multiplier to 11x it becomes unstable...i didnt increase the vcore but just increased fsb to 333 and reduced multiplier from 11x to 10x...have a look

There is an OC thread here, I have put a detailed guide how to OC LGA775. Yes your chip will OC easy. Read that guide. Be careful.

thnx a lot...that guide helped me a bit....but i cant seem to go above this status...i have to clear cmos everytime i set fsb or cpu multiplier above this...

How you cooling that chip....? Have you turned off all the auto management features, C1E, EIST, Speedstep..! How you got to that vCore.

stock cooling but at the above setup it reaches only 35 degrees...my room is 24hrs air conditioned with the ac blowing the air directly at the cpu at 16 degrees...no option of speedstep in the BIOS but disabled everything else...
vcore option is available in the MIT in the BIOS...

You would need to pour more vCore to the core. Be really careful. Follow the guide I made. Increase in increments of 0.1v, and run stability tests, and monitor the temperatures, do not just walk away.

should i increase the fsb or the multiplier with the vcore??

vCore, is the voltage which goes into the CPU. When you make it run at higher clocks, it needs more power. But you have to be extremely careful with this parameter, it can cause the chip to burn. Keep the Mx at the highest possible, for the E7500, and toggle the FSB. When you reach instability, increase the vCore a bit. But you should hit a wall, quite soon, since it is stock cooled.

How are you checking for stability..?

im using orthos and 3dmark for stressing the processor and checking it for stability...ne other tests u suggest as i am new to overclocking?

the best i could achieve at default vcore is

i increased the vcore to 1.4v but still it is not stable...is it a good OC or can better can be acheived with stock cooling?

I think that is about it for you. With stock, 1.4v is quite a lot. Try not to push it more. Could you post a RealTEMP run here, with 2x Prime95 threads. Thanks.

the vcore is not at 1.4 now...it is at stock 1.28v...i could not achieve stability at higher vcores...

this is the temp stats with prime95 running in background...

You going directly to 1.4. To it in small increments (0.02v) from 1.28v onwards. SpeedFan is not reliable for temperatures. Use RealTEMP. It has a good benchmark utility.

no i incremented it in increments of 0.25v...still no luck....ill post realTEMP outputs...
