I built my system in September 2011 with the 1100t - stock 3.3GHz - Turbo 3.6GHz which I haven't tried overclocking. It's running almost any game well-enough for me since I have it paired with a GTX 980 that replaced a 560 a couple years ago. The only games I can't run on it are those handful that require SSE 4.1 like Dead Rising 4 and Little Nightmares but games like Resident Evil 7 got patched and I think my average framerate in the demo was over 100fps at 1080p on high.

I decided to build my daughter a gaming rig now that she turned 8 and is getting into more gaming than just roblox and I built it with this CPU on an ASUS M5A87 mobo as the foundation. Lets just say that while paired along with a 290x and 16gb 1866 G.skill ram this PC still easily pushes 90% of todays best games at 1080P and high settings no problem at all. She will be happy for a couple years at least and it cost me about 160$ total to build and the games she wants are dirt cheap on Steam which is very nice as well. I feel bad for my friends who are stuck buying their kids new PS4 and Xbox games at 40+ on avg every month or so SMH

AM3+ processors will only fit into an AM3+ socket, however, AM3 and AM2+ processors fit into AM3+ slots. Some boards will take AM3+ if they were designed to, your manufacturer may have a BIOS update in order to support the FX processors and future AM3+ processors.

@ThyCrusader Blue screen usually means you need more voltage. Increase voltage in small increments until stable, and make sure you check your temperatures arent too high.

@IvorStiffan Chances are for 4.2 you will need more than the stock 1.475. However there is no harm in trying it at that voltage as you can always increase it if it turns out to be unstable. Just obviously watch temperature, and don't go over 1.6 V, but there should be no reason you would need to if you have a decent chip.

tumbs up if using a Phenom II X6 in 2022 and still rocks on without new gen CPUs

@daxcastro The case depends on where its going (if under/inside a desk, will need dimensions) and what you plan to put into it (plus ease of use and cable management if you're into that). Side fan/no side fan. number of devices for future install, hot swap bays, USB 3.0 ports, eSATA, # of drive bays, do you want fan controllers, LED fan options, water cooling/radiator options, and don't forget a PSU that can accommodate a fully loaded case once everything you want in the future is in there.

Love it when I'm looking for something, and I find a video that you've made on the subject.

Switching between a phenom 910 to 965, but watts are different 65 verse 125 do I need to be concerned about this aside from extra heat generation?

The fascinating part is that I’m still using the same parts has Linus did 11 years ago and its only dying in this year

This is great...my 7 year old processor is still kicking in relavancy thank you BABY LINUS!!!

@daxcastro Was gonna suggest some low profile heatsinks, but there wasn't enough difference in temps between them and your stock fan (plus your temps are higher because of case configuration/size). So I figured since space is a premium that air cooling is out since the bigger it is, the more heat it can dissipate. So I looked at water cooling as an option. But both Corsair's H50/60/70 and Antec's Kuhler H20-620/920 lines don't have clearance in your case on top or bottom of the radiator. *sigh*

@greenlime14 yes you can, the max temp recommended not to exeed is 56-57 celsius

Is overclocking necessary with a gtx660? Or should i overclock and buy a new Gpu?

Awesome! I'm building a PC this summer and I was looking at that series of AMD CPU's. Thanks.

Cool stuff. I just now assembled a kind of frankenstein semi-retro gaming rig with an Phenom II X4 955 black edition. I left everything to auto, and just went with the multiplier all the way to 4GHz. I do, however have a modern PSU with 550W to spare :) I'm also waiting for a 1070ti to arrive yeaaaaa

You didn't mention disabling the CPU Spread Spectrum which helps quite a bit with overclocking! This is a naughty tutorial ;)

Hi Linus Thanks for the quick response. The three fans are located like this 1) on top of the processor in a tower chassis 2) top of the chassis in line with the processor at a dist of 5 inches 3) back of the chassis horizontal to the processor at a distance of 3 in. Based on this info, is it possible to overclock 1055 to 4 GHz. Additional info, I use only Ubuntu.

@Miastuk go to msconfig startup and turn of some of the software and reboot or install dual core senter and turn down the fan

The best processors to use for overclocking are either new top of the line ones, or slightly older ones that were top of the line at the time. This is an excellent processor. I super cool mine, and get it running stable at about 5.2 GHz. Max temperature I hit is about 20-26C. For normal liquid cooling, you can probably get around 4-4.6 GHz out of this processor, for a fraction of the price of anything that could do that without overclocking. Max temp is going to be about 50C for you.

Tried your settings and the computer gives me a no power screen. Used the default over clock setting for 270, ht link 8 cpu mult 14 pcie 100 voltage cpu volt 1.55 nb volt 1.15 dram voltage 1.645 ht volt 1.2 mgpu voltage 1.146 and have an overclock of 3781 mhz, but the cpu is running 52/53 C, mb temp 29C, fan is running 1460. Any comments?

@daxcastro You left out the only crucial piece of info other than CPU. THE ACTUAL CASE. Measure the width of the case and subtract 1 inch (+ whatever depth your side fan is if you have one) and that's the max height of the CPU cooler you can install. Anything with at least 6 heat pipes and a 120mm fan will do you. Things to think about are direction of airflow, RAM clearance, noise level of fan(s). With more details I'd be happy to give you 2 options for your setup. Also, remove double post. :)

@artooooooooooooo Are you on stock cooling? That would make a difference, more heat means you need more voltage/clock. It could just be that your chip can't run stable over 3.8, or that it needs a voltage bump to do so.

I'm still using 1090t @3.6ghz with RX570. I can play World of tanks with ultra settings @60fps stable. F1 2020 high-ultra over 50 FPS. For me, Phenom is a legend!

I still use a 1055T today for my main rig, standard a 2.8 Ghz CPU, I overclocked to 3.5 GHz(x14 multiplier) with 3.7 Ghz (x15 multiplier) boost without any special stuff, only a standard Coolermaster watercooling system.

will i be able to achieve same overclock with amd phenom 2 x6 1100t, asus crosshair 4 formula ,tx 750 watt psu if i use corsair h70/h75 cooler

@chickenpoper I highly doubt that low of a temp unless you are using watercooling. These CPUs have incorrect sensors. The correct temp is TMPINI or something on a program called HWMonitor. The true temp is about 10c* higher than what it says on the CPU Core temp. TMPINI is the only sensor to be trusted. Mine is the same.

It's basically guess work as you over clock you try and keep the voltage at stock until you hit problems with stability when that happens you add extra voltage just remember voltage= more heat and it can quite possibly burn your cpu

i still use a phenom II X4 for gaming in 2024. works like a dream

Can you recommend a CPU cooler by today's standards that fits in an ATX case. I'm looking at Corsair waterblock cooler. 1100T. Does this kill CPU over time or not if temps are monitored and kept cool?

I still running an AMD Phenom II X6 1090T in 2020

I have a phenom ii x4 955 i tried to over clock in the bios but the voltage doesn't stay when I start up Windows, I enter the overclock and the voltage and then save and quit the overclock stays but the voltage doesn't can any help?

@ZeroGamer2Duo It depends, if your mobo supports BD (990fx or 890x with bios upgrade) you should buy the 955 and save for the next build. However, if your motherboard is a just am3 (not am3+) you should buy the 1055t, because is the best upgrade for your mobo.

im also using 16gb 1600mhz ram but my bios is not the same as yours ?

My Phenom 1100T is running at 3,3GHz (16,5x200), but in games it often gets quite hot, up to 65°C and PC turns off because it's the temperature cap set in BIOS. So the question is, what's the actual critical temperature for this processor? Can I set the cap higher? Or is there any other solution? What are the optimal overclocking settings if I got Asus M4A79XTD Evo mother and 2x8Gb DDR3 1333?

@Slowshyy make sure your north bridge and south bridges are not above stock..not even 5 mhz above it. When you adjust fsb it may be auto raising both of those. You might need adjust the cpu ratio down from ( example from 18x to 16.5) or something like that. i doubt you got a bad cpu. and your motherboard's chipset is slightly more advanced than mine. msi 785gm-e51 here. currently running my phenom II 6 core3.7ghz manual core control all 6 cores running and ready. cpu volts 1.297

Wow I don't know how I got here but I remember back when this video was released it helped me a lot with my 1090T BE. I even bought the board you're using there. Used it until I killed it while cleaning my case.

@shinymcshineshine The TV is probably connected via HDMI, while either his graphics card or TV automatically scales the image to the size of the TV. However, the graphics card must be support PC resolutions AND standard 720/1080p resolutions.

My (asus) mobo is auto-changing the voltage on stock settings as well). Make sure to check if your heat is alright, as long as it is it should be ok.

@CaInTerTainmenT It could be a motherboard issue, its fine. Try upping the voltage a little. If its blue screening it maybe getting too warm. Use speedfan to check the temps or bios. BSOD is fine... when its really badly overclocked often it wont boot up at all. If your multiplier is increasing the FSB to the ram it will cause memory errors resulting in BSOD. Make sure your multiplier doesnt cause the RAM to go over its operating frequency.

Just came across this video, 6 years later, lol. Hopefully someone can provide some insight. I have an AMD phenom II 1100t, with 8gb ram, and a new radeon 470. The rig still handles every game I throw at it on max, but with some games like World of Warcraft, my low end fps will dip to low 30s in excessively busy areas. I believe this is because my cpu is at the stock 3.3ghz and even turbo was turned off. I plan on overclocking it to 4ghz today, and I have a good heatsink to keep it cool. I understand changin the multilplier and voltage, but why is the voltage on the dram here set to 1.65? Isn't that a little high? Should I adjust mine if its at 1.6 or leave it? Also, should I expect any increase if in games (such as WoW) if I Oc to 4.0ghz, or just leave the turbo setting on? Thanks

1.65v for DDR3 is stock voltage

Put the Bclk at 250mhz and turn multipliers down until you have the speed you want. Phenom cpu's love faster bus clock

I need help because i have an asus p7p55d motherboard but i cant get access to the cpu clock ratio it wont let me change it from auto? Any suggestions?

Still gaming on my 1100T and ddr2 lmao.. not any issues.. so far. What's the best ddr3 motherboard that can utilize the 1100T any opinions out there?

370 gigabyte.. I just upgraded from that one to ryzen am4 system.. but my old 1090T would get over 100 FPS in most games even with a stock cooler and running my 760 gtx.. im gonna continue to use it as a spare but the ryzen system I build is about 30% faster minimum

frame rates went up to about 115-150(mad max) on high settings (shadows on low) with the same video card

Guys i have overcloced my x4 955 black edition on x19,5 mulltiplier ( 3.9ghz), then ran stability test, on 100% load my cpu temp reaches 65-68c, is the temperetaure good/bad? Should i leave it like that or lower it down?

I guess its time to try this on my ancient prebuilt and see if it goes boom!

What cooler should I use to O/C my Pheanom II? It's the same one they used in the video (1055T) I'm assuming i shouldn't go near overclocking with the stock cooler.

images.bit-tech.net/content_images/2009/02/ga-1366-cpu-cooler-group-test/9.jpg Thats the cooler im using. Keeps my 1055t OC to 3.4ghz always under 30C.

still using the phenom II in 2018.. starting to slow a little and time to OC lol. i cant believe how long linus has been making videos for!

How exactly does one know that to set the NB and HT Link Frequency at? In this video they are still at auto, in others they put them manually Perhaps this depends on the motherboard, but must one put a limit on the voltages? Or will they always be at the stock/default for as long as the Auto setting is enabled?

Linus, I'm a fan and you're the same through time! hahah I'm still using this Phenom with a Liquid Cooler from Corsair (H50) I Took a 1100T to 4GhZ with the stock cooler on Windows 10 so... still a machine for a WorkStation (I play on Xbox though) I Love my AMD Phenom!

@@Naebun I'm actually rocking the 1100T Black Edition, If I upgrade I would do it straight for a Ryzen 7. But I don't think I'll need to do that soon, Still rocking this little beastie

still running an AMD phenom II x6 1050T in 2020

M4A89GTD PRO USB3. She served me well on my X4 965 BE before I upgraded to the ROG Crosshair IV. Was able to run 4.0ghz on the 965 no problem. Even today the 965 BE is still a decent chip.

Using it today in 2022 and was thinking about overclocking but my main and only concern is my psu which is the fsp blue storm II 500w it's not bad at all but it only features one 4 pin for the cpu and online websites claims that the 4 pin cpu connector can only provide up to 155w which is not enough to power the cpu at oc and I don't want to try and deliver more than 150w from the 4 pin cpu power cable and can't get a psu upgrade right now because today i bought a gtx 970 and I'm left with an empty pocket 😂 any advice will be appreciated

@LuisAlejandroFlores1 Pretty sure it would,AM3+ mobos are backwards compatible with AM3 Cpus.

Dude I have had my Gigabyte motherboard for over 16 years and just took out the older 4 core AMD chip and added the 1090T 6 Core to it and its performing like my sons FX8370 and plays GTA5 at like 48 Frame Per second in Sept 2020 think about that folks.

i have MSI 890GXM-G65, amd phenom ii 1055t 2,80ghz, 12gb ram, gtx 1050ti, i dont know what cooling i have, can i do OC to 3ghz or 3,4ghz ?

What kind of cooler did you have? I'm Dutch, I don't know what you're saying there, sorry. I've got a 1100T but I've got heating issues while gaming. And my processor is not shutting down btw, while my temp is around 70/ 75 degrees C. On multiple programs/ apps for temp measuring... Upgrading my cooling will solve the problem right?

RealityCheckY2K yes possibly....... Anything below 65 is always good . ......Don't let it reach 70 .....If air cooler doesn't work try liquid coolers

With my phenom 2 1100t x6 i am only able to overclock it to 3.7Ghz and will not start over that clockspeed. Help?
