I just got my Thoroughbred in from tefleming's desperation sale :).

So far I've got it at 1900 Mhz (started at 1466), but I'm not sure if I'm giving it too much juice. I'd like to figure that out before I go much farther. I have it at 1.75 volts right now.

If anybody else is OC'ing a Thoroughbred-A, how much Vcore are you giving it to reach your speed?

Thanks :thumbsup:

Darn, I think mine's a B, but I had a 1800+ A for a while. It did about 2000 MHz but probably took a little higher voltage than 1.75.

TBredA's arent very good at OCing. You might not be able to go much farther than that.

Thoros are known for generating heat and are not very good overclockers. They are decent procs in their own right though. Get a good HSF and don't plan on getting too much extra out of it.

The As are OCers, The Bs are. I have 2 1800+ TBredBs that do 2.5+. It depends on what CPU you have that determines if it will be a good OCer or not.

I Think the Bs are good at ocing,the Retail is so good
