[gullf1sk]

I waaaaaaaaaaaant one!

[GoThr3k]

awesome results
congrats
is that on air? and 100% stable?
i'll hope you will keep us updated

[M.Beier]

Kris, thats on AIR, right!?
Better not be the limit on your autocascade :(

EDIT:
Kris, can you please send me that background picture? - Its beautiful

[freecableguy]

I can say this right off the bat, shes about 8-10C cooler than the E6700 that I had at equivalent speeds/voltages.... ;)

[freecableguy]

Kris, thats on AIR, right!?

this is first boot :p:

i will be working on max OC now... :D

[freecableguy]

all those that want the wallpaper....

[[XC] moddolicous]

The real question: Is it rosetta stable?? That is crazy FCG. I never heard of SSE4 before. Is it incorporated in enything yet?

[M.Beier]

nevermind rosetta for now, we want 05 on SINGLE gfx + on CF, a comparation on that "sucker" would be awesome!

And thanks alot @ picture, its already background on my laptop... On the desktop, there can only be one.... (Aguilera) - or perhaps the person that's known for the advertise your title is refering to Hilton.. =)

[vintage_guitar]

Simply amazing, let's see the 400,000,000,000.64 3Dmarks.

[thunderstruck!]

Vcore still not correct?

Piece of advise mate, do not mess with a X.I.P, especially not when your a rookie on XS...

Sorry for the OT Kris, I just couldnt ignore that rude comment :mad:

[georgesod]

Default vcore?

[Absolute_0]

Hehe, as the pic was loading i caught the wallpaper and thought Whoa. Now using the wallpaper ;)

Not bad for a first boot, now it's just a matter of how much voltage the Badaxe can give it.

[StealthyFish]

lol, saw the wall paper and set it as mine too ;):banana: :banana: :woot:

[FUGGER]

Nice, you should be able to wipe most of the current 3D records again.

I am switching over to B0 now as well.

I also confirmed AW8D does not support Conroe even though tech support will say it does.

[Danjo]

core 2 extreme, nice nice, gratulations
time 2 do some WR's :banana:

That's if he sends the chip to you for some -100C action, which is what we all want to see.;)

[death metal]

Great job FCG!

[theteamaqua]

why not OC it more??

is it possible to get 4GHz on air?? btw

[Evilsizer]

i bet fcg has 4.5ghz on air with 1.45v maybe lower.. hehe i dont like waiting.. what cooler are you using FCG stock intel sink or BT/Ultra-120/Ninja?

[mdzcpa]

Yummy, Core 2 Extreme X6800 action! This is what I've been waiting for:D

[Johnny Sack]

Look what juggernaut just rolled in!:slobber:

but i will probably get the E6600 anyway, $1000 is too much for me

[wwwww]

Is the multi upward unlocked?

[s7e9h3n]

but different picture :confused: oh well lol

That's because WWM was using an older version of CPUZ ;)

yes, the multi is unlocked, up and down.

[s7e9h3n]

I'm not too sure about that....AFAIK these cpus are upwards locked....

err... I ment, chip.
:toast: let's see a 4 Ghz stable cpu on air. and then, bring it to the coldness :D

Conroe will be launched on July 23

[althes]

this is going to be so much fun

This is truth.

[JoeBar]

I want one... :yepp:

[freecableguy]

I hear talk of C1 already...

[CompGeek]

The only thing I want to know if we will have before launch is that DFI nForce 5 board. Conroe is mine! I MAY even go for the EE... see how much cash is burning a hole in my pocket. Im broke as it is :D But I have my current setup to sell.

DFI's performance board for the Intel platform won't be ready until August. I've been told that Oscar is first concentrating his efforts on the AM2 nf590 board and then moving on to Intel.....

[CompGeek]

AM2 isnt even worth concentrating on yet :(

Dang it, will there be any GOOD ocing 590 board available for Conroe on release?

[creidiki]

I want an ATI board tbh, asynch mem controller makes me tingly all over...

as in Conroe C1? Wouldn't it be C0? I mean they have A0, and B0, where'd the sudden additional 1 come from?

And are these like hush hush rumors that Intel is trying to cover up, or some person speculating?

[M.Beier]

Luke, join the dark side :p:

Hmm, I understand Stephen perfectly well, not everyone can get these chips as decent prices, and I would knock my toe with a sledgehammer before purchasin' a X6800 at 1300$, and seeing' it be released less then a week after at way lower price includin' 2-years warrenty..

Ha....XE is a LATE Q4 part...think, Christmas time. LOL

I dont think so... THey'll release X6800 along with E4xxx / E6xxx series... E8000 is a "maybee", while X6900 wille be released around christmas, and will be a floop due the quadcore sucker being just around the corner :)
Also, PENRYN, it'll def put one some heat..

So basicly, Intel wont sell any X6800's unless they'll release them to start with...

Futher, as you've already mentioned, the comming C1 might clock alot better, but C1 X6800's, have you seen one of those ? :)

Funny thing is, I can get them probably cheaper than any price you'd see anywhere (PLEASE DO NOT PM ME ASKING ME TO GET ONE FOR YOU :D ), but I'm holding out for a "review sample" = $0 :D

[maverik-sg1]

What we really need is a guy selling the boards as well as the chips - there are no conroe compatable boards in the UK as yet.

Also I see a lot of conroe chips being sold - how do the current conroe prices that we can see, compare to the real retail prices?

I heard that conroe will be only priced $20 - $40 higher than the 'equivalent' presler??

[maverik-sg1]

A0>B0 = ES
C1>D1 = Retail/oem

C1>D0>E0>N0 ?

I cant see conroe being any cheaper than P4.... retailers will mark up even if it is cheaper, cus they are SCUM!

also my friend seems to think his Asus is conroe compatable.... which he recently purchased.

ill ask him when hes back and make sure if hes right.

You haven't seen the price for these chips? they are pretty much exactly the same. The 1.86 Ghz chip starts @ 215 I think... And of course the XE is the normal $1300.

No, Intel says X6800 to launch on July 23, along with the rest of Conroe parts.

Can't imagine where FCG is hearing otherwise... same place he heard Conroe would have HT2 ? :p: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showpost.php?p=1464342&postcount=69


See here for X6800 launch info:

http://www.dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=2547

Also:

http://www.tgdaily.com/2006/06/01/intel_core_2_extreme_demonstrated/

Intel today confirmed that Core 2 Extreme will launch with 2.93 GHz/FSB1066 next month and will be available with 3.2 GHz by the end of the year. At a presentation today in Santa Clara, Calif., the firm also demonstrated an overclocked version 3.5 GHz that, according to Intel, offers "impressive performance."

[Richie P]

Get that XE on a phase, get it over 5GHZ and let's see some 9.xx superpi 1m action!!! :clap:

[xombie2000]

Can't imagine where FCG is hearing otherwise...

Perhaps he works for Intel?

[s7e9h3n]

He doesn't... but apparently he "knows" people who do. :rolleyes:
Don't mean to insinuate anything, and maybe it's just some kinda bug, but I was wondering why your cpuz shot recognizes (or at least displays) the "Processor Selection" field differently than all the other conroe shots from various members?

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v85/Poncho/Conroeupdated.jpg

All the other ones I've seen display identical to FCG's -> *CPU #1 (Core 1)*:

http://members.cox.net/kjboughton/core2_xe.PNG

Thanks.....

[CompGeek]

mine says (core 1)/(core 2)... its an opteron though.


EDIT: nvm, i thought you were referring to FCGs being strange.

[s7e9h3n]

mine says (core 1)/(core 2)... its an opteron though.
Yep, I think most every dual core will display as such (at least with all the ones I've used or seen)...just wondering what could possibly cause CPUZ to error in that respect.......

[CompGeek]

hmm, dunno, hes using the same version.

[Gautam]

Damn, very observant. :eek:

I think it's got something to do with the Windows installation, i.e. the HAL.

[s7e9h3n]

Damn, very observant. :eek:

I think it's got something to do with the Windows installation, i.e. the HAL.
Hmmm....now IIRC, the only other possible HAL that would still allow both cores to be active in windows would be MPS Multi-Proc. If that's the case, the question now becomes why windows would have defaulted to that HAL?

[Gautam]

I remember trying to force an ACPI Uniprocessor HAL to try to disable a core. It ended up resulting in Windows detecting two ACPI Uniprocessors. Never thought of taking a CPU-Z shot, but that might be along the lines of what's going on here.

It might also be something stupid, like him being the only one without SP2 (or Win2k3). :p: :shrug:

That it is very :slobber:, I have not been so excited about intel since
the 2.4c m0 days.
Which begs the question, I wonder if we will see any X6800 in other flavors
like the infamous m0's. :)

[kyleslater]

Just so you know the CPU-Z 1.34 supports all of Core 2 chips slated for June 23 release.. Or was it July 23? Ah whatever... It's really soon...

[s7e9h3n]

Hmm... not quite sure. Didn't notice that before. It lists the other as a "logical" unit. Could be my board, bios, OS, etc. I'm running a Rev 302 (re-worked) Intel 975, bios dated 4-27 (latest one) and Win XP Pro.
Sp1 or 2? And what's the first cpu listed as?

same here, 2.4c m0 was my last intel before amd took my business and its still going strong. this will make go back to the darkside. good luck with the chip fcg

[s7e9h3n]

SP2.... and under processor selection there is only:

CPU #1
CPU #1 (Logical Unit)

Kinda strange... though I have had this processor for over 2 months and the person that I got it from had it a month or 2 before I got it. That might be why.... We got these at a time when hardly anybody at Intel could get their hands on them.
Would it at all be possible to run a SuperPi @ 1m and 32m? I'm curious to see if there's a difference in performance with what seemingly is a much earlier ES than the ones we're seeing right now (although the stepping info isn't indicative of such). Thanks. :toast:

BTW, could you check your HAL for us? Right Click My computer -> Properties -> Hardware -> Device Manager -> it should be listed under "Computer".....

EDIT: Wait a sec! IIRC, you description of how cpuz is detecting the other core sounds almost like a hyperthreaded core.....Maybe it IS your HAL ;)

[s7e9h3n]

Cant run any benchmarks sorry... wouldn't be right given my place of employment. :D

The system is listed as an ACPI Multiprocessor PC so that all looks kosher. Hmmm....
I'm not asking you to overclock or anything. I'm just trying to get a gauge on performance @ stock speed ;) . It may tell us if one of your cores is/is not running properly or even at all :p:

[s7e9h3n]

Screenshot of my file server for reference...

Thnx....it's been a LONG time since I've played with a cpu with Hyperthreading, but wouldn't a single core cpu with hyperthreading appear as your 6800 is now?

[hicookie]

wierd, singlecore+ht? lol, run dual pi 32m, will prove that, i think there is a bug of cpuz.

well by looking at that SS i bet its oced alot from stock... just guess. if you can answer though. Does the xe do 1333 on default volts or does it need a bump?

That's exactly why I told him to run Spi for not only us, but also for him to see what's going on. He says he can't, so we'll have to respect that. Maybe there's some other sort of benchmark or something that he can run which wouldn't be a problem?


well by looking at that SS i bet its oced alot from stock... just guess. if you can answer though. Does the xe do 1333 on default volts or does it need a bump?
I think that's just Intel's Speedstep lowering the multi while Idle.....I'm pretty sure he's running @ default speeds at 1066.


Whats this ??
ROFLMAO!!!! ouch :p:

[s7e9h3n]

Yea, that's how Single core with HT would look. I'm betting it's an issue with my board or bios. It's been a while since I worked on desktop hardware but I seem to remember dual core ES chips showing up a bit funky in the bios. Often it would list them as 1 core but 2 threads IIRC.
But I'm wondering what exactly is the difference between YOUR ES6800 vs. the others we've seen here? The rev. and the stepping #'s are identical.....

[mike]

Understand that... but since the product hasn't launched yet, benchmarks (even at stock speeds) would be going a bit far. Have to restrain a bit. :D

NDA's are lifted - no?

[Alex08]

I downloaded Super Pi and was running it. It maxed out 1 thread, when I ran a second Super Pi at the same time it maked out the other thread for about 30 seconds then gave me a error and stopped the second one. Never used this program so I'm not too familiar with it. Any ideas?

i'm thinking your super pi has to be separated into two folders or two different .exe's of pi

Yep...to run dual spi's you have to setup in two separate folders first. Then open each instance and then go to windows task manager. This is where it'll get a bit wierd since I don't know how windows handles "hyperthreaded" cores. You'll have to manally set affinity for each core for each particular instance of spi (at least that's the case with dual cores). I'm not too sure how that will work with a single core + a hyperthreaded core.....

[s7e9h3n]

Got it... Thanks. They are both cranking away now. Is there anything that I should be looking for?
Cranking away...but you're not actually testing each core atm...you MUST set affinity ;)

[Alex08]

Cranking away...but you're not actually testing each core atm...you MUST set affinity ;)

wow that totally skipped my mind, luckily prime95 allows to set affinity through the program.

I just assumed with SUPErPI, it was working correctly since task manager reported 100% load.

[s7e9h3n]

The times are not more than 2 seconds apart from each other on the 2 tests.
That doesn't really tell us anything. We need to find someone who currently has another 6800 so you can compare your times to theirs....I know that FCG doesn't have his 6800 anymore (he sold it already) so we need to find someone else......hmmmmm....

HICOOKIE? :p: if you could - please run a dual spi32m for us (and don't tweak out your settings as I'm assuming FLG_Poncho ran @ default timings ;) )

[XS Janus]

Ok that all is just fine and dandy, but "FLG_Poncho " what we all would like to know is just how much more satisfying is Pr0n on Core 2 XE :D:D
