how the hell is this cpu running so cool? my ambient is around 24C....anyways I'll take it!

quick run at overclocking:

http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc.php?id=220873

but still not stable yet...was running this at 1.5V

[scwam]

Because coretemp sucks. do the burn for 15min at the highest vcore and stable oc and let us know what coretemp says.

[Ad1tya]

@ Grinch.. Its quite an "OK" Temp..

TJunction is reading 85C in CoreTemp.
TJunction for Quad's is 100. So add 15C to those temps. .

but this is'nt a quad...:shrug:

[scwam]

The tests I'd did over several months with coretemp on an naked opty 170 (using a micro ntc thermistor against the die as a basline) reported this:

Actual of less than 40c was reported under ~6c.
The misreporting increased 8 to 9c under when actually at 20 to 28c.
when actual was 41c or higher (via external probe) coretemp then became within 1.5c.
I'm sure it varies with the chip.

[road-runner]

Same batch I have...

Same batch I have...

:woot:


we might have some PM's coming back and fourth with various bios settings..:up:
