C2D Max Frequency WR

[elmor]

BOTH my 2900XT went to heaven, so I figured I had to do something with the remaining LN2. So how about putting the X6800 back where it belongs? This old beast has finally awaken, it's a week 24!

Edit:

Some more good stuff and some pics.

SPi 1M, don't mind the time please...

And a QX6700 L632Axxx @ 1.9v idle, 1.86v under load. The cpu is Chefnr1's which he kindly lend me for testing.

awesome clocks mate :toast: although 1 core is disabled
did you run any benchmarks ???

[BenchZowner]

OMFG!
Voltage & temp ?
Max 1M benchable ?

Good job & very nice chip ;)

Of course, most max freq WRs are.

How about -150 and 2.28 vcore? :rofl: I'll see if I can get 1M-screen soon.

[SoF]

wow, what a pitty you haven't tried a Pi1m - could have blown away everything :D

But still an amazing clock and it looks like 6 ghz is not impossible with a so called "golden chip" :eek:

really >2Vcore???

[Morais]

Wow! Congratulations in the WR

[massman]

This is sick :o

Awesome work, Elmor :D

[Duniek]

wow
only 5,5mhz more and you break 100% oc on X6800 :D

[BenchZowner]

wow
only 5,5mhz more and you break 100% oc on X6800 :D

Not really :D
11x266 = 2926
2926 * 2 = 5852MHz

[Gautam]

Wowowow elmor that is absolutely nuts! X6800 back on da top. :D

Thank goodness school is starting soon so I have a good excuse for dropping out of the 3D race...I would hate having to fight against THAT, lol.

[jugeen]

Congratulations! :up:

Yep, I'd hate it too. If I only had this chip when C2D was released, now 45nm is closing in :mad:

[boblemagnifique]

Not really :D
11x266 = 2926
2926 * 2 = 5852MHz

266.66 x 11 = 2933.2mhz (True Fréquency origin on X6800)
2933.26 x 2 = 5866.52mhz (100% X6800 :) )

Not important , 5854mhz is very very impressive !!!

Great Work Elmor :)

[Pt1t]

Nice Job :D

[Oliver]

Looking very good, congratz with the WR.

Keep pushing it.

[Viss]

Nice Elmor :up: Was already waiting for cpuz or 1M after reading this (http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showpost.php?p=2370354&postcount=69) :D

[1Day]

Great overclock - real sad to hear about the HD2900XT um care to expand as to what happened with those two puppies?

[Monstru]

This is so out of this world!!!! OMFG!!! Congrats man, it looks like ye ol' X6800 still got some amazing powers left in it.

[BeardyMan]

Of course, most max freq WRs are.



How about -150 and 2.28 vcore? :rofl: I'll see if I can get 1M-screen soon.

2.28V ?:D
Hey wicked score man congrats ! ;)

[CCUABIDExORxDIE]

insane vcore! awesome work!

[mad_skills]

what's the temp of that C2X on those 5.85GHz ?

[blossa]

I see that it turned out 'ok'. ;) Great clock!

[ownage]

L624a is probably the best stepping for x6800. There are many great 5ghz results with this stepping, while week 24 was one of the first retail weeks lol.

[elmor]

I updated the first post with some more goodies.

The 2900XTs died probably because the power regulation area was not cooled enough. About L624 the reason why they have not gotten these results before is mainly because noone has dared to try this kind of voltage (2v+) ;)

[blossa]

Nice update!!! :D

[chefnr1]

Very nice clock, and what a vcore hehe, and mine seems to be nice too :)

[Leora]

Very nice overclocks there, especially on your X6800...keep it up! :up:

[crotale]

Crazy Jon, just crazy! :D

[Zannema]

Impressive X6800 frequency, that it's insane clock....congratulation:up:

[qballe]

compliments ... one of best x6800 ;)

[elmor]

Thanks all :)

Here is screen for the QX6700 with one core.

http://elmor.se/img/cpu-5301.jpg

Validation got corrupted. Maybe I'll go for Stoolmans 5350 on qx6700 if I feel I have the time.

[1badhabit]

Well done :clap: Well done.

[Achill3uS]

good job elmor :toast: congrats on the WR, both are awesome chip :up:
(I've got today my L632A QX67, cant wait to try it on ln2 :D)

[tiborrr]

Congratulations on the C2D MHz record! You've showed us once again that the trusty old ASUS P5W series boards are still unmatched when it comes to pure performance & stability at extreme clocks.

:clap:

[DEVIL K-ce]

Huh Elmor :D

Strong vcore and stron tester :up: Congrats for WR.


Martin

[PanteraGSTK]

Wow...Nice...

[`danny]

Very nice, so close to 6ghz :)

[PcCI2iminal]

That's pretty incredible.


congrats :D

Congratulations on the C2D MHz record! You've showed us once again that the trusty old ASUS P5W series boards are still unmatched when it comes to pure performance & stability at extreme clocks.

:clap:

These boards along with the AW9D-Max are very solid. Strangely enough it seems that these boards have better power regulation than the newer highend-boards that crap out when they get too cold. So it is really a blast benching on these 975x-boards compared to the hell of Nvidia 680i-chipset.

[Sn0wm@n]

6ghz is close indeed ...
@elmor: will you wait for 45nm extreme to push it to 6ghz?

[Supertim0r]

a good pair or 2900 and you're #1 2k5 and 2k6 :D

congrats again :)

[Stapler]

It's a real bummer you killed the cards Elmor. You gotta get together with Kinc and bench that chip. 5400mhz+ on the chip and rev. 4 pots on the cards and you two could take down 35k:up:

[G H Z]

That is one sick suicide & WR elmor, congrats :clap:

Maybe you need to try 2.5V :D

[Misko]

Great scores Elmor very very :sonic:

cpu voltage is awesome :toast:

[NewBeetle]

Congratulations on your C2D Max Frequency WR, elmor-san :toast: :toast: :toast:
Vcore : 2.28V is unbelievable! :eek:
I want also to add Vcore like you and to challenge your record..... :D

Yes, the Vcore is really impressive :D.

[Suge Knight]

Very nice :up:

We want more optimisation for the spi 1m now :D

[elmor]

6ghz is close indeed ...
@elmor: will you wait for 45nm extreme to push it to 6ghz?

I think this cpu can do maybe 5.9 with some more effort but I'm not going to risk it before I get to do some 3d-benches.


a good pair or 2900 and you're #1 2k5 and 2k6 :D

congrats again :)

We'll see when I get new a new pair 2900xt :)

End of summer vacation next week so probably won't have time to go and visit him in a while.


That is one sick suicide & WR elmor, congrats :clap:

Maybe you need to try 2.5V :D

Maybe I should put in like a E6600 and do some expirements on where they fry instantly :D


Great scores Elmor very very :sonic:

cpu voltage is awesome :toast:

Thanks Misko and everyone else! The cpu just wanted more and more vCore and more it got ;)

If that cpu scales with voltage that'll be trouble :rofl:


Very nice :up:

Yeah, sorry about that crap score.

[Timbosan]

Congratulations thats amazing :up: I never would have thought they would keep scaling up past 2.2v maybe the max is higher than we would have ever thought? 2.5 - 3.0v runs may be possible on LN2?

[Gautam]

Out of the Conroes I've the tried the majority stop scaling after ~1.92. :shrug: Some do well with 1.95-2.0 but 2.2+ is just nonsensical.

[Timbosan]

Thanks Misko and everyone else! The cpu just wanted more and more vCore and more it got ;)

From this it seems it kept responding to increases? Maybe just a rare case.

[elmor]

Yes, I don't know about past this point though :)

[lamboman]

Nice stuff!

[faithful10]

Very nice achievement.

This is why i love to come by this forum. If you thought you seen it all people still surprise you here.

Gz again

[Florent]

Very impressive X6800 :shocked:

Congrats elmor

[Timbosan]

why arent we seeing more x6800's at the top? why do 6700's & 6600's usually clock higher?

[Richie P]

Was over on another forum and saw their thread on elmor's WR, posted a couple of times and finally had this ass a reply...


I'm not sure about that. All these guys do is use loads of liquid nitrogen and change a couple variables in the BIOS.

ROFLMAO i joined that silly forum just to flame them lol. Thanks for the laugh man im still laughing :)
Wow, what ignorance. All they do 'over there' is remain brainless n00bs who will always fail to grasp what a really difficult journey serious overclocking is. Whats funny is they think they understand, but its clear they dont.
I guess thats why we are here at XS :up:

[before]

Very nice clocks :toast:

[Nordling]

Congrats elmor
Real good valid!
