I will get around to it one of these days. I think I get some free MBs from my Cable provider, I should look into it.

I need to put some pictures of this new FX-53 I got today on there:D

OPP

[charlie]

Think it'll be any different than your FX-51? Possibly may be a better OC'er 'cuz while your FX-51 was "good" it wasn't Tom Holck "good" :D

[nailbomb]

See you gentlemen over there. :)

[skate2snow]

you have an FX53? Is it a good CPU, or just like Prescott...?

[charlie]

Originally posted by skate2snow

Sure it's good! It's a FX-51 with a default 12x multi, and a more mature stepping :D
And sorry, Prescott's not gonna be in the same sentence as FX for a LOOONGG time.

[skate2snow]

I mean the point of "disapointing"..... not the performance....

[OPPAINTER]

I'm just hopeing to catch up with Tom Holck :D
I havn't tested yet, another hour or so.

OPP

[IvanAndreevich]

macci's site looks cool. I'll browse around for sure.

[blinky]

im lookin forward to seeing what the FX-53 can do

have you started using that submersed refrigeration project that captaincascade mentioned a while ago?

No sure havn't.

As far asthe FX-53 it's doing good so far.
I just got it going on my 404A MachI.

I still havn't left 1.5V and it runs 3D03 with out a hick up at 2800 MHz.
I wonder what It will do at 2V :D

OPP

[Geforce4ti4200]

wow not bad at all! 2.8GHz! could this be a 31.5k score for you if you own your fx51? :banana

[OPPAINTER]

Well I'm at 3010MHz with a little under 1.7V, 3d proofed.
This was the best my FX-51 did with this cooling but the 51 needed a little over 2V to get there:D

Exciting news, even on air these FX 53's are doing 2.5-2.6 in the reviewers hands.

Have you got two cascades again Opp ? Or is CC still constructing after one was unfortunate ?

Luckily I registered at akiba last year so none of the other hordes of zakelwe's can now pinch my name ;)

Nice results on the proc!

Opp, I've often wondered, are you typically lucky on getting good hardware? Does it take you a few tries to get the winning hardware?

Now don't take this as me saying no skill is involved in your acomplishments, just curious because I know how many P4C's I went through before i found an exceptional one...

I'm very unlucky with Intel.

Nice clock there OPP :)

Have you used Server 2003 for benching at all? I followed one of macci's links to SuperPi top scores and it seems like all the Jap LN2 guys are running 2003, at least for SuperPi.

I tested it a while back, ran good, I only compared it to XP at the time. I should load it up on another partition and compare w2k to it, thanks for the info.

This 53 is now 3D secure at 3100MHz with 1.9V.
The thing runs hot!! at this altitude:D

OPP

[trueplaya4ever8]

very very nice at 3100mhz, do you think you can get it stable to 3.2ghz?

[JCviggen]

OPP


the 53s i have here dont like volts :( cant run them at 3G at any voltage...must have gotten a few bad ones. I have an FX-51 that does 3000 through 3D at 1.70V :)

[OPPAINTER]

It will be 3200 3Dable with cascade cooling.

After 1.9V and being at 3100MHz this chip just gets to hot to get stable it seems.

3100 will be good fun to play with though.

OPP

[EmineM]

OPP could you give me the stepping of your FX 53 please.
have you tested 15 x 200 yet? Or just 14 x 223.
What mobo are you using? Sk8v or Sk8n?

OPP holy shiat, that chip looks insane, time to break some records :D
(ur own)


maybe if you have good luck with AMD, and macci seems to have good luck with intel, then he'll be the master of 3dmark03 which likes intel, and ur be the master of 3dmark01 which is lovin these A64/FX chips

[macci]

Looks like that FX53 is going to do some serious damage!! :toast:
12.5x256 1:1 for starters? :D

And thanks for checkin out the site guys :)
I'll try to keep it up to date and obviously I have a lot of work to do this weekend :D

[Geforce4ti4200]

wow that is insane! 3.2GHz!!!!!!!! the fx51's were speedbinned at 2.2GHz while the 53's start 200MHz higher so they may be newer steppings and/or better cores able to oc higher with less volts, thus gaining you 200MHz on top of your old fx 51. Do you still have the champ ram that did like 252fsb and your 9800xt, is it still capable of the same clocks that got you 31.3k in 2001 and 9.8 in 2003? How many marks is another 200MHz worth? enough for 10k in 2003 and 32k in 2001? :D

Nice Op! What stepping did you get? I got one (only on water) stepping CAASC 0403. Right off the bat I noticed that it runs a few degrees hotter than the 51 even at the same exact speed/voltage.

[OPPAINTER]

This stock at 2400MHz Macci.

JC,

I took off the spreader first thing. One thing I noticed when doing it, the job seemed sloppy, there was more black epoxy on side and you could hardly see it on the other.
Once the epoxy was cut the spreader just feel off, usually the spreader will stick to the core alittle from the tim,, unlike this one.
The tim job was bad, core had some untouched clean areas. I bet this chip would loose 100MHz, who knows. This could be the reason your 53s arn't so great. But then again you may have taken off the spreader all ready:D

Here's the chip INFO:

ADAFX53CEP5AT
AAABC 0405WPAW
Fxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx


OPP

[xgman]

Hmm, they have steppings all over the place on these. I've seen:
CAASC
AAASC
SAASC
AAAIC
and yours, AAABC

I've never seen so many steppings on such a limited release.

I ended up with cracked corners under the weight of a water block on a A64 and a FX51 previously, so I am a bit shy of doing that again. Anyone else see any corner cracks when removing the naked A64/FX chips? When I leave the spreader on, I always over tighten it a bit to keep it compressed on the die. Seems to help a little.

[captaincascade]

mwahahahahha

you guys just wait till you see the thing im building for this thing. I went a little overboard:D:D:D. -150c underload here we come!


actually im not gunna promise a dam thing, once you pass 2 stages...... your in flavor country.

got alot to do this weekend:(

these don't matter. what matters though it "F" in the third line code. These usually o/c very high at stock volts. I bet OPP's chip is either "F3" or "F44" so that means straight from AMD.

Its a much more controlled enviroment though. Its kind of like comparing the power of a super soaker to using a hose (in a waterfight :D) Sure the super soaker can pack more of a punch, but you have to constantly pump it up and stuff, whereas with the hose, you don't shoot quite as far, and it requires a bit more setup, but once you've got the hose, you're untouchable :D
(sorry if that analogy was close to 100% retarted.)
Plus the term "a little frost-bite" doesn't exactly describe the result of spilling ln2 :p:

OPP that is an amazing chip!

[Geforce4ti4200]

cc, -150c is most impressive! is that a full -50c colder and Maccis and Opps casades? Itll be exciting to see 32k from opp if his 9800xt can still do the same clocks it did for his 31.3k run

[lalPOOO]

Just so you stop calling it a "prometia cascade", OPP's cascade was built by Captian cascade, and doesn't contian any prometias.

However that -150 at load is hella sexy.

That sort of cooling on this sort of "good" chip is rather mouthwatering.

You and Opp got any ETA's on when it will be ready and when we can expect some 3dmark runs / Pifast etc ?

arent casades made with several stages of prometeias? like one chills to -20c the 2nd chills to -70c third down to -100, forth to -120c fifth to -133c, youd need many stages, diminishing returns after 3 stages.

Not prometeias, just phase changers and i don't think someone use 4 stages at the moment.

[Try-this]

Nice site there macci, joined it right away :D

[Crankster]

A prometia is really just compressor cooling already set up for cpu-cooling. With a cascade you have dual stages, one cooling the other so to speak.

Yup, thats a good site and has the mod answers I was looking for for the K8N Pro.

Yea, Macci's right the 24.21 was with the old Corsair ER3200 v 1.0

I have not been benching so mutch lately, (the 2 broken prommy, no god grafx) and the final cascade not finish yeat

2 weeks ago I almost done a M32 with 3120 Mhz going 260 cas 2-8-2-2 that "died" about 20 min... at that ramspeed the HD might korrupt the OS. Then windows have to be reinstalled.

I put the FX-53 in my "old" cascade at -112C today.
