thx!

fx-57
0522TPMW
3814mhz 1m stable/ 3700mhz+ 32m on dryice :)


They time there pours with LN2 Charlie thus controlling temps within 3-5c, but they don't ever break about -85c.
Just becasue LN2 is -196c doesn't mean you have to run it at that. ;)

Also
fx-57
0530APMW looks good.

IMO any fx-57 is good down to about -80 to -85 and below that temp threshhold you loose the ddr controller so you gain cpu mhz but loose massive ddr power so its a catch22 that the higher ram combo almost always wins. :)


Yeah, I know... from the 10 or 15 times that I've run LN2...

But I was just curious if there was a difference chip to chip on temps... On my last FX55 she ran fine to about -110C base temp then I saw some issues.

Jason, while you were away, did you see THIS:

Hmmm.... what is so good about the FX57 - 0513MPMW??

That's the same week as the Fx55 BN....

So what's so good about it?? I don't remember those 55BN's clocking as well as the newer 57's I've seen around here??

yep same here charlie, those fx55 definitely ran at low mhz than the fxs 57.
