Oh Thank You, Mother Nature (opty @ 3.2ghz AIR!)

[DamienKC]

Well, I decided tonight, that since it's 40 degrees outside, I'd have some fun.

I went downstairs and stuck my system in my opened sliding door and started messing with stuff. I only had about 10 minutes because my mom made me and it was getting REALLY cold inside, so that's always fun.

I didn't get a chance to tweak my ram settings or even mess with much, I just wanted to see what kind of temps I got, and I wanted 3.2ghz.

And here's my results:

My video card did 600/620 with no issues. I didn't have time to bench though, and that I'm disappointed for.

And here's the SS!

I just stuck it to 1.7v as soon as I booted because I was very short on time. I was glad I could 3.2ghz it up though, and it's still technically on air right? :D

Next time it's cold I'm going to actually take time to tweak and bench, because I bet I could do alot more.

I'll keep this updated as time comes, I bet 3.3ghz screenshot is possible :toast: :toast:

Heh, Congrats. Natural Air Cooling:D

Btw, wht heatsink are you using?

[afireinside]

typhoon in the sig ;)

[DamienKC]

Big Typhoon, unmodded in any way. I was going to buy a Mach II but I don't have the money for it atm. I'll be removing my IHS and lapping the Big Typhoon within the next month.

[OV3RCLOCK3R]

typhoon in the sig ;)

my sigs were turned off but i dont remember turning it off :confused:

Anyway, thanks:D

[mnewxcv]

wow, almost as good as i got when i ducted a A/C unit to my case; i got 12c temps for cpu. then again that was a fx-51 @2.2ghz.

[5-Clicks]

sweet oc, dude! what chip stepping is that? what do you run it at when you're in normal temperatures? i've got an 0536GPMW that'll do 2.9 @ 1.68v with an unmodded XP-120 and vantec stealth. i'm kinda looking for more... :p:

[DamienKC]

It's a CABYE 0536 GPMW, I run it 2.9ghz (323x9) @ 1.58v 24/7, idle being at 36-38c, load being 55-60c. It's a great chip for being a CABYE, I'm very satisfied. I should buy the Mach II and stick IT outside when it's really cold, that'd be interesting :D

[DamienKC]

welp its 20 degrees outside, so around 8:30 i'll be sitting my pc outside once again. since my mom wont be home I'll have all the time I want to play with benchies and whatnot. :)

[DamienKC]

Welp, got around to doing again this morning when it was around 20 degrees outside. Benching lasted 3 hours and by the time I was done it was 33 degrees outside =\

I didn't tweak memory timings because I just don't have the patience for it atm, especially with value ram, not to mention I haven't slept yet. The GOOD news is I somehow benched @ 238mhz 2.5-3-3-6 on my value memory. Yay for cold weather =)

Some stuff:

I couldn't screenshot 3.3ghz. No matter how much voltage I put through it, I couldn't do it.

Here's some good temps :D

And for benches

The SS's have all the info you probably'll need

The voltage is kind of high but I'm pretty sure it would have done those benches at a much lower voltage, like 1.65 or even less. Like I said before, it's more of a "security" thing, so I don't have to be all "ugh, it froze, time to up it". :D

Compared to my old records of 32678/14561/6997, I'd say this was a successful morning =)

[Jupiler]

Nice scores.

Winter is coming, love it.
When it's really cold, I open the window in my room, so room temps drop to 6-7°C.
My wife always asks me how I can stand the cold. :D

[einCe]

these kinda things make me sad living near the beach where its never cold.
btw i noticed you used my wallpaper :D :D

[faruquehabib]

already got snow here in wisconsin hehe...

[JasonDTM]

Yeh, its been real cold lately, I'm thankful I had my PC on last night due to it being 32*F outside hehe. :/

Damien, nice clocks, cool to see some people that live not to far away from me. heh

[Flox]

Nice "open-air"-scores. :D

Btw: any reason for the x9 multi, when using a higher RAM-divider?

Greetz, Flox

[Korpse]

Congrats but the title made me think you had run 3D01 Nature @ 3.2Ghz on that opty :p:

[DamienKC]

The reason I ran the x9 multi was because it's higher FSB and my memory would run faster (stable).

Sorry for the confusion corps, is 3.1 close enough? :D

[[XC] Jaco]

Congrats but the title made me think you had run 3D01 Nature @ 3.2Ghz on that opty :p:
yeah me too

[krampak]

Just opened the window (2 meters away from PC):D

148 CABYE 0536GMPW @ 3200Mhz SPI 1MB, 3163Mhz SPI 8MB and 3370Mhz SS!!! That's on a Hyper 6 + Vantec tornado 9cm + 5ºC air.

25,73s on Air isn't bad at all? :)

The IHS is still on.

[DamienKC]

gj, dunno why you had to thread crap though. My cpu temp was 15c higher then yours at benching too though, =)

[Mr. Tinker]

did you take the ihs off yet?

[.sentinel]

Nice Job at the 3.2Ghz. looks at window 10 degrees and wind chill below zero and pc around 1 meter underneath window. Looks at coat. hmmmmm. This is going to fun this winter for ALL of us
