Very nice chip Stilt. It's surprising(to me) that it draws "only" 107W in real world threaded workload at that clock and voltage. At 4.9Ghz this thing is everything but slow,even with it's "lowly" 2 modules :).

At stock frequency, undervolted to 1.1625V the Pmax during P95 LargeFFT is less than 55W ;)Quote:

In real world applications around 55W or so.
AMD FX-8300 95w
same C0 stepping
3.3 ghz base clock
4.2 ghz turbo

i wonder if these r cherry picked low leakage parts?
probably not but we can hope
FX-8300 should be exactly the same 'bin' as FX-8350 ;)
Vishera can operate at very low voltage after even a minor drop in frequency.
I recon the FX-8300s have 1.225V - 1.275V VID fuse for the base frequency, depending on leakage.
FX-8350s usually have 1.325V - 1.375V.
so most FX-8350 could be downvolted and fit under the 95w power envelop (at stock 8350 clock settings)??
so like ~1.2v could probably get u 95w at 4ghz?
Most of them if not all.Quote:

The PS0 Fuse VID already contains a hefty margin as the loadline specification allows massive undervoltage.
The allowed amount of undervoltage depends on the leakage as the loadline slope is in relation to current draw.
With a high leaking part I have seen up to 60mV undervoltage with the default slope.
On average with FX-8xx0 -series CPU:
At 3500-4000MHz - 100MHz increase or decrease in frequency (with the same voltage) is worth of 2W in Pmax.
At 4100-4600MHz - 100MHz increase or decrease in frequency (with the same voltage) is worth of 2.5W in Pmax
At 4700-5000MHz - 100MHz increase or decrease in frequency (with the same voltage) is worth of 3W in Pmax
The leakage is thermally induced so it increases (or decreases) along with the temperature.
Had about an hour or two fun with Piledriver for Country Cup. Just boot 'n' bench, nothing special :)

question is what volts/clock speed would it would take to reach 77w?Quote:

Core TDP = 118.25W (Node TDP - Base TDP).
Target Node TDP = 77W
Target Base TDP = 6.75W
Target Core TDP = 70.25W
At stock frequency (4.0GHz) and with the rated (1.3250V) voltage, this chip exceed the rated Core TDP by 15.5% in Prime95 LargeFFT (136.66W DCR Pmax). Therefore the Target Core TDP with this margin included is 81.1W (70.25*1.155).
Result: 3600MHz / 1.1250V
DCR Pmax: 79.6W (72A @ 1.105V)
Total Node TDP: 86.3W
In a real world application (tested with Pov-Ray 3.7 RC6), at stock frequency (4.0GHz) and with the rated (1.3250V) voltage the actual DCR Pmax was 1.57% below the rated Core TDP value of 118.25W (= 116.42W). The Target Core TDP with this margin included is 69.2W (70.25/1.0157).
Result: 3500MHz / 1.0875V
DCR Pmax: 66.2W (61A @ 1.085V)
Total Node TDP: 72.95W
The underclocked frequencies are Prime95 LFFT stable for 20 minutes or more.
ps. At 3.3GHz / 1.05V the Node TDP was 63.8W ;)
Anyone seen a FX doing 5.1GHz Prime95 LargeFFT with aircooling and with 4 or more cores enabled?
I have :)
Also had one with high htt and high mem:
http://hwbot.org/blog/wp-content//11406-2.png
Quite an FX-4300 this would be...
The CU0/CU1 are superior to anything else Ive seen in the past.
CU2/CU3 are nothing special after 4.7GHz mark.

Thermalright UEX 120 + a single Everflow 1225SU (from AMD FX watercooler).
So why isn't Amd making a 77w fx-8300 part?
im sure people would buy an 8 core 77w FX chip with slower clock speeds
i guess thats what opterons for
Massman: test PiFast, in superpi is Vishera lazy :D....
Stilt: do you think, next year we will see higher models than FX-8350? Or some new revision C1/C2?
I had about 17.41s in PiFast, but the memory was not optimised much. Next week, I will re-try (also 32M). I improved my max 1M speed by about 60MHz using PSCheck. I'm quite confident I can do a 8GHz 1M run, but I need to do some tricks to make sure the efficiency is alright :).
More next week. I'll do a write-up with tips if I get 8GHz stable :)

Not sure about a "major" stepping change however I would imagine the node is changing quite frequently, as usual.Quote:

Ultimately heat will limit the maximum frequency of course.
A high leakage CPU with with completely equal CUs (0-3) would make a stable 5GHz on a proper motherboard and the very best air cooling.
These chips are more rare than the ones which can do 8.5G on LN2.
Good to see high ram clocks are possible on Vishera looks on par with Ivy. How come everybody is running such conservative ram speeds om AMD set ups here?Quote:

Vishera looks better for LN2 OC too. Looks easy to get 8 GHz than Zambezi Bulldozer. I hope, someone will broke record of FX-8150 with new Vishera chips in freqency...I wish really some very great low VID chip for it :)
No idea why everyone is being so conservative. I've not had the slightest issue pushing the memory over DDR3-2600 and performance is pretty okay too ... if you use high HTT frequency (same issue on Bulldozer). I'm going to do a couple of 32M runs next week - seeing how high I can go with mem/nb - and probably a pifast too. Piledriver is a lot of fun :).Quote:

UD7 is limited to ~340MHz HTT (tested different samples of motherboards and CPUs), but it seems the UD3 might be pulling a little better (300+ on air compared to 275 max of UD7). Hope to get my hands on a UD3 next week :).
Not sure if it's a lot easier - tested a total of 3 CPUs so far and the two others did around 7.8GHz boot into OS whereas this one goes to boot around 7.91MHz easily. A lot better than some Bulldozer CPUs, though :DQuote:

Vishera? My first Vishera easy 8 GHz, others looking similar (others I compared only with AMD liquid cooling)
This is what caught my interest, as low as 63.8W........?Quote:

This is what gets me about AMD.
Everyone complains about how power hungry they are. Well I have my 1090t sitting at 800mhz with CnQ on with 0.8 volts going through it. I could probably go lower but just aint tried.
Why does it lag so much in SuperPi compared to the i7? 14 minutes more to complete the 32m calculation?
^^It's all about older instruction sets legacy. Bulldozer was awfull at SuperPi but Piledriver is even worse! Apart from that performance isn't that bad at all.
Exactly, everyone has been duped by Intel with their so-called "low-power usage" with all of their product range. And they really do sell heaps of their product to everyone, everywhere. Yet AMD has been painted as the old-style villain unable to compete with Intel at all. That still burns me up........Quote:

Just evaluating which cpu to drop into my now ancient 990FXA-UD7 board. Want to use it as a 24/7 server base.
