nice runs lastviking and equinox. :up:
I now have my water loop good down to -60*C. Now I need to modify the a/c unit and start chilling the water. Right now I have my rad in a bucket of ice water. I doubt I'll do anything exciting, but will post soon if results are better.
Very nice, everyone!
Well, it's obvious that I can't compete with Lastviking without cold. I did come very close to 4 ghz, but I'll fry it if I push harder on room temp.
Problem is I don't want to freeze my butt while I'm fragging ;) And I'm after a daily driver, suicide runs aside. Btw, it would be nice if aod showed total cpu volts, not just vid. I had +.1 in bios, but I suppose I could see it under board status.
Here's 3969 at 30 min and idle:

lol ive been trying for 4.2 for like the last 3 hours - ive had it crash after 10-15 min. like 10 times... 50C max temp w/ 1.65v :p: using a window ac unit in nov :shrug: i dont know if im gonna get it though i might have to wait for real winter to set in, it should be below 0 here before too long :) its still like 50 out right now for some reasonQuote:

last 2 tries priming @ 4.2ghz on my cold air crashed at 26 and 25 minutes :shakes: temps right around 50c... i guess i need colder air
So, I tried as much cold as I could arrange. System is balanced on the edge of the window :ROTF:
Outside temp is 7C. I managed 4031 @1.525v. Interestingly, I tried the same freq and voltage as Lastviking at slightly better temps, but it would reboot right away. I had to increase from 1.475 to 1.525 to stabilize it. At a marginally higher freq and much higher voltage, I'm hitting similar temps under load. So it appears he has the better pistol :(
So, 36C at load, 18.9 idle. I really don't want to fry this by pushing volts any higher (again) and for some strange reason my wife wants to spend time with me :shrug:
It's been a blast!
:clap: :lol2:Quote:

This is about all I could get today as the outside air temp where the radiator sits was between 46-47F+/- (8C+/-) during the test and going up. The test system along with the rad is at the window on the East side so I’m getting quite a bit of backlight in the photos so I included a screen shot below each photo.
I know the SS of the test running was beyond the 30min cutoff but I was eating breakfast during the test.:)
Test running, during first test the temp goes to 35C and tops out at 40C+/- by test 15 (1.61V+/- in bios

lol... madness. I connected a duct to my heatsink fan and put the other end out the window... works great and is much easier imo! Maybe you guys should try it out and save your computers from falling out a window lol. Here's a pic of my old setup:

Yes Lars, I'm using the WC in my sig, with the rad still bolted to the back of the pc. There's a pic earlier in this thread. The chip is a little stepping challenged, I think. It reminds me of the time my Subaru blew a head gasket at 250,000 kms. I was only disappointed because it was a Subaru, and I had high expectations. For many other brands making it to 250k would have been awesome! So it's all about expectations... Nice ductwork btw.
I feel it's my duty to point out that we are all running on "Windows" :rofl:
funny the things we do for a overclock...:)
You giving me too much of ideas! Cool ideas (pun intended:p:)
Great work everyone!:up:
I like to play these games also, but saddly I have no WC setup so ignore if you wish.
Quick and dirty OC here to 4.0ghz
But you know, I never, ever like to do anything nice and easy...

So I like to take this Prolimatech Mega Shadow Heat Sink and get it rolling, with the big wheels of the Delta "Mega Fast" 7,000rpm 252 CFM fan.
Thats right, be sure to turn it up !
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jnot8NmBFos
I had 2 regular fans in push pull on before this and saw about 5c temp drop with the Mega Fast. This fan is about as loud as my Cascade and you can feel the air flow over 3 feet away. Its a bit to much LOL.
http://img684.imageshack.us/img684/7324/img1450e.jpg
http://img684.imageshack.us/img684/6...c3airtestp.jpg
7000 RPM, :shocked:
What were your regular fans you had on before? I feel like it should be more than 5C drop, that fan is BEASTLY.
Fans before were just some case fans I had laying around, nothing special.
I might try pulling the air through the HS as I had it blowing throw it, not sure if it will make any dif tho.
I am sure there are better fans for this, I am not really a Air Cooler guy so I don't know.
Chew said to me to get ahold of 2 Sanyo Denkis amd as he is usually correct. when I let him that is ;) I might try out some of those.
The Mega Fast is clearly to loud for normal use.
Colder here tonight, so one more run. Outside temp is 0C, and the pc is in the window again :) Not sure of the exact temp at the window. I took a pic, but didn't bother uploading it since it's in the same spot.
The run is 4118 @ 1.568v (+.1 in bios, and set 1.475 in aod).
Good one there... looks like i need to try more, it was colder in sweden to. But i stoped to early i see. And know i need to work again.. and its looks that it will geting hoter tonight again :(Quote:

It looks like my chip needs more volts than yours. I could have done a run at -3C, but I'm getting nervous of condensation. Although it's probably ok with the case drawing in room air and exhausting it out the window. I can see wanting to run a rad outside, but it sometimes gets very cold here when winter sets in, so I'd need antifreeze.
I visited Sweden for work in the mid 1990's and enjoyed it very much. I was in Norrköping for 5 days, with a night in Stockholm at the beginning and end.
Good luck, and don't work too hard.
nice cooling, my idea, its ok this setup and condensation?Quote:

I knew I should have held back that last run till the last minute, or better yet done a run at -3c. :( But it just didn't seem fair at the time (but sounds like a good idea now :eek:)
Viking, if you are still awake, you can relax. It's 5 or 6 degrees warmer here than when I did the last run, and getting warmer. I've been trying, but it's not gonna happen. I dropped the nb multi, tried lower volts, and higher (up to 1.632 :shocked:) but it just needed more cold.
Congrats!
Unless it starts cooling off ;)
Hi Folks,
I know I've been kind of quiet lately, just haven't had any killer results to report... :p:
I see the Vcore some of you folks are running and my chip just doesn't seem to like anything much higher than 1.5v, believe me, I'VE TRIED.
I've been on my "Ugly Water" the last few days and have never seen temps over 50c, so I'm pretty sure it's not a temp problem.
It's not all a bad thing, this chip will do 4Ghz easy (@1.475) which makes it a killer air chip but I was hoping for a little more with water and voltage...
I'm certainly NOT complaining! :D
I'll play with the IMC a little more tonight, maybe that will help me get more on the core without adding v's....
I did notice my Mobo NB and PWM section getting REALLY hot since I went to water, so I added an Antec "Spot Cool" over the PWM heatsink tonight.
I'd really like to get 4.1/2.7 stable. I think it's doable... ;)
If I get it I'll post some screenies.
BTW: I'm doing this on ambient w/water, I got tired of shivering (hehe).

These parts are relatively low leakage and efficient. So they are working well on H20 & agressive air and are showing nice scaling in the 35C to -20C range and beyond. I am suprised by the (relative) consistency and goodness of the results. They are not particularly voltage tollerant without substantially decreasing temperature. Phenom II scales like none before with cold, but I offer some perspective, we can (sometimes) get to 1.8V at -260C. So between 50C/1.35V and -260C/1.8V you've got a voltage tollerance line, more or less, and certainly always on the edge of failure.
People seem to think the Crosshair has an edge driving core frequency. Also, I think big radiators and airflow help. But you already know this. :ROTF:
Thx for nice fight....it was very hard...both cpus clocked about same i think, i hade very hard to make the 4140mhz run i think it crashed about 5 times, so i did one @ 4130mhz first that one crashed first also... but when i did it a second time i succes and after that i did it on 4140mhz but fail @ 4150mhz.Quote:

To my credit, I haven't popped one yet (Mobo's are a different story:rolleyes:)...
I'm probably not really extreme enough for this site, but I hear ya Simon...Quote:

I don't really push too hard, I look for stability first and work up to max clocks slowly. This chip still ROCKS... :up:
I really want to play with exteme cold, but I don't have a POT or a TEC and leaving the window open when it's 32f outside just ain't working for me... :D
Viking:
At 4144, I could get about 10 minutes in. I suspect that a little more cold would have done the trick.
Check out loc.o's post in the c3 results thread. There's an extremely cold, fast 0942fpmw :shocked::clap:
Daveburt:
I can relate to the "shivering" remark.
1. Light woodstove
2. Close office door
3. Open window
4. Place PC on the edge
5. Put on extra clothing
6. Keep hands in pockets, to retain ability to operate mouse :)
64NOMIS:
I should add that there's a fine line between being bold/aggressive, and stupidity. I probably crossed it, and just got lucky that I didn't fry my chip! At least I have my 550 to fall back on, and the latest 790xt-ud4p bios would let me disable that pesky weak core. (I didn't want those grapes anyway ;))
What I'd like is 4 ghz and a bit and high nb for day to day use, without freezing or having to wear earplugs :D That, and fast graphics too!
Thanks for encouraging us to push the envelope.
Simon is this the same 940 you used in this thread?? http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=215894Quote:

Thanks FlanK3r, I’m using liquid cooling. I posted (post#98 of this thread) a photo of my cooling setup. The radiator isn’t that big 169 sq/ins and it is mounted outside as shown in the photo. I’m encouraged by how well the cooling has worked so far and expect better results as winter sets in although I may need to add another pump.:)Quote:

I know i did have same trouble before with me 940BE when i did use Dfi board... got random blue screens @ 1066 5-5-5-X. Phenom II have some trouble with memmorys...got friends some have trouble with DDR3 also. Dont know if IMC/L2 voltage have some inpact on memmory stabilty also. I did have 2x1024mb OCZ pc1200 sticks before also and i could not run them @ rated speed also... crashed in 3dmark2006.Quote:

I with i could run rated speed but its dont work....to much money to buy sticks and see whats work best to...looks like some sticks works beter with Phenom II than anothers.
Looks like it was DD2 vs DDR3 (Lastviking - Grinder)

2.1v or 1.8v?
Im pushing 2.1 through them and they are rated at 2.1vQuote:

Maybe this cpu IMC wanted another settings in bios.
If your ram modules have Micron D9 chips it may be a sign of the chips wearing out.Quote:

My first post of results to this thread was on room temp air, before the duel with Viking. I had had a 3.9 run, but not at high nb, so was trying to find a balance. I ended up at 3850 cpu, 2750 nb, ref clock @250 and 3:10 divider for 1666, still with 7-7-7-21 1T 28 and 1.65v. Wasn't completely stable for 3dmark, but I might be able to stabilize it (haven't gotten back to that yet).
My 790xt seems to have a bios issue with the 1600 divider and c7 (won't post) but is fine going at it the other way. The ripjaws aren't optimal for amd, but for $93 canadian, I'm happy with 1666 c7 and tight.

Mine 4ghz stable @ 1,45v , just to go to 4.1ghz u need 1.50+, don't know if i'ts worth..
4000 @ 1.425 was not prime stable and i didn't test it at 1.45
anyway, that was with my "stock" fan, now I have two 150cfm fans on the heatsink :) currently 4100 seems stable (it's 20 minutes into prime small) @ 1.52v, but core temps are ~60C. I didn't try anything else yet.
MUST...GO...COLDER...Quote:

Nice to see some more results!
leoy: Very nice! I'm thinking about trying this chip in my M3A79-T this weekend for some DDR2 action myself. ;)
I'm not as wealthy as you bro :p:, but I'm using a GBT 790XT-UD4P w/DDR3, pretty close....Quote:

Think I need to send you this chip Simon.....It's pretested with voltage so.....I don't think it will meet the demise of your 940 :DQuote:

Rooms still spinning when I close my eyes. Yeah, at 1.53 that's a monster. I would ask if you are on air or H20 but I know your fondness for winter nights and believe it could well be on air...Quote:

Anyway, I actually got it Cinebench stable @ 4.18 w/1.55v and all other clocks lowered (<2100 on the IMC and HTLink)....
I realize there are other things to consider when running high V's (ElectroMigration), but temps weren't a problem (less than 50c)...
Oh well, I've found the limit of my Core (4.16 @ 1.5v)... I'll keep playing with it and see what I can get on the other clocks...
BTW: Drunken posts don't make ya bad! Happy Turkey Day Simon... ;)

Nice result, lets see the C3 :D. You still using a MA790FXT-UD5P? What were the temps?Quote:

Haven’t had a chance to test it yet, but got the evening freed up so should hopefully have some sort of results later tonight :)
Is that true of c3's as well? Or did you mean for a c2 to achieve 4056/2500nb at that?Quote:

Does that make mine a good candidate for extreme cooling? (charged said this in another thread, but I don't really have access to more than outside air at this point).
Forecast is warm here for the next week :shakes: Otherwise I might try another run above 4 gig but with higher nb and mem.
Happy Thanksgiving to my neighbours to the south!
and maybe a bit NB voltage (+0.1 i have)Quote:

Seems to be trailing my board I prepped for ln2 with a really strong PWM so I guess I made the right choice as far as a cold board between the 2.
I might swap out a few boards just to see if it yields any diff on the same chip.
Chew, i have under table new Seasonic 650W 4x12V with 18A. Do u think, can it me help with higher stabil clocks (to time i have 500W Seasonic with 2x12V and 17A)?
For 2d probably be good, I prefer single high amp rails for 3d benching myself.
A quickie;Quote:

Needs 1.37v to pass cinebench at same freq. More to come :)

Add another MSI to the death toll...... died at 1.568vcpu, 1.3NB_vid, 4240cpu/2540NB/1688ram at about 25min prime stable.
it was GD70 ?:( Ah...unlucky MSI boards :( Or maybe exception?
I think with nb@1.4up and a good ddr3 this C3 can run nb 3000 easy
It seemed weak compared to my other GD70 which has run prime at 4.2g quite a few times....on a side note I find it surprising it nuked with a 125w chip, maybe my prior run with the 140w pushed it over the edge. Hopefully I can get an RMA as this is just my board I use for air / water reviews.Quote:

Board was being actively cooled so I urge you MSI guys to take it easy trying to keep up with the pack in this thread.
I had to reinstall windows so i haven'd had much time with the new cpu yet but playing around with the tweaker function revealed my new C3 can do 1M at default 1.375V. :)
Prime rebooted within a minute though.
Yeah, my MSI GD-70 died about the same way (maybe a little higher voltage). I was benching the 550 unlocked at the time and I also was lucky because the 550 survived.
Ok so back to old faithfull......c2 gets stomped on.

cinebench for kicks.

And a moment of silence for my MSI with less than 4 hours on board :(
http://chew.ln2cooling.com/965BE/IMG_1787.JPG
That makes me a bit nervous. Though, I've pushed some pretty high volts for what cooling I have and everything has been a-ok.Quote:

You guys are tearing it up! Fantastic results! :up:
chew* ain't that a bit much Vcore for a C3 cpu? Still awesome though. My condolences on your board, i know what it's like, i recently lost my golden Rampage Extreme. :(
This weekend i will see where my system will land.
OLDTIMER:whats your chip serie?
FlanK3r, I posted a photo of the chip in post #66 of this thread.
Its here :)....tomorow or at sunday it go into motheboard with a few next components (HD5770, new 120mm fan, maybe PSU 650W ?)

I haven't tried lower Vcore but i think 4GHz at 1.4V is pretty impressive i think. :)
Zeus: yes, u right, its soooo cool, 1.4V and 4 GHz (+250 MHz up comparsion with x4 955)
