rly looking forward to this webcast!!
I don't get those guys flaming about fakes ..
if they think so okay.. but a whole community with rly proven members to make a big storry up, just to be proven wrong and lose all their reliance they worked for?? For what? to lose all that, just to trick some AMD users in false hope`?
Never mind ^^ just my opinion
And yes i like Green but i also do own some Blue chips..
Based on Shanghai power consumption, typical problems of early new CPUs to have problems with temperature sensors, etc. But in the end, the idle temperature doesn't matter very much as compared to the load temperature and both are subject to error and therefore less important that actual power consumption.
There is a interesting post in the i7 ocing thread in the Intel section, 4.515GHZ @1.37v. Nice idle temps on air.

Anything is possible.
42c with a stock 9950 cooler is fantastic.
Gotta give AMD some credit, not a peep of info before Barcelona was released. now you can't keep them quite.
I hope to not be DEVASTATED this time. :p:
I'll be watching the vid for sure! :up:
I can't believe they are even paid to do the vid... (jealous)
Quit teasing people! Launch these processors already :D
8 AM CST, that is 9 AM EST I think if I don't have my timezones confused again. Darn, I'll be at work then.
There are something like 20 CPU's here at XS that have ran the Chess benchmark at between 4-4.35GHz, none of them were crashing or throttling. That benchmark fully loads all cores 100% and does 8 threads. I have one at 3.8GHz and have ran that bench and am over 30 degrees from the TjMax with a box stock cooler, when the cores are fully loaded for 10 minutes HT enabled 8 threads. It reaches max temp and planes off at around 2 minutes of calcultions. Once it reaches that temp it stays there. Not even near the TM limit.
I'll be at the Boston little get together this Friday to see for myself.
yup, already got my invitation..:D
Yes, I know, but there is no reason to. I've never gotten anywhere near the TjMax. 4 will get closer to it, but I haven't heard anyone that has said their system was crashing and throttling.
thats nice
Or Brisbane whose DTS were broken on release and has apparently yet to be fixed, or the stuck early Intel 45nm DTS, or their wildly changing Tjmax values.
It means very little without knowing the accuracy of temperature sensor; if there was a power consumption figure then that could corroborate or reject the idle value.Quote:
Since ambient should be around 20, I think 28 on idle does say a lot. Especially if you consider that both 9850BE and 6400+ idle with a TRUE where like ~30 on stock with ~20 ambient.
Live streaming starting in 15 minutes @ http://www.mogulus.com/amdunprocessed
It's streaming now,although choppy a bit.They showed a vid of 6.2Ghz OC.
Do i see Sampsa there :) ? He spoke just 10 secs ago.
