That was a good interview with you in the overclocker Francois. :up:
Thanks!Quote:

I think it's a matter of nothing else to do, and partly do to the many rumors of poor overclocking from months past :shrug:Quote:

I did chat with the best overclockers in the world ... some are here, and when they release what they can do, you ll see that Core i7 and Core 2 use the same process technology: 45nm High K ... the magic is in the High K for overclocking!!!Quote:

That's great to know that you guys are taking care of the enthusiasts too. BTW thanks for coming and getting involved in the community :up:Quote:

No, both of those were with the multi knocked down to 20. Base clock goes up to 200 easily and you can probably guess what the most I got out of it was.Quote:

mbs in stock but way way way overpriced

dont think ill bother yet
also they dont have chips yet so whats the point
You'll only see big performance improvements (ie. 10% or greater) with Nehalem if you run software that makes proper use of 4 or more cores vs. current chips. This is what some have been alluding to by saying it won't be that great vs. current chips for gaming, performance will probably be almost equal on a per clock basis. The only games where this might not be true are UE3 based games since that engine supposedly is the most rigorously multi-threaded out there ATM. Allen Wake should benefit quite a bit too when being ran on Nehalem vs. current quad core chips. Since over clocks aren't all that much better either if you've currently got a quad or even dual core chip at or over 3Ghz Nehalem probably won't be worth it for you're average gamer until it gets (much) cheaper and/or agressively multi threaded software becomes common place.Quote:

I have just managed 3,9 GHz with a Core i7 920 ES (3,8 GHz without Turbo, both settings prime95 stable, screenshots below) and Asus P6T Deluxe. 1,35 V Vcore was enough for 3,8 GHz, about 1,41 V for 3,9 GHz. Not bad for basic Bloomfield :-). Other settings:
QPI: 1,4 V
IOH: 1,35 V
ICH: 1,4 V
speedstep, turbo: on (for 3,9 GHz), off (for 3,8 Ghz)
virtualization, C1E: off
spread spectrum: off
skew: auto
memory (qimonda ddr3-1066, cl7, 1,5 V): trichannel, about 1200 MHz, 9-9-9 (8-8-8 was stable tool), 1,64 V, 3N for sure

Screenshots (Cinebench R10 = 22.200 points) :

Core i7 965 XE only 3886 via multiplier :-(
Your prime Screen is without Turbo-Mode?! 185x20,5?
Btw CPU-Z show 1.43v for 3.8Ghz...
Can you run prime with correct voltage and a little bit longer? :)
So do I, at least till more games are programmed to use more than one core. Is there any word on if our 775 heatsinks could work with 1366 given new mounting equipment.Quote:

My point being, dont expect much games to come out takin advantage of 8 threads, there is only a handful of apps that take advantage of more than 2 cores, yet alone games. Most games are still single threaded.Quote:

Chri$ch: Maybe if I find some time. Creating review of all three Bloomfields is my primary task, overclocking is only fun and additional info for our readers.
High K as in this High K?Quote:

:cool:
(with the 3,9 GHz turbo and 1,42 V I ran another 40 minutes, but as I said I have to make conventional tests for review)
Btw, 4086 GHz in Turbo mode (still with air cooling):

Ufon - can you tell me if this fella will give much of a gain in 3D06/vantage ?
:up:
Ufon the reason i ask about the temps is on that link of yours real temp says 89,89,85,85 and core temp says 92,92,85, 86 , im used to with my quad max temps when folding are 56c max, so does core i7 run that hot or those temps wrong ?
also what is the intel recommended max temps for the core i7 920 ?
