A fanboy on another forum I frequent basically said "Conroe isn't all that, one of those Tyan servers with 100 million CPUs eats it alive at SuperPI".Quote:

SuperPI isn't SMP is it?
(btw, Fugger, check your PMs)
Updated first post with cpuid and pi.
wow, killer FSB =)
Nice jobs Fugger and FCG. Show us some more benchies now. :)Quote:

Yeah, Most of them stand buy there selected brands and try to make the most of it though.

I'm not a fan of either it's about 50/50 with me I own and X2 sys and two PD's on the way for 24/7 workstations
Two Conroes with high FSB :woot: . Conroe so far look good.
I dunno about you, but that looks bad to me, in order to raise FSB he has to lower mulitplier, that looks to me like its not a FSB issue, but a chip issue, so that would be bad if they can only top off at less than 3G, seems like Conroe aint a very good overclocker after all...:(
I didn't looked at it that way, i was refering to Yonah's FSB wall (or it's mobo related). You have point of concern there, on the other hand Fugger has no probs 8x 363 so he didn't lower his MP. We'll just have to wait for more results :).
up that voltage! lets see what these chips can really do
Be patient....more voltage and cooling will come with time.
Just think of it this way: when they can, they will.
I keep on seeing this... If it was true then why is the performance of the celeron mobile version so good at SP1, with 'only' 1MB L2 cache?Quote:

oh, don't get me wrong, I understand these are ES chips, i'm just saying that they do not seem capable of speeds that many here hope they will be, as of now all we have to go on is rev. A0 chips, so until B0 revisions are tested in overclocking we cannot assume anything other than what we have so far.
Having said that though, the 2.13 4MB chips that these guys have would seem to me to be indicitive that early revisions were not going very high since the 4MB chips are supposed to be higher clocked to begin with, this leads be to beleive that future revisions will very likely overclock better, but as previously stated, so far this has not been proven.
Waiting is the hardest part. Can we have any details of what the temps of Conroe are running at please?
@Fugger
check your pms plz
lookin good fugger, can't wait to see what you can do with fully supported hardware :D
I would like to hear the BAD side of Conroe at this point???
FCG and Fuggar ???
poor voltage options ??
poor OCing ???
cold bug ???
Granted these are not final production chips and mobos but what are the down sides at this point Intel and mobo manufactures need to improve upon??
*subscribed*
/me patiently waits to see Conroe under an uber cascade :)
Nice results Fugger, that's just an insane processor all around!
"Poor voltage options" _ Isn't that more of a board problem than anything? I'd be surprised if an Intel branded motherboard will let you change the voltage anywhere near the sort of levels required for really mad overclocking (though I could be wrong)Quote:

Wow, nice results. Thanks a lot Fugger, can't wait to see more!!
