Thank you my friend. Has been a fun chip to play with, if you want it you are welcome to bench it.

Thank you my friend. Has been a fun chip to play with, if you want it you are welcome to bench it.
I may have some new numbers to post in a couple weeks or so :) - new toy -
Total weight with crate - ~325#, w/o crate ~155#.

Edit - much thanks to Scott Dumper my builder.
Should have no problem beating my 4.9ghz then Steve ;)Quote:

Always fun to play with new toys, I am having an additional 80 amp service run into my computer lab tomorrow.
SteveRo,that is sweet.looks like you will be doing some damage now.
we might need to change this to the 4.8GHz and up Linx stable club:D:
Thanks radaja - we will see, hopefully I have a good subzero chip
Just so you know I'll be in Germany for 2 weeks starting from Saturday.
Not sure when / if I can keep the thread updated during these two weeks. I'll do my best to try and find an opportunity! :up:
Keep submitting your results by any means, though! :D
Could only manage 2 cores stable in this heat on my new i7, but 4.5GHz, 20 passes was what I managed in this ridiculous ambient temp of 35°C! Hopefully I'll be fitting a new mcp355 with a split xspc reservoir in a couple of weeks, and I've been in desperate need of a pump with higher delivery head than a measily 1.2m so I hope this will make all the difference and I can return with 4 cores soon:

BTW, anyone had a false error like this?:

Nice run In-Fluence. Have you tried lowering CPU PLL to 1.40v?
Linx gets flaky sometimes, I have had weird errors also, and had it say finnished without error when the program stopped responding and failed.
Yeah, lowering pll seems to help my stability in Linx, but makes it worse in P95 - I'm yet to test this further, but it's what I found so far - anyone else?
I'm not really a fan of linx as although it's a nice, quick test for stability during extreme loads it doesnt have the in-depth testing P95 offers imo. Still, things could be a lot different for i7, and am still learning :)
First shot on water with my chip, batch is 3003B466 again.
very nice OC Gautam.you have a great chip there:up:
Congrats, thats a very nice chip you have.:up:Quote:

you have much better gflops!
i might of had memory and uncore real low - qpi was for sure (2574).
looks like you have a very good chip!
extremely good I think, an excellent H20 chip :yepp:
Thanks guys, chip definitely seems to be a keeper. I'm very pleased with the gains I'm seeing from air to water, almost 15C across all cores. I still have the mem relaxed so the gflops can actually be much higher. The loop is an OCZ hydropulse 800, Apogee XT, MCR220 and MCR320 with SL Yates in push/pull. The rad setup is overkill for the moment because I'll be adding gpu's shortly, so the temps will surely go up after that. For the time being though it's fun to let the CPU loose.
P.S. I bet 4.8 wouldn't be much of an issue with a bit of a voltage bump, but I think I'll stop here. Don't feel comfy with 1.5v unless its subambient.
I'm coming back soon with an SS setup (if Paypal lets me:shrug: :shakes:). I hope I don't need extra juice into my home.Quote:

Second one is my VM server - i3 550 KO. This one is my first KO, no idea how it stacks up compared to others. A few notable improvements over C2, bclk is excellent, up to 244 stable with 8gb and 255 bclk with 4gb. Vtt requirement is much lower (0.15v) than all my C2 i3s. Memory stability when using 10x is much improved - 2000mhz with 8gb is now possible, none of my 530's can do this 24/7 stable. As with other i3's though they turn into heat monsters if you give them over 1.5 vcore. This is cooled by a Titan Fenrir v1 with fan on max (2250rpm). Tests under liquid over the next month (mega busy with work - this has taken me weeks so far :lol:).

Im very impressed at these i3's in linx. Theyre matching and beating 4ghz+ Q9xxx cpus. Very impressive for what is essentially a dual.
well i just ordered another 530 so i hope i get the newer KO.
very nice results PiLsY
Just thought i'd better post this up before Steve get's his Cascade up and running and blast's me out of the water :D

Holy Schnitzzle - 5GHz and linx stable, astounding!
OK, so before my EVGA E760 arrives I decided to cheat with 2GB problem size... Not so legit lol but it's such a torture for my poor cooling
btw vcore shows 1.392v in CPU-Z under 100% load.

wow Kitfit! - very nice run! What are you using for insulation - eraser? front and back? 1.55 vcore very nice.
@Sniper with bettter cooling you will have no problem with 4.5 linx stable. nice low voltage too!
Had a quick shot at 4.6Ghz with my 980X
Batch: 3003B242

Zalbard can you please update OP and Official GT thread when you have a moment :up:
