Dinos that's a quick and dirty test by Linus,it's not the maximum he could get...For 30mins of OCing,it's great result on air.
Why you guys try to put a negative spin on this Deneb OCing potential?Are you scared of something or what?
Read my previous post what an article said about clock expectations.
Yeah, 3.6Ghz on AIR. Probably at 33C - 40C. Looks like a real dog huh?Quote:

Even 3.6Ghz is nice enough tho for a quick OC...
And informal...why the paranoia? Now attacking people if they dont give what _you_ want?
This is an actual user for once...in a free uncontrolled environment.
Lol I'm "attacking people"?? Are you for real man?Better check your mirror for paranoia source.
The chip= teh sucks :DQuote:

Back on topic.Here's what Linus said about his video and OCing session :
Quote:
No benches unfortunately, but that shouldn't be too much of a mystery. It's a Phenom without the TLB bug. It has some more cache, and some tweaks. I'd say probably within 2-10% of original Phenom clock for clock.
As for more headroom, I don't know how good the compatibility of this board is with the mystery chip. It recognizes it correctly, but it takes a long time to POST. I think with a better board/better cooling there has got to be more headroom in here. Like I said before though, this was a VERY quick & dirty overclock and I don't even have the chip/board anymore.
I know you guys are foaming at the mouth for this stuff, but I'm lucky I was able to post what I did.
It may still come back and bite me in the butt!
Nah, others seems to that fine when they post something you dont like. Only the 4-6Ghz is ok? Rest is negative spins and people being scared.Quote:

Read the above post for Linus' answer about the details of his OCing session.It's clearly a short session(he said 30 minutes) on a board that has a hard time posting with the chip.
He is just trying to put you in your place at the back of the Intel speed train.;)Quote:

i've already said that i am really happy to see AMD in such position and that i will buy and bench their hardware now
but we need to be vigilant for PR BS
if AMD claims their CPUs will all do 4GHz easy and some of the testing done so far from non-related sources says otherwise well it has to be said doesnt it
easy 3.6 and easy 4GHz are a lot different imo
it's not a 100MHz :banana::banana::banana::banana: up but 400MHz
how many reviews have you seen of i7 priming a 920 at 4.2GHz on air
i have an average chip i feel which requires more vcore then some of my fellow benchers but i can prime at 4.2GHz on air....not sure how stable yet but my guess is that it will handle crysis and similar fairly easily
imagine intel picking a gem that can EASILY do 4.4-4.5GHz on air cooling and everyone gets their CPUs and is getting 4GHz
there sure as hell would be a lot of pissed off ppl including me telling they about it :shrug:
we have to discuss facts so that fanaticism/fanboyism doesnt get in the way
Seriously, these guys are some kind of brotherhood. If someone post something "good", there is always one to backup him and say "Eh, you rule, and MAD more". If someone post something "bad" the brotherhood is right there to say "f*ck you Intel dog" in unison. Pfff get real guys, that behaviour is just retarded.
And no real info about perfomance or clocks yet :(
What's the fight here?? AMD's coming back in the fight with some nasty weapons under it's sleeve! It could be another good chapter in the computer era, with ATI coming back and then AMD, all competing with their opponents to offer the best bang for the buck! If you wanna buy only Intel, then go ahead. Wanna buy AMD: Go ahead! In the end, the only winner is us, since we are the one getting these excellent chips! We are the one that are getting these speed boosts year after year! Come on, stop arguing over who's a fanboy... we don't care, as long as AMD delivers quality products, everybody here wins!
:p: OOUCH! :rofl:Quote:

Current i7 systems seem not to run the steam benchmark of the sciencmark2 suite. Abit OT but has this been sorted out or even discussed?
noone said its a dog... As for temps well see that with the retail samples.Quote:

For Amd it's hard to tell right now... on Amd own PR-show they said 4ghz+, we saw 3,6ghz form linus and saaya said 4ghz+ only for good chips and 3,6ghz for pretty much every chip (on air).
What to belive?
Honestly, i dont know, i'll wait till the 9th of december to make my judgment on this. :up:
IF the Dec. 16 availability date posted by a vendor HERE in Italy is in fact real, then maybe you will see some "legitimate" benchies in early Dec.
The fact that prices are posting in Australia and Italy is a good sign. But it always could be BS. We can only hope for benchmarks in Dec.
Im thinking if he showed that undisclosed cpu at 4ghz on air plus the fact the cpuz shot shows 8mb of cache that it would be to obvious? and violate the NDA? Maybe there are some lines they cant cross and showing the cpu at 4ghz on air is one of them.:shrug:
Oops, Linus seems to have the C2s. My bad.
What about ACC, though? Was it used?
Do we know for a fact that C2 was used exclusiverly at the infamous demo to journalists? I wonder if it was ES or retail version. :shrug:Quote:

not trying to start anything here, i just thought that this was a bit insulting considering the expertise of this forum
I think you are overestimating the rationality of many on this forum.Quote:
