It does around 41,5k/d sustained average.. #5 of all the machines on WCG (560,000)
ofc right now it does 0,0.. man this sucks.

hmm, gonna have to tweak mine some more then, i cant get nearly that many points... 3 days of running , i only accumulated like 5k
that's WCG points... average BOINC points are somewhere around 5800/d.
sounds a little better, i got 15k of those..
Well you need to bear in mind that mine was specifically designed to crunch, that it does and nothing else. No downtimes, no other tasks taking up any CPU time, x64 OS with little to none background stuff running etc.
Same issue here.
But CPU-Z indicates it's PC2-6400 (400Mhz) memory. So it's 800 memory? :confused:
But why the h*** can I not OC past the 400 Mhz?
At FSB 401 it boots but freezes at testing.
At FSB 410 it doesn't boot at all.
Tried Vcore at 1.30 V (I have L5410 E0, they run at 1.212 V) and MCH at 1.3V.
BTW : they are 4x2 GB Kingston. Temps are usally at 60-70 C. PSU 1100W.
So what am I doing wrong?
NB too hot? What's your VTT voltage in bios? Try 1,35V MCH and maybe 1,86V Vdimm.
Usually if it doesn't boot, it's the CPUs not being able to handle the FSB. But since your CPUs are E0 step, this seems unlikely. Dunno, you are the only one with L CPUs AFAIK.
see with mine i can boot 410 , but it becomes unstable. and if i adjust the Vcore to 1.325 where i want it. when i reboot, it tells me failed overclock, settings restored to factory default, so i just stick at 3.6ghz at 400fsb
BTW: Is there a way to see the temp of the NB?
yeah, asus probe has the MB temp, that is the NB temp..
try 402 or 405 instead of 401?
Also test with the multiplier reduced.
anyone know of compatible waterblocks for the north/south bridges??
i keep mine 35-40c...
tried other FSB's as suggested by STEvil, no luck :(
I'm a bit disappointed on the OC possibilities and I'm considering buying a i7 920 + Gigabyte X58.
Anyone interested in a Asus z7s ?
I'll soon have 2 as well, lol.
My replacement arrives tomorrow, finally. Let's just hope it's a good enough clocker like my past one was.

i have the same issue, i don't know if its a bios problem or whatever, it
actully gets on my nerves to, whenever i oc it says it failed, i go into bios do the exact same settings oc works perfectly fine, run prime95 and no errors? hmm..
i was also thinking of moving to a i7 build!
anyone want to buy a z7s and qx9775 XD
The Z7S is still buggered with QX9775's...
explains the problems then.. ugh,
is there any word of a fix for it?
Read yesterday about the new Xeon 74xx 6-core serie.
Can't really tell for sure if it will also be available for 771 socket.
However that would shine another light on the Asus z7s.
Enough future upgrade power available for the upcoming year(s) ;)
I will stick with my z7s for the moment.
Hexacores will be socket 603 (or 604? one of those) only. You also need a quad socket mobo to utilize the full potential of these CPUs.. even though they are old tech, FSB266, 65nm and such. I'm willing to bet a high clocked Gainstown (Dual Nehalem) won't be much slower, if slower at all.
Also 4 of these CPUs will be ridiculously expensive, like in the 20k $ range with mobo and ram.
