yes, I admit it. I'm slowing down but maybe, just maybe next week I can show a taskmanager SS with 24 threads also.. :wasntme:

Has this new SS anything to do with new toys produced on 32nm tech. and clocking like crazy?
You would need Quad Socket board though .... :cool:

32nm yes, quad socket no..:D
12 cores/24 threads..
Now lets get back to Steve's monster..
Hey Stephen, get your arse in here with some benches or do I have to CALL you!:rofl:

Oh! :hitself:
I forgot virtual cores :p:

Not to derail this thread any further, Stephen come back with some nice info/tests to cheer us up before Christmas!

To see how well it performs pr clock

I think you can get better apps to measure that. I don't think 3dmark would be the best for that.

agreed, 3dmark is about speed not cores..
cinebench, wprime, thats where the dualies shine..
Also Alex Yee's pi app y-cruncher is excellent for this.:up:

Does not work.. at least it doesn't work on a DP Westmere-EP (which has 24 threads as well). Just throws an error upon starting the test. I guess it can't handle more than 16 threads, just like CB10.

Not for me. I ran 3DMark06 on my dual gainestown at 3458mhz w/EVGA 260GTX and the scores were SO bad I was embarrassed by them.
I think the score was in the 19,000 range..
Speed not cores is what you need for that bench..

euhm yes, but i was talking about cpu test alone, and then compare them to singlke, quad or anything else, you would notice a diffrence though :D

yes, agreed, I think my cpu score was huge.. 8900 or something like that.
it's been a while..

Just checked.
score was 19042 and cpu score was 8341

:rolleyes: :confused::shrug:

And killer thing is if this is only 1S setup 42s OMG

as far 128kB+128kB L1 cache goes that might be just cpu-z misinterpret as it could be that now when bullydozer have X2 inside core they decided to put whole X2 size of cache inside core. Is this cache shared between FP/ALU on core level?

Just look at Intel leaks, they are maximum 6 months before official product launches, that's when OEM's and ODM's are getting their first samples for validations.

aGreed with you ... but you're wrong about AMD. Just ask s7 when he get his G34 batch of Magny-Cours chips? It seems few month before schedule for me if we're talking about usual 6 month engineer validation time.

As some sites reported AMD had working 32nm proto-production in September so it might be some SOI prototype (far fetched) or it might be fake as usual on that chines pop-PR sites

It's a real question could CPU-Z 1.52 detect 32nm CPU, AVX instruction an fake steppings if cpu-z author don't even know which specification to address!

btw. s7 why this Magny-Cours sample has only 10MB of L3 cache when 2x Istanbul die should carry 12MB of cache? They deliberately sacked that part of cache for ES? (and could you pleas post SS in png format is somewhat smaller for those kind of pics)
12-09-2009, 10:53 PM
muziqaz

hlopek, that screenshot is fake.

and s7 chip shows up with 10Mb because of the Probe Filter, which reserves certain amount of cache for itself :)

I have here a 32core engine waiting to bring this Magny-cours easy to his limits!!

Will he come between the Westmere/Gulftown cpu's with this Chess test?

Yeah,i'am very curious to see results!

What OS are you running?

Is your board an ES as well?

Great benches.

Can you please run Sandra 2005 for me (the CPU arthimetic benchmark) and report back the results? I'm very curious to see what it'd get in MFLOPS.

this is simply astounding... if you're still there what motherboard was the overclocking of the 12-core Mangy-Cours done on????:shrug::shrug::shrug:

was thinking of building an 8-core Magny-Cours just for fun and crunching...
3.0ghz would be acceptable if it could be done...:D:D:D
I could build me one for just over 700.00 but it would only be stock 2.0ghz:(:(

Thanks for the inspiration...:up::up::up:

I'm tempted to build a dual socket server but 24 cores @ 1.9ghz isn't fun. 2.5-2.8ghz on the other hand. :D

Has anyone tried this?

What are your system specs

Movie Man,

Are you using the dual core 6000 mb?

I am looking at building one for a SQL Server because I can use all of the cores, not to mention the 64 Gigs or ram.

I'm using a Asus KGPE-D16 motherboard:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-643-_-Product
with 2-12 core AMD 6168 MC chips(1900mhz)
Board is solid as a rock.:up:
It's been at 100% load 24/7 forover 3 months now.
Temps in a 72-75F room run at 39-42C using the Dynatron A6 heatsinks.

Nothing,nada..
I don't even know if it's possible as "some" people have been working on this for months and no luck yet.
Ican say that at stock it is asstable asanyone could ask for.
Been at 100% load for months now and not a hiccup.
Runs at 41C loaded in a 72F room.
Forgot to turn on my heat downstairs when we went from summer to fall and the other day I go down and thermostat says 53F and the machine is at 33C loaded..:rofl:

Temps aren't the issue, bios is..
Move the ref clocks just THREE points and it crashes..
Yea, some very smart people have been trying but no luck..
It's like something is saying you will not OC this system..:down:

Now will someone go and knock on S7's door and tell him to stop in and say hello..
