why are you using the black memory slot ?
no particular reason.. looks good i guess :D
Are blue meant to be better ?
Blue sockets are DIMM0, Black are DIMM1.
I just decided on black all the way hehe
Went for my new personal best 32M time. I think this is one of the fastest times under 3.9ghz and 4.0ghz at 1:1 ??

can someone explain the strap thing please?
what should i have it set to?
lol
i'm at 40 %host burn in percentage
host burn in type positive
FSB freq overide is set to default
vcore 1.425
everything else at default
so 373x9 3.36 ghz
after about 5 min one prime just gets an error not a fail in prime but a windows error.
surely I have enough vcore going to the cpu?
please help i'm unsure what all the setings mean
nice read on strap http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=105703
Time to start playing with ram and their timings :)
At 1.312v vcore in bios with 2x512MB Corsair PC5400ULv1.5 @486mhz 5-3-2-8 at 2.2v vdimm with 1067fsb strap :)

lack of vdimm means i need cas 5 instead fo 4 for 486-490mhz mem speeds heh
sorry thread
which strap you're using 1067fsb or 1333fsb ? could be the gskill doesn't like 1067fsb strap ? tried 1333fsb ?
Knocked off 9.312 seconds of my old 32M PB of 13min 49.609s at 3810mhz with this new time @3809mhz
E6600 QPGE @9x423fsb = 3809mhz

Intel D975XBX Badaxe temp reporting seems to be off by +15C to +22C it seems

I use coretemp app http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=103638 and http://www.thecoolest.zerobrains.com...opic.php?t=137 to measure the temps. Seems at 3750mhz with 1.488v (haven't tried lower vcore for this speed) for my 2nd E6600 QPGE cpu it runs around 10-12C hotter than my 1st E6600 at 3750mhz at 1.441v but seems to clock slightly higher than my 1st.
Here's my E6600 QPGE B1 stepping #2 running Stressprime 2004 'Orthos' dual core version http://sp2004.fre3.com/beta/beta2.htm which is basically Prime95 v24.14 with a new GUI interface :)

Room temp = 23-25C
Cpu idle = 41C
Cpu load = 70-72C
So knock off 15-22C means around 50-57C load and probably 26C idle on Swiftech G4 Storm water cooling. That seems about right considering same stepping E6600 graham_h has at 3807mhz at 1.44v is idling in windows at 46C on air http://forums.overclockers.com.au/sh...4&postcount=42 (a difference of ~20C from air to water is within normal range).
its CERTAINLY OFF ;)
1.45v set in bios
http://simon.webideal.ca/Bench/3.7%20prime.JPG
Decided to setup my 2nd Intel D975XBX Badaxe rev304 board to see if it allows me a higher max fsb than my 1st board. Instead of using water cooling, decied to grab my Intel Pentium D 920D stock hsf and pluck a 80x25mm Sunon 49cfm fan on it to try air cooling. I also installed my 2nd Thermaltake Extreme Spirit II chipset cooler as you can see below :)

Full pics here
System:
- E6600 QPGE Step 5 / B1
- Stock Intel Pentium D 920D heatsink + Sunon 80x25mm 49cfm fan
- Intel D975XBX Badaxe rev 304 1334 modded bios / no volt mods
- 2x 512MB OCZ PC5400 Platinum Extreme XTC 3-3-3-8
- 256MB BFG 7800GTX stock hsf
- 74GB WD Raptor 8MB
- FDD
- 650W Silverston SLI psu
Temperatures:
I know badaxe board temps are off bty +15C to +22C, but still with stock hsf air, it's hot compared to Swiftech G4 Storm watercooling. How hot you ask ?
@2400Mhz at 9x266fsb stock at 1.275v vcore (1.242v)
room temp = 22.5C
Swiftech G4 Storm water cooling
CPU idle = 31-35C bios, 30-33C coretemp windows
CPU load = 36-39C coretemp windows (stressprime Orthos edition)
vs
Stock 920D heatsink + 80x25mm Sunon 49cfm fan
CPU idle = 52-56C bios, 40-43C coretemp windows
CPU load = 74-75C coretemp windows (stressprime Orthos edition) - even if it's off by +22C, that's 53C load at stock on air hehe.
http://fileshosts.com/intel/Intel975...me_load_tn.png
That's like a difference of +10C idle and +39C load hotter on stock hsf air than water! :eek:
Guess need to get a better heatsink but am limited due to TT Extreme Spirit II chipset cooler position, I will need a heatsink that is no more than 100mm x 100mm or has a clearance of 60mm above cpu socket to accomodate chipset cooler. Only heatsink i know that can do that so far is Tuniq 120 Tower as you can see from Coolaler's thread at http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=107212
Right now don't have any LGA775 heatsinks that i can use for this 2nd rig yet :o
How far have you been able to push your 5400UL? I know you don't want to mod the 304, but have you tested it on another board? Just curious, that mem is being starved!;)
well on stock badaxe at 2.2v vdimm max 5400UL can do is 446-454mhz 4-3-2-8 or 490mhz 5-3-2-8 :)
490mhz 5-3-2-8 at 2.2v vdimm

Is that with 2 blocks of 5400UL in there? Out of curiosity: Have you tried with 4 blocks?Quote:

If I can get ~450 Mhz fsb with all 4 memory blocks in there, the E6600 would be my choice. If not, then I'd probably get a E6700 for a 4 Ghz 24/7 stable system.
only have 2x 512MB PC5400ULv1.5 heh
Ahh allright, I'll work it out myself :p:Quote:

With 4 blocks I cannot booth with 4-3-2-4, I have to lower timims a bit, but 4-3-3-8 1:1 is fine to at least 400 MHz with only 2.2V
I remember on my previous Asus boards (P5W series etc.) I needed 0.15-0.20V more for same memory speed with 4 blocks as with 2 @ 400+ Mhz memory speed.
Nice
waiting is the hardest part after seeing this
Just took the stock heatsink off to see if i can put a thermal probe under. Looks like the spread of AS5 on IHS shows there isn't enough pressure from the stock heatsink mounting mechanism (920D).
Put the thermal probe under and boot up to bios idle temps of 99-101C :eek:
Shutt off pc ASAP, and remove stock heatsink and the probe (although very thin) seems to reduce the mounting pressure even more, only the tip of the dab of AS5 touched the stock heatsink's base!
Whether the stock conroe heatsink's mounting pressure is different not sure ???
I did lap the E6600's IHS till the copper showed, so maybe that's why ? No probs with Swiftech G4 Storm mounting, maybe due to spring tension system ?
Had to get a better heatsink for my 2nd rig, so got a Thermaltake Big Typhoon http://www.thermaltake.com/product/C...4/cl-p0114.asp but changed the stock 120x25mm 0.3A 54cfm 3pin 1.87mmH20 fan for a Thermaltake 120x35mm 0.4A 81cfm fan 4pin 4.71mmH20 fan from http://www.thermaltake.com/product/D...2003/a2003.asp
It's a huge heatsink weighing in at 813 grams but simple hand weighing guestimate doesn't seem like 813g to me shrugs

Just finished installing the Big Typhoon, I had to use the smaller H clip for mounting and instead of using the 4 include nuts, I grabbed the spare screw in stand offs off my Thermaltake Extreme Spirit II chipset coolers, so i could finger tigten the mount instead of using pliers for the nuts.

Load into bios at stock 2400Mhz 9x266fsb at 1.242v vcore showed much better temps. Same goes for in windows :)
Thermaltake Big Typhoon + TT 120x25mm 81cfm fan
CPU bios idle = 38-40C idle in bios (that's 5-7C hotter than H20 cooling but a full 12-18C cooler than the stock 920D heatsink!)
CPU windows idle = 32-33C (that's 20-24C cooler than stock 920D heatsink and comparable to H20 cooling!)
CPU load = 47-48C dual stressprime small FFTs load (a full 25+ C cooler than stock 920D heatsink and only 9-12C hotter than H20 cooling)

Looks like this 2nd Bad axe board is better than my 1st, with 1067fsb strap this board seems to be able to do 430-432fsb compared to my 1st Bad axe board which maxes at 421-423fsb at 1067fsb strap :)
http://fileshosts.com/intel/Intel975..._single_tn.png
Lucky I didn't sell this 2nd Intel D975XBX Bad Axe board, the higher fsb limit on this board allowed me to easily beat my previous best 32M time of 13min 38.062s which was on water cooling.
How's this for Big Typhoon air :D
http://fileshosts.com/intel/Intel975..._single_tn.png
And higher and faster :D

Interesting i changed fans from TT 120x25mm 81cfm 4.71mmH20 fan to Panaflo 120x38mm 103cfm fan and consistently idle and load temps are 4-8C higher with Panaflo fan :confused:
Seems the 81cfm TT fan might have more air pressure than Panaflo as i can definitely feel more air blow under the Typhoon's fins :)
Great work eva.....
Very good posting!
thanks
So far with Big Typhoon and TT 81cfm 4.71mmH20 fan 3809mhz at 1.5v but badaxe temp must be off 83C under dual stressprime 'Orthos' load LOL
http://fileshosts.com/intel/Intel975...me_load_tn.png
That failed after ~15mins heh
Dropping down to 3750mhz to see how it goes.
