For testing, it's a lot easier to run outside of a case. Can change out components much faster. My daily system is housed in a Mountain Mods case. Best case I've ever owned.

That's a Tuniq Tower 120. Does a really good job. It's heavy but I've used it on boards mounted sideways in a case.Quote:

Thanks, gocchin. :) The case uses eight fans. I have eight Yate Loons and as you know, they're very quiet.

I am playing with a 6600es and air.
Asus p5w dh de luxe Mushkin xp2 6400 2 x 512
zalman 9500 with extra 120mm DELTA screamer :)
One thing i have changed was my pci-e card and took a old pci vanta vid.
almost readt to post ;) but i test new mem first next week, to high on the timings
what is your best cpu-z validation at this point ?

could not get beyond that 450
no mods yett
I have not tried for a screenshot higher than 4054MHz. Generally I don't like to post screens unless I can run something with it, like SuperPi 1M. For me, it has to be benchable in some form.
The biggest obstacle with unmodded board is of course FSB. Without mod, you will run into a brick wall. Lowering the multiplier does not help, at least in my case. I believe kyosen has reached 485 with 7 multiplier and a modded board. And kaz-n has hit 502 with 6x and 4:3 ratio.
Yepp 485FSB 7x multi and watercooled N/B. I wonder what cooling Kaz-n used?
I have only tested this to see the wall :)
but in 1m i have a high 12 sec
room for improvement:)

I think he was using air. 502X6 is only 3GHz. :) More importantly he was using 1.975v for Vmch. In order to do 480+ you generally need at least 1.9v.Quote:

502FSB air is insane :)
Under 13 mins. :)

Is this with the tuniq?
The problem is the FSB wall. I've bought some VR's and will probably do the Vmch and Vdimm mods in the near future.
Ow, but you can run at that freq with lower volts then with air most likely :)
Yes, less voltage with Vapochill. I think I also had a bad mount. Will give it another try either late tonight or tomorrow.
You didn't have the same luck as PcC2iminal with the fsb @ max bios volts :(
Well I'm sure you will do some bad ass pi's soon!
Good luck.
Thanks. :) Actually I have not tried maximum voltage yet. Personally I'm not interested in just a CPU-Z validation shot. I want to be able to run 32M. Of course, it may be that he has a better chip than me, which is fine. More power to him. Still, I'm not exactly disappointed with my E6600. :)
Hehe you can't be disappointed with it :)
Hope my Asus will go far :)

Congrats!! under 13minutes.
Nice run, by air cooled.
:toast:
Nice work Sierra, I hope I can do the same with my E6600! :)
