System
- Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 Q740A493T 2L7**** / **0909
- CPU Cooling: Dtek Fuzion Rad Tower Box
- Asus Blitz Formula 1402 bios
- 128MB Gainward FX5200 PCI
- 2x1GB Crucial Ballistix Tracer PC2-8500 dual channel kit (white dimm slots)
- Memory cooling: 120x25mm Thermaltake 81cfm fan
- 80GB Hitachi 7K80 SATAII
- Pioneer DVD-RW
- 620W Corsair HX620 PSU supplied by Corsair
- WinXP Pro SP2 Nlite Fully Updated.
With new 1402 bios, lowest cpu clock to go sub 11min Super Pi 32M with DDR2 memory so far is 4103.7Mhz.
Efficiency = 4103.7 x 657.516 seconds = 2,698,248 :D

Nice results...
I reckon you give the Blitz the flick and try the DFI...:D
Peace...
Any chance for this chip on SS/DS/LN2 ? :)
Yeah will do SS later :)
nice work eva2000 specially with such low vcore, give her 1.75v now and she will fly on phase :yepp:
Thanks

:cool:
you're a benching machine eva i think you get up in the morning and immediately start benching ;)
nah.. what's sleep ? :D

yeh we'll get all the sleep we'll need when we're dead :) you're not a terminator by any chance are you eva with the one red eye focused on the screen
LOL... can't keep my eyes open now.. so off to bed haha...
Nice chip man.
What clocks you going to run 24/7? 4.5?
Probably 4000mhz at 1.28v is 24/7 for this cpu.. but it's for benching as i have Q6600 quad core for 24/7 rig :)
Commando takes on E8500 http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=174868 :)
George , can you do me a favor please ?
I want you to try again running orthos at the same voltages & Mhz you've run it at day1 . There are many reports of degrading CPUs
Bit hard to do.. cpu is on phase change right now
don't forget to note if those reporting users are changing boards/bios or cooling setups between their tests. These factors can also change the amount of vcore needed depending on board/bios/cooling used or environmental temperatures ;)
24/7 usage on water,bench on water...
still have the fall of Mhz with same Vcore..
These 45nm can easily boot into Windows at high freq but pretty hard to get it stable (i.e. Orthos).
Of course this can happen , but when you lose 80Mhz in just 2 days (because you benched with your single stage at 1.75v) it's easy to spot . Watercooled before , watercooled after . Same bios , same setup , same room , same temps.
I wish more people do the test and report . A poll must created also in this forum.
