Are D0's showing same batch-variations as C0's? In case which batch is showing better OC, any pattern is emerging?
I know it is too early to have a firm answer, but I will be able to pick a i7 920 D0 or W3520 from a local store next week and I may be able to choose between different batches. Which one should i chose? Any pattern i batch or weeknr. ( for 920 or W3520 ) i should look for?

This is only bringing the same circular argument down a peg. Another set of variables and subjective viewpoints rolls right along with it. I could easily say there is no such thing as stability and talk my way out of it. I honestly won't because it is a waste of time and I don't really care enough, but you should understand where I am going here.
The term "stability" should be used loosely. The range of its usage and interpretation is as ambiguous as finding what looks aesthetically pleasing in a work by Picasso. The range can go from an LN2 overclocked CPU viewpoint to the viewpoint at the transistors level or even lower.
Take the term with a grain of salt. Use context clues to "infer" what the individual is speaking of. Honestly all of us here have a common understanding of stability (well the more knowledgeable anyway), so as long as the subject matter isn't way off, let the term run its course. The catalyst here was when a specific member broke that common understanding with the prime stable claim. He was called out and the brains here know what the truth is. Next!
With that said, let us get back on topic ;). I'm personally waiting on the 975 for my results but I have some choice friends hovering around with D0 on the horizon........
TinTin,
Did I say "plenty of headroom"? Yikes! 5022 is beyond words, and 4809 loaded with a superpi run is
impressive as well. Looks like your chip is golden.
;)
This was a limit. :(

I got mine today thanks to pao_revolt from Ebay. Ordered on Saturday and got it today, now that's fast. Did I mention it was only $257 after the live.com cash back. Batch number is 3849A895. I will post results once I get it installed. I cannot wait.
Here is where I am so far, not sure how "Stable" it is, but I am on it right now. :D
http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=555012
Vcore is 1.39v 220x19 with HT and Turbo on.
Raising the PCIe freq also helps the Gigabyte Extreme!
Very cool!!!
The 215MHz are running right now. Temporarly I didn't have enough time to test the right Vcore....
http://www.abload.de/thumb/4500vmys.jpg
The Vcore is not adjusted right now, it will probably go a little lower!
No, check the CPUz, it's 4623 because of turbo mode, hence why stated it was with turbo mode on. That being said I am still trying to get it stable and with my limited amount of time I am close, but I had to go up to 1.46v vcore and vtt to 1.41v. I will have more time tonight once I get home from work. I may have to back it down to 215 for a daily overclock.
Those D0 results are just too nice, looks like too many people are aware of them though:p:, the value of my voltage whoring 940 went down like madness, only got like 10£ leftover after selling it and buying a 920 D0.
I'd say the worst part is that you payed the premium for a 940, opposed to the fact that it's a C0. :sofa:
what are you cooling that with?? a hair dryer?? lol
mine is close to the same speed as you but, damn your temps!.

No worries, sorry if I came off as an arse, I was still pretty excited.
That is not "Guaranteed" Stability. Determining stability is a determination, and a determination by definition that is a quantitative outcome by degree. Since the outcomes is variable, and by definition mathematically determined, there can be (and is) no guarantee.
Determining stability is not the same as guaranteeing the stability.
Well put!
Determining stability is simple...boot the computer, see if it works properly,
even if all you do is stare at the screen, you need not even move the mouse around.
Even if these so-called "stability tools" worked, the best they could do is *predict* stability, not guarantee it. But there certainly is a guarantee,
the one we all know about, the three year guarantee by Intel.
okay well here is a link to 5.0ghz stable using your methodology

What word would you like us to use then? My overclock is "presently functioning"
I think he has a chiller!
so you prefer this? http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=554447
yes it is stable. I have bumped it up to 4.6Ghz now, here is 50 passes of Linx got a bit hot though.. :mad:

I really need get a better cooling, water maybe????
Nice job guys, some really nice overclocks.
Utnorris,
At what Vcore did you achieve your 4621 validation, and was that with H2O cooling?
raptord,
Is your CPU maxed out at 4532? By that, I mean did adding more Vcore help get more CPU clock?
It seems I really need better cooling than NH-U12P, but air cooling is my only option here. Anybody has suggestion on a better air cooling solution?
Those temps sound higher than normal. Does EIST work on your board? If so, enabling EIST will bring those temps way down.
By far the best air cooler is the ifx-14 by thermalright. review sites put it ahead of True, the latest scythe, 120 extreme.....it's the best there is today, period. The best part is that it can hold two fans because it is split, so one fan can go in the center with another on the outside in the conventional location. But even with just one fan it beats all other coolers by a wide margin, so on a "same fan, same fan speed" compare, it beats all comers. See the review on mad shrimps and other sites. It;s designed for either 120mm or 140mm fans. Only possible problem is because it's extra wide, it will hang over the side of the mobo on the EVGA and DFI mobos because they put the CPU socket near the board edge. On all other boards it will be fully over the board.
Well EIST is complicated here. I use the V1 1403 BIOS on V2. Most of the time with HT off and Bclck>=200, the multiplier stays at 21x (which is set manually in BIOS). But I do see a flash of 12x multiplier when cpu is idle. But that 12x is very short, like less than .5 second.
That was at 1.39v vcore and 1.41v vtt/uncore. I was able to run PI under 9 seconds even though my ram was only at 1333Mhz, however it was not stable. Without being able to adjust the PCIe frequency I may not be able to get it stable at anything over 200 I am afraid. :(
All you guys hitting 4.4-4.5GHz 8 thread stable, what QPI and other voltages are you using? Just wanna get an idea what the rough average is.
Qpi 1.3v
PLL 1.8
Don't know what other voltages you want listed?
To be clear, you validated a 4621 (220x21) at just 1.39 Vcore. What happened when you raised Vcore to higher values? What Cpu clock did you achieve? I'm asking cause I might want to hop on the Ebay guys batch, but I'm already doing 4662 with my C0 and a superpi 1M run, so I wouldn't want to "upgarde" to a 4621 chip. But that was at 1.488 vcore so your D0 may still be way ahead of me with same vcore.
Justin,
Super job! Where did you get your D0? batch #?
Thanks.

Well, 4600 is the most I can squeeze out of my board. It is stable, but I cannot go past 220BCLK on the Blood Rage regardless of the voltage I put in it. Might be time to rethink the Classified or DFI.
Got this for $ 257.00 shipped ($ 42.00 MS cashback) thanks to Utnorris linking us to this dude on ebay. Batch is 3849A895,which is prolly same for all he sold. Dunno if it's 24/7 stable but 32M stable on H2O is good enough for me:p:.
http://img168.imageshack.us/img168/1593/7582.jpg
Bluto, mine posting or PM'ing me your voltage settings? Since I have the same chip as you I would like to see if I can replicate your results on my Blood Rage.
Thanks.
Bluto, I too got the DO from Pao Revolt-Ebay with the same batch. Please your volts publicly for us. Very curious.
My new result...Happy testing!!! :up::up::up:

Nice work, emertX!!
Nice work, emertX
What voltages did you set for
QPI/Vtt
IOH Voltage
ICH Voltage
Apologize if this is a common question:
If I buy a new motherboard and CPU, get a D0 processor but a motherboard with and older (pre-D0 BIOS), will the motherboard post? Or do I need an older processor to flash the BIOS?
Below is just a combination of what Shamino and Raja said to try,God knows I'd be lost without these forums,lol .I've seen peeps use from 1.1v to 1.50 for both QPI PLL VCore and IOH VCore(which I kept equal all times) and I think for my 32M I used 1.40v, .Dunno if the bioses are similar. Also on the Classified , adjusting the PCIE in bios up to 104-110mhz helped me push bclk beyond 220 .Good luck and thanks again for linking the 920D0. I actually ordered too from Compumusic same day but Google checkout screwed it up and had to cancel that one which was good cause ended up saving about $ 80.00 with MS cashback.

I feel like I did when I went to the California State Lottery show and was 1 of 8 to get a chance to spin "The Big Wheel" where the worst you could do is win $30,000 and the best was like $9 million. Closest I ever got to being a millionaire. I didn't get to spin the wheel. The guy to me left did. I only won $1500. All of of us that didn't get to spin got $1500. I felt very sad when they were making out the check to me.
Got my i7 920 from newegg. It's a SLBCH "C0" :(
Think I will just keep it, maybe get a 950 once it's been out a little while or possibly a 920 D0 guarantee
Don't sweat it... Some of the last C0's clock quite well...
Max overclock for me and on air so far. I live in Oklahoma and it was in the 70's when I did this. Windows opened so no chilled air here. Vcore was 1.456v.

That is not possible...it's a c0!!!
That is possible indeed, I did it on DICE and I had another friend with i920 did the exact same result on SS.
@PytonOrm, your stepping is actually the early batch of the i920, the late batch numbers are 3841-3843.
Let's not forget eva2000, who has been doing it on air since last year ! If you look at the very early c0's, they clocked like the early d0's, the unanswered question is whether most d0's will continue to show the same pattern or will settle in at the 3.6-4.1 range like the majority of c0's ? Time will tell !
Air cooled for now....

Water cooling system is on the way and should be here On Thursday, I'll try to push higher over the weekend.
Who knows I7 920 D0 batch # 3850A796?
I think it's just a bug, I'm not aware of OCZ ever made 127MB DDR3, plus..if I had a 127MB in there then the total memory size would have been 10367MB, not 12288MB (2048MB x6) ;) Another weird thing I noticed is whenever my system woke up from S3, CPUZ would report my memory timing as 4-7-7-24 instead of 7-7-7-24 where I had it set. I have been running Prime95 since 5am this morning to see if there's any memory module failure, and will run the memtest and linx afterward.
True, TRUE120 air 4.4ghz HT enabled 3d benchable with i7 920 3836A756 C0 ages back http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=214241 but need more vcore LOL. Now on water and HT enabled max 32m improved from 4474mhz to 4620mhz so i'm hoping 3d benchable has improved with HT enabled too heh
my d0 and c0 hit the same max on phase 5068mhz
on the other hand this is every voltage at stock, 1.2375 vcore set, with vdroop. Measured 1.177v under load via DMM :up:
http://clubnboc.com/forum/index.php?...ach=2614;image
Those temps are very low bluto, especially with such a high ambient (just 14 degrees delta at load is amazing), I take it your fans were spinning fast :D
here is some stability for now. working on 205x21 with low volts but seems a little harder than 4.2 hton right now. my board is bad so I think that has to do with it. I get new board tomorrow. more to follow.

hello
I have a 920 D0 3847A and a 21*194 I need to vCore 1.25V in bios (and with a Rampage II Extreme that is in full/load ~1.29v) to be stable under OCCT, CPU Stress MT, etc.. ..
with a lower vCore, OCCT, CPU Stress MT or Prime95 which closes on its own or BSOD (reboot)
1.29v to be stable at 21*194 (HT on) you find that good or not?
thank you ;)
