oh you didn't get the memo the hand picked 955's that k|ngp|n used were in fact retail chips we just didn't know itQuote:

To an extent....yesQuote:

Great video Simon and the rest! Very good scores too! :up:
I find this part funny:

Vince talking about scaling under cold and in the background Sampsa is pouring LN2 on to my head :rofl:
And that text on the old video is epic. "AMD does not recommend pouring liquid nitrogen on your head or on your friends head" :D
Rofl Sf!!!!!!!!
hehe I watched your video over and over and over again. That text made me laugh every time :D
probably where u got the idea to talk about scaling under cold just when sampsa pours the ln2. haha
To be honest I am shocked to see "reviews" done with dry ice cooling.Quote:

Who is impressed to see 4.7 ghz with dry ice? I'm not. 6+ ghz and we are talking (no matter what cooling is used). So I don't get the point why AMD send such cpus to people who don't have full access to ln2.
That's no offense but I have seen lots of things from AMD that aren't well done (especially in Germany). And due to the fact that people got pieces and didn't test with ln2 I'm a bit disappointed.
I almost forgot: Great clocks and scores around there. Congratulations to all who are involved in this event. :up:
This will become a reality.......permission has been granted......PM me for details......I will also supply you a gigabyte 790FXT-UD5P.Quote:

A few things to add.Quote:

This is a remarkable coincidence creating the opportunity for lower temperature and thermal conductivity with LN2 and LHe. So, as you state,a high static dissipation processor that can scale will shine most brightly under the ultimate test of LN2 and LHe.
However, I suspected that a well-designed DICE pot could, in the right hands, bring out some of the goodness of a TWKR. As long as you can shed the heat, you have the benefit of higher current potentially driving higher clocks. And as many of you know, chew* has produced outstanding DICE results in the past, and came through with a 5.35GHz 4 core validation and a 5.13 Pi run. That's a hell of a result and shows that a properly tuned DICE rig and a more efficient thermal interface have potential with high static dissipation processors.
We will see more results; these parts have been out in the wild only for days and arrangements for a proper LN2 run require some time. This is the beginning, not the end. We are simply spoiled by chew* and a few others who were ready to fly with these parts like a bat-out-of-hell. I know of a few events coming together that will continue this experiment...
Sincere thanks for everyone's comments. This is a challenging time for our industry (and just about everyone), and we appreciate the encouragement. We don't mind the criticism. Just remember that AMD is not a colossus, it is a group of people mostly in Austin and Markham, with a manufacturing partner mostly in Dresden, working to push the limits for the few while serving millions.
I like it when people notice the details. The team in Austin saw "The Experiment" and "Finland is Cold" and "Proving Grounds" about a hundred times, they are now permanently ingrained in the memory of all who were there.Quote:

I believe, AMD age is coming...PII are great processors and i have a vision, K11 Bulldozer will great CPU.

record 32M AMD? whau!!!!
Amazing stuff, great results and pretty cool video.
Well done AMD and all involved.

I really like that video... kinda catchy... (watched it 4 times in a row)..
Cant wait to throw some dice on my TWKR:-)
I liked the recent disclaimer Simon.Quote:
