I recently bought a 3005F and it's nowhere near as good as my 3003B. The 05 can only do 4.2 on the same voltage the 03 takes to do 4.5, both HT on.

So far so good.. :)
just booted mine up..
Vid - is 1.16 :)
After a 4 hour burn in at stock pushed to 4160mhz..
Bclk - 160 - Cpu Multi 25 - Turbo On - HT On - Mem Multi 10x
Vcore - 1.28v in bios. 1.264 with Cpu-z , Vtt - 1.25 - Dram 1.62v
Motherboard - Gigabyte UD9
Ram - Patriot Viper II 2000 mhz Cl8 6GB kit. running at 1600mhz cl 8-8-8-24.
So far tested wprime and super Pi 32M and looks to be stable.. still playing around but was impressed with a boot into windows 7 at 4160Mhz with only 1.28V in bios.:)
is this good or do i have a average chip ?
cheers and thanks for reading :)
Just did some more testing :)

have you ever seen "E" batch ?
Wow Nemesis, nice setup! 980 and 3 470's - beautifull clocks and 3dmv score!
I looked at your thread - What temps where you seeing under load?
Edit - Think I found it - -112 to -116 (pot temp or cpu case?)
My new i7 980X box retail FPO 3005F584 is dead after 15 min of using :banana:
wow,this is getting scary.ive got one on the way and these things a dropping like flies.
did you do anything out of the ordinary?like run it with just 1c or 2c with HT off?
any Xtreme OCing when it died?if you could provide some info that would be great.thanks
I put it under LN2, tested cold bug with 6 cores + HT and 6 cores without HT, one run 3DMark 06 and it died, it was a really crappy cpu
Voltage ? vcore/vtt, what mobo ? MSI Big Bang ?
Guys,
I am confused now, What is the difference between a Westmere DP (ie X5670) and a Westmere (Gulftown)single socket i7-980x ?
Both has LGA1366, so can I plug in a X5670 into a Gigabyte X58A-UD7 with a X58 chipset ? I saw a couple of X5650 working with X58 chipset motherboard above.
I thought that the X56xx can only work with Tylersburg chipset aka 5500 chipset .
Can somebody help explain this ?
Thanks Zalbard and Sam Oslo for the info,
So, both the Xeon X5650 and i7-980x are equivalent ? Does somebody know what the difference between the 2 cpu ?
Sam,
What stepping is your X5650 working with GA-UD7 ? Can you use the B0 stepping or ES sample ?
There is some mobo mfg that does not support B0 Xeon ie
Tyan mobo does not support Xeon B0 stepping
His X5650 is a B1 I beleive.
No, X5650 and i7-980X aren't the same or even close.
i7-980x is a unlocked single QPI gulftown
X5650 is a locked dual QPI westmere with I think a 20 multi and 21 on turbo
Tyan dual socket boards shouldn't have issues with B0 Westmere's unless your talking about a single socket Tyan board and in that case Iwould ask why you'd want one?:D
Most GB and Asus boards will run a dual QPI westmere.
The EVGA boards need a simple wire mod to run them.
@wtfdc
A few MBs need hard mod for X56xx, but GA UD7 doesn't need it.
My X5650 is B1 ES. It is a retail stepping, but I've seen B0's on GA UD7 too. If you get one of the latest beta BIOSs it will unlock the Uncore, and the CPU will OC better too.
EDIT:
This CPU belongs home on a SR-2 actually, but It has been running fine on UD7 while I'm waiting for it. You should consider the SR-2 if you haven't ordered the UD7 yet, then you can OC tow CPUs. ;)
Here you go http://forums.tweaktown.com/f69/giga...st-bios-28441/. You can get the GA-X58A-UD7- F7p BIOS.
@sam
What is an SR-2 ?
@movieman
Thanks for the info above, but my friend did try to install a dual socket westmere X5670 B0 on a dual socket Tyan mobo and the mobo would not post (aka no video),, even though he had upgraded to the latest bios. At the Tyan support website, Tyan explicitly said that B0 Westmere will not boot and be supported , only B1 and above will work
