Lastviking, here is that 230fsb bench I promised. Are you sitting down? Look at that efficency! 97% LOL
I ran it at 230 x 10.5, your system will do that I'm sure. Later!
Grrr
K here goes mine with bh5(i will make one new also @ same cpu mhz for you later and with NF2 drivers + GFX drivers installed)Quote:

To bad i take you with CPC:disabled :D . But think i will lose when i install NF2 drivers and Gfx driver...:stick:
Hmm, let me see.... you are at 2530mhz, no? I was at 2420mhz, so I beat you!!!! LOL
Post a bench at 2420mhz and show me a CPU-Z, OK??
Thanks
Yes, this has been said a million times, but I don't understand why every manufacturer would insist on using them given it does add cost, if there were truly no benefit or worse yet, it harmed performance.Quote:

I have no love of heatspreaders.. not one I have ever laid my hands on has every worked worth its make... and this goes for all manufacturers ;)
Ryan, what is your opinion about this?
I think heatspreaders make a small dif in performance
I also think that our vendors would have a cow if we removed them to reduce cost.
For the worse, in my experience.Quote:

Your joking, right? Surely your vendors would be overjoyed at selling high performance Ram for less?Quote:

sorry no joke cactus , we tried to market high performance product with no heatspreader before , it was an utter failure , as remember our average buyer is not as informed as the wise people here at extreme
Exactly, if you put up the same stick of ram for sale with, and without a heatspreader, right next to each other, the one WITH will sell every time.
Does this mean XS members can get special dispensation to remove their heatspreaders without voiding their warranty?:D ;)Quote:

Well its one thing to slap a bar of metal onto the chips, and its another thing to actually design one with FINS that would actually help disappate heat and not just cause heatsoak.
There is potential in the idea but I haven't seen anyone come up with a decent solution yet, other than Kingmax using BGA and just doing away with the spreader alltogether.
that would really increase cost as fined heatsinks cant be stamped , the have to be extruded, bonded or skived , which makes them as expensive to make as a CPU sink
It's another thing to slap a metal bar across the chips and put an insulator between the chips and the metal bar though. If heat Jackets are to be used effectively then a more efficient design is needed.Quote:

Isn't that what I said? ;)Quote:

Not exactly, no. I expanded on what you said.Quote:

ok guys ,
I will work on a more effective solution and try to get it into production
Yeah, I want a phase change head on every chip!:wierd:Quote:

I find pushing some cool air over the dimms with heatspreaders helps a ton, much better than having bare chips.
$299 at the egg. VERY tempting.
What timings are you using on the new PC-3700EB stuff compared to the 3200EB? Im trying to future proof as possible since this ram will be going into a new 939 mobo with PCI-e.
I find leaving my computer off is the most effective cooling solution! ;-)
Off? What's that?Quote:

phase change on each chip eh
Workin on it...
:-D
