GTL's need some work as I was using an old profile from one of the X5260's.

I saw it already, not bad, 5.5 TPP! Yay! :D
Picked this up for a little fun. Got some Ballstix (hopefully D9) on the way also. Just need to dig out my TT Big Typhoon or Zalman Cu-7000 and get to modding.

Nice, I didn't find that mb on hwbot so there are some easy points!
I hope the board clocks well! :up:Quote:

Out of school for the summer finally, which means one thing...
Back to overclocking :)
In a few days I look to fill up my dewar again and play some Phenom II 565 BE for 2x and 3x core scores...though I had trouble unlocking it lately which might be a bad sign.
Welcome back, Sam! I hope you had a good first year of college! :up:
Same cpu as last time (#2) just simple GTL tweaking.
http://i.imgur.com/K3Mdn09.png
4640 froze fml lol
On another note I picked up a 4360 and waiting for an Impact + BBSE cold = easy XTU x2 WR incoming :D
No point in trying with the 4340 as as the refresh chip has a x37 multi.
Looking good, George! :up:
I apologize for expecting the worst of the X5270! :D
Order some more LN2, Team Cup is coming! ^^
Thanks Dan, I am glad you were wrong :DQuote:

Well done! :up:
No CB sounds great too!
Everything is frozen!!!

News at HWBot about your new record: Haswell Refreshed and L0ud_sil3nc3 Sets New 2xCPU XTU Record with Core i3 4360 at 4GHz
Lmao that gif is awesome. Great job loud!
Almost got the mooseman lol

Skipped 56X all together :)

Time for XS to eat up more 3x core globals...all current records done on Crosshair V Formula which is crap efficiency across the board.
wPrime tweaks? Every time I try XP it runs like s***...the threads lag too much behind each other.
Benched my new lappy for TPP tonight.
over 3000!

Nice!
Dewar fill tomorrow...first time in a long time :D
Air testing with a couple chips tonight...
I'm glad you like it! :DQuote:

Didn't get LN2 today, had some errands to run. Tomorrow!
I'll put up air results later when I get home as placeholders. :D
Dan, you're too impatient. I haven't done this for almost 12 months, cut me some slack! I need to optimize OS and efficiency on air first.
...so, GB Z97 SOC Force any good? Need to step up my Intel game and get all these low end GPUs benched. Probably looking at purchasing a Tek9 Slim to do that business.

Wow, with all those records, the board must be crap! I'd say Charles just has magical ES and anti BCLK OC powers.
There isn't really that much magic for WPrime that I know of. Maybe the Pros on our team know more! ;)
Good luck for getting a better price, though $0.75/L sounds fine to me... :D
Just curious, where can you get LN2 for $0.75/L?Quote:

In case anyone was wondering why I hadn't posted any results, I can't get the CPU to unlock on the UD5. Going through different BIOSes tonight to try to find one that works. I have unlocked the CPU on ASUS boards without any issue but I noticed it wasn't working lately on MSI/Gigabyte 900 series
EDIT:
Change of plans, this board won't unlock this CPU period. :D
...nor will my MSI or Biostar 970 series boards.
Will you go back to ASUS now?
Or try an entirely different setup?
Going back to ASUS requires pulling a water cooling loop and 3 GPUs from a gaming build, though that board would be helpful. It will be a couple days.Quote:

If the CPU doesn't unlock on that board, I'll be stumped. I believe this CPU unlocked to 3 core on both my M4A89TD Pro and Crosshair V Formula but won't on any other boards I have here in the house.
Well I couldn't resist any longer and bought 2 Intel Pentium Dual-Core E6500K cpus. I think these chips with a high multi will be a great match for my UT x48 mb. If not then I have a nice piece to add to my growing pile. The guy has 8 more....http://www.ebay.com/itm/151243434425 Seems like a good deal to me and soon I will add an unlocked Pentium G3258 to my collection.
Any good news? Taking a board out of a gaming rig doesn't sound very pleasant indeed. :(Quote:

Waiting on an order of Gelid GC-Extreme, will then prep up Crosshair V Formula and FX-8120 for AMD CPU OC %.
Will probably wait for Devil's Canyon before touching Intel.
I'm looking forward to seeing your scores! Maybe 8.1GHz? :up:
I just pre-ordered an 4790K along with a GA-Z97X-SOC Force. :yepp: :yepp: :D
Good choice! :up:
I hope you have some money left for the Pentium Processor Anniversary Edition chip. ;)

New stepping to try
http://i1281.photobucket.com/albums/...psf60d848c.jpg
Good luck with the new chip! :up:
Meh. So far not any better than my current chip
looks tasty!
and here I am wasting time with 2x 2630v2...
Well, 8+ for sure, already did 8007 with that CPU on Gigabyte 990FX...Quote:

Where are your LN2 scores already? You need almost 25% more ;)Quote:

Even if FX-8120 manages to beat Andre's record, let's say it does 8800, it's still ~184% overclock.
This is equal to Geode NX-1500 running at 2840, which it will definitely do with cold :p
I didn't say I could beat you, I said your air score sucks. :)Quote:
Originally Posted by I.nfraR.ed

Yes, this sample is not very good, but someone with good enough cpu will do 200+ %. No FX can touch that :/
That's what I wanted to say, not that I will win the stage (most probably not). Speaking generally, not 'bout my score.
Not quite true if you find a gem. I think an FX CPU can touch 300% no 9.3 GHz required. ;)Quote:
Originally Posted by I.nfraR.ed

Lowest clocked FX is 8100, which would need 8400MHz valid with 454MHz HTRef/FSB clock. I don't see that happening :p
Next in line is FX-8120 with base frequency of 3.1, which means 9.3GHz.
The best possible variant is Phenom II TWKR, but I don't think it's allowed.
The 8100 is unlocked.Quote:
Originally Posted by I.nfraR.ed
Yeah, all FX should be unlocked, my bad.
Then it is easier, but still very hard in my book. How many would you bin to find a 8.4+ gem?
Every 1 MHz on a Geode is another 1% on top of the score. Not sayin' it is impossible, but it would require extreme luck or a lot of money.
I'd say - better bin Geodes.
Maybe there are other possibilities which I don't see atm.
Just sayin', I still want to see how far you can go with your FX-8120, it's about time you start benching again :)
PS: And sorry about hijacking this thread.
I have a watch on 6 of them. 8400 is a stretch, 8000 maybe not.Quote:

Still don't know how you got async mem to work on DFI NFII ;)
I almost "killed my BIOS", took 20 minutes for it to post.
EDIT:
BIOS corruption finally put a halt to me...4 LEDs of death. :(
The stupid thing is that it happened using CMOS Reloaded (loading my saved OC profiles) and not from asynchronous memory divider.
Moving on, pulling out the Crosshair V Formula >: )
LOL, I thought you had two chips to bin, but now I get it, you're running a dual-socket setup. :DQuote:

Welcome to the team CL3P20! I see you have been benching that new Pentium, looks good.
Ha just looked and your going for MOA, nice I hope you do well!
And so it begins, I just "glued" my first hs to an old gpu! The card is an ati x600 256mb pci-e. Next I have a nb cooler in mind....

What are you going to do if you want to put a LN2 pot on the card? :p: :DQuote:

Is this the first G3258 you've tried?
How strong is the IMC on this one or on the G3258 in general if you've already tested more chips?
Who's great with a soldering iron? Who has a high end AGP card? Who has some great BH-5 or TCCD?
No there's not a trend to be asking these questions, just wondering! ;) :cool:
EDIT: Also interested in good Micron GTR/S (CSX).
#2 of 7, all garbage and I have not tested the IMC, as I found a very nice IMC on one of my 4790K's.Quote:

This Monday you boys are going to sh1t yourselves over new (to me) GPU. :D
I got a p55 up4 and i7 875k if someone wants to trade. I dont vintage overclock much.
Oh I do want.....but I need to stop....for now.Quote:

I'll check ebay.com for you as well! :D
Same potato cpu I have tested with 3 different dimms (2x MFR, 1xCFR) and all max at the same. Wanted to make sure it wasn't voltages / settings hence 3 different dimms, but regardless, good old post code 23. Time to try another cpu.

Oh its so nice and I think it was a good deal<$200! This is my 1st ever Asus product, hope it was a good choice. hahaha
Is this the same CPU that did 1928 MHz on air? Do you still have your old 4770K with the good IMC that did 2082 MHz?Quote:

Oh dang I may have ruined my SOC Force!!! Such a ham fist....I bent a pin slightly but it was easily fixed and worked fine after, ran max oc and 3d benches. Then I messed up and hit the socket again with the cpu and now when I power down all the fans run still, even the gpu fans. I have to turn the psu off to fully power down. Just reloaded both bios chips and still no change. Oh well I should still be able to bench with it idk. I also burned my thumb with dry ice.
If you can't fix it yourself, you can try contacting Gigabyte support and ask them if they can exchange the socket for a new one for a small fee, I think they can do it. Maybe someone from the U.S. already knows more about it! :)
When I used LN2 for the first time, I burned my thumb on a screw of my pot's mounting kit, so I can relate to that... ;)
