Very nice Larry :up:

You got a killer chip there.

CN :)

still testing... i just got it... still fresh... :)

Very nice.
What stepping?


Big Lar :
great cpu you have there.:up:

thx :) Q748A133

geeze 1.20v for 4ghz....i need 1.35v :(

Yeah tell me about it :(
My e8400 needs 1.33v for 4ghz stable... some e8200 cpu's can do 4ghz @ 1.20v... if I even TRY it I get a BSOD lol... it's just not fair :p:

wich vcore at 4.5 ghz?

Yeah...only 5 mins but to even be booting at that voltage? That's nuts. Still waiting to see the first 4.3Ghz with < 1.3v, I think that guy has a great chance then.

Thanks! @ dark22, Very nice chip there :)

Larry

Hmm I wonder if an 8.5 multiplier would need less juice compared to 9x at the same speed?

and some cache&mem testing:
Attachment 73172

Question; dark22 why does Orthos say 4499 and core temp/cpu-z says 4000? A Glitch maybe?

Larry

Yeah thats a bug in windows , and other programs, they are reading only the defualt Multiplier made by the cpu nomather what plier u use, it reads in like that.

As moving to newer weeks i thing this Wolfies become better regardless E8x00

Sorry for the Long winded reply :)

Thanks for details Larry :-)

did you try this chip on air ?

I can't wait try my xeon too and hope it rocks

just sold my golden conroe lol and running a celeron E1200

COD 4 has some sort of lagging now :D

for 4.5 Ghz it needs 1.41 and for 4.3 ghz 1.375 to be stable but i want to leave it for 2-3 days at 1.2 volt so it will learn to operate in low voltages...

@ Mykou Sorry, I have not used a Heatsink for a cpu in years :( I hope your new chip runs fantastic!

@ dark22 Your chip is very similar to mine, I have run Blend at 4275 at 1.34v, but cannot run 4275 and 10k fft's in place for long enough yet, so I havn't tried higher yet. Great chip you have there :D

Very nice indeed. :)

Wasnt sure where to post Xeon results, but here goes.

can you post a screen for 4.5 with 1.41 vcore plz maybe with cpu z and 30 min orthos...like this(4.3 ghz and 1.376 v):

http://www.pctunerup.com/up/results/...518_spi33m.jpg

for 4.5 im still testing but i am pretty sure that it need more than 1.41....

Jeez:D :up:

DAMN dark22 thats gotta be the best chip yet !!

Here is some new core temperature monitoring software from unclewebb called Real Temp. It reads the DTS data exactly the same as SpeedFan and CoreTemp do. Its still in beta but hopefully will be released soon. It appears that the new speedfan 4.34 beta 40 uses a Tj.Max of 95c as does Real Temp. Real Temp has other features but I will leave that for the author to explain.:D

@Ron 61: where to get RealTemp app?

Sorry, I cannot distribute as I am just testing it for unclewebb. unclewebb says it will be released soon.:up:

Edit: Here is original post http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...postcount=1808

i was wrong... it doesnt need 1.375... it needs 1.36 for 4320Mhz...
the problem is that on that frequency my temps are very high!!!
79C i thing is to much for that cpu...
i also tried at 4.5Ghz with 1.4 but is not stable, i thing because of temps...
i saw 90C and i dont feel comfotable with that...
until now i havent change GTL settings but i think that i will need to
and also better cooling because here in Creta the weather is hot...

All 99% of people do around here is run SuperPI and various other benchmarks, complain about temperature software, throttling processors, idle temperatures being out to lunch as well as b-i-t-c-h about the sticking DTS sensors in the new Intel 45nm chips. :D

I combined it all, somehow, along with my experiences with pointing an IR thermometer at my bare E6400 and E8400 CPUs and have created a new program called Real Temp. The swiss army knife of temp software.

I finished the data logging feature tonight and after I write a pile of documentation for it, it will be ready for download tomorrow.
