Excellent results, everyone. Especially PiLsY - awesome clocks using water cooling! :up:
I'd like to remind you that it's a LinX club (read the rules, please), and you have to list your motherboard. Takes 5 seconds, anyway. Batch listing is not compulsory, but it helps.
Also, thanks to those of you who is trying to format parts of their posts similar to the OP - it makes editing easier. :yepp:
Welcome back zalbard.
Have a screen using 4gb of memory but cannot find it, will put the chip back in next week and try again using 4gb, and try 4600-4700. I dont really like this chip as much as my others, it doesnt scale well after 4500. It is the coolest running chip I have ever had, it refuses to get warm even in LinX.
i5-655k, Gigabyte P55A-UD6, 2x1gb HyperX, Water, W7 64
Edit, this was on the P55a-UD7-now dead, maybe it will do better on the UD6.

Good afternoon Mr Zalbard,
Please update my Gulftown entry - I wanted to be the first linx stable 32nm over 5ghz, this is with two stage Cascade cooling. :D
Same 980x as previous - 3003B287
The lowest evaporator temp was -98, the lowest IHS temp was -57.
I don't think this is the lowest cpuv for this chip @ 5ghz - I did not spend a lot of time adjusting.
I have uncore and memory set very slow.
I have some happy snaps located at - http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=255686
Also, I didn't want to put the added stress of HT on the chip though I do think the chip would do 5ghz HT - perhaps even at these same settings.
Anyway - so screen shot -

And the whole point of this is that its hard. If you cant stand the heat dont try and join! Ive run all my chips at 90+ to get my place - suffering no ill effects either. Over 90c in linx puts hairs on your chest!

There are some newer low vid 930's out. I picked up one from microcenter this past weekend. Its possible Johnny87au got 4500 stable on low voltage. My watercooling met its match with this chip. This is not linx stable but the chip boots at 4500-4600 at very low voltage. I am working on stability now but the temps are a problem.

I am having a heck of time with temps, I have only tried a full run of LinX at 4.0ghz so far and temps were almost 60c at 1.184v. My other chips are much higher vid and temps were so much easier to control. Im not sure I like the low vid, reminds me of my q9650.
for some reason my LinX keeps stoping after the first test to what seems like ghost errors...
i7 980x @ 4.5ghz (39x115) w/ 1.4125v, qpi - 1.475v (12gb memory), PLL - 1.61v, dram - 1.643v
data link @ 2777mhz and uncore 2425mhz (testing with my G.skills, not Dominators @ 1613mhz 7-8-7-24-72-2N)
every other stability tests i have go through fine but linx just hangs...
it's not temp either cause i'm averaging around 68*c on water..
but every test done (which i did atleast 20 single tests to get an average), it averaged beteen 58 and 62 Gflops w/ hyperthreading enabled... then again i'm not sure how much that counts cause it was 20 single tests with 1 lap each, not 1 test with 20 laps.
EDIT: one thing i think could benifit this program... and just about any other stability program period is if it freakin tells you what the error is or is caused by... LinX will not finish completely stable for me even on 100% stock clocking. i then set it to ignore errors... test completes and says "completed with errors" but doesn't tell you how many errors there are or whether or not they are heat errors or critical voltage errors or anything...
at the same time Vantage tells you your gflops anyway in it's CPU tests. test 1 is in Mflops and test 2 is in Gflops. i can further confirm this by looking at the vantage test as it's going, test 1 i average around 5600-5900 Mflops and test 2 average around 57-58 Gflops.

Playground - nice result but looks like youve got some throttling going on there. Im not familiar with asus x58 boards so cant really advise beyond that but it should be fixable in bios. Maybe totally disable speedstep/eist/c-states? Just a guess. Forum search on the intel forum should sort you out for sure :). Doesn't mean its not stable btw, its likely a current throttle not temps or anything :).
Why u think so? What throttling? :(
As I remember all speed step and c-states disabled.
What am I missing there that makes you think it is throttling? :shrug:Quote:

It's not "throttling " at all. What we are seeing is just about normal for Linx.
Don't forget guys, Linx is flakey at the best of times and Gflop's go up and down like a yoyo especially when you are on the limit.
Agreed with the above. About the cleanest Gflops run I've ever seen is the one linked in my sig. That is with no pagefile and no user activity on the system at the time.
Sorry yeah shouldve given more detail. Its varying too much. Even opening and closing programs wouldnt give a variance like that. Linx doesnt give up thread time easily.
I never get more than a 0.1 variance across the whole run (sometimes the first loop is a bit off, but after that rock solid). All my submissions on this thread have a variance of less than 0.1 from loops 2-20.
Really early 10 loop run - 0.04 max variance 1-10.
Current i7 - 0.02 variance 2-20.
P55+i3 - 0.08 variance 1-20
P55+8gb+550+244bclk - 0.04variance 1-20
P55+8gb+4600mhz i3 550 HT on - 0.01 variance 1-20
Its throttling for sure :). Or you have AV running - lol. 3 Gflops swing is massive. Not criticism, just trying to help ;).
Can anyone explain noob what that throttling is pls:)
what about everest running in background?
Welcome to the club Olly, nice chip.:up:Quote:

Normally I will chat on msn or surf the web though while it runs so I dont stay bored for an hour or so. I have had some pretty ugly runs with gflops not consisent, when that happens I normally start it over.
Try a short run with the same settings without running Everest and CoreTemp at the same time, just run one of the temp programs, dont web surf or open anything, just lest it run and see if gflops are better, no need to do 20 passes just do a quick run of say 5-10. On my R3E board if I have Everest and RealTemp open at the same time RealTemp show my CPU multi go back and forth between 20 and 21 like im losing turbo mode.Quote:

Yeah nice run there playground :up:. Anyone noticed this seems to affect Classys and P6T's more than other brands? Mybe just co-incidence.
When im running linx for here I usually use diagnostic mode. It gives much steadier results and eliminates software as the cause of instability. The only app I leave running is realtemp.
Start > msconfig > diagnostic mode and reboot.
Start > msconfig > normal startup to change back.
Thx;-) testing 4.6 now.
Nice hint m8t.
No problem, hope it helps :).
92-95c peak temp is where things go unstable in linx with every i7 ive built (lost count now - lol). That equates to about 85-88c prime95 peak temp and about 75c gaming. So about what you get on the retail cooler @ stock in a poorly ventilated case. People forget what circumstances these chips are designed to operate under for 3 years+ and start to freak when they see over 80c. It'll tell you when its not happy by erroring in linx.
If your cooling can take it try messing round with matching vcore and vtt +-10mv. That gets you some extra stability at the real edge but REALLY pumps out the heat. Each chip is slightly different, but all ive used like vtt +-10mv of vcore right when you're right at the edge to gain a little linx stability. Those runs that failed at loop 4 or 5 tend to complete ;). Note that its matching vtt to vcore, not the other way round. This wont let you reduce vcore, but rather gain a couple of mhz stability at your current vcore setting. Dropping uncore and mem multi counteracts the temp increase a bit, but your gflops score will drop massively. Were just going for stable linx here, not efficiency so give that a go :). 2t command rate got me an extra 20mhz or so, cpu pll down to 1.6 got me another 20mhz. Im right at the limit for heat though so anything i do to reduce temps gives me a benefit. Hoping for more benching in the workshop in winter ;).
I've got everything cooled in one loop. Cpu, nb and gpu so I think my temps at 1.5v Are really good.
Trying to cool down room at bit;-)
PiLsY: any links to these small nuances/hints/knowhow of i7 o/c in some guides/FAQs?
That's experience m8t ;-)
Doh its 16th loop at 4600 but don't have time to wait for the end :-o :(
taxi :'(
lol I hate when that happens. Still, 16 loops says its likely a banker, so all good.
Like you im running a single loop - 2 x gtx260, mb and cpu on a PA360 and a PA240 (10x1800rpm yates). I maxed out heat wise at 4.675ghz 1.52v. 4.7 would continually fail on about loop 17 or 18 when core0 hit 96c. Dumped the gfx cards out my loop and went mad on fans for a weekend and made it to 4811.6, but with low uncore and memory speed. Your temps look bang on for a well setup single loop, I reckon youve got the heat capacity for a bit more ;). Looks like your cpu isnt quite as good as mine but I'm putting my money on about 4.65 totally maxed out. Id be happy with that for a 920!! My best "only" did 4420mhz (c0 stepping - best d0 out of 5 only did 4.38ghz :lol:). Had to get a 950 to get over 4.5ghz, but lucked out and got a golden one.
Nice run and great job on the memory. :up:Quote:

Nice low vcore there - if you can control the temps it should be good for 4.7+ @ 1.55vcore... Looks like a really hot one you got there tho. Low vid?
Thanks, has a vid of 1.1875, kind of low compared to my other bloomfields and hard to keep cool with ht.Quote:

UPDATE!
i'm proud to anounce i ACTUALLY got successful passes in LinX! though i do not have a screenshot to post just yet, i just didn't have the time to get all 20 passes, but it's done 7 passes so far and i will post a screenshot when i can get 20 passes through, but here's the settings. i DO need to reseat my water block though, i have 2 cores that are getting MUCH hotter than the rest by around 10*c so i think my thermal paste is off a bit or i have too much preasure on one side of the block. i found that LinX wasn't passing because my QPI was too high and was causing errors.

Thats current feedback throttling dude - happens by default when the cpu draws over 100 amps. There shoul dbe an option in bios to disable that. On my Bloodrage its called "Enable Current Feedback Over-ride", have a poke round in bios and see what you can find. Asus have been plagued by these multi throttling issues since the first P6 board came out. Took them ages to fix the P6T-Deluxe throttling issues.Quote:

Thanks Mr Pilsy - I think I could do 5.3 if I could get my ambient temps down - might not happen until next Fall.
:up: Nice one Steve.
Must admit, i can't understand those Gflops either.
Sometimes one really has to question just how good or bad Linx really is as stability prog, because it is so inconsistant.
I was having a similar problem with my Q9650 the other day I was getting like 37 gflops and my temps were much lower. I have a feeling a thread crapped out w/o being detected by linx/IBT because it finished both tests (20 passes) but failed prime blend instantly:shrug:Quote:
