It's out

They released it silently and too early. I was ment to show better scores, but here are the mixed salad of this and that.

Air, if anyone is interested anymore:

Yeah.

Damn... :up: :shock:

6.5Ghz Vantage...:up::up::up:

Nice scores, seems 1366 isn´t as dead as the friends of Fail B1Tch always say:D

P.S. How about upgrading your CPUZ?:p:

Nice...

Any comparison between ES and retail cpus ?
Will be ES better ? :D

Awesome 3D run...but SPI 1M at 6.9-7.0 GHz???
:D

the firts, 5.3G, run by Air???

http://www.pt1t.eu/public/X58/990x/9...1024_1_42V.png

This one ROX for sure on air ... best of 3 990x

Well done...esp the single 06 and multi 03. Too bad a chip that fast is being held back by single channel.

i think its the only way for coldbug free run....

@sf3d

how many r3es have you tried? 10+ ?

990x 7016mhz screen :cool:

5011mhz 1.422v air sweet

still have my x58 gear for memory testing so one day hehe

How about LinX\Prime?

990x 7016mhz screen :cool:

5011mhz 1.422v air sweet

This CPU looks friggin awesome! :D

whau, looks better than i7 980x. Who want my i7 980x now?:-D I can with 980x only 4640 MHz wprime 1024 at air :-(...5 Ghz is really awesome

I'll gladly have it if it's free. :rofl:

SF3D what your batch?

And nice work bro!!!

Damn, this one is strong. Hope we'll see a lot of CPU's like this one to forget about 2600k :D
At least, batch says something for those CPUs.

You been busy, Vantage @ 6400 is nuts.

Sorry people I should answer the questions and be polite, but all I can say is that I am getting a bit too busy.
There is always too much to do in my life with family, company, other work and projects etc. :(

I am proud that I have been able to hang in top 5 almost 5 years now. No one else have done it so far in this "competition"
http://sf3d.pp.fi/images/Intel%20Cor...90X/points.png

I am also proud that I was able to bring my own "SF3D OC Inflection point" CPU pot design in to cooling market and it really have exceeded all expectations :up:

There is someting more coming on this spring, but then I may have to pack my stuff and do the things which are most important for a while. I will keep a long summer holiday and keep on benching in Assembly Summer 2011.

Happy Valentine's day to all!

I guess he does not want to kill it with too much Vcore.

6.47ghz vantage cpu. ehem .. :D

Nice! I just received my 980 from the Egg and they are letting me return it for the 990. Good thing I had not opened the box! Thank you for posting!!

I know that situation just too good - that makes your effort even more valuable and be sure there are guys like me that highly appreciate your continues work. beeing TOP5 for 5 years truely is an accomplishment not many can come up with on their "things I achieved during my life list" ;)

I whish you all the best for your private things you'll face in the near future! Hope you will reach your goals and whishes like you always do with your overclocking-targets :) Take care buddy!

First of all SF3D well done for the Scores and the Monster CPU..:D

Second....its really sad hearing you 'll retire.Too many OC legends have retired or stoped benching often..You ,hipro5 ,GPRhellas ,K|ngp|n etc
I wish you the best of luck in anything you 'll try and hope to see you soon rocking with new HW

no need to be sorry... you've lead with authority..i mean you pawned everybody :up:

im sure the top100 guys are still thinking of many ways to catch up to you.:up:

what about dual / triple ?

good work bro!
this scores are good but i know that if i'll pick a 990x retail it will suck.

i want it! any specific reason your only running single CH?

nice benching mate, well done :up:

Nice one!!

Cold bug!


SF, have you noticed any gains in IMC performance on air? Better memory stability/higher uncore/less voltage?

what about the CB/CCB whit 3 mem sticks

Very nice benching Petri :up:

Very interesting chip, was this made at Kista?
That is one extremely high vantage frequency!

Do not read this as a negative, it is not intended to be a pun, dispite you might see it as one.
There is a solution to it
http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/9452/solutiont.png
the why? It is not greatful to be on top, however takes a big effort, and clearly you have some unreleased anger, simple jokes/fresh remarks are taken as extreme offence - and for what reason? NONE.

Hope you had a nice valentines day with the family, without benching, only Kingpin is entitled to bench all days a year :yepp: :shocked: :D

Good benching mate :) I see that our pot is working perfect with that monster chip :)

I have some anger inside me.. wtf :D You propably heard that from your therapist and you just try to use it on other people. Fail!

Simply awesome and just what we overclockers need in this age of max multi BS chips

#0 Nice chip :)

And looks like some good fun comming up with the new 990´s :)

And here we were thinking that skt1386 would be turned out.

:clap: SF1D

Impressive air results.

Small clarification, cause some people have got me wrong:
I am not retiring! That would be just stupid, cause there is no real reason for that.
We will have another baby in april + my company needs a lot of attention during this spring, so I will keep propably short break and will come back after summer.
Also my projects / work with Jimm's PC store will take more time and there is just one thing I can cut. It is OC.

No big deal, but I will not be as active here in the future.

Thanks for all the support!

That silly idea of retiring would be a great loss. Ive learn many things from your posts and would keep that for longer.

Have a healthy kid and gl with your company, btw... u spoke about your pots how can i get a cpu one? ln2 intended.

WOW , nice CPU
6.4GHz run 3DMV

Impressive O_O

7ghz... awesome score :)

Huge numbers, random gem or binned?

Destroy more benches please :up:

Totally random corporate sample.

More benching will come for sure.

Nice work. Now I have this and OC Orange on my wish list for this year.

That's normal bro, time becomes a very valuable asset from one point up. Heck, I wonder you have the time to play along as it is, kids are usually a full time job :)

Anyway, great work on this 990, this CPU kicks ass hard!!!

Good going bro, family first as always :)

a bit OT, where is date of launch i7 990x for reviews? Thx.

its on newegg...

i don't think intel is really pushing for 990x...i could be wrong

since october...

http://www.abload.de/thumb/4600_1600_1m5hh.jpg

New Intel 32nm series like 2600K clocks better under normal conditions....

great results Sampsa Fan 3D

it seems most 990X have bad IMC from what I heard from others and see so far, some great clocks, but require dual or single channel to achieve them!

Seems for now maybe 980 A0 is still king of 32m
