retail QX9650 first run -> 4400mhz on Intel cooler box
-
Nice. Are you going to be doing any subzero tests?
-
Awesome. Can you try a test? Can you configure CoreTemp to "Delta to Tjunction" and prime it up till it throttles. It'd be great to know for sure if 0C DTS = throttle point for these CPUs :)
-
Nice results. The CPU-Z vcore readings are accurate, yeah? Also like the blue LED on stock fan :)

Appears similar to one of the zalman coolers doesn't it?
-
impressive :shocked:
:up:
-
:D Congrats on dat killer chip and show us more number, bro!! :up:
-
I need bios for Striker, i want this frequencies too :eek: ... i have Yorkfield two weeks in box because no support in bios ...:mad:
-
Amigo estás sempre na crista da onda tu !!! ;)
The 45nm's cpu's are going to be another pain in the *ss for AMD !! LOL :D
I wan't to see also what the Q9450's will do.
-
Hey that stockcooler are like the 7700 from Zalman right??

change the mobo but try the yorkfield ,man try the yorkfield ..i can wait!
-
:up: Very nice result out of the box with the stock cooler - I'm waiting so badly for this chip to come in stock in Europe......
Hope I'll get one doing 4.4 + on water..................;)
-
Nice chip any word on a cold bug?
-
Man that is just crazy!!!

any chance of showing us how high an FSB you can do with a low multi.
oh and good going mate. ;)

Nice to see the retail ones are as strong as some of the ES's we saw. I have a OEM version coming tomorrow. I hope it does as well. (fingers crossed) Over the weekend I plan on puting it on a Vapochill LS.

man, this is a sick ass cpu...........cant wait intill january.....my 3.85ghz quad should do good intill i get this cpu next year.

sweeet....too bad it costs almost $1400 USD :O

very impressive.. thanks for sharing
was this chip cherry picked or retail?

@ Aldy402, I understand your question... but he says it a retial... I think he doens't say that for nothing...
Nice info PcCI2iminal, keep it up! and keep it cool :toast:

Nice results, thanks for sharing
Awaiting TRUE-120 and subzero results!
That stock cooler actually looks decent, I wonder if the lower end models coming in Jan2008 sport the same cooler?

I love that chip:clap:
Congratz for sub 10 with Intel stock cooler.:up:
Can't wait for mine next week:)

For a long haul computer getting an extreme edition might be a worthwille investment, if you are willing to bet Nehalem won't overclock as good as penryn.
The reasoning being that this baby at 4.4 will probably be faster than a regular Nehalem... (Nehalem might be fast but hey not that fast)

very nice cpu...i look forward to buying one after xmas ;)

What? Is there a difference in quality/overclockability if you get the OEM Yorkfield versus the retail boxed version?

You get no heatsink.. and I think the warranty is not the same.

If Yorkfield does 4.4GHz on a beefed up stock, imagine what it'll do on the silent towers! I'm glad I grabbed an E2140 to hold me over for a Q9450!

And what makes you says that? Nehalem even @ stock should be at least 2x as fast. From what i know it will have 3x bandwide then curent cpu's. It's to early to know what Nehalem will bring. But i think you will be suprised how fast it is. I'm a bit sceptical how MMC will do at sub zero.
Anyway retail @ 4.4G is plain sick for now, that's 4 cores fo you over 4G's on air 24/7:up:

If I am not mistaken, the Nehalem CPU will be 32nm Die. So that right there will give it a lower TDP. So I think not only will it be able to clock as high but probably with less power as well.
-
Whould be great to see maximum clock which passes several hours of Prime95 Small FFTs test.
-
if you get 30 minutes that would be monumental...it's a waste of energy to put a processor through hours upon hours to prove absolutely nothing because a stable system does not have to be P95 stable.

For me "stable" means "can pass anything i throw at it".
This includes as the minimum 6+ hrs of Prime95 Small FFTs, plus several hrs of Linpack 64bit.
For just a gaming rig, of course, this criteria can be relaxed.
-
well..that is your arbitrary definition...your stable definition is your definiton...you need to go buy the chip and see if you can get it to do what "you" want it to do....power to you!:up: but, don't expect others to fulfill your definition.

great cpu or even greater cooler:D
how loud is the cooler?

Cooler is definitely not great, just better than usual BOXed Intel cooler.

It`s not a cherry picked ,I just asked to my supplier for the newest one and he sent a week 39 :D.
and for 4400mhz I did not my best so all the credits goes to Intel and Asus.

no, you miss the point...the price would be set from the very start if it was a devalue problem...it was $1200 for an OEM until they realized that there is a huge demand; so it goes up via the supply-demand rule for any product...just like a barrel of oil is in high demand, or in jeopardy of being disrupted, so we have $100 per barrel.

with the same clock/ram (quad G0 @ 3.8ghz vs Yorkfield @ 3800mhz) the load time seems to be a bit faster on yorkfield.

i agree with you...a review was done at XS on the IFX-14..i think the summary was one degree of "C" less efficient than the TRUE 120.

Isn't 1.656V a ridiculous Vcore? Especially for air cooling?
And to make things worse, the 45nms have lower voltage maximums than the 65nm.

From your words to Gods and Intels ears, my friend.
I just made that assumption based on my thinking of what "normal" advances in speed between architectures could be.
But judging how good theese babies are right now I wouldnt be surprised if they decide to pump up stock speeds in 2nd release of 45nm quads.

Some website reports a power consumption of about 65W at 3GHz and 1.2V (full), so 65*1,656*1,656/(1,2*1,2)*4,5/3 give 185W, a little bit high but not sure it's so much for air :shrug:

PC the vcc max for yorkfields from the intel white paper is 1.45v.
1.65v is far far too much. in proportion its like running 1.7 - 1.8v through a 65nm. yes the temperatures are nice, thats because of the hi-k and low thermal dissipation, but you are completely destroying that cpu.
now that we have assessed your insanity, can you please show us the max overclock that is at least 1h prime stable. that would be awesome, cheers mate :clap:
-
Cool, now we need to know if we can push it to 4Ghz with the lowest VCORE possible.
Can you try that and tell us?
-
is it safe to run it at those high voltages even under low temperatures for 24/7 usage ?
-
Trust me, PC knows what he is doing!...don't ever doubt that fact!
-
So,to confirm what you achieved in your first run.
Did you put the FSB @ 440 and you upped the multiplier from 9 to 10?
Also excuse my ignorance, but what does genereate more heat, cranking up the multipier or the FSB.
I got an QX9650 coming tomorrow, so I'm looking for the perfect combination between multi X FSB and Vcore. What do you think is the sweetspot?
-
Max. prime Prime95 @ Ultra-120 extreme plz :)
FSB tops out at 500Mhz? I want one Q9550 so bad :wth: But it's only x8,5 :(
Abraço, esperando seu post no forumpcs ;)

Very nice results.
What for of FSB can you boot at from bios?? not using FSB in windows for MAX FSB speeds??

I just cant believe those air number :drool:

for higher FSB ->sometimes you will need more voltage on chipset or cpu settings = more heat :)

of course PC, I am just stating that in general for the public to know. some people might think that its ok to run 1.65v through 45nm because the temps are so much lower than 65nm. so im just warning people.
just give me a hour my friend :)
take all the time you want :up:
4ghz -> 1.4v(prime) or 1.35v -> boot
Interesting. I am trying to find out what kind of voltage levels it takes to be prime stable at 4G, 4.2G, and 4.4G. Those are going to be the numbers that I will end up with since I am going to use 400 FSB. I am hoping support for half multi comes soon because 4G to 4.4G is a big jump and I have a feeling that 4.4G prime stable wont happen, at least not with a voltage that I would run 24/7.
PS: 1.7v on air, gotta love it lol :D

I lapped mine last night just enough to see if it was concave or convex. It was actually pretty flat so I didn't shave the markings off of it alltogether, just gave it a little shine. ;)

What would you suggest on phase. I had been running my QX6850 at 1.61v. What would the equivilent on the 9650 be, 1.51-1.5v?

Looks really good ;).
Keep pushing it.

as I had promised
http://img57.imageshack.us/img57/570...4184mhzkw4.jpg
room temp -> 19c
xgman
for 24/7 I don`t think you need to push to that level
-
wow almost 4.8 on air with 4 cores. I know Vcore is high:D but this is much more then i expected these cpu's to do on air. The fact that it can handle this voltage and only be 40C on AIR is impressive.
Good job PC:up: . Cant wait to get a 8500. DC should clock even higher.

Thank you very much! But is that as high as it goes with 1.48v ?
Sigh, I guess we have to be content with 4.2G, thats not bad after all. I love those temps, but more voltage would not be healthy for this cpu. Maybe try 1.5v and see how high you can go. I would never run more than that.
-
Very nice results criminal :toast:
Is this going to be your new 24/7 setup or are you just doing this for a review/testing?
Also is MSRP for this cpu supposed to be $999? I assum nwegg and the other retailers are just raising the price due to low amount in stock. When is price expected to normalize?

Wowwwwwwww:eek:
Another York @ 4.7Ghz with aircooling:eek: :clap:
Fantastic result!!!
Can you share your GTL voltages setup for the 4.7ghz?:D :p:

the $999 per cpu was for lots of 1000 processors...i think the starting price was 1199 for a retail OEM...i've seen lower prices at a few retailers who do not have them as of yet.

I've just installed my QX9650
OMFG this DOESN'T look good...
This is with a P5E3 Deluxe with your suggested settings running a QX9650.
For those who wonder...
Note: This is with a Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme lapped and AS5 on top.
10 x 400 @ 1.4 VCORE
4GB DDR 3 running @ 1600 Mhz 9-9-9-24
http://www.3doracle.com/results.jpg
With stock settings: 9x333 @AUTO VCORE
Memory running @ 1333Mhz 9-9-9-24
http://www.3doracle.com/results2.jpg
Please tell me this is not happening, I've got a great cooled P182 with 3 fans, 1 intake and 2 exhausts.
Is this normal? I saw you getting up to 74C.
What temps are dangerous in this CPU?
Please help. I'm smoking cigarettes and eating my fingernails.
-
those are pretty bad temps... time for some watercooling maybe?
-
No time or money extra for watercooling, but hey, didn't PcCI2Mininal, just posted temps with the QX9650 @ 4.1 Ghz, showing the Delta to T-Junction?
Look below...

Please let me know if this is right... I just feel too tired to take out the case again, take out the TRUE 120, clean/clean, reaply and re-install.
What's your oppinion pcCI2Minimal?
-
Hey JAG87 I've noticed that you runned 41xxGhz with a multiplier of 11 and 380 FSB
Did that relaxed your temps? Because you got around 55C.
Does it affect performance to run a higher multiplier and less FSB?
Also I'm learning here. From my results above what you guys think AM I in danger?
reading:
"Measuring CPU Dual Core Temps"
Arthur Liberman - 10/27/06
page 2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are two more important values that have to be taken into account:
"TCaseMax: This value stands for the maximum temperature at the dead-center at the top of the processor core or the IHS which will ensure 100% stability and safety. "
"Tjunction (or TjunctionMax): This value stands for the maximum temperature at the junction between the processor die and the PCB it sits on, this is usually much higher than the TCaseMax value.
It is important not to confuse these two when reading the DTS temperature. If the DTS registers a temperature higher than TCaseMax, that doesn't mean the CPU is in danger, as the TCaseMax stands for the highest external temperature the CPU can take. On the other hand, when your chip reaches the Tjunction then you should start to worry, as that is a temperature you wouldn't want your CPU to cross.
It is possible to detect the Tjunction temperature in Intel CPUs and it is possible to detect the TCaseMax of Rev E AMD chips via software; unfortunately, I've yet to find the info on how to get TCaseMax for Intel chips or Tjunction for AMD (which is the most important).
What is surprising about the DTS is the ease of use. Traditional Super I/O chips demand you to program for each separate I/O chip, as they have different addresses and different formulas for calculation.
With DTS, all you need to do is read an MSR (in case of Intel) or an NB register (in case of AMD), run it through a simple formula and viola! You have your temperature! Here are the formulas:"
