QX9650 & IP35 Pro, Sub Zero

Hey guys,

Just popping in to give you the heads up on my nice new QX9650.

Dont really feel like testing it on Air, so after I booted my new chip to make sure it worked, off came the Ultra 120 eXtreme and on went my CPU Pot.

This will be in 3 parts:
1st: QX9650 on Dry Ice and 8800 Ultra on Air.
2nd: QX9650 on LN2 and 8800 Ultra on Air.
3rd Both QX9650 & 8800 Ultra on LN2.

Intel Extreme Quad Core QX9650
OEM L739A664
Abit IP35 Pro, Beta bios 16,03
Crucial Ballistix Tracer PC8500 2GB
Gigabyte 8800 Ultra
Zippy G1 600W
LittleDevil ALU/CU CPU Pot

QX9650 on Dry Ice and 8800 Ultra on Air.

Before I give you the numbers on DICE. You will all be happy to know I had no cold bug at all, for the full range of dry ice temps.

QX9650 on LN2 and 8800 Ultra on Air.

There has been alot said about where these new chips cold bug, well I'm happy to say at low clock speeds I bug out at -173!! Yes you read that right. Though, at high clock speeds it gets very, very unstable at -144.
-125 to -135 seems to be where the chip works the best.

QX9650 & 8800 Ultra on LN2.

First off, I must say this is a hell of alot of fun!
Even better, I dont think I killed anything (all ways good)

If the scores are good, bad or or just plain wrong. I could care less.... Did I tell you it was fun ?

With my unmodded card (soon to be modded) the max I could run the card was 837 on the core, 864 was a no go, a bit more vcore will help that though.

Anyhow, here are the scores for my first time every going sub zero on a GPU.

But before I show you, did I point out this is great fun ?

3D06 -- 19260 -- 5508Mhz, 810/1213 all on LN2

3D05 -- 28684 -- 5532Mhz, 837/1213 all on LN2

nice scores :toast:

nice results there my new zealand friend :D

Fantastic results!:clap:
The Ultra is v-modded?

@Deanzo: Nice scores man ! 864MHz core will be a piece of cake with a V-modded Ultra ;)

these new chips sure are wonders

the TEK 9 all iced up is fatt ass cool :D

That CPU is very great.

Nice benching mate!

Awesome work Dean, just you wait till you get that card modded. It'll fly on the Tek-9 3.0. Keep 1000 in your crosshairs. :D

Yorkies are in desperate need of liquid nitrogen :D ... They handle increased voltage, therefore as long as the temperatures are subzero they can do miracles ... :D Wish I had one to play too ... :(
Maybe a Wolfdale E8500 uh ? ... hmmm ...

Great work mate :D

Fun is what it is about ;)

Great results Deanzo! :Toast:

That looks like a real gem 9650, no coldbug and fast :D

nice clocks and scores Deanzo, new zealand FTW!

Fun times indeed :)
Your vCore seems quite low for using LN2

Thanks for the kind words guys

Just taking it easy to start with, though most people I know don't think thats taking it easy :)

Really good work and clocks, if you take in mind the low vcore you give the good chip you have :D.

Keep pushing it.

hey your new score at LN2 is great man ;)
5824mhz ain't slow :D

Nicely done if you think that 3870 crossfire gets 20k in 3DMark06 :) .

Nice mate is all about fun :)

if that vcore reading is right you have alot more in this cpu m8......:)

It's a 6GHz chip :up:

http://img455.imageshack.us/img455/5830/79845824ji5.jpg

Damn nice chip but it looks like the DDR2 is holding you back some.

Abit IP35 still doing good, great results :up:

Thanks guys :)

:yepp: , CPUz is reading the vcore right.

DDR2 and this beta bios is really holding me back for now (hehe kind of ;) ), I've been told a new beta should be out soon. It would be really nice to change little things like ram timings off spd with out having to reset the cmos to get the board to post again.
Or not having to post and boot into windoz @ the speed you want to bench at, as uGuru all most all was reboots you if you change something, and don't even think about changing the vcore with uGuru or you will be very sorry.

But other than that (and it is a beta bios) the board has done great.
If the new bios fixes the issues that I'm having, I'm sure I can pull off 6Ghz.

For now with the above issues in mind, 5.95Ghz on two core is the best I can do.

awesome!!!

nice clocks and scores, thats an awesome cpu. Also nice clocks on the un-modded ultra most do 1000+ on DICE or LN2 with mods. You'll have the 300k AQm & 100K 01 easy. good work :up:

Amazing CPU is real 6 Ghz possible

A wee update.

I've added another PSU (OP750) and changed the CPU pot to a F1 EE.
Though I still haven't got round to modding the card.

Mate, I am loving your work. That's great stuff you're doing there. #OCNZ!!!

I belive you saw a GREAT difference betwean the mass of a K!ngP!n pot and LD :D

Holy crap thats a high frequency... With the right board, and a good pair of DDR3 + some tweaking, thats 7.5s SPI, VERY impressive...

Im not much into 3D, though I have to (Oups, nothing in this sentence ;) )
Your nature in 01SE, is that with or without LOD tweak?

Looks good, did you use the same vcore with ld pot and f1 ee while benching am3?.

Thanks in advance.

Keep pushing it.

As much as I really like my LD pot, it was never designed for quads at silly clocks and vcore.
Where as the F1 EE eats it up and asks for more, Vince has made a spectacular container.
Here's a wee vid I took of the F1 EE & Tek9 in action.

I'm working on a deal for a new board and DDR3 as we speak ;)

Yes, that was with LOD.

No, not the same, as the new run is 235Mhz faster.
I couldn't control the load at anything near that speed with the other pot.
Thats not saying anything bad abot LD's pot, it's just not comparing apples to apples.

wow 6ghz :clap:

wat vcore?

Sounds great...

I dont think the pot matters as much as you point, basicly, the thing with more mass is keeping cold / maintain temperature for a longer period of time, during 1M, AM3 & PiFast you shouldnt be able to notice any difference caused by mass... However, at the 32M, the difference will appear, I think its caused by the voltage... ;)

Okay... Seems like hitting 100K 01SE with daily setup isnt going to happen with single GFX as I hoped for :(
... Or perhaps with some tweaks, however, really gonna require som serious luck :\

Still very impressed by the frequency, its simply INSANE....

Your sick!! :up:

Thanks for the information...

wow Deanzo you really make it hard for us over here don't ya

thank God i got one of these sweet ass F1 EE pots on the way
now just a chip with high enough FSB and you're going down :D :ocau:
can't have little cousins beating big cousins now can we :D

great work just kidding around ;) :D

Nice score, nice cpu :D, but why dont run the Spi1M with the settings what you used for PI Fast ?: D

All I can say it's made a big difference for me, I'd say your right about the voltage, after 5.6 / 5.7Ghz I really need to start pushing them up and the swing I was getting was way to hard to control.
I have a number of issues to work around with this setup (as we all do) something to do with this chip on this board, the beta bios and uGuru, just doesn't work right (never had these issues before this chip and bios) as you would know, to clock up in windoz I can only use uGuru and the thing is, 50% of the time it wont start or it just locks up. If you use CPU-Z with it, it locks up your PC 100% of the time and when it will work on its own I can only clock up 100Mhz at best. So I try and boot at the speed I want to run at, and the new pot as made that very easy.

Hehe, Just wait till I get my new board and ram :p:

You'll really like the pot mate. if you can't tell, I'm very happy with mine :)

Time frame for one, I'd set out a plan on the order of the benchmarks I wanted to run and how much time/Ln2 each would get.
PIFast was the last 2D benchmark to be done and I was still working out what setting were the best at those clock speeds.
Both my SPI times need alot of work imo, but theres all ways a next time.

6G awsome!
and 5.9 sp1... great results

GREAT! You are very well equipped so you must simply achieve good results!
