If you pace yourself just right, we will still be here after killing our gulftowns with too much voltage :p:.

Cooling was changed from MUGEN∞2(SCMG-2000) to Megahalems. It and grease changed from AS-05 to Thermal Elixer.

4.92 spi 32m with open window ambients. Need ram capable of 2140 would get better time...my 1600 rated maxes ~2000 with cas 9.

^^^^ very good job. Amazing CPU. How much better are your temps now?
Yeah, I'd like to have these temps 24/7, but just 4,2GHz are that hot at load with 23°C ambient in my living room.
Thanks bro.:up:
My kind of exotic cooling (Not mine, just picked up at google!!!):
Attachment 98939
Putting the pc in there, open all windows and doors, hope for good temps outside - it had 11°C then - and let the machine run!
I have a good friend from america who didn't know my radiator, maybe you also don't know - so here it is:
I have 9 x 120's on it! :shocked:
Attachment 98951
My aim was to run the computer as fast as it can do...due to the fact, that the pcie-clock is limited by Gigabyte at 103.5 MHz I can't go further. There's a Solder mod, but I don't have the heart to do that. Except this fact, the board is impressive and easy to handle to! I now know, that it is possible to run 4,6 GHz, but I don't need it!
Thanks a lot bro.....
I know people running 4,8 on Chiller and one who ran 5GHz primestable with LN2!!!
@emertX: You got a really nice cpu there, low voltage but also quite hot. If you you do the PCIe mod on your GB, I think you'll find that its easier to get 4.6+ stable with slightly less vcore at 104+ on the pci. Thats my experience atleast.
Yeah I'd like to do that, but I don't want to break my mobo...did you do the mod?
Yes, max bootable/stable bclk now is 232 (228 before mod). Think i need cold to get further.
How did you do that? Was it easy?
Could you explain and tell with which voltages you got 4,7GHz primestable? Edit:
Just saw, you just took 4 Threads...Mine is with 8 Threads.
@5GHZ Primestable is great, but LN2 won't work for 24/7 you know.
That 9x120 looks good. Sniper got the same batch# as you, and I remember he was talking about low-voltages but extra heat on this batch#.
I see 9x120 got the heat under control on that hot CPU, good job :up:. With this kind of "exotic"-cooling, you should go for @4.7GHZ now, ... go go ..
The mod is probably easy if your good at soldering, think hicoockie said he used 1 min to do it. For me it was not that easy, but got it in the end.
In normal room temp (22-24 degrees) with 2 360 rads with 1200/1400 rpm fans my W3520 can do ~3640 HT on and ~3750 without HT and still be under 80 degrees in RealTemp for Linx/Prime.
24/7 I'm running at 4515 1.328vcore 1.3vtt and fans turned down to ~700 rpm.
Seems to be the same as mine, but I'm using 1,34Vtt and 1,29V Vcore @ 4,5
Do you Giga owners find your board undervolts much?
1.2 in bios gives me 1.152 in CPU-Z.
@emertX: The picture in the mod thread is better than what I can take.
@vaio: Yes, that is typicall for GB.
Thanks Sniper.
Yes, JC has advised me to lock down LLC.....will see if that settles her down.:)
Oh man...if I will gain that much with the mod??? My board is primestable @ 19x226 with 8 threads, so it is very good, and I do not want to damage it due to some points in 3dmark...
Up to page 66 of this epic novel :D
Seemingly solid at.
200 x 19 HT on.....1.212v in bios (1.168 in Windows).
Makes for a decent lil cruncher.:)
pup, you got an i7? Where as I? :rofl:
Needed a new workhorse to help me back into the top 40 at Poem :D
Currently alternating between Poem and WCG trek.
cool, what are the specs on that rig dude?
In sig :)
Running nice and conservative 3.8 at the moment.
200 x 19 HT on/Turbo off.
1.212v bios.....1.168 in Windows......temp max 70c under crunchy load-in a closed room with no window.

Acts up at anything over 3.8 so leaving her be for now.
Voltages need tweaking a little to go higher (if she can) but right now she seems rock solid so leaving her be.
My lean mean Poem machine :D
very nice pup, I didn't notice the specs were in the sig dude. Gotta love i7's for crunching bro, they are amazing.
