small update from me =]

forgot to change memory timings but passed anyway =] working on 4650 ;]

Congrats, nice job.

zalbard can you please update my entry

Hi guys!

May I join?

a lot of really nice NEW OC's and linX runs guys keep it up

Great chip man


Nice work guy's.

[tool_462]

Got another chip I'll have to join with when it cools down outside, can't justify messing with LinX for 4.5Ghz when 4.25 is rock stable where I'm at atm.

Thanks fellas will try to tweak it a bit more after work

Nice one looking forward to your results.

Probably only 4.5Ghz in the club on stock cooling 96C

I've been testing i5 760s. You'll need a wonder chip to get in here with one of those on air.

I've got a really good one here compared to the others I tested (low vid but v high temps) which will do it on water. 4.4ghz is just about possible on air, temps hitting 90c already though.

[OC Nub]

the lynnfield chips are hard to get stable at 4.5, i have been trying 4.6 linx on my 870 HT disabled and seems impossible. if you get that 760 to pass 4.5 PiLsY its a keeper for sure.

[PiLsY]

Got 4445 to pass last night @ 1.376v load indicated in cpuz. That took 1.5125v in bios with no LLC on. Having to use 22x multi as I cant go over 4300 and maintain bclk above 210. You're right man, 4500 will be right at the limit of what these chips can do. I think 23x multi would see me to 4500 on air, odd multi's clock higher and not pushing the bclk really helps core clock.

Having said that I am running the ram at 10x so 2000mhz+ @ 7-9-7-24-2T (g.skill eco). Had to drop to 4gb though as NONE of the cpu's I had would go stable over 4.1ghz with 8gb of ram no matter what voltage or bclk I tried. Below 4.1 was fine. Symptom was Linx just erroring at the end of every pass no matter what volts. 760 is still B1 step incase anyone was wondering. Booted right up on the non 760 bios, ran at 12x133 default, vid detected correctly but post screen listed as unknown cpu. Was 100% stable though. Upgraded bios to F10 anyway, but handy to know that you at least have a chance of completing a bios flash for full support if you cant pre-flash support.

[tool_462]

Since they came out, it has been the case with average and even well above average chips that they run up to 4.3-4.4 with reasonable voltages, and then basically hit a wall. My 750 would do 4.2 with 1.28v loaded but took 1.376 loaded for 4.3.

[PiLsY]

Im at the limit with this heatsink, pure and simple. I got this one cos it was quite cheap - is the titan fenrir v2 actually any good? I was bloody annoyed it came with a backplate for every socket except 1156 (and the ek multi doesnt fit this board either). The fan looks like a POS, but I can't see more than a degree or two from a fan swap. I probably need 10c improvement over the fenrir to get 4.5 stable enough for linx. Prime runs fine for over an hour, just linx gets it too hot.

Still, if it was easy what'd be the point?

Oh wow, i'm amazed it still finished the linx run at those temps..

[PiLsY]

HWMonitor reads about 5c higher than realtemp. Impressive though, I "only" managed 4350 on the stock heatsink. Thats a good cpu you got there .

[SteveRo]

@ toptakachi - excellent work!
530 on ggbt H55M is supposed to be the latest greatest hot setup for oc - 530 sampled to get 6.88ghz - http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=254077
I would think you should be able to go much higher on water.

[zalbard]

The OP should be up-to-date.

Agreed! Well done, folks!
