The CES Swiftech waterblock Challenge/ XS Party

[Supertim0r]

Yes, my chip is an ES chip, QTOI that will be shooting for the moon. Its about to get blanked, but the serial remains. Ill try to post a pic lapped to 2000.

Quite a few people confirmed including a few manufactures.

whats the week ?

Is it a B3 ?

[Nanobot]

Supertim0r I think all B2 ES in the X6800 are stepping QTOI . Hey who knows maybe it's the new holly grail of B3 core 2 duo CPU . Lol

Fugger give us a little burn-in pre-wr action plz. Let's see some air cooled OC results on this beast
I bet it can do ~3.9GHz at 1.25v

[syne_24]

Getting things together, we should have the RD600 here in time. We will also be showing off the Hipro tech DDR Maximizer.

I have a super cherry chip, sent special from Intel. The highest binned X6800 (one week old) will be used for a world record attempt, I will have the mobo's ready and tested for the attempt.

damn super chery picked lol..it doesnt get any better than that

[Thrilla]

Anyone can give me a ride from Vancouver, BC Canada?

[OPPAINTER]

One more day and I pack up the truck and hit the road for Vegas

I figuer we'll just use this water loop.



And we'll use this eVGA board, I have 3" x 6/32" screws we can use for mounting posts, with these posts I'm sure we can accommodate most every buddies block without have to mess around installing different mounting systems.

man I love oppainter

Makes me wish I lived in Cali. Would only be a short drive.

[Charles Wirth]

Setup on the Vapochill, a 32m @ 4.5Ghz
EVGA 680i
DRR2 @ 1Ghz 4-3-3-x 2T FSB 500

[Okda]

a good start


hope this super cherry chip is ready for some WRs

[Supertim0r]

500 fsb
vcore ?

[LvMike]

SO i take it this is open to any one who just wants to drop on by? If so i think i will show up, my dumb a$s forgot to grab a free CES pass. NOw im stuck reading about the fun i should be seeing. this will make up for it a bit.

[SoF]

so it is today, hmmmm think I'll be late when getting to the airport now ^^
this sounds like a very very interesting party.
Hope it will be again next year, maybe I can join then from germany

[ShoNuff]

So when are we going to get specs and pics of this new "wunda block?" Retail pricing would also be nice.

[Jochenp]

[mion]

I took it apart and compare it with picture of regluar apoggee

[-Acid-]

Cannot wait to see this well done Eric on getting this comp running (Shame on the doubters, i dont think an Xs X.I.P would put his name to something unfair) Really wish i could attend but like marci I,m too far away

Charles that chip looks scary good 500fsb on a -45 Vapo MMMMM

[LvMike]

It was a fun event with a few performance glitches. I left at 12:00 so i will let others talk about results. It was nice to finaly met a lot of you and have faces to and real names to put to handels.

My 1Kw SR also was a DOA to start, it never fired up the max board but my half dead Athena was used instead. Checking the core mod popped off the end of the resistor but the board still worked up to around 4.8Ghz, the vcore was all over and when we adjusted the post it only got worse, in the end we saw a 1.71v ~ 1.88v erratic jumping around. The board suffered catastrophic heart failure, a capital F. is now permanently displayed on the post diag. We sat around and made many jokes how bad we were F. by the board. Send a note with RMA asking them to get the F. off this board.

As we passed around the RD600 reference board, Kris walks over and we all hear static snap when he reached for it. We fired the board up for kicks and it disliked the x6800 stepping we were running.

Quite a few people arrived and the cascade threw down some tripple digit sub zero numbers. We will try again tomorrow night.

man that's too bad. Well, I guess it can't get any worse from here. Are you guys going to do the contest tonight instead? take some pics for us.

Musta been one hell of a party ... can't locate any news of the "Swiftech Challenge" results.

Just a simple question to anyone in the know...

Did Swiftech have to give away the "prize"???

[Helmore]

Yup they did, the D-Tek Fuzion was better then their block. You can read a lil more about it in the Liquid Cooling section, look for the "Fuzion" thread. I'm sure Philly_Boy will get us the results as soon as he can.
