P5B DLX Reloaded - E8500 @ 629 FSB on air

[Viss]

Tried the same today Dinos. Same E8500 and Commando that wil do 600mhz FSB 32M with 6 multi on air. Problems to get over 593 with 9.5 multi though. Chip boots at -100 and runs -140 fine. No tweaks or pmem and cas5:

Great clocks mate, do you think you were fsb limited at 9.5 multi or was it just the cpu speed coming to a grinding halt?

I can imagine 5611MHz is pretty much all it had in it.

[Viss]

Not sure Zeus. Ran it at Extera's, thanks a lot my friend it was good fun Gained a lot goin up from 1.64 to 1.84v but not a mhz from 1.84 to 1.95v. Think/hope it was board but we ran out of time unfortunately.

dinos22, its probably chipset I could do validation @ 636 but anything above 570 was not 32M stable. 600 was ok for 1M

Chipset DI/LN2 cooled + 2V should help, I am going for 9x640 next week and 6Ghz when I get 8500

i don't think that's the case

i was 32M stable at 580 on 6 and 9 multi as well 585 8M SuperPi spotty and 1M 590

so i was just maxed out by FSB here donno

davemelb has done dual 32M SuperPi on air cooling at 600MHz (well it stopped 3/4 way which is very close to stable with some other CPUs) >> I have them at home

the chip i benched was happy doing the same tests with 1.67v as 1.8v so my chip certainly had plenty of steam left in it

nice clock my friend ,congrats

Dino-san, its bad to hear about the FSB limit on P965,with the same chip i was benching at 600+ on X38 and no more than 590 on P35 ,both dice cooled,i think the fsb limit is memory(divider?!?) related or imature bios (Blitz 1402 ),anyway i got a spare E8500 ,630FSB on air and its enough for 6ghz,and how i promisse to u i will send it for you (but you send me back after finishing )

hey dude
nah man i am not posting in your thread to complain or anything it's all good lol

btw i finally received those VRs and sending it all to kayl today to send with the goodies

i will test it on X38 boards on LN2 soon
fingers crossed 600 stable for some 5.7GHz benching hehehe

Hmm, maybe I misunderstood you. You have p5b dlx that maxes out @ what fsb (on air) with other chips, 600+? So, you also have 8500 that maxes at 590 1M on the same dlx?

If that's the case then it is cpu wall already on air. Freeze it and wall will rise up to 50-60fsb in the best case

I have tested 4 chips on 965. They all max out 620fsb flat on air. I must be either very luck or many 45nm will do 600+ easily

[dinos22]

it must be my explanation hehe

this board used to below to a member called davemelb who tested 3xE8400 CPUs and all of them benchmarked 590MHz FSB with ease on air cooling

i don't know where the wall on this E8500 is as i haven't got the right board yet that can give me the FSB i need but i would not be surprised to take 6GHz screenshots if i found the right board as this CPU is a great overclocker with very low vcore and also it's a very hot CPU as well.....all the makings of a great chip hahahah

dinos22 when we are talking about high fsb CPUs, what did u do with 620mhz air 6850?

i just tested it on air and did some 580 32Ms from memory and sent it owards because yorkfield was in town...who'd waste time on old tech right :p

right

[dinos22]

right

it's a real shame i was so late to the race with these because i've had soo many nice CPUs but just a touch too late

right now i'm trying to get some great dual cores for current platform
it seems that it's more of a motherboard hunt now than CPU hunt

[Asus-Commando]

Golden chip here, congrats Duck-san. Could you please tell us the FPO/BATCH code?

Can you please let me know what settings you've made to rise the memory frequency above 1200 MHz on Asus Commando?
Thanks!!

which X38 board you used to get 600+ fsb??

NewBeetle-san done 6Ghz, but not share here yet..

why is that not unusual to hear

As far as I can see, I reckon that about 85% (or even more) of the E8500 cpu's are capable of 6G screenshots with the right motherboard .

ill have one of those mother boards please

[dinos22]

ill have one of those mother boards please

lol meeeeeee toooooooooooooo

[Disaster_Master]

nice clock you all have.

really tempting to buy one of those chips when my commando comes back from rma.

What do these puppies on air ???

The only boards I'd try out for high clocks are the Asus Commando and DFI LP P35, I think. However, you just have to be very lucky (like always LOL) ... once the P35 biosses are tuned well for Wolfdales, we'll see more and more 6G's

lol,I know my friend but mine seems to be a bit better and probably will hit 6ghz,of course i want that number and I'm searching for LN2(thx Duck-san & Omega-san for helping) for a 6ghz screen but I need some time (weeks i think)and you are ready to do it now,so you go first hehehe,thats it

[PcCI2iminal]

which X38 board you used to get 600+ fsb??

Asus P5E3 WS Pro with no mods hits 600FSB+

Tested on 45nm cpu ?
