PPD of Opty 1356

[Oldguy932]

Well, I got this Opty 1356 like a month or so ago to see if it was better than the B3 rev of Phenoms. I couldn't clock the chip very well, I think its only running at 215x11.5@1.2v for WCG. Now when it first started WCG, I would get maybe 1000 points tops per day. Then like a week and a half ago I started getting like a minimum of 1300 points per day, many being 1500-1700. I'm wondering what's going on because I run my 9600 at 2.7ghz and it gets 1000 points tops per day. I didn't change anything with it when it started doing it, all I do is make sure its sending its work units in instead of sitting around like on my Q9450. Also, does anyone know what the ppd of a stock Q6600 is around just for comparison?

I'm not sure I've ever seen a stock q6600 crunching here

I've got one....it's a real dud Runs 24/7 though

Makes about 11,000WCG points a day or 1,575 BOINC.

That's kind of odd, AMD's don't normally get the close to Intel performance in number crunching situations. It does have the 10x multi for the nb rather than being maxed at 9 so that might explain it partially. I just bumped the speed up to 11.5x220 at 1.25v so it might actually hit higher temps than 31C (And that only happened when the room hit disgustingly warm temperatures)

31C!!! is that load? i dont even see that low on my 65W x2 OCed from 2.2 to 2.45, the lowest i see on it is 34 cause my cores are 5C apart. and i may be bumping up to 2.5 to see if i can get 100% stable at reasonable vcore, took forever to get stable (no lockups or random bsod) at 2.45

Doing 29C right now load at 220x11.5 1.25v which is probably slightly much. These cpu's run really Really cool, I am on a TRUE though, but no other phenom cpu of mine runs quite as cool as these. Sadly since the bios doesn't support them they don't quite as well as they should IMO. 240ish is max htt boot and that's with everything I learned on tweaking them from my other 5 phenoms. Also they don't natively support 1066 ram, so you need to set the divider to 800mhz before putting it in or it doesn't boot. I hope the SB750 boards with 790Fx have support for the cpu so I can clock this sucker.

On topic, for today the Opty got 1646 Boinc points and the Phenom 9600 which is clocked higher got 868. Yeah... still makes no sense.
