Phenom II X4 @ +6 GHz by Team Finland

[FatAlbert]

Sampsa, you can't tell us what is score of 3d but can you tell us is deneb can be good as c2q ?

[YukonTrooper]

Yah. Always the slight possibility someone tried setting highest 24/7 voltage then finding highest clocks, but I guess not this time. Good job, though! Can't wait to see even better results.

[donitsi]

If it is fully tune... cpu speed, memory clock and timing... + GPU oc....

Is it it capable blowing any 3D WR?

Crysis @ 6Ghz & 3-sli 280 would have nice fps!

Great job!
I'm wondering if ACC is used on the Gigabyte 790GX-DS4H? Is it enabled through BIOS or AOD? (I'm buying an AMD board soon, this Gigabyte seems great, but I don't use Windows....so, AOD option is gone)

[Benny Lodewijk]

Great Sampsa !! AMD strike back

[Dsjjang]

impressive results~

ACC was used to get first generation Phenoms overclock better. Phenom II X4 is already optimized for overclocking.

So basically, I've got no benefit from ACC when overclocking Phenom II Did you try Phenom II on non SB750 boards?

[junior-21-]

Will you try the Asus Deluxe M3A79 T also?

nice work guys!

[Sampsa]

c'mon guys.. all the info is on first post. we didn't test 24/7 speeds, we didn't test non sb750.. read the first

[davidletterboyz]

Thanks for answering. Sampsa!

Actually I noticed that, even good batch of Phenom (Agena) doesn't benefit from ACC. ACC benefits more on B2's and multi-locked Phenom. But still, most SB750 o/cers leave it on Auto setting.

Excellent job Sampsa. I will be able to check myself what this baby can do under LN2 during weekend. Though, this no coldbug situation is SO promising. I loved the pic with the pot filled with LN2...

Check out a few air results with PhenomII that can be done by anyone. No tweaks, Vista 32 OS, just simple slight o/ced runs.

Did you guys use any measures to counter the cold freezing up the board? Any hassle with caps/chokes not working properly? Did you check the thermal gradient across the board- especially near the CPU area?

Nice numbers, thanks for sharing! I hope they translate to results well

This has just confirmed my excitment about these chip Thanks Sampsa et al.
TBH i dont care if this platform performs slightly less than Intel's, its going to be a hell of a lot of fun to play with!

[nachthymnen]

Wow, amazing frequencies guys!!
2 months without visiting forum and now this news
Congratz
Can't wait to see some bench

[DeDaL]

Looks very interesting
No coldbug is very sexy

[Nordling]

ok,
SuperPi?

Normal Armaflex insulation around CPU socket and lots of toilet paper did the job

[Sampsa]

SuperPi?

Seriously, read the first post. I don't want to repeat myself over and over again

[s3rv3r]

pretty impressive results. I`m waiting for new pictures. Thanks guys, great work.

[dinos22]

very exciting Sampsa
i look forward to testing these

fun times ahead
intel needs to go back to the drawing board and get rid of CB like AMD

who would think that one day you could just fill up the pot and forget about it like that huh? Vince will start making deeper pots now hahahah

[BulldogPO]

Looks great!
I LOL:ed that WTF impression on SF3D's face
When you dudes are going to test Phenöm 2 under "Murokaskadi"?

[SAE]

Great. I am eager to see benching results the day NDA lifts.

[blind_ripper]

good time's comming back to use , thx for the head's up sampsa and SF3D .

Oh YESSSS!!! Next issue that should be taken care of is... CONDENSATION. Makers must start making insulated motherboards with plastic and armaflex included in the bundle.
