Phenomenal II

[k|ngp|n]

Big ups to the overclocking brain trust over at AMD for reaching out and being a really great host. How many times did I say this is so !@#$%^& sick in the last three days?? TOO MANY!

A ton of effort went into these results guys, save the drama about ES samples for someone else's thread. This is about AMD redefining what extreme overclocking is with phenom II platform. How about pots designed to stomp @max full to the top with LN2? How about cold booting a system at -235c? How about over 100% overclock in 3dmark 2006? How about phenom "overclockers" edition cpus that can ALL do evil things when frozen.....we can only dream right? ya never know.

There is still some unfinished business as far as I am concerned, so maybe I can go back again and finish up a few things . Just not enough time and helium to do it all. Stuff goes quick, 300l in 2-3 hrs. All benching done with no affinity stuff or disabling cores, just pure 4 core overclocking.

ASUS CROSSHAIR III and M4A79T-deluxe motherboards
AMD Phenom II 955 ES LHe4 cooled
CORSAIR DOMNATOR GT and 1800CL-7's
AMD 4870X2's in quad X-fire stock clocks & cooling

AMD CPU-Z max frequency

Validation

AMD 3Dmark 2006 with stock clocked 4870X2's. I think with some overclocked 4890's in tri-fire, close to 39K.

AMD pifast @6750mhz 4 cores


AMD superpi 1M@6750mhz 4 cores

Crazy numbers V

Now what ever happened to the 5 container plan? From the pictures it seems like you were just sitting around watching the screen as we expected.

[k|ngp|n]

Thats one of the unfinished biz parts . The other is that I got another cpu stable on helium at 6550mhz+ in 06' and 6612mhz in 05' right before we ran out for the last time.

[Slappa]

Wow very nice Vince.

So so close on the 05. Ah well, next time.

I love the superpi time though. Almost into the single digits for AMD.

[rdrash]

Very nice numbers indeed... exciting me to see more AMD. I may wander back in that direction if I keep seeing these threads.

[eligray]

Sick stuff man .

I love to see AMD's new architecture changing the world of cooling, and I really want to see AMD start taking over Intel in some of the benchies. Competition at the highest performance level is very good for consumers, and for innovation as well

[Morais]

whoa ! amd cpu clock WR and it seems a 3D06 WR too

Great stuff Vince I figured LN2 on the GPUs would be too much to tackle in that one session. Awesome scores man, too bad we don't have Brian's CPU, he was only 100MHz lower on LN2 Can't wait to hear about round II.

[gOtVoltage]

Wow AMD insanity at its finest...The King is in the House ... aw thats Elvise.


Your da man.

[msimax]

absolutely awesome

HOLY SHI-....

Nice

Great work vince, was nice using one of your pots once again and even nicer meeting you personally. Maybe we can do it again sometime.

[LardArse]

Been waiting to read about this, very impressive 05 / 06 considering the time allotted and so on. I'm waiting to congratulate you when you go back to finish up proper

[chispy]

Congratulations on sick scores and those cloks Vince , Monsta cpu
I look forward to round # 2

chispy.

[Hazzan]

Great Result Vince..... any picture in action.....

[xman01]

simply amazing

[GOLI@TH]

Big WOW..!! Awesome..

7Ghz with 4 cores is just about matter of time.

[AndreYang]

I know I must work hard to pass your AMD's score.

[[XC] Oj101]

All I can say is you're the best for a reason, well done

[carpo93]

great run

i hope my 955 can do the same

[SamHughe]

So...can this thing run Crysis 30+ FPS?

[sandy]

awesome , great result dude

[jason str]

Sweet, nice chip. Another fine picture to frame on the wall of accomplishments.

[Zeus]

Truely awesome! That SuperPi 1M is totally wicked at 6755MHz!

I'm just wondering where the 37400 for 06 in this pic came from:



Is that one of your back ups Vince?

How was the Crosshair III compared to the M4A79T deluxe, is it worth it getting this board?

[Chrono Detector]

Looks good, hopefully you'll guys get to overclock it even further.
