Meh. So far not any better than my current chip

One more try

Was the second one any better?

looks tasty!

and here I am wasting time with 2x 2630v2...

Testing them on LN2?

Well, 8+ for sure, already did 8007 with that CPU on Gigabyte 990FX...
Thermal paste just came today.

I know it's the 8GHz CPU, that's why I'm hoping for 8.1GHz.

Good luck!

Not that it stands a chance against the mighty Geode

no point to running a dell on ln2 lol

ecc 1866 is NOT fast at all

Where are your LN2 scores already? You need almost 25% more

Wait, where are mine? I'm slow.

[I.nfraR.ed]

Even if FX-8120 manages to beat Andre's record, let's say it does 8800, it's still ~184% overclock.
This is equal to Geode NX-1500 running at 2840, which it will definitely do with cold :p

I didn't say I could beat you, I said your air score sucks.
Maybe I can find a Geode in two months...

[I.nfraR.ed]

Yes, this sample is not very good, but someone with good enough cpu will do 200+ %. No FX can touch that :/
That's what I wanted to say, not that I will win the stage (most probably not). Speaking generally, not 'bout my score.

[BeepBeep2]

Yes, this sample is not very good, but someone with good enough cpu will do 300+ %. No FX can touch that :/

Not quite true if you find a gem. I think an FX CPU can touch 300% no 9.3 GHz required.
Modern day Geode...

[I.nfraR.ed]

Lowest clocked FX is 8100, which would need 8400MHz valid with 454MHz HTRef/FSB clock. I don't see that happening :p
Next in line is FX-8120 with base frequency of 3.1, which means 9.3GHz.

The best possible variant is Phenom II TWKR, but I don't think it's allowed.

The 8100 is unlocked.

[I.nfraR.ed]

Yeah, all FX should be unlocked, my bad.
Then it is easier, but still very hard in my book. How many would you bin to find a 8.4+ gem?
Every 1 MHz on a Geode is another 1% on top of the score. Not sayin' it is impossible, but it would require extreme luck or a lot of money.
I'd say - better bin Geodes.

Maybe there are other possibilities which I don't see atm.

Just sayin', I still want to see how far you can go with your FX-8120, it's about time you start benching again

PS: And sorry about hijacking this thread.

I have a watch on 6 of them. 8400 is a stretch, 8000 maybe not.
I don't think anyone cares about thread hijacking :P


Still don't know how you got async mem to work on DFI NFII
I almost "killed my BIOS", took 20 minutes for it to post.

EDIT:
BIOS corruption finally put a halt to me...4 LEDs of death.
The stupid thing is that it happened using CMOS Reloaded (loading my saved OC profiles) and not from asynchronous memory divider.

Moving on, pulling out the Crosshair V Formula >: )

LOL, I thought you had two chips to bin, but now I get it, you're running a dual-socket setup.

No problem!

I saw it on Facebook after being offline for a few days, I'm glad it's working again!

[BeepBeep2]

Look at the timestamps.

Still dead. I'll keep trying but I really doubt its going anywhere.

EDIT:
Going to take some personal time off until July, no results until then. Sorry guys. I need a mental break with complications behind the scenes.

Take your time, Sam, and come back stronger than before!

[NKrader]

check out dat score
http://www.3dmark.com/sd/2173427

not amazing i know.. but with an h80i and referance block thats not bad at all?

[Don_Dan]

Better than 97% of all results sounds great!

I have to admit, I have absolutely no idea about 3DMark Sky Diver...

[Don_Dan]

Please welcome CL3P20!

[l0ud_sil3nc3]

Please welcome CL3P20!

Awesome news! Welcome Ryan

Cl3P20 knows his way around a soldering iron better than anyone I know, glad to have him on board

[Crabby]

Welcome to the team CL3P20! I see you have been benching that new Pentium, looks good.

Ha just looked and your going for MOA, nice I hope you do well!

[Crabby]

And so it begins, I just "glued" my first hs to an old gpu! The card is an ati x600 256mb pci-e. Next I have a nb cooler in mind....

What are you going to do if you want to put a LN2 pot on the card?

[l0ud_sil3nc3]

Have not been as active as I like, and I have this posted in the Z97 OC Formula thread but this is what I have been up to:

G3258 madness!

[Don_Dan]

Is this the first G3258 you've tried?

How strong is the IMC on this one or on the G3258 in general if you've already tested more chips?

[filmbot]

Who's great with a soldering iron? Who has a high end AGP card? Who has some great BH-5 or TCCD?

No there's not a trend to be asking these questions, just wondering!

EDIT: Also interested in good Micron GTR/S (CSX).
