the statement says "they bench with ivy"

wonder no more.

I was being a little sarcastic, everyone knows Ivy rocks

[Don_Dan]

Alvin, what chips are used on your PI Black kit? Hyper or BBSE? Hyper won't be your best choice for IB. Can you post a picture of the kit?
I saw you asked in youngpro's thread if someone has tested the TridentX 2400 kit, yes, there is a thread by PcCI2iminal in the Xtreme Bandwidth section. Those should treat you well too.

Having fun with Ivy without IHS, waiting for retail CPU (I don't wanna go to pro ):







So relaxing, benching at full pot, no coldbugs or coldboots, mobo boots every single time

[Don_Dan]

Nice!

How about another 32M? ^^

If any of you guys need a break from benching here's a good use for any 24/7 capable machines you have..

Ok, thats my spiel and I'll leave you in peace now!
Thanks

G that is awesome, you have a pretty nice chip, 6.5 with only 1.82v, hopefully your retail clocks better

I got email #134359 out of 168000

I think I will setup the daily for this and help the team out.

Thanks!

might shoot you a pm or two as I have never set up a folding client but I am reading the link from your last post right now.

@ G.Foyle: did you had any gain popping the IHS ?

[G.Foyle]

Dunno, I removed the IHS to test OC on air. Never tried it on subzero with IHS. On air - no gain.

so temps ARENT being caused by tim layer instead of solder? im grabbing 3750k this week sometime hopefully and 3770k after the 15th.

Here's the conclusion of my article, translated by google's robomonkeys:

Maybe on water or with select HDT coolers you would have a small gain, but in usual conditions it's very dangerous, creates lots of problems and doesn't help at all.

excellent review, weird to see temps increase in some instances with IHS removed.

I think with HDT coolers it would be even more dangerous...creating hot spots on the die between the heatpipe areas.

I didn't think the IHS/paste had all that much to do with temps either.

[Hondacity]

HDT isnt good at all. it doesn't have heat capacity like a normal venom cooler.

[G.Foyle]

Thanks for the kind words guys

HDT with maximum heatpipes and minimum 'dead areas' wouldn't be very dangerous since silicon itself is a decent heat conductor. Vapor chamber would be the best of course

[Hondacity]

HDT for example..you have the small die area...you won't be able to utilize the heatpipes that doesn't touch the die.

With the plate from for example venom, heat will be spread on the plate. hence "heat spreading". and sandwiching plates lol

But there will be parts of the die with no contact.

Stil have a "gem" Intel yonah

man you truly are XIP

Looking good G! I hope you or someone else on our team is gonna go for a dirty 01 score. With a high clocking Ivy, the 580GTX can finally spread its wings and fly.

[trans am]

damn I wish I had someone to tell me if this retail is any good. Gfoyle's clock is awesome I just would like to know what your guys air or h20 clocks were before you got your containers on. I'm new to all this. also I see all of you on some shamino bios with all these RAM tweak settings for bbse, ic specific. I cannot see those setting in my bios> do I need to run Ln2 mode to get those settings or is it a specific bios you are on?
I found this MVE guide on youtube but I can't get the bios setting right. I got up to the beer part and after that it gets really cloudy.. I can't remember what you set after the beer. I hit del key after post but I end up getting some black and red screen bios except I can move my mouse in it.

@ transam: download Shamino's guide: http://www.datafilehost.com/download-1636169b.html
You need to set ln2 mode to see additional options in bios.

I tried one retail 3570K, and it was the crappiest IB ever made: CB at -120, -140 after tweaking Wouldnt even be stable at 6 GHz Time for another chip.

You'd better put the beer part after the clocking part...

I'm sure the next one will be much better!

Should Z68 be okay with Ivy?
