Hey Guys..
This bastard was soldered!
Measurements are:
13.87mm x 12.37mm = 171.5mm2
As mentioned in the image below though, using my calipers, the dimensions come out slightly larger than official numbers on the other two chips.. So I'm thinking it's slightly smaller (SEE BELOW)
A Sneak peak at benchmarks under DDR3.
This very early silicon isn't the best I might add. This chip in particular has two issues:
1. A 1.4v Vcore.
2. Doesn't clock all that well compared to Regor.. topping out around 3.6Ghz under air.
Hopefully these chips will improve OR i have a poor example.
this high Vcore shows itself in Power consumption numbers:
Athlon II X2 250: 81w/117w
Phenom II 905e 2.5Ghz 65w: 84w/129w
Phenom II X2 550 (2core): 91w/138w
Athlon II X4 620: 86w/151w
This may disapoint HTPCers waiting for this chip, but have to see how they progress in later batches.
FURTHER RESULTS TO COME HOPEFULLY..
Anyway I'm going to Japan this week, so testing time is extremely stretched. I WANT to do a Deneb and Agena perhaps detailed Clock/Clock.. I've benchmarked Propus prior to removing IHS incase i wrecked it, but have to bench the others @ 2.6 also.
Anyway, Time to see if it still works!
