Intel 4.5GHz & 5GHz LinX Stable Club

Interesting testing some_one. I'm just curious how big of a GFlops performance hit you get when monitoring with RealTemp. I have tried to keep RealTemp nice and lean so hopefully not too much. Monitoring programs that show the data graphically usually require more CPU cycles. It should be hard to notice much of a performance difference when RealTemp is minimized to the system tray.

I did that test before, on Gulftown. Difference with or without RealTemp is under 1 GFLOPS. And that is when it's not minimized, with refresh at default 1 second. I'm very happy with it.

TMonitor is a bit of an extreme example, just something to be aware of. As results may vary from system to system best IMO if the poster tries a quick test running Linx with the apps that they would like to run at the same time then close each one and see if it makes a significant difference. As donmarkoni said, the CPU hungry apps can be run at the end if desired for the SS.

The performance difference is insignificant (from my experience).
It is usually apps like AIDA and HWInfo that poll a lot of sensors at the same time that cause the GFlops to go down (since reading sensor data seems to be of a high priority to the system and there are no free resources to allocate during LinX).

New Linpack libraries ver. 10.3.5.008 are available.
Grab the updated LinX here or from the OP.

I wonder if this fixes the >9GB bug. I'll try it tonight.

Got to say Norman, that is one stonking clock. Congrats on it mate....................................will it do anymore ?

Awesome

Cheers Kitfit and Dumo.............Keeping my options close atm...........just in case it needs the latest LinPack

I'd like to know why my Girlyplops are so high (I know, they're not that high but they are high compared to my usual fare). The memory is reliable but not overly speedy......GSkill Trident F3-16000CL9T-6GBTD (2000 CL9-9-9-24).

I've not done anything in the bios (Gig UD7-B3) apart from a bit more Vtt (1.160) and the obvious Vcore increase. CPU PLL is at 1.660v, Vdram 1.66v. All memory tabs are at "Auto" or default and CR at 2.

Windows 7 64bit SP1 (AVX)

Is it quite simply the efficiency of the memory controller in this chip?

[zalbard]

just in case it needs the latest LinPack

Nope, it does not. Use whatever you're comfortable with.
The latest Linpack may increase stress levels and performance or reduce execution time, which is a good thing. But you're doing it for yourself. If someone wants to run LinX 0.6.3 with old libraries on their new 2500k at 50 GFlops then it's their deal. It won't be my computer that may crash in one of the upcoming demanding games when you least want it to.

P.S. Sorry that I kept you waiting for the reply. It's summer and I am slowly modding/rebuilding my rig. PM if there is something urgent the next time.

P.P.S. Looks like the first post update keeps timing out, it's either the site today or the post simply got too big!

it's because u use 4threads no HT. (higher Gflops)

[newhit]

Thanx for that.

I'm trying to get a 4C/8T with the new linpack to compare the two runs............if I can replicate the first.

I really need to figure out the LLC settings on this board... vdroop is killing me. I have been spoiled by Asus voltage monitoring. How do I monitor voltages in windows? Temps were below 60°C so I know it wasn't getting anywhere near 1.6v under load.

My best using the new Linpack compared to my previous post. Drop in Girlyflops for 8 threads but no bios changes

OOPS!.........forgot to say that I did change my ram to Gskill Ripjaws

Hi Guys,

my friend just bought a new computer with a 2600k and a p67 sabertooth.

we overclocked his processor to 5ghz and 1.45V. But what concern me is that he gets only around 60gigaflop in Linx.... its almost half the speed im getting with mine.

We dont know whats causing this. This is mostly a BIOS Setting but we cant find it.... and you cant seem to disable turbo mode on this motherboard, which is weird.

Can someone with the same motherboard help us??

Thanks.

he needs windows 7 sp1

he needs windows 7 sp1

Thanks trying this right now.

and yes "he didnt have sp1 installed" :\

old ass windows 7 installation cd

I was going to try and do better with this chip, but decided to go back to my 970... Figured I may as well submit my 4.5GHz HT on result, since I don't have any results with HT on. Interesting beast, this chip. Its core is much better than either of my two 970's, but the uncore is not as good.

I ran this OC 24/7!

Hey guys, my first ever submission for the LinX stable club! Also, my first time water-cooling, and first time overclocking. I'm pretty happy with my results, hope you guys are too!

Kyprioth | Core i7 990x [6C 6T] @ 4762.8MHz | 1.450 | ASUS Rampage III Black Edition | Water | 3045A751



I don't actually use TurboV to change settings, just to monitor them from the OS. When I first started OC'ing yesterday I changed something and hit apply, and it froze my system. About 5 mins of Google search revealed at least half a dozen other forum threads with people saying they blew up their CPU thanks to TurboV. Since then I've done it the slow way, BIOS overclocking.

The voltages in the left half of the TurboV window (not the ones in the monitor strip on the right) are what they are set to in the BIOS, The only ones I've set manually are BCLK Frequency, CPU Voltage, QPI/DRAM Core Voltage, DRAM Bus Voltage, and IOH. The rest are all on (Auto).

I got to where I am now basically by following guides and trial and error. Whenever I bump up either the multiplier or BCLK it wont boot and I don't know which voltages I need to tweak, and how much, to get it to work at 5GHz. Can anybody here who is familiar with rampage BIOSes lend me a hand?

Your overclock is not stable at all.
First, your GFlops are too low(you should be able to hit 100GFlops at 4.6GHz).
Secondly your residual changes significantly through your run. It should be the same for every loop on a run.
You obviously disabled 'stop on error', which is why your run keeps going even though your residuals are all messed up.

Gah, really? Can you help me fix that at all? Or direct me somewhere? I thought everything was fine, like I said, i'm completely new to this, and I really don't understand what any of the numbers mean.
