    Based on the claim of one tiny WU that got in tonight it is showing a claim rate of 52,666 WCG points per day BUT I don't think all the cores are maxxed.
    Now the reverse is that there's a rule of thumb going back to Kentsfields of 1.1 point per day per mhz so 24x1900x1.1= 50,160 so you may be right on the mark..
    k10stat doesn't work with this.
    From what I can see thats only if you have unlocked multi's and I don't.
    Last think I can think of is get the numbers off the PLL controller and hope there's something there to work with.
    Unless someone knows someone on Asus BIOS team..

    Now if only AMD would ramp up clock speeds on Opterons, ya know? WCG is already not very friendly to AMD's x86 cores. They're great at many other things however, as shown by my collection of AMD processor boxes. heh I had a 9800, then a 940, then a 955, then dual Opteron 2427s, a 1055T, and a 1090T. My latest and only Intel system is an E8400 from when Intel still had a manufacturing shortage of 45nm parts at their launch and they were fetching a premium.
    Particle's First Rule of Online Technical Discussion:
    As a thread about any computer related subject has its length approach infinity, the likelihood and inevitability of a poorly constructed AMD vs. Intel fight also exponentially increases.

    Rule 1A:
    Likewise, the frequency of a car pseudoanalogy to explain a technical concept increases with thread length. This will make many people chuckle, as computer people are rarely knowledgeable about vehicular mechanics.

    Rule 2:
    When confronted with a post that is contrary to what a poster likes, believes, or most often wants to be correct, the poster will pick out only minor details that are largely irrelevant in an attempt to shut out the conflicting idea. The core of the post will be left alone since it isn't easy to contradict what the person is actually saying.

    Rule 2A:
    When a poster cannot properly refute a post they do not like (as described above), the poster will most likely invent fictitious counter-points and/or begin to attack the other's credibility in feeble ways that are dramatic but irrelevant. Do not underestimate this tactic, as in the online world this will sway many observers. Do not forget: Correctness is decided only by what is said last, the most loudly, or with greatest repetition.

    Rule 3:
    When it comes to computer news, 70% of Internet rumors are outright fabricated, 20% are inaccurate enough to simply be discarded, and about 10% are based in reality. Grains of salt--become familiar with them.

    Remember: When debating online, everyone else is ALWAYS wrong if they do not agree with you!

    Random Tip o' the Whatever
    You just can't win. If your product offers feature A instead of B, people will moan how A is stupid and it didn't offer B. If your product offers B instead of A, they'll likewise complain and rant about how anyone's retarded cousin could figure out A is what the market wants.

    We agree.
    I see a hell of a potential here.
    Nice running, powerfull even at this low a speed and temps that say to me that there's an easy 1000+MHz to be gotten and on air cooling with good HS and fans.
    One issue I see is the HS mounts.
    Two screws only and thats bad BUT these Dynatrons seem to be doing the job and these will mod just like the H46G's did.
    77mm base,easy to mod 80mm fans to fitand get ridof these molded fans.
    Had Vantec Tornadoes on Harpertown's at up to 3758mhz on this same design fan and they controlled the temps..
    Blew your ears out but they worked.
    Bought a new pair of Vantec Tornadoes just in case I got the OC'ing to work..

    These are essentially two Thurbans under each IHS so think 4 Thurbans at 1900mhz

    What's the OC headroom of this CPU on a single socket MB? Can it get closer to @4GHz? In case, somebody should focus on making a OCable double socket MB/BIOS for this. Then it would get really interesting.

    I would guess on a decent single socket MB this should do 9.5x250or 2375mhz
    You've got that multi as the limiter and more than 250 is pushing..
    The top 6176HE chip(2300mhz)has a 11.5multi so at 11.5x250 your near 3000mhz

    Sorry,I can't hear you over the fans that sound like a 747 is spooling up the engines for takeoff..
    In bios there is also a "whisper" modefor the fans but I watched temps climb to 54C on that setting.
    Key is to replace them with the Vantec Tornadoes bought and put on a fan controller and find that "right" evel between fan speed and noise..
    Ok,bed calls.. Night guys..

    Ok so no big overclocks due to locked multi. Is there a way to adjust the IMC / L3 speeds? I guess its ok though because the strength of this machine should not be clockspeed but the number of cores and the power / performance ratio.

    However, knowing that stephen did well over 3Ghz on stock volts is kind of frustrating.

    You have to remember that S7ephen had unlocked ES chips and he did 2992..

    Those fans are powerful enough to rip a hole in space-time. I wonder if they actually suck in noise when running backwards. Hey, it would work in Star Trek.
