i5-2500K/2600K batch number and o/c results

[l0ud_sil3nc3]

My new 2600K batch L042B074 boot up's with multi 56x, and stable 5GHz frequency requires only 1.35v!
As you can see from temps that's aircooled with Prolimatech Super Mega.

no sp1 on windows 7 I assume, is that xp?

[Asmola]

No, Windows 7 without SP1.

Very nice, it will be good to see what max benchable is.

Nice chip Asmola
Put it on cold and bench at 55X

Hmm, perhaps i should buy some Dice and ln2 for gpu!

Last chip did 5,55GHz on air but im waiting for some more from this chip.

With cold (around -10C) I think it will go 55X >104 BCLK at relatively safe 1.56Vcore depending on your ram, but focus on benching like 2Ds or 3Ds not stability torture tests (imo those tests relevant just for air/H2O cooling)

What is your RAM setting?

5.55 on air is very nice, you have a great chip, but I see you want a golden one, maybe x56 or x57?

vcore multi overclocking getting boring..

anybody with dram or insane dram to cpu pll voltage clocking??

world record for dram aint that high and with all this awesome chips
cmn ppl break it.

Ram wont be an issue, 2250MHz 7-11-8-25 1T best 32m stablo so far. But im still waiting for Hyper-support for my P8P67 Deluxe..

What is your RAM setting?

Currently using 2133MHz 9-10-9-27 1T which works from XMP.

x57 chip would be nice, but this my 4th cant do that either, atleast without cold.

1st Round of Tweaking Reduced tRFC etc

cooling limit

[Asmola]

Tested Prime95 for the first time with SB and look's like i got pretty stable 5GHz! 1.38v from bios, stress voltage on CPU-Z.
Aircooled with Super Mega feat 2x SWiF2 120P-fans. Forgot memory tab, but it's 2133MHz 9-11-9-27 1T..

Nice vcore running 5Ghz with just 1.35v. What's the lowest vcore at stock speed can you get yours to run stable? Can you go like 1.100v stock speed with EIST and all Cs Disabled?

[Asmola]

See my second last post, prime95 is much harder test to pass and it need's 1.38v (1.408v stress). Temps are also much higher under Prime95.

Havent tested lowest vcore

[Alex-Ro]

Prime95 is bull,test lynx with avx,thats the real deal

[aussie-revhead]

Asmola - if you decide to sell that chip to try a new one please please let me know .....

Nice chip it is mate, Im still searching for a decent one here, that batch seems to have produced a few good chips.

[papatsonis]

i "envy" all of you , i just got the following 2600k, and have to w8 ~10days for a B3 mainboard...

[aussie-revhead]

Nice, where did you get it? Do they ship overseas?

[babalouj]

I am liking this new 2600k L050A933 I picked up today. So far much better than the other 4 2600k's I have owned.

What kind of cooling do you use?

Can we trade?

It's all relative. I can pass LinX w/AVX and not make it an hour rendering in 3ds Max.

Yup

each program testing is geared towards certain hardware testing
Prime is just overall but not definitive
Linx has its uses on certain things but ultimately i look at it as a On/OFF load tester. Half the time its just testing ure mobo skews,pwm setting. Find it very good as 3 program after memtest and then prime and then linx for dram stability.
Vcore as praz said not real.

My 920 4.5ghz 100 linx 5.4gb run
bsod when i running on goggle chrome on 8 tabs doing some macro's running on all 8 tabs 6000 runs each on a certain job. Fixed it later but wasnt a vcore but just as example

Real world application and daily runs are the real deal .

[Mysterfix]

Been working on this one for a while, I got 4.8ghz down to 1.36v but 5ghz is still a mystery. I can get IBT and Lynx to go just fine but prime gives me a random restart every time.
