Sandy Bridge FPO Batch list (Excell sheet)

[Leeghoofd]

K I'll put up a list, as I did it with the Wolfdales BUT

1) I need more proof then just saying that you got 5ghz at 1.35 stable

2) What I propose :

Grab this LinX version from Zalbards thread ( as it almost correctly stresses all the cores and threads ) : linx(0.64)_10.3.0.003.zip Or use Prime95 eg with custom test 12K-12K selected.

3) In case of LinX : all ram has to be selected ( preferably over 2.8Gb, so only option is a 64Bit OS ) and it has to be at least 20 runs and still running when taking the screenshot. So select eg a 25 loops; start the test. Once you pass 20 loops, grab a screenie with everything running. For prime9 an hour of the custom test (12 -12K) is already a good indication if the CPU is stable

4) CPU-Z : CPU, Mobo and Memory tab open

5) TMonitor open ( to see all the cores loaded )
32 Bit : TMonitor_1031_32.exe
64 Bit : TMonitor_1031_64.exe

Or Task manager or sortlikes that show clearly 100% load on all the cores...

6) Realtemp open from the start of the test ( this to monitor actual running time as prime95 screenies can be easily faked ) or keep task manger open with the prime95 process time listed

7) List : CPU , Batch, Mobo & Bios version , cooling type. Additional info as CPU PLL voltage, Override enbled,... can be added

If more ideas pop up plz let me know, will start to collect from today

Eg here is a screenie of what is required :




THIS BY ALL MEANS IS NOT A THREAD WHERE PERFORMANCE, GFLOPS OR OTHER THINGS MATTER. THERE'S NO MINIMUM SPEED LIMIT EITHER. IT'S INTENDED TO FIND GOOD BATCHES MORE EASILY... Also no discussion on what's to be called stable or not. If it's stable for you then it's for me... if you want max stress test use Prime 96 26.4 version and LinX with Win7 and Service pack 1

If 4.5 is ya thing let's us know, this thread doesn't need to be 5ghz plus only...

Thx for the cooperation

I read somewhere prime95 for sandy bridge is more stressful than linx ? true or false ? Some batches at http://i4memory.com/f55/intel-core-i...rs-list-27701/ but no stress tests, just rough results find across the web

[Leeghoofd]

True George, sort of counts for AMD too. But some prefer LinX others Prime95... leaving the option open... but for LinX a 64 bit OS is a must, and for maximum stress Win7 with SP1...

[flesheatinvirus]

Cool, I use Prime myself which works for me.

[crossg]

Posted this yesterday in the 2500K 2600K Batch thread.

i7 2600K Batch L038A660.
Mobo ASUS P8P67 Deluxe. Bios 1053.
Cooling Air. Thermalright Venomous X-RT.
Bios set at 1.395v.
Min during test 1.398v.
Max during test 1.408v.

[CoolZone]

That is something weird. I see that you have about 60GFlops at 5GHz and I get about the same value with my 2500K at 4.3GHz. I am guessing that your CPU is throttling. (an internal protection is triggered, besides the multiplier)

[flesheatinvirus]

That is correct. I experienced that a few days ago and with Unclewebbs newer Realtemp program managed to catch that throttling at about 50c and above, it starts to drop the multi in 1/10 fractions down to about a 100mhz total drop at times.

Thanks for the clarification.

[Jupiler]

A screenshot with task manager opened, which shows the process, cpu time and memory used, might be another option to add for validation.

I'm using uncle webs new real real temp 3.65

So your saying my cpu is throttling above 50.c. Doesn't RealTemp show a log if it's throttling? also woudln't that show in the TM monitor? See here

[Ghostleader]

@Leeghoofd

Great initiative with this thread

Probably due to that he ran HT and you without HT.

I don't know if your chip is throttling but mine certainly seems like it is. I would think your RealTemp should show it if its happening. I only really noticed it after installing version 365 while running Prime95. On my Torture rack system I can control liquid cooling temp to a great degree with dual remote PA 120.3 rad setups. During Prime testing at 5G or greater as temps climbed into the 50s I experienced the fractional drop in multi, I then reduced liquid cooling temp down to high 30s and all throttling ceased and reading became stable again.

Yeah I'm guessing somethings up. Im new to Linx and there are 75 background processes running. Cant even get it to work on my 980X system. More reading.

[burebista]

Try ThrottleStop instead that fancy graphs drawing program. You'll have all threads, multi, load, temps, all.
You should spot easily a multi throttling or clock/chipset modulation.
It's a work in progress for controlling Sandy but in monitoring mode TS is perfect fine.

He has HT enabled, your 2500k doesnt have it, without hyper threading the gflops are a bit higher. I dont think his chip is throttling, this works the same way with Bloomfield and GT, no HT= higher gflops..


@ Leefhoofd: Nice job with this thread.

I like the rules you have added.

TMonitor adds unnecessary load. I used it to watch for throttling and my benchmarks consistently take a dive while TMonitor is running.

HT on/off makes a world of difference.. LinX doesn't like hyperthreading

Good point mista admin

Thank Zalbard for the rules mate I just played sort off copy cat


Now let them clocks speak for themselves, no more chit chat, just results with screenshots plz !!!

i7 2600K Batch L039B470.
MSI P67-GD65 Bios V1.8B5
Water, EK Supreme HF Cu

[Leeghoofd]

Thx BulluS, added

[NBF]

Im not sure if it fits in this thread, but wouldnt be nice to state max multi reached also? It seens like its chip related and its an important information for benching.

[Bullu$]

No problem.
Bios is 1.8b5

Strange part is I set it in bios 1.4V, with full load it needed 1.456V. Too much difference I think.

[flesheatinvirus]

Batch L040B208 2600K on water running at 1.370v core bios with level 1 cal enabled at 5G. f6a bios running Prime 95 blend. Torture rack remote liquid cooling system. Max stable multi is 56 so far.

@Leeghoofd

Thanks for doing this. Next time I won't be the first to post.

[OC Nub]

Nice results guys.

Here's my 2600k at 4.5ghz.

Batch#L040B698
1.305vcore bios using LLC1
QPI/VTT 1.10v
PCH Core 1.080
DRam 1.62v
Water Cooling with a little AC

[Leeghoofd]

I must have found the crappy batch already :p 2 2500K CPU's of the same batch. Tested on 3 boards ( 1 Dlx and 2 Pro boards ), will test the GB mobo next week... same boards power the 2600K deadeasy to 4.5 and beyond

So this is Batch L038A789 S/N 2V035198A2553 and S/N 2V035198A5600

One CPU does not post in windows with 4.3, other one stops at 4.4, 4.5 freezes up all the time... no matter the voltages etc... luckily the client only wanted 4ghz stable :p



Keep them results coming lads
