AMD FX Series on non 9xx mobos

[duron]

since I already have an AM3+ ready mobo why not try out the new BD proc on a non 9xxx series mobo. i just got me an FX-6100 for my ASrock icafe870 R2.0 with Bios 1.4, power supply is only 4 phase.

I can say that all my games ran as smooth as chiz-wiz which where all above 60fps except for battlefield LA which was 110fps. This is the only time I played COD-Black ops without any stutter or lag previous proc was an unlocked 555 + X-fire 4890

FX-6100 + 8gb RJ


the HSF used


bios shot OC'd


Temp shows after a few runs & reboot


settings for C&Q & the like are disabbled but CPU-Z shows no load state


1.387V will be ok but random hangs BSD will occur when running some games

[duron]

I wonder why they don't show the same value, chip set limitations?


cpu seems to use C&Q although it is off in BIOS


when running a burn-in test


CPU-Z


RAM OC'D

although i don't use my PC for benchmark here's a few

where'd the extra L1 cache come from lol ?

CPU-Z

Thanks for this.
now on to UCC settings

ASRock lower model is favorites for Internet / Game Cafe' in Thailand

UCC was there when using a Phenom/ Athlon CPU but was gone when I snapped on an FX chip - "maybe" on latter Bios update? wishful thinking

I kinda figured that.

still wondering why you have 480Kbytes of L1 cache
according to cpu-z it should only be 288Kbytes
the bios is reading it 66% more.

Maybe his BIOS misread 6 x 64KB instruction cache.

I guess i just have to wait for the next BIOS update then
oh look the lowly mobo went inside windows @ 5Ghz @ 1.5875 but wouldn't boot @ 1.6V - what gives?

[duron]

For more reference, just installed a fresh Win7 64 @ 8gig Ram

mmx using HWinfo benchmark


fpu


cpu


cachemem


weird CB @ single core, usually around 0.75~0.85 score here


CB @ full screen with CPUz & Temp readings, BTW ambient was around 22•c

5+ghz on Air @ ambient 22•c

runs most windows apps except benchmarks(@4.8ghz all ok)


tried to run CB11.5 but the temp rose to 60•c then all stop, better cooling might help?

Nice one on Air, that is very good stuff..

@5000mhz with 1800mhz ram @ 2T and higher NB gave me the best results..After 1800mhzRam and 2600nb ram starts to show no gains on mine.
Ill try lower clocks and see what i come up with Nb wise.

[duron]

WOW! 10 years & my board is still kicking with almost 24-7 power on!

I miss the good ol OC'ing days, actually I haven't update my pc since then, just went to a phenom 955 lol
