Everything about INTEL IVYBRIDGE...

[trans am]

I thought it was the 23rd (my birthday)

[SoF]

today it was more or less officially announced it will be the 23rd - so yes, might be on your bday then

[Viss]

31-03-2012 VR-Zone posted it would be 23rd.

[SoF]

05-04-2012 me signed sales-launch 29-04-2012
also still not so clear if 23-04 is only review-launch or also sales-launch.
there is total confusion in Germany about that - shops popping up with offers, dissappear, cancel orders, partly send out, partly set "on hold" - a total mess ^^

So I need to stick, to what I was told - can't always yell around what others say even they are not wrong

[tom1]

well and good video on Youtube

[SoF]

more leakage...first "unable" aircoolers reporting "Ivy get's damn hot"...well if you push 1.4V @4.5GHZ sure it will do...
I am not testing on air usually but that got me started...

4 GHZ @1.02V @55°C full prime stable - I call it "hot" due to the low Vcore, not due to the temperature...I have 65+ on my 6 core AMD on 3.6 @1.35V....huh?

4.4 GHZ @1.3V @80°C full prime stable - yeah call it hot, just because you pump in hilarious voltage never meant for the chip...

I can do 4.4 @1.2V flat with max ~70°C...have you ever had a look on your GPU the last 5 years ?!?!?!?!?!

SB was the absolute end of classical "2D transistors" - they have been so much maxed out, not even temperature helped to go higher...and now people complain you need LN2 for 6.5+ (which was NEVER reached by Sandy...) - seriously get back to school and learn about transistor technology...

[Leeghoofd]

getting even better results here Chris, but nothing over the magical barrier during prime95, temps way too high already a few hundred mhz below...

[SoF]

while talking about "hundreds mhz below" ... on cascade running 06 or even booting all cores --> need special chip?
Will talk more about it in a week

Just can't believe I don't have 06 score here after more than 20 hours under cascade....

[SoF]

And so it begins...

Some print magazine in Germany publishes his newspaper tomorrow - due to logstic reasons some abo owners have now access to the full printed article.
This of course went round the net in seconds, even it is not allowed to be copied 1:1. So here is the text info and original source and the upcoming AwardFabrik-links for midnight...

AwardFabrik Review-Links up (again) at six:

SoF's complete OC-review



stummerwinter's first LN2 run and 3570K vs. 3770K comparison

asus & gigabyte mainboards as well as zotac ITX with IB also upcoming - check AF-mainpage the next hours...

[Leeghoofd]

Great work lads, seems you have found some decent retails Chris... best ES here so far 6400Mhz :p

[SoF]

we have a bunch of potential 6.5+ chips all week 6 this year...neeeeed LN2 here

[Leeghoofd]

wow that suicide is on Cascade ?

[SoF]

Magic 6!
(need good cascade with -100°C!!!)

-80°C cascade or DICE will max you around 5900 unless you have a real cherry of the first retails.

screen in post #34 is on LN2 ofc...

[sin0822]

your tiem midnight tonight is what time my midnight?

[SoF]

Press F5!!!!

[Don_Dan]

Still 30 minutes to go...

[Hondacity]

fffff5~ lol

[SoF]

Baaaam!

[Hondacity]

nada! nein review!

post #34 for links

[SoF]

Prime the xtreme-style

[M.Beier]

What cooling is used for that prime95?
Also please use custom 12-12

But more important, get on msn ASAP

[SoF]
