A little birdie told me...

TBH Sami was supposed to do this event. Complications that I'm not at liberty to discuss came into play. I had very short notice went 36 hours no sleep before I arrived and then crammed in 12 hours of testing. Considering the circumstances AMD appeared to be satisfied with what I accomplished. I on the other hand know I can do better.

Anyway as I said when I left I will always be there for AMD. They have always treated me good and this time was no exception. Every trip I have been treated as part of the team. Thanks again AMD. Special thanks to James,Matt,Sami,Chris just to name a few.

So, back in the game for some time :-)? I hope u will be in sometimes. Looking forward for results aster Nda (soon)

[Don_Dan]

By the way, welcome back Brian!

Uh o Dave's trying to call me. Edits phone# a?d msid real quick. Hah my phone no worka now. Dave what's your cell #? Ill borrow yours and interupt your service for a little while. Many ear drums will be spared during his downtime.

Seems good this . Few days.

Few days.

Really?

Yes!

Jeebus. What's the power draw on that thing?

[chew*]

They asked me how i got into ocing. Quake engine helped out quite a bit. It was preety demanding at the time. I couldn't link them to this due to content however.

From a clan match before i joined the clan bloodline and made it to quakecon and won.

Really?

OOoooOOOoOooOOoooooOOkay.

I want proof of all 8 cores at 8.7 GHz or I think ASUS should fix the misleading article.

[chew*]

Cpu-z = 8 cores enabled. Cheers.

Asus source = AMD = Sami/Stilt

Gonna call someone out better make sure before you speak.

I really don't think you read what I said the right way or misread my tone or something. Maybe I forgot you like to fire shots just because don't like me since I remind you of your son?

8 cores enabled doesn't mean 8 cores are running the validated frequency, and I wasn't calling bull on the result.

I wasn't "calling anybody out", I was saying that the article seemed to imply that all 8 cores were running at validation frequency and everybody knows it's rather improbable that all 8 cores were idle at 8.72 GHz, no?

Update: We missed Andre Yang’s 8794MHz FX-8150 result (also on Crosshair V Formula-Z), however Andre’s result uses 2/8 cores, whereas Stilt managed to push all 8 of the FX-8370 cores up past 8GHz, which is still a tremendous result and certainly the fastest 8-core CPU!

Slightly misleading, no?

I don't really understand the harshness of your tone every time you reply to me. It's been a few years, and I'm not a retard, Brian.

[FlanK3r]

its not bug. But yes, its different way. Im Asus enthusiast, so 90% of my boards are Asus (and not for sale ).

You can still shutdown the modules as you can. It can help you a bit. But ussually Im lazy and finding the best module with PScheck. I have active all cores, but they are at lower P-state (exmaple I leave it at around 3-5 GHz with LN2). The others two are at validation frequency.

PS: nice, not only me is playing Quake :-). Im still more or less active in Quakelive game

Well it kind of seems this go around you are questioning the record just to do so. Im not saying thats what you ARE doing, just how you come off ATM.

Exactly. To do so against individuals with some of the highest credibility in the game is rather insulting. My 2 cents.

Afaik all 8 were @ 8.7. Fwiw they have bench scores all cores

[ShrimpBrime]

Congratulations Mr. The Stilt! Very impressive indeed!

EDIT: Now can I de-lid it for you??

[Buckeye]

<yawn> just got up and on first cup of coffee... looks around

I know sometimes text or form posts can be read the wrong way, or sound like something that was not intended. If we can try and keep things civil in this that would be great.

Carry on and be respectful

[Ace123]

I know. Sometimes its better to just talk it out and explain to a guy what things look like from a 3rd person view. Its amazing what a first person shooter can look like if one can zoom out and see the entire battle for what it is.

[STEvil]

... great, now I want to play some Quake 3 lol

But I wasn't, so don't say I was? Though I'm sorry if it looked that way to you?
If you knew me, you know I wouldn't question any of those guys about legitimacy of results. It's just that the way the ASUS article was written, it was centered around a CPU-Z valid and we all know how CPU-Z works.

The number of cores enabled do not matter for this argument as far as CPU-Z goes. 8 cores could be enabled, but for the valid, hell, 6 of them could have been running 1800 MHz. The ASUS article made it seem like all were 8.7 which goes against normal procedure when highest frequency is only necessary on 1(2) cores...It's not rocket science, the valid is taken on whatever core you choose to take it on regardless of how many cores are actually running...Having bench scores on all cores is one thing. Pushing for max CPU-Z (and I'm sure there are backups?) usually all cores obviously wouldn't be "pushed" like the article said...

What I really meant was that the article seemed to make it look like all the cores were at 8.7 (or close), which makes zero sense for a CPU-Z valid. That's why I called the article misleading. When I asked for "proof", it was a lighthearted question, not really to make anyone butthurt or claim the 8.7 was bull. There wasn't even anything to claim against, a CPU-Z valid is a CPU-Z valid... and I know quite well what The Stilt and Macci are capable of, obviously. I'm not stupid.

There was never any intent to cause so much drama and if you thought I was calling them out, you should know I would never do such a thing. And if the CPU is capable of 8.7 on all cores, I hope it lives forever and spawns many nice results.

I have active all cores, but they are at lower P-state (exmaple I leave it at around 3-5 GHz with LN2). The others two are at validation frequency.

This.
This is usually what occurs, no?
The ASUS article seemed to claim this wasn't happening (ie. All cores "pushed") where there was nothing to base the info off of due to the nature of CPU-Z's validation process.

If it wasn't, that's cool! 8.7 on 8 cores is really cool! What a freak CPU... I just wanted to see that, or maybe ASUS should re-word their article to be less confusing or misleading.

All of which has nothing to do with calling out the actual result.

Well it kind of seems this go around you are questioning the record just to do so. Im not saying thats what you ARE doing, just how you come off ATM.

I think if you look at the article I was questioning and the wording of said article combined with the fact that the article is centered around a CPU-Z validation you'll see that I'm not questioning the record at all. 8 cores enabled with 2 cores pushed and 8 cores pushed to validated frequency are two different things. Normal benching logic would say the first case occurred hence why I called the article misleading. If the second case occurred, then it's a monster of a CPU and the guys should be really happy and proud, but I wasn't questioning any record, that's silly.

Context matters.

[FlanK3r]

Beep: the same you can do with some Intel CPUs, you jump only the ebst core with others core active. But still is harder to get 4CU/8C to some validation process than 1CU/2C BIOS settings.
Btw, noone know if Stilt did it with all cores or with the best CU. Look at this monster, this CPU has cores very balanced, difference between cores is only around 40 MHz.


And sometimes you have chips, where are big differences. Example my dead FX-9590. With ln2 almost 1 GHz between cores, not good chip for hard test because the weakest module was crap. Moreovber, the CPUZ validation process is different than year before. Now you must hold the frequency around 4s without crash otherwise your validation file will be not fine for valdiation.
