What's TIM?

Thermal interface material

It's all good 3306mHz under DI, 26s superPi at 3106...

cool beans!

On Zalman 7000Cu
1. No jumping off to High CPU/FSB off the bat (burning in @ 10x260 to get something stable.)
2. BW is attrocious compared to my 9x300 winnie.
3. First tests don't imply any capability for signicantly tighter timings @ a given speed.

Time and water will tell but...
My gut tells me that this may be a below average chip instead of the wonder chips you have all been showing

I've just received my DFI SLI-DR and my Gskill 4800 FF,
Now I'm just waiting for my 3700+ San diego,
Which is the best bios version to use in the DFI ?

[dexth77]

Thermal interface material

That means AS5 or stuffs like that right?
Well, I figured out the problem, it seems like the bios version higer than 1.36 is giving me roughly about ~10C higher temps, i've tried 1.41, 1.5, 1.62, 1.8...kind of strange...not i'm back around 31C idle/48C load at 1.6v with 1.36mod.

Thanks.

I ordered a 3700+ san diego today from overclockers.co.uk. Hope they delivers fast to sweden

[wickedld9]

Anyone on air seeing strange things with 12x multi? With my 4000+ at 225*12 1.45v it won't boot but 245*11, 270*12, and 300*9 all boot without issue.

I also noticed that this thing runs just a little warmer than my Winchester at the same clock speeds. Even with the Winchester having higher volts. Maybe I should take her top off....

I'll have some water results tonight.

[uwackme]

Ordered 2 3700+'s from Monarch, Ill be sticking with air for a while.

Anyone yet to push 4x 512M sticks to the limits?

[wickedld9]

Forgot to mention that I tried 4x512 TwinMOS "AA4T" last night and it failed to boot even after clearing the CMOS. It would boot with only 1-3 or 2-4 but not all 4 dimms.
I'll try to get my hands on 4 sticks of some TCCD's tonight.

[NotoriousMike]

Yes, AS5 will be an example.

Charlie, you said on the oc results thread that you are not on phasechange? how are you getting those temps then? Im assuming some awesome waterchiller setup.

Also, b518 why are your temps so high? I can only assume your case ambiet air is warm becuase you live in Hawaii. LUCKY .

@ not. mike:
DI = Dry Ice (charlies favorite cooling fun )

Can anybody please answer the question I asked a few posts ago about the bios version for the DFI SLI-DR and the San Diego with the Gskill 4800 FF ?

I think Oskars beta bios 414-1, 414-2 & 414-3 support venice, san diego.

The 414-3 BIOS works great for me with my Winbond UTT and 4000+ San Diego.

[PicaXuu]

Isn't the 414-1 a better choice for me because my mems are TCCD ?

[Eldonko]

32m SuperPI at 2805mhz 26min 29sec

Thank you

[Eldonko]

414-3 is just the changes from 414-1 and 414-2 combined isnt it? BTW where did you get the FF? :O

I'm looking for stable 24/7 so none of the screen shots are suicide. I got the chip Monday but Just started playing with it tonight. I will try to do some prime tonight but so far have not been able to get 10x283 prime stable. Passes everything else though so not too far away. I'll take the IHS off this weekend I'm sure.

Ran it last night at 9x300 @ 1.52v which was prime stable for 4 hours, that will probably be what I run it at 24/7.

Just to let you know, my previous voltage setting passed prime for a little over 5 hours then failed. Your setting may not be 100% stable if that's what you're looking for.

I don't think 10x283 is going to be prime stable with the XP120, maybe with the IHS off or a higher cfm fan.

9x300 is definetly prime stable, ran it last night. I can't get my memory to be stable 100% at anything above 302 (same thing as with my Winnie) I blamed it on the controller but IMO its the memory now. So I'll probably settle for 2700mhz 9x300 (same as my Winnie) for 24/7. Plus it does 2700mhz at 1.55v instead of the 1.66 I have to run it at for 2800mhz.

It's all good 3306mHz under DI, 26s superPi at 3106...

cool beans!

I'd say very cool beans!

[pershoot]

letting you all know that monarch should be getting in retail SD's in a few days. i emailed them inquiring about my OEM part (the 6th was posted on the site when i ordered, and now it says 19th for OEM), and they said they may upgrade me to retail. good on them

[Gsus_Freak]

charlie

is that gamming stable? Is it prime stable? What temps are you at, and what is your cooling solution?

That is some great stuff. I might just break down and get one. Have it be my gaming rig and have the dualy be my work machine.

But want to hear how your cooling it first, I dont have phase change yet, that is a while off.

Dry ice.

[Gsus_Freak]

ouch...thats some cold styff right there

If I am not mistaken, isn't 4 ght the record for an amd? I wonder if it is posible to get the SD that far, I have high hopes. Think I might just order one tommorw. (thanks conrad )

Nice , What are you doing about the cold bug ?
