A64 X2 4800+ @ 3 GHz & PCMark04: 8548

PCMark04: 9017

God damnit! 3 points from FUGGER's Intel WR

What clock?

some ln2 might do the trick

[lv_88]

looks great! impressive

[Hombre]

Very nice results indeed. Dual core looks awesome.

[REDKEN]

What vcore are you giving it now?

[kryptobs2000]

Yes but I should still be able to compare power consumption between A64 X2 4800+ and FX-55 if I only change the CPU in the system, right?

makes sense to me.

[Charles Wirth]

Nice!

My 2K4 was also done at a little over 200FSB as I was testing to get past 5Ghz. Dont forget my mobo was very limitd limited and I should have been well over 5Ghz.

Pi's are close and I am sure I can do much better.

[mesyn191]

Sampsa needs to send FUGGER his CPU and mobo so FUGGER can put it on his triple cascade and get that X2 up to 4GHz!!

Naah, I'll be giving it some LN2 treatment in few days.

I have to say that I can do much better also

I tried Pentium EE 840 today with Vapochill LS. I have to say that the experiment was HORRIBLE. I was able to run spi1m @ 4,5 GHz but not PCMark04 even at 4 GHz. Asus Probe showed CPU temp 33C under load and Vapo's LCD showed -32C for evap

Components next to Socket 775 were EXTREMELY hot.

[Sampsa]

Here are my results with Vapochill LS:

[Sampsa]

Power consumption was 440W during PCMark04

My mistake, this is not correct because there was also Vapochill LS between the Antec 550W and wall socket

[macci]

Nice show there Sampsa.

I have a feeling that it will be in better hands here in Finland
Also it's quite obvious that this chip ain't going to see anywhere near 4GHz - no matter what cooling.

[REDKEN]

Thanks for sharing all this info with us Sampsa.:beer:
So, you got to 3.0 @ 1.4v and 3.1 @ 1.55v would it be fair to say that it would scale higher with more vcore? Maybe 3.3-3.4 could be reached with pase.

[zakelwe]

3.1GHz with a Vapo LS is pretty good going actually considering it is 2 cores. FX-55 on single stage phase was at max getting 3.3GHz.

Of course this is one chip so it might be bad or might be good. However AMD bringing out a duel core at only 200Mhz less than FX-55 seems to be replicated with the overclock ( 200Mhz drop ).

Asuming Sampsa's chip is average ( a big IF ) then this is not bad at all and bodes well for the future. I'm actually quite surprised to be honest, I thought x2 would be dire !

I'm still more interested in Dothan and Fx-57 though at present, but I am really looking forward to what Sampsa can do with very few kelvin. You have to think two cores will like few kelvin an awful lot. More so than voltage of course.

Yes, it would be a miracle to hit 4 GHz with this chip

Anyway, I'll try to hunt 10k in PCMark04. I'll also try to find out if this CPU can go higher for 3DMark05 than my FX-55 (3474 MHz),

[mike]

Awesome score! Good luck on your quest to 10k!

[Kunaak]

jesus man, 9 K on PCM'04 and not even 3.1 ghz. thats just crazy...
I can't wait to see what this does under cascades and LN2.

[Charles Wirth]

I had another 2K4 submitted and not published.

http://service.futuremark.com/compare?pcm04=2948934

200FSB on the link above.

[macci]

your score went up by 44MArks (9003 => 9047) when you overclocked from 4351MHz to 4817MHz??
Is this the new dual-core scaling or what??

[Charles Wirth]

no from 4.669Ghz to 4.8Ghz about 140Mhz gain in speed. The 4.66 was at 333FSB 1:1 3-2-2

[mesyn191]

Man you guys are lucky, I've only ever gotten a good OC once waay back with a Palimino 1700+ @ 2Ghz stable on water.

Even with my VapoLS I can't break 2.8Ghz stable with my A64 3500+ and you guys got the friggin' 3Ghz dual core A64 and 3.45Ghz FX55!?!

\must be cuz of the cold weather in Finland...

[macci]

Fugger, what do you mean 'no'?
you've got a score of 9003 at 4351MHz and 9047 at 4817MHz. Obviously also 9020 at 4668MHz.
So looks like upping the CPU spee doesn't help much there.
