Strong retail Clarkbar :)

[miahallen]

Back from vacation, and I just had my first benching session last night...feels good

Retail CPU at -145C or below, on a P55A-UD7

When I first tested this CPU on the UD3R, I had cold bug at about -164C. First test on the UD7 proved to be about the same. On the final run I was running full pot and found zero CB ...the only thing that changed was an update to F4 BIOS CBB at -120 to -135C depending on Vcore

CPU clocks are strong, but this thing has to have the weakest DMI bus on the planet, any setting over x12 fails to post
update - figured out my DMI problems, see the updates

First Run (latter scores were better):



Updated scores:

Nicely done miah, 6.7GHz retail chip is definitely something

Do you think that there's room for improvement ?

[ZoLKoRn]

nice start miahallen and nice chip too, congrats bro

[Gautam]

Nice job Miah, esp considering the qpi bottleneck

[Brian y.]

very nice work Mia

[Splave]

looks like you have the opposite of me! Mine maxes 6.35ghz for spi1m but 5.1qpi

Im jealous!

[miahallen]

Thanks guys....if I can get the top secret BIOS with special sauce from hicookie...there may be some room for improvement...but unless I can figure out how to get this darn DMI running faster, the improvement will be minimal

[diezel]

6.7GHz retail chip thats good

[scooter.jay]

Nice clocks mia i hope you can get better qpi as then some nice scores will be on the cards

[jabski]

very nice congrats

[miahallen]

Thanks guys

I had 4L left over from the other night....just enough to figure out my DMI problems

[Splave]

what did you change, nice work!

[miahallen]

the multi

I was reading elsewhere hicookie saying that the chips are finicky and only like some multies....he was right

[George_o/c]

Glad you got over that problem miah! Now let's see this chip fly sky-high

[miahallen]

if I can get the top secret BIOS with special sauce from hicookie...there may be some room for improvement

Got it Will try again next week

[loopy83]

Nice mate.... Some problems with CB because higher QPI?
But nice improvements

[miahallen]

No, actually...CBB got better , I cold booted down to -150C no problem...my first session forced me to boot at -120C or warmer

[hiwa]

nice runs mia and good retail chip

[miahallen]

Thanks hiwa...now if I could only get access to the ES chips you guys play with........

That 32M run is highest retail Clarkdale according to the bot

[hiwa]

Thanks hiwa...now if I could only get access to the ES chips you guys play with........

i play retail too all my 3ds done with retail chip

[SoF]

good to see it can do high QPI also was it related to cold or how could you sort it out?
btw 6.500s flat low clock challenge anyone?! (done on MIIIF)

[miahallen]

Saw that before...nice eff

My SPI eff has never been great

[scooter.jay]

Glad to see you got it sorted waiting for scores

[SoF]

with a bit higher bclk I am sure you will match me win xp sp3 or server one?

[miahallen]

XP SP3...I'll do my best
