600MHz+ FSB Benching session Gigabyte X38-DQ6 + E6750 + Corsair PC10000 + SS Phase

[dinos22]

Hi guys

Well well well. I was going to get a good night's sleep as i was flying to Melbourne for the Melbourne Cup and all.....but i got a CPU in mail Monday and just looking at that shiny L720A batch for this E6750 made me test for just 10 minutes >>>>> NOT

It turned into a 5 hour session in the end LOL >> yup no sleep and flying out REALLY early in the morning


oh btw >> IF ANYONE HAS 550+ FSB benchable CPUs of any kind please PM ME

Let's cut to the chase



TEST SETUP

• Gigabyte GA-X38-DQ6 (DDR2) Motherboard F3 bios
• 2GB kit Corsair Dominator PC10000 DDR2 RAM
• Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 L720Axxx CPU
• PCI nvidia MX400 GFX card
• Blackbox SS Rotary Phase Change
• 80GB SATA Maxtor HDD
• 620W Corsair HX620 PSU
• Windows XP Pro 32-bit

I don't know what's sicker here. This motherboard, CPU, RAM or SS cooler w00t

19-23C Ambient Temps during testing

In case you were wondering about magic setups in bios >> well it was very simple >> ONLY ADD volts to components if they respond to it. That is the best advice i can give you. It is time consuming but you will reap the rewards when done right and since every setup is different there is not much point copying settings

Here is what i ended up collecting off the HDD in the end:

CPUz Verification:

PiFast 19.41s
@4839Mhz 1.64v
> 605Mhz FSB
> 4-4-4-8 Timings on RAM with 2.43v
> -46C Load on evap (-48C Idle)



1M SuperPi 10.359s
@4868Mhz 1.69v

@ 4750Mhz 1.63V Load
> 593.6Mhz FSB
> 4-4-4-8 Timings on RAM with 2.43v
>>> load temps on CPU were -14C and evap -45C >>> even at 4842Mhz 1.69 Load it was a degree difference only but it would just shut down at around 75% of the benchmark LOL




32M wPrime 17.891s
@ 4835Mhz 1.69V Load
> 604.4Mhz FSB
> 4-4-4-8 Timings on RAM with 2.43v
>>> load temps on CPU were -15C and evap -45.5C






Great little CPU this one is
