Ricky and Pedro Rocha bench session FX55@3867Mhz

[Pedro Rocha]

Finally, with a completely rebuild cascades, we start the bench.

Here is a photo of the bench lab



17Kg of 99,9% pure ethylene to play with :


Board and CPU ready to start :


And the first result :



I think it is a new WR but I think we can get more than 3.900Mhz with this setup.

Ufortunately the board is quite unstable, maybe because it is an RA00 revision so I'm gonna to try to change it for a new revision today..

That stops us to have a perfect run for the our primary target : Numero Uno in 3DMark2001, of course

An all tests 3600mhz + run in 3Dmark2001, seems quite feasible with this FX55 and cascades... as alaways Ricky have done a fantastic job : even at 1.9v the CPU never pass -95ºC ..being at near -100ºC most of the time ..

More results in the next days
