In search of the golden FX57 w/o frost bug @-90C

[Dumo]

Please post your week/steppin code and the lowest evap. temp it can boot/load windows @stock and what cooling / memory type and size.
Also, the highest htt scaled @ teh lowest temp.
Thanks

Heres mine...0516WPMW - 1241482E503XX benched @3.75Ghz @-86/85C load temp. with Redline4000 2x512 @ 221x17. Htt >222....it will freeze at -92C on windows...

0522tpmw -'50572'

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but you just gave your batch code # which is going to be different for every cpu. I think Dumo's looking mainly for the numbers which precede the last 4 digits which identifies the wafer number. Of course there also may be a chance that your wafer # is 50572 in which case I'd be just wasting thread space

i will get new CABCE 0516WPMW very soon and try it out with DI (higher than -90 :| )
but we can guess that it will be like all of the 0516..


dumo i remember that some fxs 57 that run with ln2, that supposed to be lower then -90.

[Dumo]

If I'm not mistaken, 57 first week batch was 0512 then 0513 which went to both fx55BN (core that wont cut 57 specs) and 57 second week batch.
Cupra, most of 57 ran ok @-90C, but with really low htt(maxed @ 219 for my 0516). To be able to run it with >255 htt, evaporator temp can't go below -78.9C. Or we can use acpi multi proc. tweak, but it will be a little 'heat load heavy' for even a cascade.

Does it need to be an FX? i have seen a few 0512MPMW's...bought one myself.

yep, see that one charlie
i get 0516 on ebay for 950$, and other 0516 sold for 990$

Funny thing was that the seller replied it was a retail cpu while all the FX57's from that week are OEM. However, there ARE retail FX55 's with that stepping

that is very simple, he jest put the oem cpu in retail box

but to be serious, the low price of that 0513 cpu was strange - for me anyway, and i find some retail 0516 for 950$ and take it.

That's a good deal for your cpu....I'm still waiting on a cherry picked one from a "friend"

back when i got my retail FX-57 they had both 0513 MPMW oems and retail cpus in OZ, as well as 0516 WPMW retail which i decided on

Retail 0513MPMW 57's?

[freecableguy]

I just sold my 0513 MPMW FX57....guess its too late now, but whats so great about that CPU? I have no cascade so I could care less about some magical -90C cold bug or not...

[eva2000]

Retail 0513MPMW 57's?

yup i had to make a choice and chose 0516 WPMW

[Dumo]

Any 0512 owner? Hows it runnin?
Thanks

[freecableguy]

I have a 0512....

Care to give it a shot? I have never tried it out...

[Sampsa]

I have FX57 (0513MPMW) and FX55 (0512UPAW) CPUs. With Dry Ice I'm able to run FX57 @ 3622 MHz (Heat spreader off) but I haven't been able to run it in 3D above 3650 MHz even with LN2.

Damn, I need a cascade to test CPUs

PS. I'm looking for FX CPU which can do +3800 MHz with LN2

[|-jokker-|]

Hey Sampsa try getting one from´s Kinc´s store .
It owns that fx .
Good Luck with that search

[Supertim0r]

I think Kinc 0512 haven't the coldbug...someone confirm this...

[Dynasty]

Please post your week/steppin code and the lowest evap. temp it can boot/load windows @stock and what cooling / memory type and size.
Also, the highest htt scaled @ teh lowest temp.

0516 WPMW. mem used was BH-5 Mushkin 3500 lvl 2 (2 x 256).
Cooled by:GT/R507/Baker




This was taken after 3D 01 runs.



I love to get an newer revision mousepot and run my FX 57 on it.
This cpu has been great, not to jinx it.

[Dumo]

I think Kinc 0512 haven't the coldbug...someone confirm this...

Imo, all FX57 cold bugged (no higher than 230HTT) when run @ <-85C evap. temp. or equal to-50/-60C cpu core temp. Some peeps can do 250-260 htt with controlling the idle temp.... which is hard with cascade...
