Very nice, so it's capable of 4Ghz on air.
This will be my next chip in a month

[HeadOn]

Would 1.57vcore be okay 24/7?

4Ghz Orthos Stable Yummy

[rbsmontemor]

OMG!!

Waiting for more, Victor!

Rbs.

Hum Orthos seems to have a bug it detects 4500Mhz:p amazing results

[Supertim0r]

damn ! 4ghz prime stable

could you monitor the temp with Coretemp ? Just wanna compare with Asus utility...

[erwinz]

G0 is very very nice..

waaaaa..... its the time for 4GHZ prime stability.. very nice intel chips..

[Envydia007]

that could be a 77C in Core temps?

[Danger30Q]

Any idea if other revisions besides the G0 will clock similar? I ask because I don't know if there is anything besides G0. Don't want to get stuck ordering and get some sucky revision.

Orthos does not check if the multiplier was lowered, it assumes it remains unchanged and only looks at the FSB, hence the difference.

G0 IS the newest revision, and the only one that's been clocking to 4GHz on air without suicidal voltages.

H'mm nice but I'm not that impressed with the temps & voltage needed to achieve it i.e. 1.57v & 69c. . . any chance of using TAT?

[XtremeTiramisu]

Asus Probe reads 68~69 degrees so that would be at least 75c + at the core.
It's considering on the hotter side even for quad cores. But keep in mind that ambient temp is also a very important role here considering he's testing 4Ghz on air with a Tuniq Tower 120. I'm preety certain that his location is in Taiwan by looking at his language version os XP in Tranditional Chinese so ambient temp over there is at least 30+ degrees 24/7. Even in western Canada here, the temp during the day gets up to 29 degrees and 22 degrees by midnight. My Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme is having a hard timing keeping my E6700 at ~3760mhz and my Orthos isn't 8+ hours stables now for some reasons...

I also presume that both of his Tuniq Tower 120 and the E6850 IHS aren't lapped so thus higher temps than what you'll see from some lapped results.

ok so its stable for 11 minutes of orthos run.. Umm hoping your testing this for at least a full day.

regardless. I want this over a quad

[Solarfall]

stating the obvious.. this is one kick ass chip.. omg

[AndreYang]

Low voltage 4G no problem

[1badhabit]

Very nice, keep it coming. Subscribed!!

[OBR]

G0 is last chance for Dual cores ... and great!

I want to see G0 Quads ...

[rbsmontemor]

Subscribed too. Victor...CoreTemp please

Rbs.

[M3kk]

Low voltage 4G no problem

Run Small FFTs..

[OBR]

My ES 6850 is 4GHz Orthos stable for 8 hours with no problems ...
It is great to see, retail cpus are the same ...

[Envydia007]

Im impressed! Got me thinking

[erwinz]

Low voltage 4G no problem

G0

intel up coming processors..

[ziddey]

much better voltage

as for g0 quads, they do exist, obr, although current results are es

m3kk, i've personally found large to be more suited. i've had overclock pass 27 hours small fft but have random reboots with large/blend. sure, it throws ram/chipset into the mix a bit more
