Phenom 9850 BE @ 3570Mhz with CrossHair2 Formula

[GIZER]

Great clock littleboy, just good to see this chip getting higher every week

[aGeoM]

Everyone Thanks a lot.

test cpu's core is 4 cores. i don't test the cpu with one core.

Bios chip is solder on mobo.

I am going to post the batch code later. 3DMark06 test too..

littleBoy, for AMD Overdrive try 2.0.9 it worked before in my ASUS M2N32-DLX.

[KTE]

Well, according to the technical specification each core can operate on its own internal frequency. Is that fact a barrier to validate a snapshot?

It can but it gets rejected for validation unless they're all alike

Good Phenom you have there mate and thanks for the info

Max NB?
Max HT?

Why did you use wPrime 1.61?
It's slow and neither official, use v1.55 and that should be sub 11s I'm thinking.

[prostoman]

Littleboy, nice overclock, but... maybe I am blind or something, since nobody asked about it yet.

What voltage do you need to get to 3570MHz?

And what are the temps? I see you watercooled you chip, is that water like.... extra cool?

[BrowncoatGR]

I does seem that its for sale now here. One etailer has it in stock. So it wasn't canceled. I wonder why Asus took it down from their website though. One question. Does this board support Power State Inspector? If yes i;d really like to see a Power consumption comparion for Phenom with a 790FX board

[KTE]

^ Highly doubt it.. those who have it usually boast about it on the first marketing line

i.e. ASRock boards.

If I'm not blind CPU-Z shows 1.300v

[KTE]

I think so, every time I overclock with AOD, cpuz rejects my oc, even if it is the same freq at all the cores.

Yeah its a a known problem, happens for me too. Just forward it to Franck and let him check your files out, most this way are valid.

I can validate with CPU-z with the cores clocked differently. The following validation validated Core0 (which was the highest of the 4) at 3200, The other three were as follows: Core1-3100, Core2-2900. Core3-3000.

Hmm.. first time I've seen it and it wrongly says 3200 on all cores. Its never worked for me this way, ever, on that board too - anything different you're doing?

If I am I have no idea what it is.

3570Mhz vcore is 1.48v.
else voltage set auto.

I will try it on my mobo.

[bingo13]

Does the Nvidia bios allow you to disable cores?

Yes, and it actually works..

[Oldguy932]

Just looked at the asus site and now they have a manual in French as well. I really can't wait for this board to come out...

[CoolioCat]

My Asus supplier has loads of em in stock, expensive though I'm just not sure I can justify these sort of expensive motherboards anymore. In $ you are talking $340 inc. shipping, roughly (once converted from &#163

Asus have it listed on their site here

Thought we could compare...this is Crossfire X 3870x2's



Will run off a single card also...just thinking the price of the Crosshair + card could equal 790fx with 2 cards and get you a faster system

Edit: ran off a singe card...seems I still win

[Dagalidis]

3700 with a Phenom is fantastic i can say...
Still coldbug chips ?

[OBR]

i love my Crosshire II Formula too, is best mobo for Phenom today ...

Thats a bold statement, why not prove why for us

Remember HTT clocking is ONLY useful for getting ram speed where you want it, it adds no performance as you are just manipulating overall HT which is used to decide processor clock speed.

So If the Crosshair is so good, show us why ?

[KTE]

^ Agreed, I'd like to see why its the best.

Sorry NDA lifts 6.5.2008 ... nothing before this date

then perhaps you all should stop posting info about it all, seems you already technically violated NDAs. but what do i know?

[Rammsteiner]

I know prolly as much as you do,

but AFAIK it's not forbidden to show pics. After all those pics are already available on Asus site I think.

I think it's not allowed to show technical information, results in benchmarks compared to other components. But as you said, what do I know?

well, i think pics do violate NDAs, and AFAIK those pics, are not availble anywhere, let alone on asus's site, i've been looking....

A faster system at 3dmark. if you really wanna bench 3dmark you wouldn't even be considering an AMD cpu anyway.
