Phenom 9500 w/ MSI K9A2 Platinum

[justapost]

1.280v idle does 2.507GHz very easily without much idling power increase [27W].
Also onboard GFX clocks are picked up wrongly, basically, the Default clock is the real-time clock. Check CCC for real clocks i.e. (running 450/400 here)



I'm running that for about 28 hours now without problems, even gaming, 3 hour multimedia decoding and benchmarks.

Congrats, your onpar with the Mobility Radeon 9600 now:

Will edit to add 2k6 score...

EDIT:

Slight improvement.

CBID seems to show current wattage very accurately....

I wonder what register the software is reading, skimming over the BKDG atm and looking for current amps. I saw that the itc sensor chip on the M3A has an amp sensor pin beside ones for cpu, nb voltage etc, so it might be possible to read the amps via i2c/smbus.

EDIT: This just reflects the limit for the current p-state and not the current used value.
