E8600 + different boards

**Harshal** · 09-10-2008, 07:37 AM

Ok so I got the new one even though I really didn't want to buy it.. I know I know sign of a weak mind

So here we go!
Day 1 Hardware:
Intel E8600 [Q820AXXX]
Gigabyte EP45T-Extreme
Gigabyte 9600GT [Turboforce - fanless | NO VMODS]
OCZ Plat 1600EB
7200.9 160GB
Silverstone DA-1000
Benq 19" LCD

Cooling:
LN2 with Astra on CPU and Tek-9 4.0 on GPU.

OS was a little bit stripped WinXP.

Some results I would like to share:
3DM01

3DM03

http://www.hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=770403

3DM05

http://www.hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=770405

Aquamark 3

http://www.hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=770407

Super Pi MOD

CPU-Z Validation

Observation:
First the board, I think the board I have is not really friendly. I mean with E8400 it couldn't boot more then 555FSB. With E8600 I have got it going in windows @ 580. Anything high it will crash while loading.
Now the Graphic card, honestly I think if I don't run LN2 on GFX and just use chilled-liquid cooling.. I can manage same. The card is cold-bugged at -60C, hence I could not push it high enough to take the top spots:p Also I did not use the GamerHUD utility and still card worked fine till 870 for 3D01 and 860 for others. Strange thing for me was 3DM03... I mean I thought I could go higher but during GT2 @ one point before ending it would slow down drastically and that will give lower score

I think 48K was possible. May be some other day and driver will make the cut.

Many thanks to Gigabyte and Silverstone for support

Day 2
Hardware:
Intel E8600
Foxconn BlackOps
Kingston 14400 CL9
XFX 6600GT
7200.9 160GB
Benq 19" LCD

Cooling:
ASTRA on CPU
Stock cooling on XFX 6600GT
120mm on RAM

Since I got about 6-7 liters left of my 30liter. I decided to try the chips pure clocking. I had the chip @ 1.799V [Real] and booted right @ 580FSB with not so scary volts on vPLL and VTT

This session only lasted 80mins as I wasted some time on Pi32M @ 5600.
Well here are the scores:

Super Pi 1M

http://www.hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=770678
Haha I did not notice the screen tear untill I uploaded it on HWBOT.. well I guess it can count as everything needed can be seen

Super Pi 32M

http://www.hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=770680

Offcourse the CPU-Z validation

When I get more LN2 I wish to update this post for sure. I feel like the chip has 620-630FSB in it with more time to play with settings on this superb board.

DAY 3 Hardware:
Intel E8600
DFI P45 DK T2RS [Many thanks to DFI]
Corsair PC9136C5D [Many thanks to Corsair]
XFX 6600GT
7200.9 160GB
Benq 19" LCD
Silverstone DA-1000 [Many thanks to Silverstone]

Cooling:
ASTRA on CPU
Stock cooling on XFX 6600GT
120mm on RAM

Since my ram wil not really clock that well on this board. I had no option to cut the session short. I rather save my limited quantity of LN2 for one more run on BlackOps.

Result:
Super Pi

CPU-Z Validation

Thank you all.

Very impressive run there on the Blackops

. The CPU seem to have a little more headroom, just need time i guess, but that you might have already known.

**ZoLKoRn** · 09-10-2008, 08:21 AM

Nice run m8, look like Spi very fast on BlackOps

waiting to see more

**~~TheKarmakazi~~** · 09-10-2008, 08:44 AM

nice work! waiting to see some results on the DFI board too. Is it DFI Dark?

**Harshal** · 09-10-2008, 10:13 AM

Nope man, its DFI P45 DK T2RS Plus. I hope to get good results with Corsair PC9136C5D OR Team Xtreem PC5300 ram kits I have with me. I think I have damaged my Crucials PC8000 while doing mad dash to 525MHz 3-3-3-XX

@ Zolkorn, thanks bro!!

@ ANP, dude you already know it off THL thread

**andre X_X** · 09-10-2008, 10:20 AM

that pi1m at 6.1ghz is quite fast bro

.... really nice numbers, you got nice E8600 too.

**vagos** · 09-10-2008, 11:38 AM

Very impressive fsb for blackops! Congrats!!

**Nosfer@tu** · 09-10-2008, 01:50 PM

GREAT WORK m8

VERY IMPRESSIVE

How much ln2 was spent on those runs ?

**Oliver** · 09-10-2008, 01:57 PM

Looks good hars, seems like you got the post sorted out and up

peter i reckon 30 liter, after what he state

**PcCI2iminal** · 09-11-2008, 05:48 AM

thx for sharing the scores Harshal and keep pushing

**Benny Lodewijk** · 09-11-2008, 05:55 AM

Great m8... very fast and neat chip you got there.

**Harshal** · 09-11-2008, 12:25 PM

Thanks guys

I will update soon... when I get more LN2.. as right now.. I am ZERO $$$$ wise

**fasttruck860** · 09-11-2008, 05:43 PM

Nice numbers and nice to see a mix of boards tested here.

**emo** · 09-11-2008, 11:54 PM

Congrat. Black Ops really do great result. Looking forward on the DFI.

**makaka** · 09-12-2008, 01:13 PM

Nice work

**x2s3w4** · 09-12-2008, 04:28 PM

That's the same E8600??!!!
5.8Ghz at 1.7 volts on Gigabyte and 6.1Ghz at 1.2 volts on Foxconn Black ops???!!!

1.74V on gigabyte and 1.8V on Foxconn

Here's a screenshot from post#2.

Did CPUz read the voltage wrong or is your chip that good.

**Harshal** · 09-14-2008, 12:51 AM

I have mentioned that VCORE was 1.79V. CPU-Z cant read exact info on Foxconn boards. Its a silly CPU-Z + Foxconn error

**Harshal** · 10-10-2008, 10:32 AM

Will properly update the thread soon

For now I have this:
Intel E8600
DFI P45 DK T2RS PLUS [Many thanks to DFI]
Crucial Ballistix Tracer PC8500 [Thanks Z]
XFX 6600GT
7200.9 160GB SATA
Benq 19" LCD
Silverstone DA-1000 [Many thanks to Silverstone]

AIR COOLING: Intel (Xeon-3040) Stock cooler with 120MM + 120mm on RAM

Ambient Temp: 26c [Air-Con]
For some reasons I cant boot @ 600. So 560FSB boot and then SetFSB

BTW, My first post with P45 higher then 610FSB done with EP45-DS3R

**Pcuser** · 10-10-2008, 01:00 PM

Nice work

The DFI board should be able to pull some good fsb numbers

harshal Very good FSB on BlackOps........

Nice works friend

**knopflerbruce** · 10-11-2008, 10:41 AM

The DFI board, it's the non-PLUS...? I wonder if they solved the FSB limitations on that one
