Retail AMD Phenom II X4 (Deneb) OC spotted

Note that it's NOT an Engineering Sample. It appears to be a Retail-boxed processor.

Haven't these been posted already to the another thread, Shanghai/Deneb review thread IIRC?

[Aberration]

I cant wait to see the clock to clock comparison to the i7.

They initially appear to be clocking relatively the same.

I would love to see some real competition, its always good.

Bring it on....!

[ubuntu83]

It's showing the L3 cache in K-Bytes

nice.. interesting.. wats clock for clock comparison with corei7 ? anyone got any info on that ?

[RPGWiZaRD]

Too bad it doesn't show voltage, are we talking 1.4v or 1.6v for example for those clocks.

Definitely not 1.4V. Stock vCore is ~1.35, and 4Ghz takes ~1.55V (Currently sxs112 has it at 1.575).

I'm wagering ~1.6, on the far end.

However, if 1.4V was the last "safe" threshold of Intel 45nm Penryn chips, the Phen-IIs should at least get to 1.6-1.7V safely (this is by percentage to stock load vCore, since both are presumed to use majority domino logic).

Sweet vengeance.

So why do the CPUz pics show "Rated FSB" ?
Shouldn't this be "HTT Link" or something?

(I'm just reselling knowledge from the other thread... )

Because it's not the original JPEG image. It's dynamically generated.
They decided to use rated FSB for everything I think, even i7.

It's just semantics.

This oc was under phase change (-40°) .

source?

Thanks for the info, Thomas :-)

I need a board

I get the impression that Deneb operates under higher voltage level compared to Intel counterparts, but it's more tolerant to high voltage input too, so the end result is still about the same and the temperature seems to be under control too. Indeed, the only thing i really want to know is how this baby compared to Yorkfield clock per clock, especially at around 3.8-4.2 GHz with decent HTT OCing too. I already conceed that Core i7 should be faster, but that's not my concern at all, since i believe Deneb is positioned more of a Yorkfield competitor than its bigger brother, my budget is quite limited, gaming is the only heavy computer usage stuff that matter to me, and i plan on staying with DDR2 platform next year.

This oc was under phase change (-40°) .

that's not very good?

[AbelJemka]

Why? Max I see from Q9400 with phase was 4.2GHz and 4.6GHz for Q9550

[ZL1Killa]

i'm taking it this processors multiplier is changeable? as x20 i wouldn't think it would come that way out of the box...

hopefully we can reach 4ghz on water.... when I buy one of these suckers I'm getting the CPU, mobo, new waterblock, and maybe an addition to my WC system...

Too bad that Both looks like a suicide shoots , just look at the memory clocks

[FatAlbert]

guys, it's only -40c deegres.

with ln2 we can froze cpu to -100C

so don't panic

"so don't panic" .That was so funny man .

And they don't need phase for that, can be done on air and water... For Q9550 http://en.ripping.org/database.php?cpuid=634 and Q9400 http://www.ripping.org/database.php?cpuid=783

[dread77]

Trust me, this is definitely NOT a max out. Keep in mind that there is an NDA hanging over our heads.

I never state that
Good for PII so
