Phenom II X4 @ +6 GHz by Team Finland

[dinos22]

Oh YESSSS!!! Next issue that should be taken care of is... CONDENSATION. Makers must start making insulated motherboards with plastic and armaflex included in the bundle.

easy man
with that kind of clearance around the socket a blind man can insulate the board now hehehe

seriously also if ppl have never used this kneaded eraser you should
it kicks ass

If this is Wr you most Validate it to mate

If this is Wr you most Validate it to mate

i dont think sampsa is claming anything yet as these are not released yet
simply giving us heads up

[PytonOrm]

okey dinos22 =)

Excellent job Sampsa. I will be able to check myself what this baby can do under LN2 during weekend. Though, this no coldbug situation is SO promising. I loved the pic with the pot filled with LN2...

Check out a few air results with PhenomII that can be done by anyone. No tweaks, Vista 32 OS, just simple slight o/ced runs.

Dread, you MUST doing a WR's PII!

Sampsa: you can tell me about max reachable on H2O?

"3DMark05 & 06 CPU-tests were ok @ 6 GHz"

ouch!

[NightRaven]

yea interested to see some numbers too!

[Sampsa]

guys, .. like it is already clearly posted in the first post.. it was me & SF3D in Chicago overclocking (Team Finland), not just me. We performed the tests and overclocking together.

AMD employees macci and Pete Hardman worked together with other system. They ran into problems during not-so-serious LN2 competition in the event so we claimed easy victory with 6 GHz Crysis They beat us with air cooling (3,908 GHz vs 3,940 GHz).

[Fr3ak]

Nice numbers Sampsa! =) Looks like you guys had a blast.


Looks like we will soon have more screenshots about Pheonom II > 6 GHz than Nehalem > 5 GHz

Competition = good. January should be interesting.

you are very tense mate
are these CPUs gonna put a spanner in the works with your doctoral thesis exploring CBs.....heh at least you can still study intel chips

[tiborrr]

Awesome clocks guys, can't wait to get my hand on one of those!

[Solarfall]

great numbers guys.. good to see amd back in the game again. cant wait to see how it performs in different benches

[George_o/c]

That's just lovely

Well, I suppose we know have to wait for the retail chips, so that we finally see what AMD has been up to all this time ...

[Oliver]

awesome man, that is just sick

thanks alot for posting

looks like you guys had a good event

and as Tim says, these would 4 sure be fun to play with, no matter what

keep pushing it

[zif33rs]

Great info...thanks Sampsa. Looks like you guys had alot of fun. Cant wait to get my hands on one.

What's up with the HT link at only 1007MHz?

Can you answer this?

We were just aiming for high CPU clocks, AMD had used that setting previously so we just left it there. We only had couple of hours to spend so unfortunately we couldn't focus on everything. We have CPUs now back home so we can start tuning for best performance

Great work SF3D and Sampsa. January will definitely very interesting.

[Pt1t]

nice work !

I think i 'll test it this week end

[dinos22]

lots of testign this weekend it seems

[zif33rs]

Bleh... *grabs 2nd cup of coffee...*


thanks trunks....overlooked that.

[drnip]

Very, very nice.

[MTP04]

Like everyone else, thanks for the heads up!

I'm definitely looking forward to testing these chips.

Dinos, you and Moloko should do us a favor and test for max air 24/7. It seems to me that based on Sampsa's comments, 4Ghz air 24/7 may be out of reach for the average user?

We tested 4 chips in 30 mins (had 5 available).. you can do the math how much time was used per chip (heatsink installation, windows vista loading, settings clockspeeds) to reach 3,9 GHz in Crysis

[Zannema]

Really impressive clock for AMD
