i940 results

[SAE]

Excellent results... the 940 is really an alternative to the XE concerning max clocks under top air or water cooling.

First of all id like to say good job with the overclock very impressed, and second I got my 940 today but waiting for the evga x58 mobo, just wondering what batch number your chip is, and is there somwhere i can find what numbers are doing what, the last 2 chips ive bought the qx9650 and the e8600 have been poor batches im hoping this one is gonna be different.

thanks for sharing.

does the i940 can be easily stable on air with a TRUE and good case @4000MHz (i mean few hours) ?

do i have more chance to reach this frequency than with a i920 ?

My i7-920 and GA-EX58 are on it´s way and I am going for 200x20 with my Noctua NH-U12F, 24/7. If it gets to hot I think 3800MHz would be pretty good anyways...

Very nice good work. Did you have HT enabled?

- What´s the advance of not have HT enable?

Operating systems can't recognize which core is a "real" one and which one is a "virtual" one, it just sees eight cores. So if two work-intensive threads are assigned to two cores, it can happen that it's a real core plus a virtual one running off the same real core, so in this case it's actually slower than with four cores when every thread is assigned to a real core.
