Single core? Or not enough volts....two reasons for the rejected.....but nice going.

Now that i'm not under the constraints of a review and i appear to have some free time......I am really gonna let this cpu of mine rip

Hey Chew*, I accidently got a 955BE this week, what do you think? Air results in the skeleton case.

Looks like the newer batches are improving, hows it do in prime blend?

[Daveburt714]

^^^ I was wondering about that too after seeing the results from the X2 550's...

I've yet to see a 955 with a week code later than 0919, while most of the 550's are in the 092x range. You would think the 955's have to binned higher than the X2's....

[FlanK3r]

try Cinebench R64 ,-)

Will do, I am at work right now..

try Cinebench R64 ,-)

I can do this as well. will load up 64 bit tonight

[charged3800z24]

I am going to order some thermal paste so I can put this under my water setup. Any ides of what to get? I don't like the heat the stock cooler is showing and would like to get it off ASAP .

[charged3800z24]

I just did some stock volts stable test first. I am running 3.8 1.45v now. I will do 4ghz next.

[charged3800z24]

3.8-1.45v 2.6NB

We should get some compares to 965 results up here!

I can oblige in a few days........You want me to pick the best of the best or the avg of the avg for the compare......

[FlanK3r]

i think, x4 965 is a bit better for OC, x4 955 ended ussually between 3.7-3.85 Ghz and x4 965 think up to 3.9 GHz (with AIR)

only 50mhz :P ? .. for 95watt 965 will be interesting.. when comes C revision which some talk about here or i did read wrong?

[muziqaz]

wel, you should look at lower end(3.7ghz). for 965 it would be 3.9ghz and that is something. and even with 50mhz it is something for the same cpu with volt bump

[chew*]

3d on phase change on an average chip.......



3d on phase after binning 10 chips..........all other chips could not break 4.4g

I might add this chip bombed out on ln2, lack of voltage tolerance.



3d on phase with the first 965 BE retail part I have tested......have not tested others yet, this was also on vista..........versus the above chips only on XP.


Chip #3

[chew*]

2 more for the compare chip #3 is the last shot in above post.

Chip #2


This is Chip #1



I thought I would add this for you simon let me know if your seeing what i'm seeing.

Chip #3


Chip #2


Chip #1

[chew*]

Got another chip done today as well......well sort of, 1am now.....


We will call this "review chip" #1



Here's another one of these to add some food for thought, same chip.



1 more to go, need some sleep..........
