At 4.4GHz, 1.38v it was around 75-80c load. This is on an Apogee waterblock, custom hold down plate and a 370 GPH pump with a 30 pass radiator (copper tubing, aluminium fins). I really need a new waterblock, this old Apogee just doesn't cut it. Water temps are usually pretty good though, that radiator is a heater core out of a car.

4.2 boots into windows, didn't last more than 30 seconds of y-cruncher - and we didn't dare try prime95.
4.3 posts, no boot.
4.4 no post.

turbo disabled in all cases.


My new toy is a D0, and it's rock stable at 3.2 @ stock voltages. I haven't pushed it to see how far it'll go @ stock voltage. Right now, I'm running it at 3.34 GHz or (3.5 = 167 x 21 with turbo) with a slight vcore bump just to be safe. Under prime95 it peaks at 78C on the "stock fans" of a CM Hyper N520. I plan on getting some better fans - something I can actually hear...

My workstation went down... I'm guessing the MOSFET(s) for the top socket couldn't take anymore 24/7/52 150-watt power draw. I'll be RMAing it in a couple weeks, but in the meantime I needed a decent computer so I had to build this little comp. (by little, I mean physically small, not "crappy")
It's small enough to hand carry on a plane so I'll be taking it back to college.
It will also take over as my gaming, and programming rig since it games better and compiles faster. My workstation will stay at home (remote-controlled from school) and be dedicated to "extreme code-testing".

Benchmarks coming soon... Hopefully I can kill enough services to do a 2.5b run - which might be the first 2.5b done on a single-socket machine on record.

v0.4.1 should be out next week. Testing is just about done and now we're working on a new layout for the site. Once that's done too, I can release v0.4.1.
Sorry to hear about your board, that is unfortunate and does happen occasionally. I've seen a friends server go up in smoke because of the mosfets, one of them basically turned to ash. I'm very interested to try the latest version, speed increases are always welcomed.

Have fun with the D0, some of them are pretty good. I'm disappointed I can't get 4.4GHz stable, that chip is a picky one though. It only likes 1.21 or 1.34v VTT, anything else and it'll eventually blue screen. Also it is picky with the Vcore. The other D0 and my old C0 weren't picky, just throw volts at them and up they go. I'll see about getting another D0, hopefully a 3845B027.
