[Team.AU] 1st LN2 test AMD 965+Gigabyte 790FXTA-UD5+Corsair 2250s> 1M SuperPi:10.125s

[stunned_guy]

Very good job mate
That CPU rocks and with some more tweaking there will be sub 10s...go for it !!! AMD is alive !

[biohead]

this new gigabyte board seems to be a good step upwards from the MA790FXT-UD5P. new standards, better layout, etc.

i think this board has gone a little unnoticed by the masses as the name GA-790FXTA-UD5 much resembles the previously mentioned MA790FXT-UD5P.

That Akasa looks like a good deal, the stats measure up well to alot of the other fans. I just wish it wasnt so ugly. Any tips on the OP edit?

F1OC is over.... just noticed the site updated with scores. Some mixed emotions about this competition to be honest...it really lost it's "charm" for me after XS pulled the plug but with all the fighting and BS i dont blame Charles for doing that

Here is my final score for F1OC 8M SuperPi round and a W.R. for AMD CPUs

I disabled a couple of cores in CPUz....it went a bit funny lol! It didnt help me with frequency but i did get a slightly better wazza and gained another 0.3s so that worked out well i guess

This was my second session and i changed over to my gold pot......this was a first "proper" test for this pot hence i decided to install the probe etc. For those who haven't seen much of it i made a quick video a while back when good people from Thermolab made me and a few other overclockers a custom gold(plated)en LN2 pot heh > YOUTUBE VIDEO..........it held the cpu nicer than F1EE but i still need that Venom strapped to it, i reckon, to try and nail some 32M runs between 6555-6600......from what i saw, so far, it's going to be very nice fellas

Gigabyte 790FXTA-UD5 board is really very very good so far. It's held up to some serious torture and water all over it......efficiency was there i cant complain ...just gotta work out now how to setup Gigabyte EasyTune on my SuperPi OS as i had to revert to my "all round testing OS" for final results

R.I.P. to one of my Corsair Dominator GTX sticks...in fact my BEST stick was lost in first bench session...not realising until i tried on the second session . The ONLY thing i can think of is condensation but i still don't know how as i packed the out of vdimm slots with vaseline.....CPU pot is a bit too close to dimm slots on AMD boards so running -187C for hours will eventually freeze a large area around the board too as anyone benching AMD would know i guess

These Corsair Dominator GTX 2250 sticks are MONSTERS......For the final benching session with 936MHz 6-6-6-18-1T andn 4680MHz NB i only use 1.7vdimm (DMM measured)

[eva2000]

Congrats dino and with THE GOLD POT! It finally makes a worthy appearance!

shame about the GTX module though

[Gautam]

Grats Dino, sucks to hear about that stick of ram.

I think maybe the vaseline needs to cover the entire PCB under the spreader to be completely safe...

[dinos22]

cheers guys
yes i think you are right
too bad corsair RAM HS is a PITA to remove without pulling ICs lol
