E8400 @ 5283,5MHZ / ATI 5850 3dmark01 world 3'rd place air cooled

[kagula323]

Test config:
E8400 E0/Megahalem + Scythe Ultra Kaze 3000 RPM
DFI LP Dark P45-T2RS Plus bios D914
Muskin 2x1GB DDR2 D9GMH
Sapphire ATI Radeon 5850 @ 1055/1200
Samsung 320GB F3 drive
Cooler Master Real Power 700W
XP SP3 Pro

CPU-Z max Validation: 5283.5 MHZ
Validation: http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=1052926



SuperPI: 8.938s @ 5233.3MHZ


Pifast: 18.72 @ 5101


3DMark 2001: 90406 and 3'rd place world wide on ATI 5850


3DMark 2005: 95843


And all of this was achieved with only air cooling!!!! I must admit these DFI LP DK P45T2RS Plus are damn good boars for conroe cpu .
Pitty that I was forced to stop there (cooling could't cope with more), because I feel that this mobo and cpu are able to do much more than this.
Hope that u guys enjoy my work.

Air as in normal (20c) air temp, or some crazy cold night with window open-air?

My E8700 can follow your chip up to 5.16GHz with low voltage, but without cold air it just gets really hot above 1.4v.

Ambient was about 15-20 degrees

I don't agree with you ... I think for only air this is quite extreme ...

+1, this is a really good score, so it belongs here.

Couldn't you at least congratulate him? Furthermore in the link you posted it's clearly stated:

The Xtreme Overclocking section is for top-end EXTREME overclocks and large achievements. Generally if you aren't at least on dry ice, this is the wrong section. If you have an absolutely EXCEPTIONAL air, water or single stage overclock, then it's acceptable.

I think it's indeed exceptional, especially if you take into consideration the ambient temperature kagula reported. ~5.3GHz E8400 validation and 5.1GHz 2k1 benchable isn't easy, at all!

kagula any plans for sub-zero cooling?

Thank's George for your apreciations! These are the best results I've seen on hwbot until now for E8400 air cooled. All better results (and even many lower) where attained using LN2 or dry ice.

And to answer your question ... I believe I'll have the opportunity to test it under dry ice in about two weeks from now. The good thing is that I'll have time to test maxfsb and optimize memory performance ... things I couldn't until now

because there's only nine days past since i bought this motherboard so it's been little time to play with it.

(Sorry for my english ... it's not the best one)

Awsome result dude, really tip top on a 15 degrees ambient. Amazing cpu u got thereand i really hope to see it on dice soon.

[siavash_shojaee]

good work bro
now go for ln2
show us 5.8+

[overclockers]

bravo

great Oc

you need freeze this awesome chip!
congrats
