Quick OC With 1055T & 790FXTA

[MD]{]

Does anybody know if 790FXT-UD5P will have AGESA 3.7.0.0 bios update?

Great chip Mad, looking forward to your LN2 action

Thank you for your kindly mail and inquiry. Due to the CPU is not yet available in the market, we are not able to guarantee anything on the support issue. However, we will try our best to make it work if the hardware can support the specification. When information is ready, you can refer to our online CPU support list for more information.

GIGABYTE TECHNOLOGY

this was the awser they give me
its really bad if the board does not suport this CPU

just have to wait

Thank you for your post!

Interesting answer, they don't know the spec for FXT-UD5P but spec is not the problem for FXTA-UD5?

F3D 2010/04/02

1. Beta BIOS
2. Update AGESA 3.7.0.0 for AMD 6core CPU

EDIT: there is beta bios in fxt-ud5p thread, thx stasio

basicly they dont tell you nothing that is not a valid answer another member did the same thing and they told him if the board pass the tecnical test that it will suport , its realy realy geting on my nerves the cpus will be release on the end of the mounth i want to buy the 1090T
ut even the other board ud5 says it only suports the 1055

freaking strange

[Asmola]

I heard couple weeks ago that 1090T can do +4400MHz 06marks with air, and it looks like rumor was true!

[AMD-C]

I can't wait to see what the 1090T can do now. I was ready to preorder one, but seeing how high these 1055Ts are clocking I'm wondering if the 1090 will be able to outrun them by much?

A 1090T seeing the same relative (to stock clock) performance would be topping out around 5Ghz on air. That seems unlikely, but so did getting the 1055T to 4.4Ghz.

Exciting times.

[OhNoes!]

Very impressive! Mad222

[RaV[666]]

There is no reason to think that 1090T will be clocking much better than 1055T.Its the same chip.Could be better binned tho.So maybe 100-200mhz more on average.Or nil ;-).It will be easier to clock though.

[dinos22]

Haven't tried GTX2...
Ah.... Dinos22 had bought them all, so I could't even get a pc to try with

hey hey hey

WOW. People, don't get your hopes to high, you'll be dissapointed.

IMHO, this X6 will hit 4.0 to 4.1Ghz on aire OCCT stable, and nothing more.
4.3, 4.4Ghz at 3DMark2006 in XP 32b means nothing stability wise. Yeah, they are better than C3, but there are a lot of C3 hitting a wall at 3.8 to 3.95Ghz.

Talking about REAL stability we will see anywhere between 3.9 and 4.1, some rare cases 4.2

I repeat, IMO.
I didn't see anyone hiting 4.2Ghz prime, OCCT or linpak stable, not even 4.1Ghz...

[Zeus]

It's still early days but from what i've seen i'd say overclockability is at least as good as deneb C3 or maybe even better, especially on the CPU-NB.

4.4GHz 3d mark06 sure is a degree of stability to me, if this is possible on air it might even pass this at 4.5GHz on water.

Happy days are here again.

[FlanK3r]

Andi64: im with you. But overall is Thuban great OC potencial. OC 1055T and 1090T is +- the same.1055 is harder to setings and can be problems with higher busspeed (not good version BIOS or lowend motherboard)

[I.nfraR.ed]

I'm also expecting 4, or hardly 4.1GHz Prime stable with high-end cooling and it would be even harder in a combination with high-speed DDR3 and high CPU-NB. Don't expect too much. It's better to be suprised by higher OC, rather than dissapointed, because your chip can't hit even 4GHz stable, and ofcourse you've expected 4.2 Hope that I'm not right, though.

[richierich]

WOW. People, don't get your hopes to high, you'll be dissapointed.

AMD has refined their process even more, so why are you so pessimistic?

yes they are.after selling my i3 setup i just bought an i7 setup to hold me over
until i can get my hands on one of these x6's.which i'll put under water.
i too hope they are able to to be prime stable above 4.0Ghz up to 4.2Ghz on air

[Andi64]

I'm not pessimistic. Based on actual facts, on the product history and my experience with it if you like, I'm being realistic.

First show up fo Phenom II: 940BE C2. Everyone of us saw them running benchmarks at 3.9Ghz

In reality, max stable for the average processor was: 3.6-3.7Ghz. For the lucky ones: 3.8Ghz

Then you have Phenom II 955, the second, more mature C2.
Everyone of us saw them running 3.9, 4.0Ghz... much easier than 940BE.

In reality, max stable for the average processor was: 3.7-3.8Ghz. For the lucky ones: 3.9 to 3.95Ghz

Then we have C3... wich promised better overclocks. And it delivered:

Average: 3.9 to 4.0Ghz. And the lucky ones may hit 4.05 to 4.1Ghz, but you have benchmarks of them runing 4.7Ghz on air. Yay!?.... nope.

Now we have E0.
What has history told us to expect?

If you are expecting to hit 4.2Ghz rock stable with a six-core... I'm not the one who's gonna be dissapointed.

On the other hand IF these processors manage to hit ON AVERAGE 4.0Ghz (and not the DAMN 3.9484126~Ghz ish...) with 6-cores I will buy one and will be very happy with it

(for me stability is 1hs OCCT linpack and 64b Windows, or at least a two hs. on prime95 blend).

[initialised]

When do these come out in the EU? Will pair it with a 5850 and the rest of my current setup... nice

There are at least two Thubans in the UK. Apparently they overclock very well even on budget boards. If the 1055T is priced right and routinely hits 4GHz they could replace the i5 750 as the midrange overclockers choice.

You don't need to be lucky to hit 4.1 on C3 what are you talking about? People that hit 3.9 aren't trying hard enough. People hit 4.2-4.3 on water...

If you meen prime95 then you need to be lucky, i have tested 3x955BE C3 + 2x965BE C3(with good air)

2x955BE C3 did have trouble to make 3.9ghz prime95 (1.45-1.55v)
1x965BE C3 did have trouble to make 3.9ghz prime95 (1.45-1.55v)
1x965BE C3 did have trouble to make 3.95ghz prime95 (1.45-1.55v)


1x955BE C3 did make 4.1 ghz prime95 (1.45-1.55v)


Yes water is easyer but my air is one of the beter.

[Dumo]

Just wait 10 more days and we will know if X6 good enough for running prime at 4Ghz+ all day long or bench 3Ds @ 6.5 Ghz with NB @ 4.6ish

Don't have the cpu yet, so all I can say is I hope it will

10 more business days of waiting in agony for some people...I will get my 1055T at a local Frys on the 27th.

For peeps that can't wait, this one have in stock 1055T...Probly by EMS from Singapore?

You sure?

My 965 C3 can do 4140 max on good watercooling. my 955 C3 can do 4100 on the same watercooling.

This is Prime blend stable.

Show me 4.2-4.3 on water, Prime stable please?

Btw, my 940 did 3850 and my 955 C2 did 4000 both Prime stable so i don't think Andi64 's estimation is too far off.

[Mad222]

Guys....give me a hand here!

Just got 3pcs of Corsair 1600 C6 & having a problem to stick these babies into the 890GTD slots

Dumo, it's the same stick as yours, right ?




Giga 790FXTA is fine, but barely fits. I need to be very careful to avoid scratches



But 890GTD, dual channel is either slot#1+3 or Slot#2+4
Man....what HS do I need for this ??
Why AMD MB manufacturers just give more thoughts on this...maybe half inches more !
Original HS should be used ?! Perhaps !

Just because Andi64 needs his cpu to be prime stable doesnt mean everybody else does.

Some people live by prime some dont......I dont.

I run 4.2ghz........not prime stable though.........everyday stable........game stable........benchmark stable...........but not 750w every minute 100% fantasy load that could never happen with the things I do stable....... I only play games and edit/convert videos anyway so I dont care about prime

30 minutes chilled water 4.3ghz?

awesome sticks! have you tried slots 3&4 to see if it will run in dual channel? i think some other boards had alternate ram colors but still use 1&2 for 1 channel 3&4 for the other. otherwise you could maybe unscrew one of the heatsinks that stick up for slot 2 if you have to use 2&4

edit: and since it was brought up i had ~3.8 prime stable on air w/ my 940, 3.9 for my 955c2 on air, 4.1 air & water obv. on my 965c3 1.52v
