SandyBridge 2D madness - let's tweak for the best 1m, 32m, pifast and wprime!

[Eldonko]

My efforts for the evening. Pushing this kit of bbse to the limit. Could never pass 5.7 32m, today I could.

much much better Zac

should be interesting to see if you can run the Hypers at 7-8-7 with the same clocks. maybe you'll get luck and 7-7-6 will run

seems my bud found a chip very similar to your jody, guess we will give sub 6 a spin. Expecting to be a second off from you or there abouts, My 32m OS tuning skills still suck :P

seriously dude, quit blowing smoke up my ass hedging your bets.

we've been in this thread for a couple days without me having to call you a douche, and then you go and say something like this.
so close to co-existing Brian, so close

Wow, great chip

[Splave]

do you guys use the pi.dat tweak?

[chew*]

Jody got a problem with me there are better ways and places to discuss it. I'm very sorry you take offense in me thinking I will be a second or so slower than you.........

On topic.

Decided to play with some PSC.

included settings, have fun.

[Dumo]

Nice runs there chew*

I will try this UD7

C'mon guys...is all for fun

[steponz]

Updated the ss, didn't realize it sucked so bad...

Wasn't the best run, literally booted up ran waza with what I was using before.. and bam....

Chip is degraded after running 3d... Wasn't that great of a chip really, gave me a decent 01 and 03 score.. Will get another couple chips within the week.

[Eldonko]

I dont like to hear this as I plan to run 3d tonight. What voltages were you using?

[steponz]

Yeah.. 1.65vcore on TEC chilled water.. load was 17C on block.. Chip is definitely degraded..Still is good under 5.4ghz.. but anything over.. not so good...
01 killed my other chip.... but that chip had 3 cores in the grave from when I started.... lol... I want a 5.8 chip anyway...

[Eldonko]

5,4 now, what was it before?

seriously there was nothing offending in that post, just a little self-ironic touch which I personally gave a little smile. take it easy man!
don't destroy the harmony in this thread please (I am usually not saying something to personal things people seem to have between each other but as I started that topic and love how it turned out I felt like I had to say something - please don't put me on your "badboys list" )

thanks for sharing! got some screens of my C43 bios also but need to get home first...4 days business trip, 3 days gf on week-end, monday business trip again...sometimes life is busy and sucks

I also seem to have degraded my best chip - did 5589 at its best times but now it can hardly run 5.5 on air anymore (which was easy at the beginning). sended it to a friend for a session and he managed 5.55 under ln2 but didn't came close to 5580. when he first tried water 5.4 was all he got looks like past 1.62-1.64V the degrading issues start.
Been benching my 2nd best chip a longer term under air just around 1.55-1.57 and he seems to be fine with it even at high temps (60+ but sub 70).

do you guys use the pi.dat tweak?

no I only edit the records.dat for having nice times in the overview when starting pi

[G H Z]

First time I've heard of 01 killing chips

do you guys use the pi.dat tweak?

Hax!!!

Shocking. Stock vcore is ~1.0v and we're dumping 50% to 70% more into the chips at ambient temps

stock vcore for me is ~1.1-1.2 so it is "only" ~40% imo but still - I wanna have back 130nm...that could at least take freakin' voltage loads

interesting...I have not seen any degradation in my chips. they just die.....

[chew*]

Someone want to borrow mine and kill it for me?

I fail at killing my retail

[G H Z]

If you find a 5.8GHz version sure, LMK

ok you had me chuckling

You are simply not a killer - accept it If there wouldn't be that much water between us (geographically), I would jump over and show you how to do it properly

I primed it at 5 gig ( which is its max speed ) and benched it at 1.6-1.7vcore, 2.1 pll, 1.20 vccsa ( because it won't boot higher ) and 1.6 vccsa with ET6 just for kicks.

No clue how people are killing them.

Other chip i'm babying but its a loaner so....

[SoF]

Just thinking out loud here (without having a clue as usual ): there seems to be chips we can call "survivors" and there are "pussies" - just like with GT...some could take 1.5V QPI easy, some died, some could take 1.85Vdimm, some died - as seen before on small production process chips tend to be weaker or stronger. There will be no certain voltages we can really say "it will die or not". There are "safe" voltages e.g. below 1.575V every chip can take without big trouble but past a certain border it is like with overclocking itself - some chips have it, some chips not

€dit: but 1.6 vccsa - damn that does sounds strange somehow your chip is still alive must be a golden-voltage-survivor - too bad it isn't a golden clocker

[eva2000]

first experience with 2600K - auto timings for now



5.0Ghz 1.390v

[dinos22]

ive tried three chips and none of them could get into windows at such low vcore eeek, how do you always find these chips

next thing you'll tell me it benches at 5.5Ghz

make sure you disable No memory execute for 32M Pi benching btw as Jody figured out what was causing him to slow down so much over mine and cheapseat's results.
