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

God you gigabyte bastards are killin it lol!

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

Yeah but a lot of guys apply a bunch of voltage right outta the box and shock them into bench-mode...after that it doesn't seem like they run as well on lower vcore. That's the only thing I've seen change on my 2600 after lots of voltage, it won't POST occasionally on BIOS defaults.

first experience with 2600K - auto timings for now

5.0Ghz 1.390v

an old warrior joining the game - great!

without pll overvoltage option the chips seem to need lower vcore as I found out during my first testings (don't look at the time, that was before xmas )
5 GHZ 32m @ 1.33V

God you gigabyte bastards are killin it lol!

I need to finally get out my gigabyte-fanboyism I had with DS3P and K8NXP-SLI back in the days - ordering a board as soon as I have some private time again I think.

[SteveRo]

Mr. Splave - yes gigabyte SB boards seem to be getting some good results.
My UD5 is still doing the multi boot on-off dance all the time though - I suppose oscillating between 1.1 and 1.66 cpuv ~30x in an hour doesn't help.
Should probably try to pick up a backup board.

[steponz]

Funny thing is my degraded chip can do 1.39 5ghz.... Can't do 3D over 5.4... when it used to do @5.6... Very odd chip..

Thats just have the gigabyte boards roll... they put some great numbers though...

its hard to catch hyper with psc for 32m p8p67 just not strong on memory which it should be for $300 :X not much cheaper then mive

EDIT: but no more whining, if it wants psc I will give it psc

P8P67 depending on the version is only ~135€ - it's a nice price for such a board, but I agree it does have some issues with hyper.

[Alex-Ro]

Chew if you wanna kill your 2500K just ship more than 1.5 VCCIO in it,it surely is enough.If it survives that,then i think you have a survivor,much better than that guy at Discovery Channel

5.0Ghz 1.390v

eva running auto timings

Get to clocking that memory

[Perica_Barii]

Little update ....

Vqpi 1.14v Vdim 1.8v

Haha - good catch - eva running auto timings - you don't see that very often!

[Splave]

anyone else have this problem...I can bench 32m all day 10x back to back to back but as soon as I try to wazza within the first or second cut and paste BSOD 000000x9c :X
2133 to 1866 didnt solve it so maybe its a subtiming is too tight.

[SteveRo]

^ did you try in via ocxspitweaker

[Splave]

yeah regular will pass, CDT fails within 5 seconds of starting pi tweaker

[Eldonko]

Put your subs on auto and try again. If it works set 1 at a time until you know what is causing it.

Weird. Sorry to hear that about hypers....
Apparently they are going out of style!

try some old school waza. its just a file copy.

Beat on this system one more time and sucked the last bit of effec out of this 2500K, I can only hope cache is playing a small role here or the fact that i'm using a full SP3 install with no services shut off.

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.

lol i wish - seem got another cpu meant for 24/7 low volts but seems got a 52x multi wall right now

lol

still early days while i figure out the ins and outs of memory clocking on P67 platform

Tested a pair of super talent 2200c8 hypers don't like 1T at 2133mhz 8-8-8-24 only 2T for 32M pi. Still have lots of hypers to try and see how it goes

[Eldonko]

Kick some ass george, you always do

6m1s @ 5.52ghz is Teh suck

didn't heard of that but just a stupid thought: are you running high bclk? isn't bclk overclocking the entire system-components including sata ports? maybe they don't like it beeing pushed hard? tried using different sata ports (as this is what waaza stresses) or another theory: you are having the cougar point sata issues - tried the 6G ports?

sounds promising

This one's for you dino

Gonna need more than a 5 gig chip to play with the top 10 boys in a "memory" benchmark

[dinos22]

hahah that is SICK dude. If you had a 5.6 chip that would be 5K LOL j/k

i pwms you noob with my beer tweak lol

[SoF]

Here is my run on el-cheapo msi with the most ugly bios in the sandy-world Most of the timings are maxed now and one step lower will crash 32m. Already needed some more vdimm for getting trfc at least a bit lower...1.72V or so instead of 1.65 I think.





PS: that gay backround is because it is mandatory in the contest - I hate it and remove it always right after the screenshot
