cinebench 11.5

[charged3800z24]

Did you check to see if your system clock was still showing the correct time of day?

I recall running a bench on an old machine, ages ago. It had a turbo button in it, but the machine design was stupid - the real-time clock update frequency was tied to the CPU frequency. So when you used turbo to make things faster, you couldn't measure the difference using the PC's clock, because it had counted faster as well.

More commonly, I've run into systems where a chunk of assembly code will disable interrupts while running a critical section; then the system clock loses updates and the benchmark measures much faster completion because very little time passed, according to the clock.

Yes, clock never changed and system is real stable at those clocks. haven't had any crashes or issues even while playing BF3 for 4 hours today and this game, on the right maps, uses 60-70% CPU usaage..... pretty awesome modern game we have here.

Here is something till Interlogos shows up for testing. Its a ES Magny-Cours 12 core with unlocked multi. 7 cores are at 3.3gig and the other 5 is at 3.6gig. Best I can do on air cooling and the voltage reg on this G34 motherboard.

how did you get ES unlocked cpus ? O_o!

[SnipingWaste]

I can't say. The same way others kind of show up here.

[duron]

weird CB @ single core, usually around 0.75~0.85 score here
i'm trying to repeat it but got sleepy @ 4am ~_~

[Zeus]

Dave, you're probably gonna hate me for this so eh... sorry dude!



The chip just kept scaling with voltage but it wasn't real easy to beat this score at 20ºC ambient.

Your turn Dave.

[FlanK3r]

nice Zeus, looks like nice chip, what temps did u get in load? It is possible with aircooling?

[Zeus]

Thanks Flank3r. To be honest i haven't kept an eye on the temps but i pointed the Infrared themometer on the side of chip's heatspreader and it only read 32ºC or something. This with 5.1GHz and almost 1.55V

I never saw the powerdraw of the entire system exceed 400 watt from the wall outlet druring these cinebench runs. So yes i think it should be doable under good aircooling too but maybe in the end of the test the heatload might get too high.

I've had at least 3 times where cinbench was rendering the very last line of squares when it suddenly froze, see pic where it froze at the last square!



I think it got a little hot at 1.55V lol.

[FlanK3r]

hehe, nice, I got the same in last square

Low leaking FX-4100 on air (Thermalright UEX120 + Ultra Kaze, ambient 18c).

[Particle]

Due to this board being quirky, this is the best I've done so far...and pathetically it's on dry ice. It'll do 4940 on water but I couldn't get more than 5235 on dry ice.

I don't know why CB was detecting it as 4C/8T.

[charged3800z24]

Well, I am getting there. Turned the poor mans chiller on and set the speed to 5ghz and 1.58v.....
8.16pts
I'll try again tomorrow and hope for better temps.

Wow nice run...I wish i Had 8core , this FX6100 is getting fun with regular water hehe

[charged3800z24]

Looks good. I seem to have the worse clocking 8core on Xtremesystems, lol.
I'm at 16*C this mornign and the chiller has been off all night.

Nice run!

I was unable to complete a ~5.1GHz Cinebench with my chip tested at ~17.5/18 C. ambient temps... aircooled. It seemed to stop scaling with volts... maybe the chip was just getting too hot or the chip might have reached its limits?

[BeepBeep2]

Is anyone else as suprised as me that gOtVoltage's FX-6100 is still alive? Anyone?
1.7v in Cinebench on air...

Also, gotvoltage, your scores seem extremely low...

[The Stilt]

still alive?

The chip will join the "air force" pretty quickly with such voltage.
It probably won´t throw the spoon instantly but the degradation should be quite instant.
Even at temperatures below -160c the chips are getting damaged with 1.9V+.

That is exactly what I figured.
AMD's 32nm chips obviously can not take voltages that were "pushing thresholds" on 90nm. I was doing validations on my Windsor chip just over 1.7v...
El Gappo hinted that he wouldn't pass 1.5v on air anymore, and it seems really dangerous to push past 1.9-1.95v on LN2 (2.05v CPU-Z scares me a bit, I don't have the money to just buy extra chips)

I would be more careful than a lot of us are being right now.

Seems to be My Bios Holding things back . The temps are fine and this Mobo/Chip combo needs the volts to keep the Vdip down. Anyway im living up to my name and some one needs to see what these things can take...

Ram is very tricky on this mobo .HIGh HTT and or stock htt dosnt seem to make a differance on my Cinebench besideds HigherClock speed and Ram speed

[informal]

@gOtVoltage

Looking at your scores at OCed speed,I'm sure the chip is throttling badly(due to temp reasons). Your scores are lower than what they should be at those clocks.

@Particle

Interesting anomaly in the detection of FX in CB. What motherboard are you running?

Hmm the 990FXA UD5 .. I think i just found my problem....
RAM TIming in Bios was the blame

Bios was in Auto and timin was not correct for my ram.

BEFORE



After Now its where a 5000mhz FX6100-6core should be




The chip is now running where its suppose to be for 5000mhz. Did some test and it came down to ram timing.. This Mobo/CPU will not go over 2700mhz/NB/HT no matter if its stock or clocked. Even using Stock volts it has always never gone above 2700NB stable.

[Daveburt714]

Your turn Dave.

Well... I managed to squeak past you, but there's nothing left in the cores @ ambient thats CB stable.
I took the v's all the way up to 1.4875 and couldn't even get 1 more click on the HTRef!
My chip just doesn't seem to like v's @ room temps.

If ya beat me again I'll have to work on the IMC (but I know there's not much there either ).




Your turn.....

can you run that with normal Nb speed too?
I want to see the difference the Nb speed makes.

[Zeus]

Your turn.....

Very nice buddy, very nice...


...but not good enough!



Don't know how much there is left but not much i guess. I don't think raising CPU-NB and memclocks will gain much but there's something left untapped it seems.

Shure will.

@ Zues
that chip is sweet.
