My FX-57 benches at 3800MHz!

[OPPAINTER]

I put my FX-57 on my PCIce -90C cascade yesterday.
It took a while to figuer out but I got it running, the only problem at these temps is the memory controller. The colder the chip the less memory speed I can obtain. I'm limited to around 230 Max when the Cascade is at -90C.

Gunna do some more this weekend and see what we can do.

Here's the bugger doing 3D05 at 224x 17 = 3800Mhz.

That's a really nice FX-57 you got there !!!
2nd @ 3dmark05 ...push those 7800GTX a little more and grab the first rank @ 01/03/05

hmm. well that sucks the mem controller cant take it... funny how the mem controller is the a64's biggest asset but also its biggest hinderance for overclocking...

[i found nemo]

gangster-ness-ness seriously beautiful o/c *bows to the o/c master*

[OPPAINTER]

Yea, the mem controller problem is a complete bummer. I hope there are chips out there that can handle the cold.

[Absolute_0]

nice clocks!

[cupra]

that is a fast cpu opp, but the controller are bummer, the 230mhz of the rams are killing the business

and well done opp, like always

[Hector Ruiz]

Nice OC... Keep up the good work OPP

[lupacchiotto]

oh my god real impressive your fx57 OPP
at which temperature you have the coldbug problem?
thank you
regards

opp if you try it with ln2 and control the temps you maybe can reach higher mem speed

a question what is better insane cpu speed or something more slow but 1:1

[Jack]

Opp, does 2x 256MB of mem give the same results as 2x 512mb?
half a gig of mem is lesser strain on the memory controller that one whole gig, maybe at -90 it's makes the difference

[Jeff037]

really great OPP

compliments..

[pancake]

nice work opp great results yet again

[Alec]

any chance of a cpu-z screenie?

Totally sick overclock

[EMC2]

Nicely done Opp Interesting info, thanks for sharing

[railer]

Congrats on awesome cpu clock. Hope the future version cpu would eliminate cold issue.
What realy bugs meis your 7800's. Are those on just regular WC? no pelts? Realy crazy oveclock

[AKURA]

thats in awesome opp keep going brotha!!!

[zakelwe]

With ther reduced bandwidth is it slower than your Fx-55 at 3600+ in 3dmark Opp ?

[ArcTan]

damn that's awesome
how many volts are you pushing in her?

[MaxxxRacer]

Andy,

considering that eric had to run the SD at 233 memory instead of 270mhz I'd say that 200mhz is entirely negated for 3d01.

In 05 running at 3800MHz is better, not sure about 03.
But in 2001, it is terrible with the low Bandwidth

OPP

[cpulloverclock]

opp, which is the stepping?

0512, 0513, 0522?

for the low fsb u think it's the same problem for all?
I'll see with my tests

[Ashe]

Sick CPU you got there

But about that mem controller Never heard of anything like that, did those problems appear an other SD/Venice as well?

[The Mofo]

Cmon Eric, its Overcast outside and cool. Clock that baby up to 4 ghz

[mad mikee]

Works under normal temps sometimes, maybe just gotta re-train the mem ctlr? (Just WAG - couldn't hurt to try )

And nice stuff anyway Opp...
