Xtreme undercooling

[misteroadster]

i'm actually testing a really crappy 3000+ venice without IHS , i'm doing some torture tests for the community

at first i'm trying the max frequency coolingless

it's very impressive , i can run prime at 666mhz with 1volt without any cooling and i think i can do a lot better.
I can touch the core with my finger while prime is running !!!
Temp is around 60° full

Update : 1.1Ghz prime stable passed look at this Video

Now i'm playing to find the minimal cooling for overclock this poor 3000+, results here

Ive seen a pic of a 7800gtx running without a hsf. It was sweet, the core was glowing red! Maybe pop the IHS for us?

[FriGidi]

crazy

ups..

[stealth17]

grazy

you mean crazy

[Bloody_Sorcerer]

mmmmmh... gravy
also, stealth, i suspect that pictar was photochopped, unless you're certain it was not; if the core was glowing red, it would most likely desolder itself.

[IvanAndreevich]

You should do a lot better if you can drop the voltage much lower

I agree with Bloody_Sorcerer either that or it only ran for a few seconds before dying. One of my 7800GTX quickly met it's demise but not fully having the waterblock seated and trying to run it a few times. When I removed the insulation from the back I saw the nail polish had actually started to melt. The card never worked again after.

ouch...

turn CnQ on while you are "testing" the cpu, see if it automatically goes any lower by itself

[STEvil]

wonder if you could get 1ghz by aiming a fan at it

[Comp-Freak]

No IHS and no HSF? Crazy

[Edit] Something to add:

[JuanFlaiter]

Ok, I need to see pictures. xD

[Vapor]

I think I saw something like this on a PM before....it was crazy. Very interesting idea though, I must say--wish I had a cooler chip to try it with (I 'only' have a Venus and a Toledo).

[skirms_fr]

lol mister you are so crasy xD

[SoF]

this is exciting ^^
sounds very cool to me running a cpu without anything - you're suprising me every day
hmmmmm should I challenge you with my 3200+ venice ?!

gl on the 700MHZ *gg*

[misteroadster]

The cpu has run prime all night long , it's stable at 666Mhz , i'm going to push it harder
.... now i'm running prime at 1ghz ram 200mhz 78° full !!!!

ok , what do you want ? a little video ? a screenshot ? both ?

A BURN-OUT VIDEO!!! -.-

Nice prime - WR with NON-Cooling?

[misteroadster]

Lol , yes probably

I haven't finished , it's just the first tests , 80° full actually , but i think i can get some more Mhz.

Walk or die session

[Athens[2004]]

thιs is Xtreme , if this processor had soul it would have flown far

[misteroadster]

Finally , i got some new results , i'm really impressed.

Actually running prime at 1.2Ghz ram 200 dual , vcore 0.925v
Temp full : 78°
