my cooling is screwed up at the moment, cpu runs hot!.. have to fix this.. cant do much benching.. anyway looks like im gonna have to put an order for the vapochill

That kentsfield looks pretty good. Before you jump into the vapo make sure you stop by the phase forum and read some of Jinu's worklog thread. Some of the SS units seem to be having trouble with kentsfields massive heat output under high vcore.

[eva2000]

areca + kentsfield = bloody fast rig

[syne_24]

niice...

[NapalmV5]

thanx guys, but i dont know how bloody fast it is.. u guys can campare to me.. im in the dark here..

well, i took a look at the heatspreader and no surprise, it was concaved the only contact was on the edges.. damn u intel! damn u! made me lap a brand new 1200$ cpu !! temps r under control now but still hot..

how accurate is core temp? before the lap, temps were 100C on all cores, is that a good burn in? lol

thnx for the heads up, good info, ill keep an eye on what jin will come up with for the quad-cores..

OMG 100*C? I think it is safe to say it is thoroughly burnt in.. Some of the builders in the phase change section can whip together a nice unit that'll handle the kentsfield, it is a beast of a chip but it can be tamed.

I'm hoping my unit will work well with kf. Mine is one of the more recent Jinu builds set up for heavy load. Once kf comes down a little more in $ I might look into it. Plus my board does not allow for upward multi's. Waiting for a new bios or IN9 32X-MAX whichever comes first

if your backing up DVD's with DVD shrink and its only taking 4 minutes or 2 minutes for the Kent. then your not backing up anything.

you need to understand that unless you back up the ENTIRE DVD and NOT just the main movie all your doing is pulling the vob files form the dvd and placing them on the hard drive.

looking at your times thats all your doing your not actually recoding the dvd.
take and recode the ENTIRE dvd, all languages all menu's and everything.
it will take longer than 2 minutes. ad encode it for DVD5 not DVD9.

and 4 minutes on a 6600 i can tell you right now i have dropped some DVD9 movies that the main movie was over 6 gigs and i can guarentee you it takes longer than 4 minutes to recode it.
it only takes 4 minutes when you take a DVD5 and only redo the main movie as a DVD 5 cuz it doesnt do anything but copy the VOB files.

and your posting of Nero Re-Code. bullsh|t you didnt recode the entire Matrix movie with Nero Re-Code in less than 1 minute no way according to your picture it only took you 52 seconds to re-encode an entire feature length movie.
im sorry but no way.
UNLESS you are using an EXTREMELY loose compression ratio and the Nero codec makes the movie just as large as the DVD movie and then, once again all your doing is lieing to yourself, all its doing is taking a very loose compression of MPEG2 for a Vob file and recompressing it in the same or looser compression for the nero codec.


why dont you take a movie, then entire movie and redo it in divx or xvid or something. 1 cd or even 2 cd's you will then see how good it really is compared to a E6600
i'll find a picture i had of a program that i used with my 955 XE it used all 4 cores for encoding video. not nealy as fast as a conroe but it was damn wicked fast since it was using all cores.

[NapalmV5]

Lestat, lol

main movie + AC3 on the areca1210 which i used for nero recode & dvdshrink as source,



and this is just like u said, encoding + no compression, basically just copying,


about nero recode, that was the source to DVD-5 recoding

im gonna do entire dvd which is about 600-700MB larger..

let me know about that program that uses all 4 cores.. thanx!

[NapalmV5]

entire matrix reloaded dvd,

source, 6.67GB


nero recode, DVD-5 recode


dvdshrink, DVD-5 recode


thats the power of areca + kent, like eva2000 said, bloody fast

why dont you take a movie, then entire movie and redo it in divx or xvid or something. 1 cd or even 2 cd's you will then see how good it really is compared to a E6600

thats next, on conroe @ 3600 it took 9 min. to redo to 1 700MB cd.. i wonder what the kent will do

[NapalmV5]

entire matrix reloaded 6.67GB dvd to 1 700MB CD apple ipod mp4,

Kent @ 3635

1 pass


2 pass


so, is this fast?

[NapalmV5]

mobo components @ full load go over 100+*C by laser therm.. cpu, ram, mobo, the whole rig is a furnace! im concerned that this beast will catch on fire, how many *C does it take?

[NapalmV5]

areca 1230 + 1210


1x nero recode dvd-5
1x 5.79GB matrix reloaded


2x nero recode dvd-5
2x 5.79GB matrix reloaded



cpu not @ 100% all the time, mostly @ around 90%

so, what u guys think im limited by? kent or by the hdd system?

whens the 8-core coming?

[lm358]

Just out of curiosity have you tried DVD-Rebuilder with Cinema Craft Encoder? I would be interested to know how fast you can do a 6+ pass re-encode of that DVD :-)

[cpu4you]

Wow, I can't wait to get my Kentsfield syste, up and running. But reading all your posts, seems that if I wanted to have a fast system I would need to buy expensive hardware/ Looks like I may only be able to use (1) of my (3) Kentsfields to build a system.

[lutjens]

On my Precision, I get 14 secs in Cinebench 32bit and 13 secs in 64-bit.

I'm gonna give the Matrix Reloaded a run through DVD Shrink as well and compare...

yup, unfortunately everything is held back by the hard drive..

may i suggest the new intel iop341 800mhz controller/s, thats what im getting next..

[NapalmV5]

On my Precision, I get 14 secs in Cinebench 32bit and 13 secs in 64-bit.

I'm gonna give the Matrix Reloaded a run through DVD Shrink as well and compare...

precision - 2x dual-core xeon?

cinebench 9.5 @ 32-bit winxp,

cinebench 9.5 is faster than cinbench 2003


yeh, please do post pic/s of dvdshrink and whatever else u wud like me to compare to urs.. feel free..

[Blacklash]

So Quad core is going to be too hot for a good air OC. I'd never be able to hold 3.5-3.6 on air. I was thinking about trying a Q6600 and now not so much. Wonder how water will handle these things.

[T07N]

that's uber fast. acera is too expensive!

nah, i never tried dvd-rebuilder & cce before, 1st time,

dvd-rebuilder v0.98.2 limited version @ less than 1-core
cce sp v2.70 trial @ 2-core

if dvd-builder+cce wud take full advantage of the hdd+cpu even @ 7 pass, be done in no time

let me know how it compares.. have no idea..

[NapalmV5]

So Quad core is going to be too hot for a good air OC. I'd never be able to hold 3.5-3.6 on air. I was thinking about trying a Q6600 and now not so much. Wonder how water will handle these things.

NapalmV5... what cooling are you using? Also... what was your overclocking experience like with the Kenty and the P5W64?

im using the cm r120 mini aquagate but on the kenty i cant really call it watercooling, highend air probably on par if not a little better..

its all about good contact/good cooling. at first at full load all 4 cores were running @ 100C each and the beast kept on working.. the heatspreader was badly concaved so i had it lapped and i was still not getting good contact untill i lapped the mini gate aswell.. now @ full load temps r around 70C @ 3.7 GHz

as far as the P5W64.. ever since ive gotten the silverstone op1000 psu its totally different story.. mobo components r running much cooler.. for me personally there is no better mobo for the quad-core as of now..

[NapalmV5]

that's uber fast. acera is too expensive!

tell me about it.. the 1210/1230/1231-which im getting soon + cache = 2k+$
