6 x QX9770, 25L ln2 in Bangkok Come and SEE...

[Nosfer@tu]

Currently I’m in Thailand, Phuket to be more precise. My woman and I have been saving up for almost 8 months now, what a wonderful place. The people of Thailand are to king and I have not been any place in the world and experience kindness like here. It is simply amazing. Well back to topic and enough with all the praising
About 3 months ago I started writing over msn with Zolkorn from OverclockZone.Com He accualy invited me to come to Bangkok and overclock with him and his team. It tog some time to convince my woman, but it was quite easy I must say.
So we coordinated it and ordered air tickets, everything went smooth and arrived here in Bangkok at around 10.25 Friday morning.
First I was given access to a lot of OverclockZone.Com´s hardware. We went and bougth Celly so I could try and get in the competition the Overclock3D & Komplett's "Best Overclocker" Competition. Rules changed a few days before I left for vacation so Denmark was allowed to enter. I REALLY wanted to, and I think I achieved a great result. But more info in a few days, still a few days left of the deadline.
Later that night after a WOUNDERFULL evening on a Thai restaurant, I must say they treat you like a king down here. They always “Steal” your glass and refill it for you.
Damm, once more off topic, Tee (Tawat owner of OverclockZone.Com) came by, he brought a few QX9770, 2 x Phenom and a lot of hardware for ZolKorn to review.

I knew what I wanted to do, sleep was not an option, and with 18 L of Ln2 left, sleep was NOT important

He arrived direct from a weeding and we spent almost 2 hours speaking about hardware, Gigabyte and a lot of other interesting things.
When he left we went trait to the Gigabyte GA-P35-DQ6, mounted a random QX9770, k|ngp|n Dragon EVO 2.3 Cpu pot.
A lot of Vaseline was applied and powered up. But no boot, so we had to Flash to f7b bios that supports Yorksfield. We were also rid of any unfortunate coolbug problems, I believe it is because of the Motherboard, because we could boot at ALL temps, just not below – 147 C.
Nothing much to say, well we spent almost 2½ hours with bad SuperPi timmings, Issue was that we had not installed ATI Display driver

Setup system :
Intel QX9770 ES
Gigabyte GA-P35-DQ6
G.Skill F2-8000PHU2-2GBHZ
Thermaltake 1200 Watt ThoughPower
ATI Radeon 7000 PCI.
k|ngp|n Dragon EVO 2.3 Cpu pot.

We [Zolkorn, PondTrang and I Nosfer@tu] achieved 5941.55 Mhz. Suicide Shot

http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc.php?id=272158
2. Fastest Yorksfield Validation in the world.

&

SuperPi 1.5 Mod 1M = 8.297 sek

The 6. Fastest Time in the world.

We ran out of Ln2, so decided to go for SS shot of 6000 Mhz, in the hunt for 6000 Mhz on Yorksfield, only 58.45 Mhz more and it would have been ours 


After the nights bench session we are all very happy

Thx alot for your time, we hope you enjoyed the small article here from Bangkok.

[jimmyz]

[Cupcake]

Holy crap send me a few

[T_M]

Congrats guys
Which i had that hardware to play with.

[S1mon-]

I wish I could do that! In a few years I guess (I'm 18 hehe)

[railmeat]

actually in o.c. dollars it is 0$ usd INTEL sent samples

[Charles Wirth]

So close.

If those are all from the same batch it would be interesting to see if they all love those temps.

[TheMysticWizard]

So... how does one go about receiving ES chips from Intel... I mean they are samples, but how do you... apply, or whatever... to receive one?

I would suppose you'd state the website/institution you were reviewing the CPUs for, and if Intel deemed it legitimate, they send you some samples. Of course, it's always technically illegal to sell samples, but it's only more good PR for Intel.

[jo2007]

ZolKorn looks like a pimp :P. But on topic: GJ!!!

[xt0m]

Excellent job, boyos! ..at least now one of us danes is prepped for playing with the QX9770 @ DHW 2007

[SIOUX]

Nice one peter but remember...no kissing in public places in thailand

[Solarfall]

looks like you had some great fun.. congrats on the awesome numbers guys

[xt0m]

I believe it is because of the Motherboard, because we could boot at ALL temps, just not below – 147 C.

Like in cooler than -147c? Or as in quite related to the issues we had with my X38-DQ6 at the Intel Labs @ Stockholm?

[Rovtar]

nice

[Lumske]

that suckes, to be so close to 6Ghz and then round out of ln2:S

but still nice one great job peter

[Nosfer@tu]

wow 6x QX9770 ES

Congrats guys.. seems like alot of folks run out of LN2 before the fun is over hehe

hehe yes. I did not expect that we would eat such a huge amount of ln2 up.
But temps are +26 - +32 so it must have some kind of impact.
Also we where very lucky with the himidity Zolkorn told me. Only 40 % and we managed to bench for 3 hours on the small E430.
YES We knew there would be a 2 x 9770 but then Tee (Tawat owner of OverclockZone.Com) brougth 6

And we had about 18 liters of ln2, it lasted from 02.30 to 09.00 in the morning. My girl slept at the sofa hehehe

awesome, looks like a great time, make sure you don't mistake the celly for a 9770.... INTEL wouldn't like that lol

HEHE no I have the small Celly with me. I would have like to exchange it for a 9770 but im no theif

Holy crap send me a few

Would love to, But not mine Intel Thailands

Congrats guys
Which i had that hardware to play with.

You will in time, you are very skilled and a truly nice guy im told

I wish I could do that! In a few years I guess (I'm 18 hehe)

We all did when we where 16

honestly how do u ppl aford these?thats $9,000 usd(just in cpus).

we dont buy 200.000 Dollar cars
but in this case they are samples.

actually in o.c. dollars it is 0$ usd INTEL sent samples

So close.

If those are all from the same batch it would be interesting to see if they all love those temps.

I will try and make sure we get that info for you Charles, Now that we acheaved 5940 Mhz on a Yorksfield, I will call you by your sir name heheh

So... how does one go about receiving ES chips from Intel... I mean they are samples, but how do you... apply, or whatever... to receive one?

Work hard and show that you have the skills 10 Procent luck and 90 hardwork.

I would suppose you'd state the website/institution you were reviewing the CPUs for, and if Intel deemed it legitimate, they send you some samples. Of course, it's always technically illegal to sell samples, but it's only more good PR for Intel.

Selling samples will get you no where. Breaking NDAs will get you no where. Staying truy to your word and keeping agrements will get you every where. We are only men/women of our word

ZolKorn looks like a pimp :P. But on topic: GJ!!!

I told him to get hair like snoopdog He is truly a freind for live. So kind to me and my woman And his bother

Excellent job, boyos! ..at least now one of us danes is prepped for playing with the QX9770 @ DHW 2007

Yes maybe now we can have somewhere to bench?
We migth be able to bencmark with Techsweden at dreamhack next week. But currently we only have 2 enty tickets, and a Volvo XP90 awaiting with Xtom inside the min I land In denmark Again.

Anybody want to help OCTeamDenmark ???

Nice one peter but remember...no kissing in public places in thailand

HEHE We dont care, we have GodFather ZolKorn with us and his Crew

looks like you had some great fun.. congrats on the awesome numbers guys

Thx my freind, will you be at Dreamhack ?

Like in cooler than -147c? Or as in quite related to the issues we had with my X38-DQ6 at the Intel Labs @ Stockholm?

No colder than -147 would give us cold bug, but this is with a brand new bios, and the K probe was only taped on the Pot, so it migth have been a few C off.

[Misko]

Great oc gathering , how did u choose ~6Ghz one, all on ln2 or u first try them on air, and the best one then put under ice?
