i3 530 + Giga H55-UD3H on air

[Mad222]

I Just got this chip & MB yesterday. The retail price is around USD125 for i3 530 here in HK & not sure about the MB.

Disabled the onboard VGA, I started to oc with care as people said this baby is fragile. 32nm makes a remarkable difference in Temp. When I hitted 4.6G @ 1.44v, the Temp. was just about some 30c. It's quite a good imrpovement as compared to the old 45nm.

The mb was easy to handle with. I thought this small MB could not do much in OC, but it surprised me though.... low volt !

My config.
i3 530 32nm
Giga H55-UD3H
OCZ 2133 Limited Edition
OCZ 1000w 80+
OCZ SSD Vertex 60G
Thermalright 120 ex
Room Temp. 18c

Yes, my 120 ex is quite dirty....I know !


4G 20x200 @ 1.184v PI1m/3DM06


4.4G 22x200 @ 1.312v PI & 3DM06



4.5G 22x205 @ 1.36v PI 1m


4.62G 22x210 @ 1.44v Pi 1m & 3DM06


4.7G 22x214 @ 1.456v Pi 1m


4.7G 22x214 @ 1.568v 3DM06


4.8G 22x219 @ 1.568v PI1m


226 BCLK @ 4.97G CPUZ Validation

I read in another forum that the i3 didn't outperform the old dualcores, but my e8500 @ 4.42GHz only gets 10.63 on superpi, where your i3 gets 9.547
What were yr 3d06 results? Mine with msi gtx280 oc managed 19,981.

I was so lazy that I did not complete all tests of 3DM06.
Ok....let me get a gtx280 & try later !

Yes, this chip runs PI pretty fast with high QPI & 4 threads.

SPI is singlethreaded :p

Anyways, good to see H55 is also a decent clocker.

Yes, of course
Still working on this mb/chip with high QPI & 4T open to see how things go.

mad, waiting for your LN2 trial

mad, waiting for your LN2 trial

I'll try to put it on LN2 sometime next time !

How about MAX CPU Temp @ 4.7 (3DMark06)

Nice Run M8
Welll When U Move To LN2 See Over 6000Mhz On Test

Hi ViVid
Actually, I was planning to put it on LN2 next week. But we, as addited ocers, just could not resist the temptation of nice chips. Our Team has tested it today.

5.87G with 267 BCLK for the first run, think not so bad. I have a gut feeling that this chip can reach 6G @ lower volt.

whau, nice work.
