benching with the soundcard? lol

I was wondering what the heck that was doing there

Very nice on the new CPUZ... 1.55VTT You mean Vcore?

22X multi... it never worked for me... but not trying stuff isn't exactly the OCA way

Vcore and VTT.

I don't really have a dedicated daily driver......well on 2nd thought my laptop , but I can't put that soundcard in my laptop.

nice chip! faster then mine on single stage

[ny_driver]

There's more where that came from.
Might try a little more vcore or something for 1 more run before I tear it down and wait for new HD and the rest of my triple channel kit.

Also need to check under the block for moisture....the chiller has been on there a few days now and it was my first time sealing one of these in. All I used was eraser.

EDIT: here's what it looked like. Just the slightest bit of dampness on the towels right around the chip. Perfectly dry and sealed in tight IMHO.

Check out the thermal paste though, not sure how it got like that. I did use more than normal for some reason, but it looks weird. Has to be caused my moisture. I've never had that happen before, and I know it was squished down tight to the cpu....the surface of this chip is nowhere near as smooth as an AMD.

afterthought: I don't think it was seated good even though the temps were pretty good. Under load @ 4.8Ghz they were outrageous. There cannot be any insulation between the head of the block and the hold-down plate. NP.

Oh, ok. That makes sense

[ny_driver]

So I just tried running 32m @ 5100MHz(bclk 243)........did fine @ 5000MHz w/ only 1.506 vcore and 1.547 qpi.
1.537 vcore,
1.555 qpi,
1.685 ddr,
1.197 ioh,
1.540 ich
memory @ 971MHz 7-9-7-23-78
qpi link @ 2914
NB @ 4372.

It crashed BSOD ~ halfway through 32m. I then proceeded to lower the NB a notch to 3886 and it crashed BSOD part way through copy waza.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

raise trfc a couple notches?
what was the bsod code

[ny_driver]

No code it was just a quick BSOD then restart with failed OC messages.

The memory is fine in 32m up to 1050MHz @ those timings.

EDIT: ohh yeah I need to set it so it does not auto-restart upon BSOD.

[ny_driver]

I live for double posting.......

Anyways I got it to run pifast @
cpu=5100MHz
uncore/nb=4370
qpi link=2900
ddr=971MHz/7-9-7-23-78

vcore=1.53v
uncore/qpi=1.33v(dunno why I had it so high before)
ddr=1.69v
ioh=1.197v
ich=1.54v

(All these voltages may still be higher than necessary and causing insability)

Haven't tried spi yet with less uncore/qpi voltage. I should be able to run it at least as high because I'll only be using 1 core for that.

I'll report back later.
