You guys should really drop down to 2 cores for the 2d benches and increase the cpu clocks.

Depends on the cpu but if you take a look at the recent Gulftown 2d top spot holders, they've all dropped their gulftowns down to two cores ht off and they are running the smack down on 2d records. I dropped mine for 01 and it puts less of a temp load on the cascade allowing me to run away with it to 5.5ghz versus 5.2ghz 6c12t.

Had mine up to 5626Mhz (29 x 194) @1.68v and ran a 2.82 wprime32, but couldn't get a pic in time before it BSOD :( Rom was my witness though ) :D

I'd die around -131C and come back to life at -126C so I'm thinking it's the board not the chip. If I have time before I leave for Denver I'll try swapping boards and see what happens.

will try 2c2t tonight for some spi 1m and pifast :) hopefully get some 32m on cascade tomorrow. Waiting on the SOC 5870

Now that the holiday weekend is coming to an end, I'll be packing up the CPU to ship out tomorrow for RMA. (OEM from the egg, btw - hopefully they don't give me a hard time when they receive the chip). Praying I get a low CB chip next time to do some good 2D benches. I'll try 2 cores then.

Might slap a pot on a 3870 to use up the last few liters of LN2 tonight before I pack it up.....may nab a trophy or two if I'm lucky.

I'll leave some easter candy right here :thumbsup:

CBB -125 CB -150 with 2c2t, lower CBB with no ht but higher cold bug ftw

Very nice, thats an A or B batch chip?

Splave 04-04-2010 06:20 PM

B batch, max after an hour was 13.66 :) hit a wall though so thats the best for now

superpi I cant get close to my pifast speed which has always been the opposite for me. 183x33 I get not convergent in sqr where as I can bench pifast 188x33. Any ideas?

Kal-EL 04-04-2010 06:21 PM

Hey, look who dropped a couple cores! :D

Howz that working for yah splavey?
