DrNippin's Air Adventures
Been real busy the last few days but finally had time to tweak with my setup. Don't laugh as this is my 1st experience with an i7. I don't know what the norm is with these but here is my 2nd overclock. The 1st one was at 4ghz. Looks good to me. :D

Oh man uber nice vcore :D Have you had a chance to play with the memory yet?
|
No. I'll get there just want to figure out what she has in her. BRB.
|
Cool beans. Still that's really really low vcore to have HT on. Man hurry and get the 1366 mounting from EU :D
|
Sweet... I can't wait until I have mine to play with!!
|
Shit dude, thats good overclock for that voltage on an i7 from what i've seen. keep pushin

After all you had to deal with I sure hope so!
|
What kind of temps are you seeing nip? Does it seem to run cooler than people were posting with CO/C1?
|
Here is a comparison on stock settings with turbo enabled.
http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...rell/Stock.jpg @ chuchnit - It is pretty hot in my house now but temps were in the norm. Cores are 39 at stock but this morning they were 32 at stock. Just shows you how much hotter it is now. |
You make me want one :)
|
OK here is a 1st overclock on me RAM. Timings are a lil loose. Will tighten them up in a minute.

|
Dayum! :D
|
Dude I think you scored a killer chip. Keep pushing that memory and uncore :D
|
Did some basic wPrime runs as well as a Vantage runs just for 8-10 point pickup. I have way more in this, just a basic overclock on it beat out my e8600 on these benches. :D
|
Very nice runs buddy. I'm jealous :D
|
Whoa!!! This thing stomps a mud hole in wprime. Set the thread count to 8 and watch it take off. Mind you these my runs were only at 4300mhz!!! This cpu gets a lil tougher to overclock the higher you get. Gettin to 4300mhz is a breeze. Past that and it is a tweakin game. Might be at this longer than what originally thought. I have to get the clockin down 1st before I throw the pot on it.

Dayum!! Is that still at 1.65v for the memory? Give me some 7-8-7 love :D

I gotta learn about these memory settings!
|
Well that is about it for now as I have to go to work. 22.4 points picked up from just wPrime and Vantage. That was with a mild 4.3ghz clock, no RAM tweaks just the basics set on it, mild GPU clocks as well as no tweaks on them. :D
|
Looks like u have some nice point gains in ur future drnip. :D
|
|
Nothing short of impressive... Great job and great combo
|
That's on air with it 80 degrees outside and my windows are open so it is almost as hot in here! Wish I could do that 22x mult like some can on their mobos.
|
Hot dammed, lookin like a killer whale of a chip!
|
Oh and I booted that speed. No FSB here.
|
HOLY CRAP!!!!:confused3:
That is impressive.... Hope I get a good chip like that when I get mine. |

...and it keeps going and going.
http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...rell/920_6.jpg That's set to 2150 in BIOS windows only showin 2146. WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! |
makes me sick and happy for ya at the same time.
|
You asked me to up the speed and volts on the RAM. :splits:
|
Yeah I did :D Have you tried 2000mhz CL7-8-7-20?

Nah. I'll give her a whirl tomorrow. |
BIG CONGRATS NIP!
Now someone explain this ram stuff to me!!! |
As you already know RAM goes like:
DDR3 1033 DDR3 1333 DDR3 1600 DDR3 1800 DDR3 2000 and what not with a few extra's in between. I have DDR3 2000 but have them runnin at DDR3 2150 in BIOS and in windows it is runnin at DDR3 2147.9 which is 1073.9mhz. You just double the MHz to equal the MT/s. So 1073.9MHz = 2147.9 MT/s. Not to mention I have them runnin that at cas 8. |

So your basically just putting in the Mhz like I did in my bios for 1800 and then telling it what timings you want. I just didn't know if there were other settings involved or not.
I do see what your saying though....in cpu-z my ram says 900Mhz and doubled that is 1800. Ima learnin.... I think LMAO! Your FSB: DRAM says 2:10 and on mine it says 1:2.... What does that setting in the bios do for your ram? |
