    A chip they picked up in china is enough to make me sceptical!

    well that's expected with their "wowzers 3Deee tri-force-gate" design.

    as i said when i first seen their marketing slides, it's got higher heat density => more heat in a smaller area.

    Much higher heat output and very little performance increase over SB... is it really going to be worth buying if you already have SB? Not really.

    HOWEVER, I do take all of this with a pince of salt until the chips are released and we see more reviews.

    Time for AMD to start fighting back!

    Been a few people saying its like amd bulldozer loves ln2 but normal people won't get close

    4.7 ghz overclock and they hit 98c lol

    That's pretty heavy

    There's gotta be something wrong with their sample, right? :worried:

    So I wonder what the temps would be on my liquid setup... Swiftech Apogee X2.

    i5k 4.9ghz and I get 65 - 67c with prime 95 after 10 mins.

    Ouch thats hot!!

    My 2500K @ 4.8ghz 1.395v on air would be a maximum of 70c per core single fan and 60c push/pull.

    My 2700K @ 4.8ghz 1.410v tops out at 71c per core under water, using 2 35mm rad's, but on my 60mm rad with fans at 5v the temps were topping out at 60c per core.

    After 1 or 2 hours of prime95

    On Topic

    I think they have a poor chip there as I have seen CPU-Z shot's etc of 3770K's doing 5.0ghz with 1.35v and hitting temp's of around 70c on air, but I am not sure how legit they are as they were on rather suspect sites a while ago.

    I am to be honest not to worried about the temps of Ivy Bridge simply because mine will be shoved under water anyway.

    And this is where you have failed. The issue is not the cooling system itself, the problem is the too high density at too small area. In other words - the problem is the heat transfer between the chip itself and IHS. It doesn't matter if you put water or air cooling on top of IHS, when the issue is that there is simply not enough CPU core surface area making contact with IHS.

    From what I have heard there have been quite a few of these hitting high temps

    Two things I'd like to warn you guys

    1) Not every board reads or is set to read the CPU temp probe the same. This is not a dig at ASRock in reference to this article, just stating you cannot compare motherboards directly.

    2) We know TT's chip is ES, not retail. At least wait for retail and other people overclocking first. For starters, Intel wouldn't be rolling out more Ultrabooks successfully or planning Knights Bridge on 22nm if it was another Pentium D.

    Yup, that's great if you have an i5K that reaches 4.8 on 3.395. Mine needs considerably more volts to reach 4.9.

    After 20 mins temps have dropped to 63 to 64. The first core always seems to be lower... 55c right now while the other cores are 62 to 63c. My cooling system will see a gradual drop in temps rather than an increase as the fans spin up to load speed.

    In the time it's taken me to type this... first core is 52c, remaining cores 62c. That's with a cpu voltage of 1.504 (varying because it's offset+)

    I might see if I can reduce the volts since I am now 2 bios revisions on...

    Exactly. The TDP is 77w right? So there isn't any reason why they would roll out processors that pump out massive heat for retail. It must be sample/system issues.

    I'm probably going to stick with my 2500K, but the one thing I am interested in is having Thunderbolt on a PC board...but only if it can output the GPU as well (Bindi, is this ever happening?)

    Temperatures don't look great, though I'd hold out and see what happens with final launch CPUs...I'm thinking this is an early sample issue?
