Yeah, I was surprised after reading a few reviews. It's looks like a great cooler. Of course if it doesn't work, and you have to resort to watercooling, I shall declare victory!
All of 6319 for the Hunk-O-Junk™ in my sig (3.2GHz). At a very scary 1.5 volts and 4.2GHz, 8045 with my CD drive going beserk
looks like you have a good chip there though. Mine won't stay stable at over 4ghz. Not even with 1.5v going through him. I really wanted to crack 8k... grrrr
All you guys are getting really hot on my heels I'm gonna need to watch my back lol! PS Spreadie if your CPU does 4.5GHz Geekbench stable at 1.45v, that's pretty darn good. I tried 4.4GHz with mine and it needed 1.56v LOL
I think it's a great chip. It's prime stable at 4GHz with 1.25v - my 24/7 setup. 1.45v for 4.5GHz is great, but then it's a huge step up to 1.5125v for 4.6GHz; which is bad for the temps. I'd like to push it some more, but I'm sh!t-feared of killing it; so I shall concentrate a little more on memory bandwidth, now I know what the CPU can handle. First, I need to improve the cooling; with a spot of .
High 80s @ 4GHz sounds a bit rough mate. How much vcore are you giving it, and what cooler are you using?
I would, but I have exams and essays coming up in the new year, so i don't want to kill her... And I'm scared of mading the AMD guys cry
Sounds like auto vcore to me lol. My 920 has a tjmax of 94C and I took it to 94C about a week ago (not intentionally, I might add) and all that happened was BSOD and restart. Hitting tjmax for a split second isn't going to do any harm, as long as the voltage isn't excessively high when it happens.
That's what I was thinking. Yeah, I made a bit of a noob mistake last week; and one of my cores hit TJmax. My loop was hot after running Furmark on my 295, and my rad fans were still at 5v; but I went ahead and push the CPU pretty hard. Doing dumb sh!t like that will cost me a CPU one day. Luckily nothing happened, but it was only one core for a second or so.
I keep checking peoples results to see if they are getting close to me, if someone gets with in 200 points of me. I'll have to see what else I can pull out of the hat
is there a program that you can run this on 64bit that you dont have to pay for? i did a run on the 32 bit but obviously its not a true reading, pictures below
Did a little more reading and temps maxed at 68 this time. Was just wanting to see what kind of difference there would be in score so just set to 20*200 and left everything else auto. Set vcore to 1.28 now and using gelid tranquillo. Might continue having a play around, only way to learn really
Just got my new netbook today, scored 1731! I'm very impressed with AMD, for the first time in years. Points/kg chart perhaps? Mine scores 1081 p/kg, anyone want to weigh their PC? Lovely machine if anyone is looking for one, got mine for £269 inc. delivery.
