Would you consider this a golden chip?

Hey guys, worked on getting my OC stable and at the lowest vcore i could today. Would you all say this is a golden chip?

Thanks Yeah mine does also, words like that aren't built into the android dictionary so when you add it it seem's to capitalize them.

Thanks man, i actually got it off ebay

Also why would you suggest linpack over IBT? Aren't they pretty much the same thing?

I was just speaking "you" as in general like anybody.

I thought they were pretty much the same thing but i guess not

50 runs of IBT is usually pretty good isn't it?

It maybe good but for sure not golden. Here is one from a guy in germany that deserves to be called "golden"

around the same vcore as yours but 4200 MHZ (watercooled)



i7-920 4500Mhz (watercooled, roomtemp 16C)

Wow, i definitely need to push this thing further then and see what i can get out of it for clocks. Only thing holding me back would be temps. If i could get a rasa kit or something i could probably push further.

Yeah that first shot is sweet! Has a strong IMC too (4000MHz uncore).

Still OP... you have a solid chip.

What does raising the uncore actually do?

golden would be 4ghz stock volts, but good chips are still not easy to come by

What's stock volts on a 920? I can't find my VID anywhere on this chip.

I think your setting is the optimum balance between voltage, temp and performance - I bet you won't remark that extra 100 or 200 MHZ in allday-use but the increased vcore will eat more energy and produces more heat.

I think the 920 I had wasn't able to do 4 GHZ 4C/8T below 1.28V or around that. But it was nice for some playing under singlestage cooling

Jeesh that's just insane!

Im a folder though so that extra 200mhz from 4.2 would help What do you think i could get to 4.2 at for voltage?

I am just folding with my GPUs haha But yeah you got a point there then. Well I think when you can manage the heat produced with the higher voltage 4.2 should be possible between 1.26 and 1.3V.
