a tip for you, if you really want the 4 ghz:
You need extreme cooling... a peltier element with a water loop probably will make your proc run4, or maybe even more... i needed VERY low temps for my 4.2 ghz valid

By April 28th MX-3 then, didn't seen the AC's Ceramique in any Israeli PC stores near me. Will be applied on CPU (hope this one is 125W & not 140W TDP) & on mirror finished base of VenomousX.
Only Crysis @ VeryHigh 1920x1200 2+hours run brings the CPU to frightening 58-59C when @ 3.9GHz. That was my case. Well, Crysis & 3DMark11 @ Extreme. Once i'll install VenomousX on my 965BE & OC it to 4.0/4.1GHz i'll let you know how's it fairs out for me, deal ?

It is a 1090T with TT Frio and I'll be running one fan.
Gigabyte board too, so it has Easytune.
Looks like that isn't gonna happen until I get a new case.
At Idle with fans turned all the way up on my Frio I'm at
37c CPU, 32c System. My case is the problem I am almost positive.
To much stuff in such a cramped area. Not much room for air
to circulate. Oh well I have time.

Can you get us a pic from the side of your PC looking in? Side panel off please. Let's take a peek at it...

Yep. This is the only one I have I got off my phone. Since that pic was taken I moved the ram out to the furthest slots and installed the other fan. Oh and I run it with the side cover off because it won't fit because of the Frio.


Thanks



Image doesn't seem to work, but I think this link will.

Can you move your HDD down to the bottom? This will allow air to flow by there to the CPU cooler, right now it's all going to the bottom of the case. That should help a bit.

Also which way is the trio exhausting? Up or towards the back?

Towards the back of the case.
Where all the input's and outputs are.
It is running with the side cover off though so it has ability to exhaust
out of the side. Next case is going to have a large side fan for sure.
I may be able to do that with the HDD. I'll check when I get home.
What are some of the other idle temps people are getting at stock
clock with the Frio if I may ask ? Maybe I'm just expecting to much of
a huge difference at Idle.

Can't drop it video card is in the way. I need a new case.

No prob, 28/29 April OC'ing session - here i come, place your bets. Just hope the CPU is 125W TDP rev.C3. BTW : NV released ForceWare 270.61 WHQL driver - i'll see how my OC'd CPU & GPUs perform with this, so this becomes even better. Place your bets, Israeli 4+GHz OC - here i come.

Turbo

How does the turbo work in the Hex cores ? Does it kick in while gaming
or is there a setting in Bios for it ? Just wondering if there are gaming benefits to it.

System Specs

Turbo Core is there to boost performance if there are 2 or more cores idle & boosting it to say from 3.2GHz to 3.9 or 4.0GHz in any app not just gaming. When you reach the - say - 4.1GHz - no need for TurboCore. Example : Crysis Warhead - uses say 4 out of 6 cores; 2 cores idle; when that occurs - bam, you had 3.2GHz (in 1090T's case) now it's 4.0GHz. Might be wrong bout 3.2GHz to 4.0GHz issue, but that's the principle. Bout such option in BIOS ? Probably there is, atleast i know that my mobo (M4N98TD-EVO) after BIOS update detects all those hex-cores but never DL'd nor updated BIOS for hex-core since mine is 965BE, a "mere" quadie. lol Take care.

Ok, than take a look at this:

And thats the way to push core by core to 5Ghz - Air

Its air, so it does count...

With K10Stat i test the OC-ability of every CPU, core by core...

I can go with my 2nd and 3rd core to the 4.8 stabile,
but the 1st and 4th only to 4.6, 4.7 only for CPU-Z val. (for now).

your lucky achieve 4.2ghz 100% stable, any higher would overheat the cpu or vrms etc, and yeah i agree kstat its a good program to test thats about it, reaching those clocks dont mean jack if its not stable

this is why i can overclock to higher limits then most people without overheating vrms and chokes etc

It does exactly nought for me :/
The only advantage I got from it, was a slightly (1 degree or so) lower mobo temp.
