Got to love the Mega series.

Doesn't fail to impress me.

While we're talking about temps...

The Athlon II's have actual temp sensors on the core, right? My Kuma doesn't have core temp sensors—all I get is socket temp

 

[(FIH) The Don]

maybe the sensor is dead? it happends sometimes

I only got Socket Temp with my AII X2 so maybe its just a shot in the dark

 

[(FIH) The Don]

yay, the first part for my cruncher has arrived

 

[p_o_s_pc]

nice board. What socket is that? I think thats the board i was going to grab when i was looking at the i7 860 (if i am thinking the right board)

 

[(FIH) The Don]

its this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130240&cm_re=cd53-_-13-130-240-_-Product

thats the board i almost bought before 3d sent me a PM with the great offer on the Rampage II Gene lol Should be a nice rig. What CPU you going to be running?


btw my i7 has been crunching for ~10hrs 100% without 1 problem since switching to Windows 7 64bit

 

[(FIH) The Don]

i hope i can get a cheap i5 750 next month, have spend way to much on hardware this month :lol:

so next month i'll be buying either a 750 or a i5 6xx, with HT, and 1 or 2 sticks or ram, nothing fancy, just to make it work.


great dude, what was the problem then?

Looking good. Did you use tripod for the shoot? Low noise for a Canon ISO 1600 (that specific model, not all Canons, not trying to start a war). Board look a bit empty

 

[(FIH) The Don]

yeah i do uhm its a eos 1000d and i'm not very good with it

yeah it looks empty, but it will soon be filled with some things

 

[mstenholm]

I know it is a EOS 1000d, shoot at 1/3", F9. That was the long exposure and the little blur that made me think that you used a tripod.

Since you now have a country tag assigned to your name I can inform you that at the first update of today were 7th overall for that update (guess who were #1). It is easier to race against Denmark then TPU ;

should be a nice setup with decent PPD
the problem was aparently a software problem when running windows XP. I didn't change anything other then install Win 7 and set everything in the BIOS back to the setting i had for 3.7ghz and ran LinX 500x (~10hrs IIRC) and another 25x just to be sure. Also added a 2nd fan to my heatsink for push/pull. now i need to get the rig back in the case maybe i should paint my 300 again and then put it in there.

i must learn the settings of my cameraXD i dont really take that many pictures, still need to learn how to position the light, and etc.

haha i guess you are n1 i will be putting up some nice numbers soon i hope, hope ill be getting the AM3 board this week for my other phenom II 965

i can put up a q8200 for about a week, i'm at a friends house while he is on vacation

dude that just sounds VERy annoying?

well just sand the paint down a little, and then give it a black coat? it always looks nice imo

 

[mstenholm]

You had your share of problems p_o_s. Hope that it will run for 30.000 hours only interrupted by the bi-annual cleaning.

 

[p_o_s_pc]

Supreme0verlord is right on me. If i have another day of the i7 giving me problems he will for sure overtake me

You had your share of problems p_o_s. Hope that it will run for 30.000 hours only interrupted by the bi-annual cleaning.

I agree i have had my share of problems. I hope it will run only being interrupted by cleaning and upgrades

dude that just sounds VERy annoying?

I'm thinking about doing that. Its red right now but i'm not really liking the red anymore. But i also did my old case in black so i was kinda wanting a change... Maybe a nice gloss black will look nice. the old case was a flat black... so its kinda a change then

Stop running test, just crunch then you can keep him off.

I have been blessed with no blue screen, no nothing and I'm running 4 GHZ at 1,184 now (i7-920 D).

 

[theonedub]

On the topic of OCing, my internet was down for 7 hours, unfortunately it was while I was sleeping so I did not mess with my clocks. I think I will actually keep them where they are, nice mix of temp and performance.

My Phenom 965 only has one temp avail. Its actually not the socket temp- it has a single temp sensor for all four cores.

You have a kick-ass cooler and good board and you settle for 3,51 GHz? Is it very warm in your room? What are your temps? I (know different CPU) have 20,7 C at my fan inlet and less then 60 C on the cores (HWmonitor). I'm "bless" with a workshop where there right now is 6.5 C. The rig goes there tomorrow. I might try 21x200 @ 1.20 V, close the door and come back later.

Edit: Is it the i860 or "the other one" that you stopped fiddeling with?

 

[theonedub]

Its my i7. Its winter time and I rarely run the heat, so its very cool right now. Hottest core is 51C and the socket temp is 47C.

I'm done running test. I just had to be sure everything was going to be stable this time. i have only had the rig for a few days so its normal for me to have bugs to work out for like the first week or 2 anyways

I loaded hwmonitor and it says it's the core temperature, and the temp is the same for both cores, but it's impossible to be at this temp... it's at like 21c load, which is lower than ambient.

What does your temp say?

Meh, if it's not crashing, noticeably throttling or smoking, it doesn't matter, you're fine. lol.

I agree with that statement

Im using Core temp and its reads as 49C loaded.
