Xeon Owners Club

I didnt know XFX made X58 boards. Pretty snazzy looking.

You ran out of mice? :D
 
Bought some Kingston ValueRam DDR3 1600, 3 sticks of 8GB, just out of curiosity.

The ram is rated at 1600MHz, 11-11-11-30-2N at 1.5V

It can do 9-9-9-24-1N at 1680MHz with 1.5V easy...and it outperforms my HyperX modules...wtf did I just buy?!


24GB running pretty fast. And its dual rank aswell.

This has to be the cheapest looking ram ever. Now off to put some heatsinks on them, if i can frankenstein it :p

Ita a Xigmatek. I dont know the model as it is pretty old. I have searched google and google images. Its a really good cooler.

zip ties in X formation ?

that is last option. i would prefer to find a bracket. It has those 2 lovely screw holes available.
 
Been looking but so far no luck finding anything.
 
Dont try too hard....i already did before i asked here.

Given that these type of fittings are pretty universal i thought it would be easy enough...AM3 fitted ok as did 1156. I have dug deep in my (well organized ) boxes and i havent found anything. If it came with a 1366 fitting or adapter i am sure i would have kept it.

Brilliant. You know where its going too...;) It doesnt show or say anything about a 1366 fitting unfortunately.

I knew it was a good cooler, when i had it on an overclocked Athlon ii x4 630 the fan barely moved , even under load

the Xigmatek HDT-S1283 heatsink maintains a temperature of 16.8°C over ambient (for 50.7dBA noise) at full fan speed. This is an excellent result for an Intel heatsink, and thrusts the Xigmatek HDT-S1283 heatsink to the number one position in fact!

anyone got some?

it looks like a different fitting to me. The ones that Biff showed are the ones.

It's completely different (newer model w/black powder coated finish)- However, I have that model cooler and all of the mounting hardware sitting in front of me :)

I had the adapter kit @biffzinker posted but am not sure if I still do... I will try to look for it
 
I finally made the move to Windows 10 on an SSD for good. My cpu load temps have gone down in the same room by a few degrees. Anyone else had this? I'm hitting 71-72C now testing Small FFT in Prime, where as previously I was at 76C...:wtf:
 
Improved Multi-Thread performance within Windows 10 may have something to do with the temperature drop or it's more aggressive with the power management? It's why I switched power profile from balanced to high performance. The cores still drop to the C7 state on there own. I noticed the CPU package drops to only C2 state though.

Edit: Changing power profiles within Windows Control Panel - Power Options for the older Xeon CPU may or may not work however.

Hmm could be. I always run my OS in high performance mode, Vista, 7 and 10. When I do these tests I have all power saving features in the bios off, including C states, C1E and Speedstep.


The P6X58D bios adds offset voltage - when I enable C1E both cpu speed and voltages drop down. Something that wasn't possible before. Saweet.

That's nothing Caps, try this on for size. How low can you go?

nothing like that, thats for sure. I lowered my overclock today because the weather so warm.

My lowest idle was 35C and hottest 68C after 3 hours of GTAV @ 4.3ghz. I havent plugged my wattmeter in with my new GPU, i will do that tmrw.
