TLM, are you able to boot up at 5GHz with all 4 modules/8 cores enabled and run some benches? If so, how hot are your temps reporting on the nh-d14?

I'm so tempted to get a 8120 and asus chv simply because I want something to tinker with, this thread is making me want to do just that. :)

Damn erock thats really good.
 
More reasonable voltage. 100 watt difference between 4.7ghz and 5ghz and I think I can bring the voltage down a bit at 4.7ghz.

I will go ahead and sub this thread will have a chip soon enough will be h2o cooled by my big setup.

^the plan.

Nice clock e. Trying to understand why you didn't set IBT to 8 threads though instead of auto.

I did during other runs and it makes no difference. IBT stresses the cores correctly, plus that's why I was showing the cores at load in the task manager.
 
what would you estimate power draw at ?

With the other hardware in my system specs minus the 2500k and AsRock board.

5ghz under load at 1.475v 500w

4.7ghz under load at 1.375v 400w - idling at 220w

that is insanely high, your poor power bill.
 
That's quite actually on par to an i7 965 @ ~3.6ghz w/ a gtx580 (and odds are performs nearly the same maybe better). Just a tad higher ....

I've seen worse plus, I can afford it. It's this or my money goes into high performance car parts and gas. I bought this chip well knowing what it is. ;)
 
Cool...just as long as the cops don't bust down the door looking for the grow room! :roll:

Temps are surprisingly good until you drop a load on it. I can get windows to boot at around 4.9 GHz, but it gets ugly really quickly when trying to run anything.

I'll see how mine does, but I am not expecting much.
 
those are amazing temps, are you using the LC that comes optional with the new FX processor?

What's the longest you have left burnin on ? Have you gotten heat saturation at any point ?
 
has anybody tried to fold/crunch with this chips?

Yeah it was mentioned in our TPU F@H thread, their rather unimpressive, slower than a 1090 on -Bigadv
 
I would like to request that someone disables four cores to see if you can achieve a higher clock with less power consumption, please.
 
Thanks erocker. Just also wanted to check what are your ambient and also are you using the additional 4 pin CPU power plug on the board?

Oh and one more thing, how are you checking power consumption?
