Double holy shit

i'll triple that. IM super impressed with these D0's. Just wish I had the cash damn it!!!

I paid $2000 for my C0

Wetbehindtheears · Jun 12, 2009

Half price and miles better!! lol

wolf · Jun 12, 2009

So, so far im at 3200 mhz on the stock cooler.

160x20

Vcore: set in bios is 1.1575 .... droops to a little less but not much

all other settings on auto.

is this good/bad average? i have no idea what voltages i7's like at all.

mlee49 · Jun 12, 2009

Good! Most require over 1.2V for 150+. Should have some nice temps at that range too right?

n-ster · Jun 12, 2009

I would personally say that is good, but is average among D0s... Keep on tweaking to see if you can lower the voltage a little more\

can't go any lower. this will be my 24/7 setting

^ THAT is a good OC

so yeah took a lesson out of THAT book...

3600mhz now and 1.125 set in bios :toast:

all this with acceptable temps on a stock cooler :eek:

cant wait for 4ghz :cool:

n-ster · Jun 12, 2009

see now that is good! 3.6ghz

congratulations!

???? I have a C0 that will do 160 BClk on 1.2V. I thought most D0's did better.

wolf · Jun 12, 2009

initially it wasnt stable so i kept upping the vcore all the way up to 1.2875, and then took QPI off auto, and settled for 1.2750 QPI and 1.2575 VCore.

generally does the QPI need to be set higher or lower? i feel she can do this speed on lower volts still.

Generally it is believed that QPI and VCore should be as close together as possible for stability. We are near identical volts for 4gig

Nice cool overclock there!

cheers man :toast:

and it better stay cool that coolermaster V10 was pricey :banghead:

n-ster · Jun 12, 2009

I'm sure you can get it on lower clocks... if not, I would stick with 3.6ghz if I were you... or perhaps try 3.8 or something... or tweak the hell out of the 4ghz to make it lower Volts lol

wait I've noticed you haven't out Turbo on

or maybe you did and we don't see it cuz its not stressed? but if it is on, in that case it means 4.2ghz on that Voltage which is good! if the 3.6ghz was the same, that make it 3.78ghz with Turbo!

what if your vcore is like 1.4v+, is it safe to run a QPi that high?

Jakethesnake011 · Jun 13, 2009

I found a B batch D0 for 255 I am thinking about jumping onto it. How the B batches compared to A?

Binge · Jun 13, 2009

Batch has no reflection on performance. What you get varies from chip to chip in a large sense.

Fitseries3 · Jun 13, 2009

despite terrible temps its running pretty decent...

n-ster · Jun 13, 2009

hell yea its decent.... more than that

Now give us another 40k+ :rockout:

Fitseries3 · Jun 13, 2009

anyone know about the i7/xeon dualcore? w3503

i know its just an i7 900 with less cache, no HT and 2 less cores but anyone else think it would clock high?

http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1426752

t_ski · Jun 13, 2009

Just the fact that it has less cores sounds like it would be more likely to clock higher. That was the case between Core2 Duo and Quad.

Fitseries3 · Jun 13, 2009

yes but idk if the fact that i7 uses a single unified die for all 4 cores if killing 2 off on order to make a dualcore would cause any problems. i cannot find any OCing info on the cpu other than the fact that the higher mem multis are disabled. that makes no difference though... thats one of my secrets, use the lowest mem multi to get higher OCs

i say give me the 100 in your paypal

hmm i havent seen that cpu yet
maybe a typo ?

i will search the webs

Fitseries3 · Jun 13, 2009

its come and gone... the cpu that is.

Jakethesnake011 · Jun 13, 2009

Anyone know how those D0's are overclocking that Pao_revolt was selling on ebay for 300?
