TPU's Core i7 Overclocking and Feedback

[Chicken Patty]

Still got my old C0 chip steaming along, even on air she benches at 4,2gig on less than 1.3V with temps never going out of the 60's, had a play earlier today, got her to 4.4gig on 1.4V but she was getting a bit toasty there, I ran 2006 at 4.2gig with just one of my 4890's as I had not run the bench in like a year! ...............

That's a D0 in disguise, who you B/S'ing I still remember that chip from earlier this year. It's amazing for a C0

It's the longest I have ever owned a Cpu

Yep, it's been a while dude. With a C0 like that it makes it really hard to want a D0.

So you just put Microcool mini-sinks on those four chips? I might have some BGS sinks laying around...

I think he said it came like that, not sure.

so much info in this screenshot from the evga CES video. this is from the XS CES party...

anyone want to point out what im talking about?

 

[Chicken Patty]

The CPU speed?

 

[Fitseries3]

theres a ton of info on how to setup the evga bios' for high OCs there. it also shows what voltages are needed. these can be scaled down for lower clocks.

also notice the HIGH bclk.

really high vcore to.

 

[Fitseries3]

its on LN2 so not a problem.

i wouldnt run that high vcore on air or water

Me to
We love frying some of intels and AMD selections !!!!!

 

[Chicken Patty]

But that CPU speed is pretty high don't think I've seen the Xeons or i7's clock that high. You know what CPU they benching there FIT?

 

[Fitseries3]

i think its actually a i7 870 on a p55 but volts and settings are very close to x58

 

[SummerDays]

It's difficult to see the exact CPU voltage on that picture.

 

[Fitseries3]

1.95 vcore eventual

1.76875 vcore boot

 

[Chicken Patty]

So it has a vcore setting for booting and one for windows?

 

[Fitseries3]

well you could say it like that yes.

now try it on your board

 

[Chicken Patty]

I don't have an i7 anymore

I could not see where he said that. But if he did, we have the same motherboard (EVGA Classified E760), and mine does not have them. I want to check these chips with my IR thermometer when I get home.

 

[Chicken Patty]

Like I said I wasn't sure, well let him confirm.

 

[Fitseries3]

theres a few more places. PM me and i'll tell you

 

[t_ski]

PM sent

 

[t_ski]

Chips shown in the pic run about 25-27C if anyone is interested.

 

[Fitseries3]

at high OCs they get real hot. try 2000mhz+ on the ram

 

[t_ski]

I believe it
