I recieved the rig today and it is crunching away as I type. Installed Ubuntu 14.04 on it and it seems happy. Thanks again @BarbaricSoul . Now to figure the ocing secret to this board. LoL. From what I read it is a tricky fool to oc. Your settings look as thought they are set and you can exit the bios and go back in and they are still there but the bios doesn't apply them or use them. I'll figure it out one day.

This one is running stock clocks as the bios is kinda weird. But I will get the clocks up. I may have to run it under win 7 for a short bit for testing purposes.

Well, 4.5GHz vs 3.2 is a 40% OC...if you can get it stable that's obviously a lot more output from it ;)

Performance per watt on the 3930k's left me wanting. I was partial to mild overclock + undervolt. The cpu+motherboard alone would take ~450w compared to my 2500k's+motherboard ~200w.

@ThE_MaD_ShOt, what will you be cooling it with? When overclocked my old 3930k saturated my watercooling loop.

450W? I have a hard time believing it was that much. I don't have any hard numbers, but according to HWMonitor, the 3930k @ 4.5 consumes anywhere from 150 to 170W while running WCG. I can't believe that the board + 2 sticks of RAM consumes close to 300W. I'd say that the CPU + motherboard should be a bit over 200W. My regular Sandy setups are ~125W for CPU + MB, OCed to the low-4GHz range.

Maybe my memory is failing me. I remember I got those numbers with my own killawatt. It was one of the reasons I decided to sell my 3930k. I even remember getting ~330 at stock too.


My numbers are totally system wattage. All other components besides the CPU and motherboard were the same.

It has one of these- http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Deepcool/Lucifer/

For me, that system ran at about 60'c with Linux, Mad Shot has a lot colder place to run it in (basement room with the heat shut off to it and an open window), so he'll get a lot better temps.

As for the OC'ing, I never had any issues OC'ing it with Windows, both in the BIO or using the ASUS tools to OC while the system is booted. When I put Linux on it, it ran 10'c cooler than when it had Windows, and I had no way to verify it was actually running at the OC'ed speeds (some of you may remember me posting for help about that).

The other 3930k system I have (the one I bought from you @james888 ) has one of these on it- http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Deepcool/Assassin/

This is what that system is running-

Under Linux the oc doesn't "stick" I can make all the setting I want in the bios and they stay set but it just doesn't boot at that speed. I can go back in the bios and my settings are still there it's just not applying them. I have to dig into it more. I have it set to 4.3 in the bios but it is running at 3.2 in the os. I may stick windows on it and play with it.

Well hello there temporary neighbor ;) that's too bad. I've been sick anyway, can't shake this cold virus thing, and it keeps coming back and with a vengeance :(

The wife has had one of those also. I grabbed some Airborne a few days ago and it has helped a ton for her. You might give it a try. Pop one in a glass of water each morning for 3 days, take a day break, and then repeat. They are packaged with 10 tablets in each tube so you should be able to knock it out before taking all 10.

Looked through my old posts to see how much my memory matched reality.

I have a bit of a conundrum. My game Ns2 loves very high single threaded performance. The higher the cpu clock the better. I can get this 3930k stable at a very beastly 4.8ghz@1.4v but it uses a ton of power, like ~100 watts more than stock. I will be crunching 24/7 so every watt does matter to an extent. So I am wondering do I go to a nice low overclock of 4-4.2ghz undervolted, or compromise at 4.4-4.5ghz moderate volts, or extreme performance 4.8ghz.
Seems really stable at 4.8ghz, the 3930k. It pushes my loop much harder as expected. With my fans at 100% at 4.8ghz I get 75c. I think that is as high as I will go. I have read that one can raise the bclk and lower multi for less volts needed. I might want to try that as it will produce less heat. Pics will be up tomorrow.

At 4.8ghz I was seeing about 100w more than at stock usage for total system power. I remember around stock with just cpu load like crunching I was getting about 330w pretty well. So about 450w total system usage with gpu idle sounds right, maybe rounded up from 430w.

I was wrong in remembering it being difficult to cool. My watercooling was saturated when it was at 4.8ghz. If I were to load my 7970 it would heat up the loop enough for the cpu to jump up 10c or more.

I still hold by my statement that a 3930k left me wanting for better performance per watt. This is not to say it is a powerhouse of a cpu, because it is. It by far is the most powerful cpu I have ever owned to date.

Excellent, I'm PM you my details and what airport to have my ticket available at.
Not a bad idea...........I was thinking more like $20 "Cdn" for gas. There are 5 to give away. Maybe I should start my own thread.:laugh:

Under Linux the oc doesn't "stick" I can make all the setting I want in the bios and they stay set but it just doesn't boot at that speed. I can go back in the bios and my settings are still there it's just not applying them. I have to dig into it more. I have it set to 4.3 in the bios but it is running at 3.2 in the os. I may stick windows on it and play with it.

Did you find the issue? If not I'd like to know what you get when you type the following command in a terminal window when the CPU is crunching.

Code:
watch -n 1 "lscpu | grep 'MHz'"

And that was a great challenge, after the first day I though Seti was going to win it easy but nope, XtremeSystems gave them a whoopin.:laugh:

I get this when running lscpu | grep 'MHz' on my J1900 machine:
CPU MHz: 2899.968
CPU max MHz: 2900.0000
CPU min MHz: 1600.0000

So, don't take everything you see as the truth. :p
Powertop seems to be a nice program to see things, especially for Intel CPU's.

I get 3.2 or around that. I actually was using that comand to see if maybe the clock sped would throttle up under load. But no dice. Also no fix either yet. For some reason it just won't use any multiplier settings I set in the bios. I am not to worried about it right now considering it is plugging along at a tad less ppd then my dual 1366 rig. 10 to 12k ppd is pretty good for it.
