WPrime Benchmark

heh, that's really 4.4ghz

What had more influence on your Core i7 920 achieving 4.4GHz and a 32M wPrime score of 5.834 sec: the Asus Rampage II Extreme, your watercooling solution or both? Maybe you have another explanation.

I have a Thermochill pa120.2 waiting for me to make up my mind on a LGA1366 Waterblock. The Swiftech Apogee GTZ and LGA1366 Mounting Kit looks like the only choice.

I'd say it was the water cooling. The ASUS board I would swap out for a Gigabyte (don't smite me), and I'm sure it would still hit the same clocks.

At 4.4ghz it will do lots of prime95, wprime, and other fun benchmarks but it can't go deep into the CPU stage of vantage. There's got to be a BIOS update that will fix these stability issues because there is a lot in the bios that doesn't even work.

I hope this helps... my temps were around 34C idle and max 44C under load at 4.4ghz

damn binge, you're getting close to Giorgos score dude!!!

But then Giorgos would throw in some ln2, clock to 323434343 GHz and blow you away

heres my best (as of yet, havent tweaked my ram etc yet (sorry about the large pic, just had to get the epicness of my wallpaper in lol))

I tried Binges technique using a lower multi and higher BLCK Freq and got
a little improvement. I must admit it took me forever to get this stable.
I think this is actually better as it takes less voltage which helps with temps.
Am sure i can clock higher because i still have lots of room to adjust some
settings higher but my goal is no more then 4Ghz because of temps.

That's an AMAZING OC considering I didn't do that to get 4ghz xD

Stepping was on but my multiplier is really x21. I was running at 4.4ghz.

I would LOVE to know your approach and if your system would boot multiple times!

Thanks. I got the idea from your post. Anyhow i will have to post my settings later
this evening as i am now in the middle of compiling a Gentoo stage3 tarball 'talk
about putting a load on this system'. Anyway yes it does boot just fine and i ran
prime for about 10 minutes before i had to get started on my linux compile which takes
awhile and, working with lm_sensors dev to get a W83667HG-A module built so i can
monitor temps in linux. If you think these chips haul ass in windows you should see it
FLY in linux compiling 8 process' at the same time. As an example, it used to take me
1 hour 19 minutes to compile GCC on a amd X2 @ 2.7Ghz. I can do it now in 32m.
w00t

Anyway. I will get back into windows this evening and get my bios settings before
i login and report to ya.

P.S. as you can see here i am unable to get you VALID readings from linux until we
get this module figured out.

Great runs lately, battle of the quads on this page

i need a new mobo new cpus on a 2ys old mobo

i see you modded the heck out your mobo.


vdroop mod, pencil mod, pen mod, marker mod, etc hehehehhe.

get a P5Q?

Thought i would post some eye candy pics for y'alls viewing pleasure

MY desktop is actually one of 4 viewports 'a cube like the borg ship'
that i can transform while switching from one to the other. Here is a
pic while switching viewports 'desktops' and transformed my cube into
a transparent sphere 'i usually display a fish tank inside of it. As you can
see i have not setup my AA/FSAA yet so excuse the tearing on the edges.

^^^thats awesome dude, did you read my reply about DOM's mobo

LOL, yes i did. I must say i am glad i joined this forum. You guys are a blast and
well true geeks....heh

P.S. it's been quite a few years since i had to do a pencil mod

hahaha, Thanks dude. This by far is the best forum i've ever joined dude!! And of course we are all true geeks, thats what makes these forums what they are

how is it my ram was up to 565mhz(1130)@5-5-5-15@2T and CPU was at 3.3ghz and i still got about .2s slower then my old score with ram @412(824)@4-4-4-12@2T? Shouldn't the 1130mhz give me faster then the 824mhz or is this a benchmark that likes tight timings better then speed?

how stable was it at 3.3 GHz. I notice when it is no too stable, usually crashes shortly after benchmark, that the performance is not good.

i used it to upload the SS and play music for awhile. It didn't crash in the time i was using it i just didn't like seeing the CPU temp around 50c

hmm

Somtimes when my system was unstable and about to crash it would perform bad in super pi or quick benchmarks. Then I would up the vcore on the CPU a bit lets say, and it will do a lot better.

I'm not using my patriot ram anymore till Xmas so its gonna have to wait. Also i am using my Gigabyte board that returned from the dead and my 5kBE so right now i can't test that out and see if it works i'm too lazy to switch rigs right now

yeah but didnt help much idk why but it did keep the volts stable mem would move alot think thats what killed like 2-3 sticks

get a P5Q?

yeah i was thinking on getting the P5Q Deluxe but would like the 2X16 PCI-E with a X48 but i havent seen or really look for one that OC good since mines got a 8X Mulit on the Q and dont want to spend to much but been looking at the Maximus II Formula
