This is my x3 435 oc+undervolt@1.2625V. Passed OCCT linpack for 7 hours. Idle@35c, load@50c. Is that consider stable enough?

Refering to above user,yes..actually it can still be lowered..Even Phenom II X4 950 can be undervolted up to 1.15V still stable..why not on you?

I still wonder how AMD make Phenom II X4 from 125W>95W TDP..Both same revision,same clock,same everything..i wonder what tweaks was applied..

Thanks for the input but I am still wondering whether it is stable enough for 24/7 day-to-day usage? Trying to get lower and see.

undervolting maybe.

my B55 be is stable at it stock speed with just 1.2v and that make a lot of difference in power usage.

and amd is catching up on Intel power usage now.

once i think "Alah..ini marketing stratefy ni" cuz we all know that that 125w not really 125w..
my 80w 550 at stock also around 70+-..iinm.. sempron unlocked around 35+- eventho it stated 45w before unlock..
i get those reading from giga energy saver utility..and read when load..

amd tdp refer to max..
no wonder during idle it's lesser..

n it's by average.. so it's different among chips..

my x4 load use less than 70w

waffak

coz less voltage..

u ni pun satu... u undervolt like hell..mmg la sikit.
btw..nice volt there since its unlock.. great..

i know that

just playing witcha.

btw i already got the ramsink to cover the vrm area of the mobo but its not gonna fit perfectly la since its the wide type instead of the straight type.



see the wide fin.thats the problem rite there.now gonna look for another type and this one gonna go into the 5770.

Yup it's true, AMD listed their cpu's TDP using Maximum while Intel listed their cpu's TDP using Average only

got what other software can see the cpu power usage?

Iianm, only gigabyte have that software. I also looking for it

that means only gigabyte motherboard user can use?
or other brand of motherboard also can use?

Gigabyte mobo only

then i don't have the luck to use this software..

i think it's depends on mobo if got the sensor..
my asus also can monitor through everest.. now just 10W..

10W for idle or in gaming bro?

of course typing, browsing, downloading which ever in the desktop mode..
gaming just <30w
prime <50w



shows that the reading i gathered..
just ignore the core temp.. coz this is the earlier chip with defect dts..
but the cpu temp is ok..

Hehehe, now that said a lot, cpu nowadays doesn't eat too much watt compared to GPU..
It relatively sips watt when compared to GPU especially to the fermi GTX480 & GTX470
