for example 10yrs to 8years...u still want to use same proc for 8years? i 8months wanna change already (if only i have money la)
3.8 is OK for deneb even in C2..C3 apatah lg

I agree with u bro. but, 10 years is too long for an example. 3 years is sufficient to use the same proc. i sokong 100% for the "red text".

thanks bro, usefull info for me...b4 this i scared to increase my voltage more than 1.42v coz i see at amd webpage it state 1.42v is the max volatge for my processor..

that are not max voltage, that was the max voltage for that processor to run at rated speed out of the box.

Trust me when I say, AMD or any silicon manufacturer have no idea regarding the exact timeframe of when or how long can the proc can live...they usually estimates (using data from the proc working voltage, temperature and architecture) and provides a time frame that suits the probability or failure and product lifespan...if they (CPU manufacturer) thinks an architecture can last them 6 years of production, then its no stranger when it comes to a 3 years warranty for the proc that is being sold for the end-user...I've witness many new boxed proc (be it from intel and AMD) fail to work after just installed but unlike memory or hard drives, the number isn't as many as the production of the CPU has a higher and tighter tolerance for error in the factory as compared to other PC components...

Voltage alone isn't what kills the processor...a bad chapalang PSU for instance is a big NO NO if you want to ensure your proc or even other components to last....To date i've seen 486 PC still running strong and so does Pentium and Pentium 2 PCs...but most of them are from highly respected vendors such as Siemens Nixdorf or NEC....those clones or Datamini like brands usually dies quick, due to the use of cheap PSU or low quality mobo...Even the early Dells are high in quality in terms of the hardware...

So whether upping 0.1 or 0.2 volts will shorten the lifespan of the proc or not, is not really a question...it depends largely on where you put your proc on...

Cheap stuff = cheap reliability...

Do you dare put i7 9xx on X58 made by Biostar

Or would you spend >1k on mobo and put you precious Extreme Editions proc

Thats why server mobos are no strangers to high price tags because it is designed to work long hours with minimal downtime...but they are not high in performance....

Stuff that usually kills proc (apart from excessive overvoltage or high temp) would be:

-A bad PSU
-A bad Mobo
-Lightning/Power Surge (from mains)

i got a question, what does the % per core did on ACC function after enable it?
like:
Core 0:-2%
Core 1:-6%
Core 2:+8%
Core 3:+4%

Its like viag-ara for ur proc,with perfect dose or combo, it will help you to gain more ghz with it.

How are you verdict?

-pWs-

erk.. edi post here.. seem like verdict running pretty well

Yup. Good to see bro verdict back

-pWs-

nobody miss me???

is gigabyte 870a/biostar 890fxe available in lyp ledi guys? these boards still yet to be seen in sls...

@ah_khoo
Bro verdict involved in accident that day.

-pWs-

hala... sheeessh... my apologize to all...

@ sis verdict: rest well & get well soon...

Many Thanks BUDDY!

awek help to oc your body .. it's near impossible if not speedy recovery

Eksiden meh? What happen? Accident while driving? Riding bike? Or simply walking?
Pray for a speedy recovery for u bro

Hahahaha, like that everday got extra doctor helping to tune.. Suddenly imagining awek verdict in a nurse's costume

Later when im ready, i'll story to ur guys.

My love do come visit me for 2 days oni,due to she studying at umk kelantan and now on final exam.

Anyone in lyn bought x6?

Yea..one of our user bought it..
I was waiting antonio though

So do i,ekekekekeke! wait for him to do a review for us!

Hey guys,I heard that if more cores,the core speed will be divided instead of stacking up.
Like,if at 4GHz,then at 2 cores each of them will be running at 2GHz,when at 4 cores will be 1GHz.
