Really? But I've notice overclockers usually dropping their CPU multiplier for higher FSB. I couldn't find the reason for this. Can you explain?

if ram allow,i would suggest higher fsb with lower multiplier,meanwhile,make ram divider 1:1 with tighter timing possible

other criteria like fsb wall on cpu/nb,sucky ram,then higher multiplier will be preferable

Super PI 1m: 16.906 sec
CPU: E2160@3.66ghz (407x9)
batch#:Q714A156
VCore set in bios: 1.6v
Cooling: Thermaltake Big Typhoon VX
RAM: 2GB Mushkin Value ddr 800 (chipset not sure )
Timing: 4-4-4-12
VDimm: 2.32v
Mobo: xbx2

@arj
with that setup, no problem i guess for 3Ghz. but cooling is utmost important for quadcore setup

@arj being a noob...that's kinda funny ...but since he confessed, prolly so, but just till he got his hand on those setup

damn... my E6300 did 21 sec on 2.8GHz... must reach 3.XXGHz ASAP...

what la bro,ppl E21 already go 16 seconds,ur allendale must go higher la,

2.8GHz mana enough for the guy like guy?

Added on July 17, 2007, 7:34 pmbro,i think u enabled ur C1E and EIST?

disable it to let ur pc runs at full speed.

anyway,that's ur temp for idle and load?

i ald off the c1e, eist and other things, but cpu-z version 1.40.5 cannot read my clock properly, but cpu-z 1.38 can read correctly. Btw that one is idle temp. Load is around 64c(when doing super pi).

wah....then the temp is bit high,anyway,ur result is good,not bad!

Look at the temp!

good temp, i think G0 stepping really cool based on irenic's 6850 and yours tone. lol

yup,new generation proc (1333) really cool and good performance,getting one soon,

Nice proc! Are you in air-con room? Even if water-cooling, I don't think the CPU can go below ambient temperature....

yeah it's not logic for sthing to be colder than ambient temperature, but with this GO, few people has prove otherwise

tonyocz has confirmed the go temperature is very cold..

and there's someone who use gun temperature sensor and it shows the heatsink is colder than his ambient temp..

just imagine, let say u blow a fan to an iron or metal, and then u touch the metal, it should be a little cooler than ur ambient temp.. if u're in ur aircond room, then it will be lot cooler than ur ambient temp.. coz it's metal not plastic or wood..
so imho it's quite logic

I wanna see screenies after 6-12 hours of stress test

something weird with my setup. running 3.4Ghz with 1.6vcore but orthos failed within 5sec. but running supcom for hours without issue. coretemp show 85C idle.... didn't bother checking load temp though. is't due to the ES proc?

currently running 3.2G at 1.35v, not orthos stable but running supcom for hours without problem too. really weird.

True, but not when that metal have electric current running through it!!!

I just hope the temperature sensor is accurate. Let's see what other owners CPU shows.....

i dont play supcom but does running supcom stress ur proc to 100% for that long hours...
but sometime this kind of scenario does happen...fail in orthos, games and other benchmarking ok...

Doesn't that mean your rig is not 100% stable? Especially when it fails within 5 sec!

AFAIK, orthos stresses the CPU by doing calculations and checking on the results. If it fails, it means that the CPU calculated wrongly and thus is not stable....

yup,playing game never stress ur proc to the limit,maybe it's just 20% of ur proceses of ur proc,but orthos 100% stress,bro,ur temp is terrible....stock cooler?
