lol how high are you willing to go with that stock heatsink? :p

Haha, the heatsink is fine. Its still only about 55c, even at 4.1Ghz. Temps are not whats holding me back - the system bclk I can't get higher than 198, even with increased voltages. Apparently Gigabytes new beta bios fixes this so I might give it a go if Lyric manages a better score :p

oh guys , grrrr i wanna my 3rd place :p

what s' up with crazy OC's :D

edit :

and why there is no AMD users ? are they afraid from Ci7 :rofl:

/jking

oh comn , we need there appearance seriously :D

I neglected my RAM and I can still push her further. I'm going to tighten up my RAM and try for 4GHz and do a repost.

Wow though i7 is really mopping up the competition, good job boys :woot:

There should be a laptop subset.

I got 17.375 on mine. I'll post up the screenshot later.

I concur. I wouldn't mind running it through my Macbook.

Also i am going to try and push 4GHz out of my old Q6600 and see what she can pull off :p

What do you guys think max safe voltage is for 65nm? 1.5?

LoL i was on a short amount of time tonight to overclock my cpu, and I pretty much managed to waste an hour of time, it was posting but then I realized it would bsod when I booted it into windows. :/

If it BSOD's and your FSB:RAM ratio is 1:1, then its some type of voltage that needs to be increased most of the time. Just have to experiment, takes awhile to find stable settings.

CPU Vcore

NB

SB

or CPU VTT

apparently i've hit close to the max OC of my chip

won't go past 475x9 or 500x8

not gonna try to push more volts

here's my score!

if i can free up some more time this weekend i'll go steal my fiancee's E8400 lol (that's allowed right? :p )

her batch is supposed to OC better than mine

Seems a bit slow really but it's at stock and it's a 920 not a 940. Compared to the i7 it's terrible, but still pretty respectable considering it's running at just 29c, max I can get it to is 31c and thats with Overdrive stress tests. Too bad I didn't get the black edition :p I'll make sure I do next time.

    • It is silly there is no simple way to check whether this profile has been activated. CFRs are normal, but trying to even hide the fact if it's on / off seems silly, especially for something so user-facing. Surely Microsoft is "proud" of their engineering efforts on this one and ought to display it somwhere in the GUI.
    • Many Linux distros are not known for excellent battery life, so I'm not sure that is the best example. A more apt example may be Apple, but Apple's CPUs are simply far more efficient than Intel & AMD at single-threaded tasks like these, so "boosting" is not as power-hungry and less heat-inducing. Not to mention Apple will hardly engage P-cores for basic UI tasks; they use a pretty complicated QoS scheme to only activate P-cores for more serious workloads like HTML / JS execution or decompression or application launch. Microsoft is (smartly) doing it for launch, but also for UI tasks, which is the more nonsensical part: why ... do Windows 11's UIs need modern CPUs to boost? It should load so quickly that there's not even time for the CPU to boost.
    • I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.
    • It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
    • Can LibreOffice just shut up and worry about themselves and stop comparing themselves? Do we see Microsoft complaining about euro office?
