Sandy Bridge-E - overclocks, results, discussion....

This thread is for discussion of all matters relating to Sandy Bridge-E cpu's.

 

Just throwing my name in to keep up with what's going on

 

+1
also throwing in my name

 

throwing my name in

prolly post some results tomorrow

 

soon to be a 3930K owner.. subbed

 

Where are the X79 bundles? Sign me up

 

I refuse to be a part of yet another aussie-revhead thread!

Oh!

DOH!

 

Yep it's replacement time.

Unlike some of you, I might have to wait until tomorrow to get out the CC.

It's a shame nobody wants to take my money today and deliver tomorrow as I'll be working from home then ...

raised Vcore slightly.... everything else stock

Sitting on a H100

 

Nice, keep going .....

Any 3D11 by any chance?

 

Subbing myself here.

 

Anyone know what safe Vcore for these are for daily use?

Just going through Prime test @ 4.5 first then pushing it higher...... want to establish a safe 24/7 operating floor first.

 

I dont know about safe voltages but since its the same architecture as SB do we assume that its around 1.35v? Some say 1.4, some say max for benching is 1.55v, so at this point its up to you. The lower volts you use the safer it is, the longer it will last, the less chance of it degrading, simple as that.

 

w00t, let's see what you guys can do with the ASUS motherboards

 

Rampage IV Extreme - 1.607v lah on H100!

 

I have added some categories, Im not sure if its what you guys want to see, just get into it and we will see where it leads. Im only going to show top 5 in each category for now.

 

Had a feeling these were going to be volt hungry monsters.

Seems a bit strange. 4.5 is easily achievable but pushing beyond, these early CPUs needs lots of volts.

 

MSI X79A-GD65 - http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=2097188
Gigabyte G1.Assassin2 - http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=2094194
ASUS Rampage IV Extreme - http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=2087649

Dino just told me new BIOS for the G1.Assassin2 is due out today, though.

I'd be inclined to think it will boost overclock as well because he said it well, and second 24 Hours ago the MSI was only doing 4.625GHz

 

id be keen to see 24/7 everyday o/c rather then what the max you can reach, take a CPUZ validation and reboot.


I'd like to see Prime95 blend 4+hours and Coretemp max temps.
but then again its early days for that.

 

Me too, thats why I have different sections for each.
