Overdue an upgrade...


Would really like to see some results from Athlon X3 or X4 (possible next upgrade).

I can do an X2 240 @ 3.6 in about 2 hours once I been back to work and spent some time with the missus, should be about 30% quicker for X3 and 50% than X4. It does somewhere around 21secs iirc

My WPi result's at 4.2GHz - NOTE my Vcore is at 1.024v due to using Dynamic Vcore(DVID) in the BIOS, my Vcore at 100%Load is 1.312v

965BE all at stock took 11.623 secs.

I would post a screenshot, but I can't be bothered. I might well do if I ever get round to overclocking again. :P
 
Here is mine, wish I had an i7 :p

Also can't find out anything about ocuk hwbot team, would my result be of any use ?

Hmm interesting, everyone I've spoken to have said that the Q9550 is faster than a 965BE but I never believed it. I reckon If I was running at 3.8ghz I might just beat that. :P

I'm gonna favourite this thread to remind to get stuck in again when I have time.

Bring it on :p

Seriously though wouldn't compare again my overclocking skills though, also you have better ram, not sure how that affects the results :confused:

Check out:
http://hwbot.org/hardware.compare.do?type=cpu&id=1508_1&id=1926_1

965BE comes out on top quite a few times.
 
My overclocking skills aren't all that either, I only ever managed to get 3.8ghz stable and I've no idea what memory timings mean or when people talk about latencys and stuff...

Looks like they're pretty evenly matched. I doubt I'll bother overclocking it again really. I worked out last time I saw an increase in speed of 12%. Not really worth going from stock settings to the limit then. :P
 
My Phenom II @ 3.8 score:

OC is still a WIP so might be able to get more out of it.

Seems Q9550 and 965 are almost clock for clock.

At this benchmark yes. The bad thing is that it took \amd t get competitve with Core 2. Had Phenom never existed and replaced by Phenom II AMD would have been in a much better position.
 
That's actually impressive considering the price of that processor :eek: But I guess the DDR3 helps performance wise? See, I plan to just upgrade motherboard & CPU keeping my current DDR2 RAM sticks.

I'm sure I could get more out of it with a better board this one doesnt like anything above 270FSB, I'm gunna have a bash at 3.7 stable today.
