8 Packs 4ghz 32m Challenge win full Haswell 4770K Bundle.

[dlknight]

Keen to have a go at this will post my result later hopefully - if not later in the week

i5-2500k + some Samsung Green @ 2133MHz on a Z77A-GD65 so hoping for a good result (fingers crossed)

Right 1st attempt with no tweaking! 8m 42.239s

CPU speed controlled by Turbo Ratio (for now - will change to static ratio for next attempt). 2nd and 3rd timings on Auto but will tweak.

Not sure what the point of the competition is though if someone with a good haswell rig enters as they will win as others have said.... but fun to have a go anyway!

That's actually much better than I expected from the Q6600, not bad

Thanks, not sure I make up the 5 mins to the leaders though.

 

[Kaapstad]

Here's a slightly quicker one

Spoiler

The memory and CPU IMC will go a bit higher, unfortunately I have run out of BCLK without going over the limit.

 

[setter]

My first attempt.

Spoiler

Hopefully be able to get it a bit lower.

 

[LtMatt]

Go on Setter!

 

[Kaktus69]

My first attempt.

Hopefully be able to get it a bit lower.

Will your RAM not do 9-10-10-21 Setter?

I'll hopefully have a go tomorrow when replacement chip arrives.

I got a bit bored and thought i would give this a try.

Please note its not me submitting anything thus the lack of the proper background. I do not even know if Sandys are allowed lol

Did i do everything right?

 

[setter]

Iirc, i had it at 9-10-10-22 once, scored 7m 24s ono, with 9-10-10-21 i managed 7m 27s. Albeit those were runs in the 32m thread with the cpu @4.5ghz.

 

[NightSt@lk3r]

Okay here is my first try on Socket 1156 and a very respectable time of 9m 35.990s

Spoiler

Sorry NightSt@lk3r I beat you by 1 second

Round 2

 

[setter]

Set ram timings to 9-10-10-22, only a very tiny improvement.

[setter]

Havent got a clue where im currently placed tbh, too many posts to read through.

An improvement is an improvement!

I've never tested at 4ghz but with Samsung Green I was running 9-10-10-21 up to about 4.8ghz on 3770K, only had to change the timings when going faster.

At 4ghz you should be able to match that at least and I would think better it.

That can't be right wazza, pull your finger out mate!

At least your equipment is working. My chip died about 2 weeks ago, the lazy so-and-so. Replacement tomorrow hopefully.

 

[wazza300]

What did you do to it? Chips don't usually die
