Well, sorry to be a pedant, but an [email protected] is probably equivalent to a P4@9GHz... :p

ok point taken.

The laymen has always taken it to be that the higher the clock speeds equlas the faster CPU. Over the last few years that has somewhat changed, and now with the introduction of cores, its introduced more confusion.

I'm now starting to think that the AMD XP numerical system wasn't as bad as I thought.

sorry for going off topic!!!

Idle temps mean nothing....

what are your load temps dual prime and what cooling are you using?

ok ok spoil sport :p running superpi (1.5 mod) 32M @ 3.8 - temps are tops 39. I'm running water

LOL

What water kit just out of interest? just got mine up and running.

How much vcore?

Didnt realise super pi used both cores?

Run two instances of prime instead :)
 
:eek: Seen this?

E6300 @ 3.5ghz(500x7) on water, Gigabyte DQ6

Not bad for a £125 chip.

Well I did 3.8 on mine using Air, ofcourse, one instance of SuperPI doesn't put it on full load, and temps are acceptable (Mid 40s idle, low-mid 60's load) tbh i'd have to go home and check on that but all I know is when I ran two, or prime95, ooh ...yeah, air isn't good enough to keep it cool at full load.
You could make instant breakfast on that thing.

Vapochill Micro (HSF), got it to 3.8 but, nay likes stress tests on full load.
So, not stable, but I can get into windows, run super pi, run bf2 for at least 10mins ;P

Getting a Tuniq Tower 120, hoping to get it stable around there, but it's pretty much doubtful on air really?

Run 2 instances of SuperPi in parallel.
like SuperPi1.exe and SuperPi2.exe or create two folders and place the benchmark files there
Set affinity at one instance per core.

Windows Task Manager allows you to set affinity of each running process to both or any single core you`d like.

Agreed at these clocks you need water for it to be stable dual priming.

And without an overclock being dual primestable for at least 8 hrs its not a stable clock in my book.

At 3.6ghz on air mine would reach 70 c

Now under water its 47c :D

It was tongue in cheek lol.....I know ;)


Just run dual instances of prime.

Super PI doesnt run long enough to test for complete stability
