[jemz]

Hello, I just got the FX60 and woud like to share my scores:

Mobo : DFI LanParty NF4 SLI-DR EXPERT
Gfx : PowerColor ATI Radeon X1800 XT 512MB
Memory : G.Skill 1GB DDR FF PC4800
Cooling : Vapochill LS
HDD : 4xRaid 0 WD Raptor 37gb

I tried to set CPU volts to 1.8 but it seems it has a protection shutting PC down.

Well yes - I pasted 2 screen shots in my post - If you can't see them i can post direct links to the pics - just let me know.

hello
well seems strange cpu....on air only clocks to 2.8ghz then needed little volts
but 3.5-3.6 on vapo seems like its gonna work.....temps on idle -26c....under load -8c
but this weekend i wanna try get more volts 1.8-1.9v...even if CPU dies its not a problem its just fun testing
btw my main pc i use 24/7 is AMD X2-4400@3200with 1.75v

i already have RMA for it for tue 6th.......so have few days to kill it
ill only keep it if it does 3.6ghz else i dont want it

lol nar my FX55@3360 ran for last 12 months with 1.92v.....looks fine

 

[jemz]

after few tests i think FX60 is a poor OC chip..its gonna take 1.9v for stable use at 3.5ghz
but i removed cpu for some server use atm till friday
trying it in my 2nd vapo and DFI LanParty UT NF4 SLI-D mobo......hopefully it can do better there
130nm i think i bought it first week it was out

This is my setup atm till FX60 proves better:
