dave beast, can you download this software and run the benchmark @ 4.8ghz for me please ? Here is it: http://nuc-rus.narod.ru/eng.htm

Mine score here for 4.0Ghz:

dave_beast · 11 Jan 2011 at 21:26

Done, who's the daddy?

Included CPUZ clock speed as Nuclearus was reporting it wrong

bulldog147 · 11 Jan 2011 at 21:42

You only just beat i7 4.0Ghz by 1954!

dave_beast · 11 Jan 2011 at 21:45

4.8ghz

God damn you dave beast.

I am this -><- close to putting an order similar to your spec but using a 2500K and a MSI P67A-GD65.

How is that CoolerMaster Hyper 212 plus cooler?

Takes me up to 4.8ghz with no drama, running on a 4.5ghz 24/7 with idle temps in the low to mid 20's

Don't think I posted this in here yet. A look at the cooler and mobo

What paste did you use on that cooler ?

dave_beast · 12 Jan 2011 at 12:08

The Cooler Master stuff that came with it in a small tube.

Just over 1 week on, a few bios's later, now running 1.8b5 bios, i've finally managed to hit 5ghz at quite a low vcore, and temps were 38c at ghz idle

Only ran just long enough to obliterate my previous SuperPi 1m time, now returned back to a happy 4.5ghz at 1.27vcore

The new bios adds quite a few extra settings for extreme overclocking, not on MSI's main site, you have to search for it

Just an update to my previous SuperPi 1m

Ran the ram a little slower, and the chip a little higher for the test - Note, the actual vcore on the voltage point on the board was 1.595v, so CPU-Z is wrong

lee20010 · 12 Oct 2011 at 20:27

what temps/cooling are you using for 1.6vcore?

dave_beast · 12 Oct 2011 at 20:30

For the above overlock which was for running SuperPi only, was running a CM Hyper 212+ with push/pull Coolermaster fans at full throttle, temps didn't get over 50c as the cpu wasn't getting stressed.
