Currently single here, work night and day at the mo as the winter will be quiet work wise. Love to just get even the cpu under water cooling, but that alone would be pretty expensive. Nevermind the cards. That and my current case is a disaster for watercooling.
 
Hi all,

Just setup my brother in laws system, can someone tell me if this score seems ok?

Specs:

Haswell 4670i CPU
8GB RAM
HIS 7950 IceQ BOOST

I will mate, getting the time is the problem. My old 3570k wasnt too bad to oc. But it was a volt hungry chip, yet ran cool enough, (75c max in ibt). Bought the 3770k on members market, the previous owner said it does 4.5ghz under 1.300 vcore. Hope this is the case, as the ib chips are hard to cool. Using a big dual tower alpenfohn k2 cooler here. If it isnt upto the job i may just delid the cpu and go with liquid metal paste on the die. It's awesome stuff even on just the ihs.
 
The voltage jumps above 4.2ghz i found on the 3570k to climb pretty high, then temps rise. Iirc, mine done 4.2ghz on 1.25v. Needed 1.31 to be prime/ibt stable. But then, it would still crash/freeze in games with whea event 19 cpu parity id errors in event viewer. Which means increase vcore, and sure enough upping vcore to 1.3200 sorted that. Delidding them can give temp drops of upto 20c with liquid metal paste, but im a bit wary in case id mess it up.

Yer same here. I have seen them do it and I would probably have a try but I don't have the steadiest hands at the best of times and more like a bull in a china shop :D

No need for it on your chip mate, the sbe cpu's use solder between the die and the ihs. Both ivy and haswell use cheap paste. Haswell can run a bit hotter due to the addition of more bits n bobs on the cpu compared to ivy. Only good thing is, an ib at 4.5ghz is about equivalent to a standard sandybridge at 4.8ghz ono.
 
Two more cards i've just finished benching.

Nearly 17k Physics :D I managed 52k on Vantage earlier, was quite happy with that. Shame i beat my score with a lower Physics though :(
 
Air, that 470 has a TF2 cooler, could do with editing the bios on that card for more volts tbh (pretty sure you can flash the 4** cards with more voltage?)

Shame the memory is terrible, couldn't get near 1000mhz memory without it just spazzing out.
 
Ahh, tf2, great coolers on those. Mine were reference gigabyte oc versions. Max i got them to was 820mhz core on the max voltage afterburner would allow.
 

Excellent stuff Tonester. Using a 3820 atm and my score went up 500 points after using this thread. Was able to change my dram timings without the mbd going into "I'm not starting again" mode.......... might go and try my 3960X again.

As for delidding 3770s.........I've used the hammer method on one and single edged razor on two others. That vice in the video is far too wobbly. I used my workshop vice (bolted to the bench) with the cpu lid suitably protected, and then I employed the "Cillit Bang" method .................... "Bang and the chip is gone!" ;).......... Errr....... I did find it and it still worked:)
