Can I just confirm, it was running prime at 45C with 1.7V running through it!? Just kinda hard to believe haha, 32nm manufacturing is definately impressive leap forward if so!
PUSHING FOR 5GHz... i5 CLARKDALE RESULTS
- Thread starter rjk
- Start date
thats right but it was wPrime not Prime 95
like i said, this was just a benching run to see what it could go for
the standard 4GHz overclock on a freezer7 Rev2 tops out at 38'c at full load using:
OCCT - Linpack - 64bit - HT enabled
which is nice
i think 4ghz on a stock cooler is doable... in fact im going to try it now

I look forward to your results!
Is the only diff between the 32nm i3 and the 32nm i5 is that the turboboost is only available on the i5?
What sort of voltage do you deem the safe max on these chips?
4ghz
Stock Cooler
70'c
Done
so far max volts i have used for a stability run is 1.325v
but i am not pushing them too far, at least until i have messed around with enough of a variety of them to make a real judgement
i have tomorrow off for my birthday but will post up the screenies when i get back into work

They have let you out the lab for your birthday...that's nice of them.
Fresh air is a nice treat.

I have to admit rjkoneill, those are pretty tasty speeds =)
One question, on some of the OCs you have the CPU voltage up at 1.6-1.7v, which would be considered a suicide voltage, and would (eventually) kill the CPU . My cpu (sig) is only running 1.45v. What sort of voltages can you put through those things without killing em?

I'd also be interested in what is the max temp and O/C using a Freezer 7 @ 1.45v. Looking to build a gaming rig and that would be ideal.
i have never killed a cpu with voltage
you can go up to 1.8 comfortably just dont put it under load,
these results were suicide shots, basically just seeing how far the chips clock
to be honest
i3 and i5 clarkdales work best on the h55 boards
the p55 boards are great for pushing the chips
but you may as well get the i5 750 if you are going p55
unless the pc is just for gaming in which case the i3 530 would be ok
h55 and p55 use dual channel ddr3 as well so you need to be looking at the dual channel kits
the 6gb triple channel kits are for the x58 boards

are the features on the asus formula 3 worth it over the other asus boards in that range ? the gene is a bit cheaper and its only lacking a couple of things as far as i can see, and looking further down the list there is the Asus P7P55D? £50 cheaper than the formula 3 ?
What features are important to you specifically?
having at least 1 esata, been a decent overclocking board, having good raid functionality (after the terrible raid on the p5k), gigabit networking, and at least 6 sata connections.
Dont need wireless, millions of usb ports or anything to do with watercooling and i cant see me justifying more than one graphics card anytime soon, dont need onboard sound as i have a auzentech.
hmm hope that helps

You got an email rjkoneill.

Think he is out tonight so he will probs pick it up sometime tommorrow.
Getting proper excited about the Gulftown launch now, can't wait.

Yeah that's fine.
Calm Yewen. haha

Haha, Windows Experience Index will never know what's hit it.
