your Broadwell-E average clock

The thing is the J batch CPUs havent really increased the max headroom for overcocking on Haswell-E they still all seem to have the same hard wall of 4.5-4.6

J batches only do it at much lower voltage compared to the initial early batches

well getting the voltage lower is essentially increase overclocking headroom in this case. Early units can barely stable at 4.4-4.5Ghz and now 4.6Ghz-4.7Ghz is pretty much the goal. I remember reading reviews of Haswell-E SKUs, they benched them at 4.4Ghz with over 1.3v now they are benchable at 4.7Ghz with 1.25-1.35v pretty easily :)

Any links for these BE 4.7 chips using less than 1.35v please?

1. this 5960x isn't mine (yet) but it is pretty solid at 4.8Ghz 1.282v core, 4.6Ghz cache and 3200 ram.

2. This 5960x I binned 2 months ago. 4.5Ghz 1.201v, Cinebench R15 at 4.7Ghz 1.25v but it don't have a screenshot.

3. This is my current chip rocking stable for my need at 4.5Ghz 1.195v. I will try 4.7Ghz and let you know later on.

Ive got an older L batch chip, only clocking ive done so far was a quick mess about with auto volts. 1.312@ load under XTU. But experienced memory issues, dont think my board or possibly the imc on the cpu doesnt get on well with ram at 3000mhz.

is this even a thing??

I mean i know there are chips around which will do 4.5GHz at 1.4v, but 4.7, ive not even seen a single consumer chip which has seen over 4.6 regardless of the voltage

yep mines a l batch does 4.6 pretty easy i think with more tinkering 4.7-4.8 would be achievable but why push it that hard for extra 100mhz :p

happy with 4.6 :cool:

Im happy enough now with stock speed. Barely game despite still owning a 980ti. Dont encode as much as i used to either. But if i ever do get back into both my system is still powerful enough. In recent years i went through too many cpu's to chase benchmark numbers. Q6600.Q9550, i7 3570k, i7 3770k, i7 4770k and i7 4790k x2. Now on a 5820k but comes a time you have to wise up and stop spending silly money that nets little gasins in real life usage.
 
yes i can remember the process of gear you brought :D its nice you at a place where you can just enjoy your system.;)
 
Is there a batch number checker for Broadwell-E somewhere? I'm sure I recall one for Haswell where you could check your serial number to see if it was a good one or not?
