Holly crap! My CPU is on steroids

[mythy]

Well I got a new mobo today and it booted right at my preferd 3.4GHz OC with 1.34 Vcore and after some tweaking I got this!

Does any one else have a 3.4GHz quad that can get me some comparison results?

wow... thats really high...

Something is either not right with their scores or something is very very right with you computer. :lol:

[CaptNKILL]

Strange.

I just ran the test on my system and the results look almost exactly the same, except the numbers are roughly halved (dual cores vs quads).

My CPU hits 33k on the Dhrystone while the 2.93Ghz dual supposedly gets 23k. Thats an increase of about 33% for only about 20% increase in clock speed (from 2.93 to 3.6).

Very strange results. :confused:

Try running your CPU as close to 2.93 as you can. If it still scores much higher than theirs then its most likely just an inconsistency with their scoring. Or you could have an uber system. :lol:

Maybe it's about right, this is what I get in XP with Sandra Lite (2008.1.12.34):

The test does stop for a short while at 50% before going on.

my q6600 does 3.2GHz on stock v-core 31 C load 19 C idle must try higher
the cpu is clocking down its self how to disable it

[mythy]

unless your running a chiller my guess is those temps arnt from coretemp ;)



Go into bios and disable C1E and speedstep

[qube]

watercooled
coretemp wont run in vista 64
howe to run all 4 cores in orthos

[qube]

3.42GHz 1,32 v-core 33C load

[qube]

3.6 GHz 1.36 v-core 34C load 22C idle

[mythy]

core temp runs on 64 you just have to use a loader, and those so arnt your real temps @3.5 on high end water you can maintain a 50Ccore but were talking dual triple rads...

[911medic]

howe to run all 4 cores in orthosD/L this version (http://www.softpedia.com/get/Others/Home-Education/Prime95.shtml) of Prime95; it automagically will detect and run threads on as many cores as you have.

Dont bother with orthoes this is much better for loading the cores :p

What kind of temps are getting mythy? I got the same board but I think its temp readout is all messed up. Mine idles at 60c and loads at 70c no matter what the cooling, weather, in case or out. I'm running the latest beta bios 0603 tho it was the same with the older ones too.
Great OC btw, I have to feed my B3 1.4v for a little over 3.2GHz:(

Disable Intel Speedstep Techonology (C1E) in bios

That sounds like more reasonable temps. You have a G0 right? My B3 loads at ~50ish so your temps look pretty good.

EDIT: oh and I see we have the same waterblock :thumbsup: You happy with yours?

The temp readout works on mine it just displays the the IHS temps. (27-40ish) If you want your real CPU temps you have to use coretemp. My load is 54-58C depending on room temp.:p

It was either that or a wolf.

Thanks, I was hoping it was the bios but I guess its either really running that hot or something is up with the sensor. I use Everest Ultimate for the temps and while it shows the cpu at 60c the individual core readings are about 10c lower. It passes overnight Prime no problem so if anything I'll just run it until it dies out:)
Thanks

[mythy]

what bios are you using I'm using the one from June not the latest...:)

[Dr.Nick]

I'm a brave soul that runs the beta releases; currently on 0603

[mythy]

theres a new one out there but it adds cpu support.. then another again cpu support... If thats all there doing I'll stay safe :p

[mythy]

you spent $700 more for a 2% increase over my $270 dollar quad :D wow man you better get that thing to 4.2 or some thing...

oh and nice score :)
