1.380v min and 1.410 seems to keep stability better. Temps are in the mid to late 60s core #1 likes to spike the hardest to 72c - settle in temps are in the 60s mid to high short tested 2 hours OCCT and Prime95.
Anything more to the above I can run the chiller up to 1.5v for stability at 5.1ghz. haven't seen 5.2ghz without a blue screen. Most settings you gave me for the Gene applied and work pretty good for the 5ghz. I did benchamrk Pimod, nothing much more than that. With HT shut off, 5ghz is in the 60's and with only 2 cores I can get it in the 50's Spikes in the late 60s. But 5ghz daily stable won't happen with this one unfortunately. BLCK clock made a max of 107 postable 106 in windows on 35x multi. additional commentary: The GTX-480 on the same loop, it clocks 940/2050 pretty much max on the first PCB for the card. It humps along pretty good. If I removed this from the loop, the Cpu temps "should" drop dramatically. I just don't have enough stuff to make 2 loops. Space really isn't a problem.... |
Nice results ..... :thumbsup:
whats your ambient ......... ? Temps seem very low :) |
Ambient is 19c - 22c - Dual 120.2 rads - modded ThermalTake waterblock from BigWater series - Using s775 mounting plates (the board had holes for it! Tubes are 1/2" OD 3/8" ID Nylon clear liquid is a mix of ammonia and alcohol and Thermal take green and CoolerMaster neon reactive Blue and some windshield washer fluid.
So at stock keeping the i7 at around 45c (loaded) give or take unchilled is no problem. I still got to get F@H going for some long hauling. I did let it cruise at 4.2ghz on 1.288v over night. I didn't complete any packets, but it seems to fold the same as my AMD just has more threads to do it with. Surely no doubt it's faster, but the work units are different so I won't know any numbers until I get that itch again. Quote:

Mmonia and alcohole, I have read about but never seen anyone do it, better than distiilled and nuke ?
I think you will like the Intel's , there defenatly the big blocks of the CPU world. Being I don't know what platform I will be building on it is hard to say what clocks I will end up at. But 5GHz 24/7 would be cool, but definatly overkill for most tasks. Who knows if work does not pick up soon I may just be putting my current SB-E platform in it with some new GPU's and possibly a better board. I would like to see what Haswell brings to the table and if Intel goes the way of TIM or soldering the IHS. hopefully the latter |
I'd hope for solder myself... better heat transfer.
Told ya I like my diamond paste. Just takes a little bit to settle in ;) |
from my testing TX2 seems to work best for ambient ...... :thumbsup:
But did not test the stuff you are talking about |
Antec Formula 6 and they did make a formula 7. I found the 6 to be almost as good as the 7 at a cheaper price.
Most Thermal pastes work well if just the right amount is used. But I'm sure you know the ropes plenty well. TX2 is great stuff. Probably works better than what I'm using by a deg or so. I'm not that picky. I'll just go adjust my thermostat on the wall :D |
Well it is back to the drwing board, the unit did not fit in the case, Bone head move on my part. need a few weeks and will be working on water to water..........
Thanks for the idea Shrimp, we will see if half the capacity with better disapation can have a positive result. Just have to figure out how they are staged |

Not to mention that two applications and you can no longer read the IHS |

Well AS5 also needs a burn in too. Was a very popular thermal paste. The Diamond paste needs to be used in the proper amount. Not too much not too little type of thing. To each his own - I've had good luck with house hold items too! |
