X3220 SLACT Xeon Arrived!!

[Acanthus]

Packaged in Malay
Pack Date: 8/14/07

 

[PCTC2]

Let us know. I'm curious.

 

[ArchAngel777]

Dude, just set it for 450X9 and fire away! LOL.... Be sure to report back... A lot of us are waiting in suspense...

 

[Acanthus]

Just got the watercooling installed, its a bitch changing blocks

VID is 1.24v

Idle temp in bios after 20 minutes, 31C

(currently leak testing)

Max memtest 86 coming up

 

[Acanthus]

Memtesting at 400x9 3.6ghz
memory is 1:1 DDR800 5-5-5-15 with +0.5v

it will do DDR1000 6-6-6-21 with +0.1v on the GA-P35-DS3R so i would expect the P5K Premium to at least match it.

 

[Acanthus]

Restarted with memtest at 47% pass.

Voltage increased to 1.40v.

 

[Acanthus]

Update:

Passed 400x9 @ 1.40v

Failed 500x8 @ 1.50v

Testing 421x9@1.45v 3.8ghz timings 5-5-5-15-2t

Wow, impressive!

Memtest stability is usually about 150mhz higher than prime stability, so im not cheering yet my goal was 3.8ghz

Connecting HDs, setting up raid 0, installing windows.

Be back with prime results in a few hours.

 

[Acanthus]

Highest 1 hour prime stability test so far.

3.78ghz

Load temp (large ffts) 57C

Vdroop (Asus Voltage Dampener Enabled) .072v

Actual Load Voltage: 1.480v

Nice.

@acanthus - once you arrive on a nice stable o/c, why no run the x264 encoding benchmark

Will do for sure.

Passed overnight large FFT at 3.78ghz, will bump it up tonight to 3.81.

 

[Acanthus]

x264 results posted at 3.78ghz

Although i noticed the encoder is 32bit, we could likely increase scores with a 64bit version of the encoder.

 

[Acanthus]

Updated sig to reflect the final OC as long as it passes overnight prime tonight.

I cant get 433x9 stable unless i go all the way up to 1.575v which is just too much even for water.

Very nice! :thumbsup:

I guess your a G0 believer now eh...

so long 3.3 ghz B3?

That B3 sucked, it put out more heat at 3.3ghz 1.4v than this does at 3.81ghz 1.5v.

 

[VirtualLarry]

This is a quad-core G0 we are talking about?

 

[Quiksilver]

Yep.

 

[Technonut]

Sweet OC..... :thumbsup:

 

[bryanW1995]

that almost makes me want to upgrade now to a G0. I must stay disciplined...penryn is just around the corner...
