this is a quite interesting information - thanks for sharing edit: so finding the maximum multiplier seems to be more easy on gigabyte boards?

nice chip you got there thumbs up!

would also like to know, where to get the rog expander thanks man!

awesome cpu! nice run push the card and the 03 score will fly

thanks for this hint. im sure many people try to boot the chip, which is difficult due to bad heatspreader and the so caused high temperature raise during boot. 2600K - L051A863 #0108 max multiplier: 55x just possible under cold due to massive heat under load: 51x100 @1,50v - air - boot ok - win 7 - ssd (60 degree celsius boot temp) 51x100 @1,50v - air - no boot - win xp -hdd (70 degree celsius boot temp) 51x100 @1,51v - air - boot ok - win xp -hdd (75 degree celsius boot temp) 52x100 @any voltage - air - no boot 55x100 @1,57v - ln2 - boot ok - win xp -hdd + win7 -ssd totally benchstable: wprime 1024: http://hwbot.org/community/submission/2124921_oanvoanc_wprime_1024m_core_i7_2600k_2min_19sec_281ms 3dmark06: http://www.overclockers.at/benchmarks/3dmark-2006-highscores_214357?postid=3143512#post3143512

didnt...

wow! dient Know, you did this!

thanks, will change it. sorry.

nice efficiency you got congrats!

dont know what to say... im shocked and excited at the same time. ive never seen anyboody, putting his heart so much into overclocking grats!

yes, i tried this as well... thanks, but no gain i have no idea if should be like that, but i can just set the first 3 cores to 53x - the last one i had to keep "auto" otherwise the first 3 multiplier settings reseted back to "auto".

same problem here... no difference of temperature... my 2600k boots fine with 52 multiplier, but doesnt boot with 53, not on my ud4 nor the ud7. but i found out, i am able to boot with 53 multiplier, if i set the baseclock to 99 manually. anyway, no gain in total mhz

nice chip there which bios did you use? which batch? thanks

nice chip there

there seems to be a typo in cell c44 - 5900mhz the link doesnt confirm that

haha, i see a new hot debate starting soon what is reasonable priced? is it the common 1000 usd/euro for the high end chips? how about the intel xeon x5680 or the upcoming x5690 for 1500 euro or even more?

as tiborr stated already, there are new biosses out since 11.1.2011 for gigabyte ud4 / ud5 / ud7. will try the f7b and report back, if there is any improvement in terms of overclocking past multi 52 (for my chip) compared to the f6x released a few days ago.

i just hoped you wouldnt find this competition j/k

just played around with the ud4 and 2600k. cpu is capable of 5,1ghz (51x100) (3dmark06 cpu-test stable) with the following settings: internal cpu pll overvoltage: enabled real time ratio changes in os: disabled intel turbo boost tech.: auto turbo ratios: auto turbo power limit (watts): 1000 (auto works fine for me too) core current limits (amps): 500 (auto works fine for me too) cpu cores enabled: all cpu multi threading: enabled cpu enhanced halt (c1e): disabled c3/c6 state support: disabled cpu thermal monitor: disabled cpu eist function: disabled bi-directional prochot: auto voltage settings: load line calibration: enabled cpu vcore: 1,50v qpi/vtt voltage: 1,12v ("normal" works fine for me too) system agent voltage: 1,135v ("normal" works fine for me too) everything else: auto achieved with watercooler (single radiator in cold water was necessary as the load temperatures above 70 degree celsius resulted in crashing 3dmark06) for 5,2ghz i raised the vcore to 1,55volt

thanks for sharing. i got a 2600K - L039B470 - #0220 (sn:2v036...) 5200mhz (spi stable / 3d not tested yet) on cold water 1,55v(bios)/1,53v(real).

nice still waiting for the superpi 1m result

wow, thanks for the fast response. im still on xp... superpi-purpose you know still have no clue, why the q-flash tool didnt work. anyway, i used the "old" @bios tool from the gigabyte driver disk, which came with the mainbaord... the new version linked in my last edit worked now. thanks

im stuck trying to flash the f6x on my ud4... with q-flash utility i get the error message: "invalid bios image" with @bios the software crashes after reading 100% of the bios file. tried the f6x provided by massman and pt1t from here: http://hwbot.org/forum/showpost.php?p=87044&postcount=9 what am i doing wrong? edit: trying right now dinos suggested bios flash tool from here: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showpost.php?p=4695291&postcount=27 will report back later...

ok, thanks for the fast answer
