I've been looking for quite sometime on ebay, only seen some Corsair 2000 CL8, nothing more. Maybe I'm just not looking correctly

Anyone?

Looking for some good ol' Hypers so that I have some fun with X48 & X58 EU only because of stupid customs... I'm located in Greece and of course I'll cover the shipping costs.

και 3D στο SS, δώσε πόνο λέμε :D

Μπράβο ρε Βάγγο!

Everything's blue now, apart from the PCMarks :D

Nice one Vaggo!

Welcome to the subzero club Vangelis :D

Willamete going crazy at 167MHz FSB :D

It says single vga single gpu only, so the 6600GT Dual and all that are probably out?

Nice one Stelio :D

Good job!

Fucking awesome Allen! That's a proper WR!

There's no way to overclock the bclk on your mobile platform Only thing you can do on the 5200U is use throttlestop to disable power saving features, enable constantly max turbo multiplier and in general have it pushed to its maximum factory settings all the time. http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/the-throttlestop-guide.531329/ It's been a long time since I've last used it so I don't remember all the settings but the guide should be sufficient enough. If you can't change the maximum wattage allowed and you need to change it for some reason, you can use Intel XTU. I don' think it's needed though. Also if your laptop doesn't have an SSD for whatever reason, please install one, it makes a massive difference.

Another thing I've found about pifast (Stelaras has confirmed it too) is that if you use a really really chopped up windows xp, you actually make it worse. A 150MB Win XP installation is perfect, no less though.

The easiest way to run pifast in real time priority, is to run the hexusFastR shortcut from the rar I've attached No need for PriFinity, Lasso, or any of those tools. Other than that, PiFast pretty much likes what SuperPi does. Priority, affinity, lighten the OS a bit, RAM timings, sometimes also maxmem and a simple copywaza (depending on the platform). Put a folder on desktop that has 700MB files inside, or 1GB, whatever you like and just copy it once to C, then run it multiple times until you get "the best" score. @Leeghoofd is right about the win7 thing too, I've noticed that sometimes, pifast is faster on windows 7 on some platforms. For all the older processors I bench though, I use Windows XP of course. hexusFastR.rar

Wow, props to you for all this DDR2 binning, damn! Any tests on 4-4-4-12 or even 4-4-4-4 for SuperPi 32M with your best kits? They'll need a bit more voltage of course, 2.2V is too low. My PC2-8000 Cellshocks (D9GKX) could do 600MHz 4-4-4-4 32M @ 2.5V and 630MHz 4-4-4-4 1M @ 2.65V but unfortunately, after all these years, one stick has died It was nothing spectacular, there were much better DDR2 kits out there, but it still hurt ? I think up to 2.4-2.5V is relatively safe, I'm sure I destroyed my RAMs by feeding them 2.75V+ at some point.

Nice one dude!

With G470 I only benched on win7 as well because I was bored I was so tired from all the x265 and XTU benching (was trying for days) so I went through the rest of the benchmarks in a few hours

This tweak only helps a little bit. Most of the efficiency derives from the OS. Vista is not always the fastest, you need to try XP too, depending on the CPU.

Congrats dude! Is the new version of x265 much faster than the previous one clock per clock?

wow poparamiro sad to see you leave overclocking dude Good luck with the sell of the chiller, it's a beast no doubt!

Ugghhh I just didn't have enough time to bench wprime properly on the G470. Basically you need to find the best OS for wprime, and also put wprime.exe in different places. Put one wprime.exe on the desktop, one in C, one in D etc. Start the one that you have on desktop and bench it again and again until the score can't improve, then close it. Start the wprime.exe that's located in C, bench it again and again until the score can't improve, close it. Start the one that's located in D, same procedure. One of these wprime.exe will always give a slightly better result than the others - just a tad better, it's not a supertweak or something After several tries you'll eventually get a good score

Damn what a nice find! Tough board though... I recall that the best X58 boards were the R3E and R3E BE. No fsb wall, easy to bench, both boards were flying on LN2! As Tasos said, the Bloorage needs to be hardware modded and you also have to use an IDE HDD with really high pcie in order to achieve these FSB numbers.
