Thanks to both Ground and Tagg for the session! Was lots of fun, next time 300+Mhz?! :D

Definitelly! :) Just needs more fine-tunning. TBH im ashamed of this result for the horrible effi. Need to do better :)

Thank you for the Tip!

For some reason whenever i have enabled LOD, score went down. I will have to do some more testing using D3D overrider (never used before, nor heard of it). As you mentioned score should be over 300K easy, if i knew what am I doing wrong :)) Never had this effi issue with LOD before on Kepler/Maxwell, only with Pascal GPUs. Any ideas will be appreciated

Very nice chip! :)

Thats a lovely chip! :D Highest post i've personally seen was 7.92GHz (on this one).

Haha! Thank you guys!

Oh damn, it fell down from shelf, let me put it back up :)

Yep, true vcore.

Cool, thank you very much for the advice, will give it a try tomorrow

I've got back to the CPU recently. It does 4.7Ghz, 1.416v(real voltage) with Air cooling (Noctua U12S). Max BCLK was around 220Mhz with R II E, im not that experienced with X58 thou, so its possible it would go a bit further.

Hey Ocvt! In case of modern Intel platform, it is just PCH (platform controller hub), which has very low TDP (around 5w), and heat can be dispersed through PCB itself. Especially when you are using LN2, it makes stuff much easier to insulate from moisture. For example Z270 PCH has trip point on 127c, i would just suggest staying below 85-90c, and u should be safe. For example my laptop with C246 PCH (basically Z270) has also no heatsink/heatspreader and runs no problem with PCH below 80c after whole day of testing.

Hello Ocvt! It is true, that Teslas prefer cold before Voltage, on my GTX280 i was able to run FullPot without any ColdBug/ColdBootBug (just needed to remove Thermal monitoring IC). If i remember correctly I was running below 1.45v on the GPU, will yet need to re-bench it because my MOBO frosted all over and i lost all PCie lanes except x1... haha 🤣 : http://hwbot.org/submission/3902852_shaggysvk_3dmark_vantage___performance_geforce_gtx_280_21341_marks

Thank you M8

we have figured out, the bug is just showing max x47 multi instead of x27 but CPU still works on x27. found out after the benching, so couldn't really do much at that point. Like Tagg mentioned correct frequency is 3861MHz.
