  1. I just beat a 6700K with HT disabled running 2 cores 2 threads overclocked on liquid nitrogen to 6159.6MHz with a i3-6100 with HT enabled 2 cores 4 threads overclocked to 4,801.16MHz on air by 31.4 Marks. It certainly seems like that invalidates a bit of your blanket statements.

     

    I don't know as if it runs better with cores turned off versus on it's plausible though. You'll have less throttling to worry about that could skew results up to a point though that's true with any benchmark that's not overly multi-threaded as well.

    I don't think that does anything other than validate what I'm saying. You ran memory and CPU speeds that are massively lower than the existing first place and somehow beat it. The benchmark is fucked.

     

    Your 3110 12-13-13 isn't somehow faster than l0ud's 3900 11-16-16. As more evidence that no one runs this benchmark, people are doing 4080 12-11-11 with B-Die but no one has submitted a run to beat l0ud's, even though the frequencies are possible.

  2. Only because there isn't a lulcatz benchmark that fills your screens with animated cat meme gifs til your PC reaches 100% CPU usage and records how long it takes...yeah some developer is going to copy that idea just you wait!

     

    It's a bad benchmark because it's basically broken. It scales massively with CPU speed, it performs better when you run with less cores and HT turned off, etc. People don't really run it anymore.

  3. As the pot gets cold, the rods get frosty and get stuck in the hold downs, which can make swapping processors or platforms difficult. Doubling the holes that the rods pass through is going to make this twice as difficult. I'd avoid it if possible.

     

    This is more true with LN2 but can still be an issue with dry ice.

  4. Mine ran full pot with no issue at all as long as it was in single channel and QPI volts weren't too high, but it was just a retail. The Q3FE chips weren't supposed to have that same issue... full pot with any QPI and full memory banks. At one point, the 980X top ranking was all Q3FE chips. After a while, people found strong retails that would run full pot or really close to it and the ranking has spread out since then.

  5. Hey Bullshooter, a lot of GT chips actually can go full pot. I had a B1 chip (retail) that could do it in single channel but as far as I was aware, all A0 (Early 2.40GHz ES samples) chips could do it. I'm trying to figure out why the one I was using couldn't.
