Russians are unbeatable in these kind of benchmarks, but Bulgarians are not bad either

Nice score anyway! I expect a lot of dead/damaged APUs in this competition.

Nothing changed with -f. Took a look at the full commands list, but I don't think anything else can help.

Error: Image size (8392704 B) doesn't match the flash chip's size (8388608 B). That with the second command, the first one errors out with "Programmer initialization failed" and I get on both Calibrating delay loop... OK Bad command or file name (x4 times) I've tried with 3 bios versions and also tried with different file extensions - the original ones, bin and rom. The board I'm trying on is Asus M4A89GTD. Will try on Asrock Z77 OCF in a moment, 'cause I don't have a newer AMD moard than this (except Crosshair IV Formula which is similar to the M4).

Yes, I have a very bad luck with APUs. Guess I just have to sit back and watch. Billy, where? I can only see one bios chip on the board. PS: I have Extreme6, not 6+. Extreme6+ is not available in Bulgaria yet, so I had no other choice but get the older model.

Anyone know if there's a way to revive Asrock A85 Extreme6 after a bad bios flash? Not talking about a programmer device, because I can't find one in the weekend. Got the board yesterday and tried to flash the LN2 bios today. Loaded setup defaults, reset and entered instant flash. It's the first time I try to flash a new bios on this board. The process stuck at ~30%. Waited 10-15 minutes and it didn't move, everything appeared frozen. Had no other choice but restart and it's now dead. I only managed to install Windows PS: If it matters - I've used the black usb2.0 ports near the clrCMOS button.

Don't worry, staff will remove the wrong submissions. I think the problem comes from the feature which offers you to participate in the running competitions if your entry matches the rules. They just agree on the prompt.

Seems someone needs to fix the limitations

I never went above 1.5V for NB, but it still died and afterwards the board killed 5800K from the last country cup, because I was stupid enough to try it.

Congrats! You're the champion. Had a lot of problems, otherwise could eventually beat you at AM3 32M, but only there...

I have the same problem with cpu-nb. I can run 1M at 4GHz, but 32M not possible even at 3.4... It just shuts down after initial loop.

Efficiency without high cpu clocks won't get me far. This is my only result with the chip on LN2.

Both seem about right. Thanks for the help and good luck in the competition! You have the tools and the knowledge

1.5Ω for 6800K and 0.7Ω for 5800K I didn't use the slow mode. I was booting at 1.55V for the cpu and 1.45V for the NB, then gradually increase cpu voltage in ET. It was the second session, benched several hours on the first one and about 2 hours for the second. It died at 1.55V when I tried to increase bclk from 117 to 118 in ET (no voltage change in settings, just the bclk). Then tried to power on the board, but it seemed to have a short, because psu protection was kicking in. Stopped benching and dried everything carefully checking the board, no visual burn on the mosfets. Then tried it with both cpus and guess that's what killed the 5800, stupid me The old board turned off immediately with 8-pin cpu power connector attached, the new one keeps running. Hopefully the new board is still alive, otherwise I will have a hard time with RMA'ing everything if it gets accepted at all. Do a working board show something on the debug display when powered on without a cpu?

Nice score for the clocks Good job!

Can I ask somebody with UP4 check what post code is displayed on the debug led when no cpu installed? Something failed last week and I thought it's the board, because then I tried with 5800K and it was switching off immediately (I think the PSU protection kicks off). So I bought another UP4, but when I start the board only 2 segments on the debug display flash for a blink of an eye and it turns off (the led). Board stays on, but does not post. It's the same with both cpus and without a cpu installed. I though if both cpus are dead it should display 00, no? It would be pity if the faulty board killed the other cpu too when I tried it I'm scared to try the dead board again, so I will just throw it, don't want to risk the PSU too.

Thanks to websmile. I'm sure they can go higher on these timings, but the cpu has a bad IMC. Heck I'm not even pumping too much voltage through them. My "pot" brings them down to -100 (measured on the bottom of the ramsink) veeery slow.

310 euro, which is approximately $415 with an average salary for the country of 370 euro.

It happens all the time for me. Have to click on the recalculate link in the sidebar.

I'll try higher with gelid paste if I manage to get LN2 next week.

Great one. Now move to Sempron 145, because I need someone to push me go higher, there's more in my chip

The trick needs several tries. Try to hold the paperclip while you hit the power button or put it just after the start. I even managed to flash a DFI 790FX bios over the 990FXA-UD3 (had it on autoexec.bat on one of the usb sticks) But then revived the board with the same trick

Rofl, this is considered as the best FM2 board, I can't imagine how good are the others

Haha, that's clearly fake. You couldn't even cut the cpuz windows correctly. And where's your cpu tab? 3dmark windows is also cut at the bottom. Not to mention exactly same hardware and frequencies, same subtest scores. Common, do you think we are so stupid? It's so obvious... You will be banned shortly. Edit: The only thing you're right about. It's not photoshop, it's paint

Looking at global AMD 1M rankings it doesn't show my best Phenom II X4 965 result. Instead, it shows an older result Edit: After recalculation of my points and achievements it now shows a third score, but still not the right one.
