Nice scores with 3870. I should revise mine.

Maybe I have #1 already, but it will fall short, I'm sure.

I could be just trolling this time, who knows Will have to wait for the next LN2 delivery for 32M, had a lot of troubles, but got it working at the end.

Not bad, I think. How is your board/cpu clocking ram? I have problems over 1200, but have tried BBSE only.

My info might be outdated, because I haven't checked that from a long time, but Z68 and P67 were more efficient with Sandy than Z77 last time I tried. Maybe Z77 bioses are now mature enough, because when I tried, it was some early MVF bios.

Put it on Z68 board

Not sure where I need to post this. I had problems with Gigabyte FA85X-UP4 - updated the main bios, restarted and tried to change some settings. Saved and restarted, then it was stuck at 84 code. Apparently, the main bios got corrupted (I guess during the flash process and trying to change some settings and save them triggered the bad block). Board was trying to load from backup bios, but what I got was just a blueish gradient screen with a gigabyte text. It seems the board didn't detect main bios is corrupted and that's why it didn't rewrite it with the backup bios. I tried different ram and cpu and what not, but didn't go further than that. Shortcut keys didn't work. So then I searched for the datasheet of the bios chips - MX25L6406E. According to the datasheet pin #7 is HOLD and pin #4 is GND, so I took one paperclip, shorted the pins and turned on the board. It booted and I released the short. Luckily it detected the main bios is corrupted and reflashed it with the backup. It might be useful for other people. This method should work for most of dual-bios Gigabyte boards.

Works in AHCI mode.

Anyone tried this combination of cpu, board and bios? I can't seem to increase the bus even 1MHz over default. If I change it in bios, board overclocking fails. When in windows it just freezes as soon as I hit apply in ET. Maybe the culprit is IDE/AHCI sata mode, but not sure...will try AHCI when I get back home.

Frank, you're still 3-4 seconds behind. Did you try the BDC tool? You have to set first option to Disable, then hit Apply.

My 24/7 chip is better than this. Have to sell this one and then will try one more, but doubt I'll ever see 8GHz. It just won't happen without massive binning and with these new chips the chance seems even lower.

No Stilt's Bulldozer Conditioner?

Kvelertak - Blodtørst Discovered these guys recently, don't know how I've missed that.

Yeah, really incomprehensible. I don't see what's the problem here. CPUZ shows core VID, not the actual voltage and even if it was the actual voltage, it might be possible to run 5.3GHz with 1.3V on LN2 full pot. Don't understand also why the score is questioned. It's horrible, yes, but how this invalidates it?

Damn it, what's wrong with these single chips? Dropped the stick on the floor and half of the chips were off already, so I had to check if I can remove them all. Failed!

Yes, cool contest, thanks! I have the boards and some mediocre cpus, but will play for fun. Let's see some records broken

W00t, 3rd places for AM3+ have $100+ higher values than the 2nd and for FM2 it is somewhere around 2nd places too

This is insane for a DDR3 board on air.

Hehe. I lost keyboard detection, so this is last I had saved, otherwise it did 515+. I was testing at 5MHz steps.

I'll check when I install it again, but I think it's due to the virtual machine mode. And I'm Linux noob

Yes, sure - 1242PNS. It's just a matter of time someone with big funds recognizes this category as a target. This is just my 5th cpu for the past 2-3 years.

4760MHz 1.5V boot from bios with Megahalems put on top. Never tried max validation on air. 6800+ possible on LN2, but I was stuck at "cpu overclock fail" after reboot and non-detectable 3 keyboards on any port at the end of the last session.

Got it working on my smartphone. First I tried Debian, but couldn't solve the java command symlink. Although there was a symlink in /usr/bin, it was still reporting that there's not. So I've installed the Raspbian. Here's my first run: http://hwbot.org/submission/2412106_i.nfrar.ed_hwbot_prime_4x_arm1176_s_1360.94_primes_per_second Phone is Lenovo A820 with Quad-core ARMv7 MT6589 chipset + SGX544MP video. What is the correct category to submit? Unfortunately MTK-based phones can't be overclocked yet, so I'm stuck at 1.2GHz. BTW, it's using 2 threads only, don't know why - maybe it's because I'm running it chrooted (as a slave OS). root@infrared:/# java -jar hwbotprime.jar java -jar hwbotprime.jar No native cpu speed library for linux yet... falling back to OS tools. --------- HWBOT Prime 0.8.3 ---------- Processor detected: ARMv7 Processor rev 2 (v7l) MT6589 Estimating speed... 2x 1,209MHz @ 37.347 C 976 MB memory Running benchmark using 2 threads.

Do you have load line callibration enabled? If not - enable LLC for CPU and disable LLC for CPU-NB, these worked best for me when I was using that board. You can't compare any air cpu cooler with DI no matter how great it is. Dry ice is -78°C. Even 1.65V is too much for this cpu on air, better stay in the 1.55V range.
