At the end of the session I decided to test this cpu with safe vccin (2.2v); L312B332 cb -128c cbb -96c 2c 2t valid is still on the drive and only required 1.65v. Some 4c 8t action:

this guide = winning!

epic sheee peee uuuu!

woooot! M6E is running well I see, great work man I knew that cpu was special and showed us just how epic it is.

Well same shit here, 55 on both the first dimm slots and now a wounded 6.7 cpu, so much fail MSI. I procured another board and the Siamese twin to the wounded cpu is going in the failpower, wish me luck

Bro you rock, just had 280l delivered this morning glad I procrastinated and will bench this today:)

just for you girl

I think tighter timings would help especially at lower frequencies, but as Dumo has stated tighter is not always faster. I could not get 3100 with those timings to pass, but the good thing about my kit is it seems to like voltage, 1.9 on air is fine so I am hoping they do well on cold. Hiwa is correct being single sided hurts the most, but I think if you could get 4 dimms (full bank) to run it would cancel out the single sided performance hit, but I am sure the IMC would have a tough time coping with full bank, decently high mhz and tight timings (can't believe I just said tight timings and MFR in the same sentence:p). Thinking about strapping the pot on these suckers but so much more PSC to bin atm.

I feel like I just won the special Olympics of 32m benching:p:

Dumo is got MFR pretty dialed at 5Ghz, I want to say he was at 6:06:xx or lower off the top of my head.

love seeing this sort of thing, great work Pt1t!

Dumo going hard! Awesome work man.

Well I know for a fact I have degraded a few cpu's some with high voltages and others with what I would consider safe voltages, the most current one was damaged with 2.5 input and 1.74 vcore while simply ramping up the multiplier via software in Windows. All this was at -130c so don't think temp should have been an issue. Vdimm was 2.1v and after rebooting once it hit x59 it could never boot 5Ghz again at any uncore or voltage.

I can see it now, MSI is going to get so much crap for dead retail Haswell, but for once I don't think it will be the boards that have anything wrong with them, rather the cpu's just fail hard, so fragile and easy to damage. I don't think we even have to have the Titan death talk lol No more LN2 runs on Haswell from me except at 4/5Ghz as they don't seem to die there. Semi Finals will be interesting to say the least:)

Excellent work dude!

Rbauss why do you even care what happens in B Class, you have all ready secured your self a ticket it makes me wonder why you have such a vested interest in not allowing a 2600/2700K. Everyone else has/is securing a nice Sandy as it will be the winning setup, not sure why you expect it would be any different.

All ready out apparently, I will troll the local store tomorrow and see what is going on as mine should have them since I am very close to the San Jose Fry's where the first pics of a retail Costa cpu were re posted at XS.

Totally cool with that:) However before giving up, just wanted to know if 2600/2700K is allowed in B class.

Well at 5Ghz on Ivy I would say 6:15:9xx would be absolutely killing it and on Haswell I think 5:55:9xx is the fastest time to date, so maybe 21-23 seconds with similar cpu and memory clocks between both architectures. For Samsung I am sure you would need 3000+ c9 for it to be competitive with ultra tight secondaries and tertiaries, but where do such sticks exist, cause I know mine won't do anywhere near that at c9.

^55.8 or bust I am sure Andre is in the 54's though, can't wait to see his backup:)

Gogogo! Excellent silverware.

Thank you PJ, having a blast benching 32m on this board, though I still need to figure out how to get my BBSE working on this setup.

Nice DJ!

Good thing I just found a x58 2600K:) Still waiting to get clarification from Massman.
