crazy

Hey for sell Asus GTX 780 DCU2 BOX with Samsungs memories. Prize - 400 euro shipped in EU. PM me

Great efficiency

Oktoberfest still affects you Sorry to hear

Don't take it personally but your price is too high because: 1. it's 4670K, not 4770K, slower (less cache), no HT 2. It's a very good CPU but not WR breaker 3. It's Hasfail it's so fragile and many ocers decided to skip this platform 4. For me Hasfail is dead platform too, I mean Andre killed Hasfail from the beginning doing crazy scores on ES cpu which can't be matched and cpus almost can't be killed I hate, simply hate situation (like with GT A0) that I know that I can't get CPU which can match ES scores. I use Hasfail only for contests, mem clocking but not because I like it. I think most ocers will agree with me.

Good cpu!

binning for HOT final?

+1 Currently I do dozens of RMAs from ocers from many countries but no one kills hw officially

Great

Today?

On AOOC about 8 cpus were dead after the contest (of 26). On MOA 3 cpus were dead of 30?

Nice!

More beer than LN2

Nice

No tweaks, all stock in 8.1, it's all about stability and mem efficiency.

I also added 5th tip about LN2 profiles.

After XTU installation you can install older ME and it will work

Why only talking about cpus? Mpower Max and Xpower kill memories (my experience after MOA).

For Turbo lite use ME driver which was posted in Shamino's M6OCPACK, it's working without bugs, on newer drivers I had some bugs too

I used turbo lite all the time during HOT and it was okay for me

Very nice

First TIP To keep our retails alive (and ES QEH6) we have to understand one main thing on M6E (and I think it's also works on Gene, Impact) - "Fully Manual Mode" was designed for almost indestructible QE6S ES cpus which can be benched 2v+ and for validation 3v+ isn't a problem (I saw it on my own eyes) and was designed cause originally VRM of cpus could only deliver 1.7 Vcore. For retails cpus and newer ES cpus we should play with default Intel's VRM overvoltage methods which doesn't limit us in voltages. Of course keep in mind that Haswell is Hasfail, it can die everytime, on each motherboard, in the box, it's not guarantee, but it helped me so I am sharing And the same for Cache voltage. Adaptive mode is also okay, moreover using slow mode it will set our Vcore to ~ 1.25v instead of let's say 1.8v. NOTE: When Fully Manual Mode is disabled you can't set VCore or Cache Voltage or SA/Analog/Digital via OC Panel (but still you can control Vdimm, Vcccin), only via VTurbo Lite all voltages can be set. Second TIP Never set LN2 Mode Jumper on air, firstly cool down CPU at -20/-30*C minimum. LN2 Mode Jumper when enabled, gives extra voltage at booting for VCore, Cache, I/O Analog & Digital and System Agent. Voltages depend from your CPUs VIDs and Bioses. 0038 bios sets much lower on I/O Digital & Analog and SA than older bioses (1.2v compared to 1.4v on 0036 bios). Many cpus can't handle 1.4v even on LN2, on air it sometimes ends with fast death. Note: You need to have LN2 Mode Jumper enabled in order to use Slow Mode switch and have higher range of voltages (Vccin). Third TIP Use 0038 and 0804 (official) bioses, from my testings are much smother, much less "00" heart attacks and much lower voltages when LN2 Jumper Enabled. Forth TIP For TurboEvo Lite or OC Panel use ME driver which was posted in Shamino's M6OCPACK, it's working without bugs, on newer drivers I had some bugs Fifth TIP Don't use LN2 profiles (1, 2, 3) those are good for OLD ES, not retails. Load LN2 Profile 1 for VRM setting and all other options in Tweaker's Paradise and set all voltages by yourself (for beginning recommended - 1.5v vcore, 1.5v Cache, SA +100-500, I/O Analog + 0-300, I/O Digital + 0-300). Note that on 0038/0804 bios SA voltage by def is 0.8v (depends from CPU also) (with turned off Fully Manual Mode), on many others boards SA def voltage is like 1.0v. Using those all 5 tips I stopped having dead Hasfails on M6E, last one was killed during AOOC (5 GHz in bios) on the same sample. I used the same board for HOT contest with my tips and all cpus (XTU and SPI) gems are alive

top 10/20 sounds okay, cause we only care about LN2 results

As finally I was forced to use XTU benchmark I spent some time on it It's not bad, even interesting I would say (I love memory influence on it, also there are few ways of running it so it's not bad). But we need screenshot like in HOT contest. I can't look at those tabs and so on without screeshot, it's boring, no emotions, no real clocks, no memory timings without screenshot it's useless. So if it's possible, please add obligatory screenshot rule (for top 10 or 20 in cpus category) or maybe integrate in next version mechanism like in Heaven so XTU file would have screenshot in it too.
