Insane :O

crazy fsb!

P6T just isn't a good board for BCLK. You can improve the behavior a bit by flashing it to P6X58D, but it still won't do amazingly well. Most boards top out around 8200 QPI, strongest boards I've had were doing 8800ish. There is little reason to increase QPI anyways, it only improves throughput to the chipset; not relevant to any 2D benches. As a matter of fact, I usually bench with QPI Slowmode enabled (which stock P6T doesn't support), since that allows running higher BCLKs. CPU matters a lot for BCLK capability; 32nm chips vary from 220-260ish, with outliers into the high 270s (though 270+ is <1% of chips). 45nm is usually worse, with chips ranging from 210-240ish. early 30xx chips usually don't do particularly well on that either. I never managed to kill any x58 boards with voltage, though scaling is often nowhere near worth it to bother increasing them far enough. Good chips typically do 4500+ Cinebench R15 at 1.3V; going up to 1.4V my best chips end up in the 4760+ range. CMOS battery holder I wouldn't even bother, I never bother with a bios battery anyways, makes booting up the system after a session on cold far less dangerous not running one in the first place, and improves your habit of documenting settings.

Very strong!

IC shape is also quite unique, only other DDR3 ICs with non rectangular edge are 1Gbit BASE (non hyper), which, to my knowledge, doesn't show up in bins higher then 1600c7 and 512Mbit BASE, though that one is almost square and isn't gonna show up in 2GB Dimms anyways. 1600 6-6-6, 1866 7-8-7, 2000 8-8-8, 2133 8-8-8, 2250 9-9-9, 2200 8-8-8, 2000 7-8-7 and 2250 8-8-8 are almost safe bets to get hyper (some gskill 2000 8-8-8 are BBSE). In my experience, corsair bins are the best bet; as unobtainable as GTX2 and 2000c7 are, they are much stronger bins then pretty much anything else around. Best findable bins are triple kits of 1866c7 and 2000c8 corsair, but much beyond 2000 6-7-5-20 2.0V is not common on those bins on ambient cooling, though I've found some unicorns...

So glad to see this concept working out :D

Congrats! First one managing Fullpot on Cezanne?

Who needs firewire, Esata or Audio? Congrats!

550 fsb on a 45nm quad on asus p45 is really impressive!

Crazy chip and great work getting the max out of it! :D

impressive! Board seems like magic for quads :D

Congrats!

I knew the rotated NB had something for it :D Glad to see it do as well as I expected!

sock goes brrrr!

Highest clocked 6 core ever! Congrats!

Only an issue for valids now, convinced Leeg last year to allow old CPUz for legacy (1156 and older) validation screenshots. Its the last item in the FAQ: https://hwbot.org/faq Great score Nik! Keep at it!

He is back!

So you are telling me I have to bin these? :D Congrats!

Incredible! Glad to see DR at the top again!

you do not need an email linked to your CPUz valid (it doesn't show up anyways), just enter right username every time while uploading validation file.

UD3L and UD3R should be easy mode

E8600 too http://valid.x86.fr/88xws9 Done 710 fsb+ on all 3 E0 chips, also 725 on C0 E8400. Need to try out E8200 and E8300, just haven't had any in my hands yet...

Congrats to the winners! Glad to see so much participation

not bad :D
