8x, where x stands for month #. The earlier the better. 9x seems to be worse.

Luumi - Core i7 3770K @ 7139MHz - 5sec 47ms SuperPi - 1M

Awesome cpu rescued from s/h -
I don't use it and still get strong results. I know a lot of people who ignore wahaha! too. Not a thing you should care of, really. All you need is basic OS tweaking, strong tweaking of hardware (clocks, timings, RTLs) - that alone will make your 32m runs strong. Don't use wahaha!, that is really specific thing.

ChintzyPC - FX-8350 @ 7340.4MHz - 7340.39 mhz CPU Frequency
TerraRaptor replied to TerraRaptor's topic in Result Discussions
Fx8350 has 4 modules, each made of 2 cores. To get the best possible score, it is recommended to check overclockability of every module (you can adjust multiplier for each module independently on the fly in windows). I.e. my best module with fx8120 was module #3, doing 500mhz higher than the worst ones (modules #1 & #2). So I would keep all modules enabled, set bad ones low multi and overclock the best module. -
Make it simple. Install XP, make general tweaks (critical ones are - /maxmem=600 (in boot.ini), largesystemcache 1 and disablepagingexecutive 1 (in regedit)). Reboot. Copy superpi executable to desktop. Copy ocxspitweaker folder somewhere and send shortcut of tweaker to desktop. Now open superpi and make ready for 32M run, open OCXtweaker and run C>D waza of 1400MB (tick "exit after execution", sleep time of 0 seconds). 30 seconds after tweaker completes wazza and closes itself, run 32m. That's it, 95% of OS efficiency is there. RAMdisk, theme tweaks etc aren't really essential (sometimes they work, sometimes they don't). First learn how to run 32m with basic wazza and then proceed with more advanced tweaks (wazza type/size, ramdisk, theme etc).

With just two slots available I had to use 4gb sticks. Also, I was pretesting with e7500 (1 core disabled to emulate L3014) and saw almost zero peeformance gains tightening timings ( like, 10% improvement in aida64 cuts only 1-2 seconds) - probably y-cruncher isn't that bandwidth/latency hungry with a single core.

POLL: CPUZ Feelz, let your opinion be known.
TerraRaptor replied to Splave's topic in Benchmark software
I see no other value in cpuz validation except highest possible frequency for a single core. Too many ways to manipulate/cheat if it will require all cores/HT enabled anyway (priorities, affinity, forced throttling etc). We already have multithreaded benchmarks to evaluate "all cores active" frequency. CPUZ is about the edge of stability and nothing else (well, plus some basic system info). -
Press start to create bootable acronis media. Then copy *.tib image to usb. Then boot from USB and once acronis true image is launched, recover *.tib image following wizard steps.
