Great score but that card is under NDA until 9 January

So, I guess this is 12.1 !?

This is 12.1 or the same 11.12 from AMD FTP?

The first test is at 2.6GHz with 1 core active (same as FX-55) and the second one is at default setting (3.6-4.2GHz, 8 cores)

You very funny man, must drink again soon

No, I was benching 3DMark01 when in IDLE VCCSA VRM burned on the MB with flames, smoke and everything. That killed the CPU, Ithink ASUS should have implemented some kind of protection...

Hey, that's my hammer mod ) Congrats guys, keep it up!

Very High also worked best for me with Core 0 strongest. I hate that PSCheck thingy, hope ASUS will release a proper TurboV soon

Extreme or Very High? What core was the best for your CPU?

The difference between the first 5 teams for example is pretty small, how are these calculated? Also, how are the points distributed to the members of the team? Split by 2? Thanks

I want to feel the limit of the CPU, not the limit of the board so it's still a fail for me! BTW, UD7 had also a very bad cold-boot around 0 degrees... not touching that MB again

We tested UD7 / UD5 / UD3 yesterday and we had the same problems: CPU that did 5200MHz on ASUS R4E / P9X79 WS and ASRock X79 Extreme 4 barely stable at 4800MHz. Fail !

Yes! Also, here is also the CL9 WR (http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=2133007) and CL8 WR (http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=2133017)

Thanks guys! One week of pretesting and a very long day yesterday but in the end it was all worth it CPU NB - 1.625v VDDR - 1.95v with CPU and RAM at full pot!

Use the latest BIOS for best memory OC (I recommend 0083b). On R4E there's no significant gain in memory OC by using 2T, you can use 1T without any problems

For 4-way you have to use Win7 which gives much worse scores than WinXP and it don't scale with frequency past a certain point 3D03 scales with 3 & 4-Way if you have a high frequency CPU (read GT over 6200-6300MHz)

I thought the reason for giving points is to reward a good score, not a category is has absolutely no interest for benching. To bench 4-way in Win7 for 3DMark01 is like competing in the special olympics L.E: You're changing a little the rules of the game. You want to give normal people reason to bench and I get that, but the distribution of points does not reflect the value of score. This is just my opinion

This is one of the many problems that proves that I was right and 60 Global Point for every WR was a bad ideea: http://hwbot.org/forum/showthread.php?t=34300&page=2 95k 3DMark01 is a spectacular WR that deserves 60 Global Points? Note that it has more points than no. 7 in single card ranking which is infinitely more difficult to achieve: http://hwbot.org/submission/2213728_splave_3dmark2001_se_geforce_gtx_580_137407_marks Is it unfair or I'm crazy?

This is exactly why I said 60 Global Points for every unsignificant WR is a bad ideea

With R4E you don't need any tricks, you concentrate on what the CPU can do... that's how a board should be. Get R4E and then you will forget everything else

Try with them enabled and tri-channel P.S: You realize that on GD65 you used 2133MHz and on UD7 you used 2400MHz, right?

I tested with C0 and still the same... I think the problem is someplace else as I'm not the only one with this problem

Binning on air is useless, -10 to -20 should be a good binning temperature at around 1.6v just to be sure

Retail CPUs are C1, maybe you mean C0?

It doesn’t boot, the LEDs light up but the Debug LED don’t show anything. It seems like a problem with CPU VRM, just one phase lights up and the CPU does not receive voltage...
