[200] Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 Frustrating for Bloomfield users. 2400mhz memory and 4800mhz uncore 1.85 v and 1.64v for stability... Keep on dropping a memory channel too lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splave Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 this is harder than I thought it would be even with 980x and gtx3 on SS cooling :0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quake Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Why is this no more team challenge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chew* Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 this is harder than I thought it would be even with 980x and gtx3 on SS cooling :0 Pro tip. Bloomfield will do 2400 ram easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quake Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 But 4800 uncore is hard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chew* Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 (edited) But 4800 uncore is hard http://chew.ln2cooling.com/qdig-files/converted-images/Corsair%20GTX2/DI/lrg_gtx2%20DI%202350.jpg If your dropping channels back off RTL a notch.........I was at bclock limit of that board with HT and all cores on......sure it would have ran higher but I never shut cores/ht off for reviews.

Quake Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 I didn't said it isn't possible, but it is hard... I know some of them won't do 4.8 no matter what and some of them will go even higher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quake Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Why is this no more team challenge? Anyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Dunno ... sometimes we do a team competition, sometimes we do user competition, sometimes country. There's no specific reason why this is a user competition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quake Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 But wasn't this in the first place team competition? And then renamed to members? If not, then I missunderstand something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Hm, I don't think so. I think I would remember, because I have tried to reconfigure a member competition to a team competition in the past and completely messed up the engine. Instead of being a team competition, it was a combination of user and team competition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x00x Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Question : Why memory restriction différence between lga 1156/1366 ?, because spi32m more efficiency under 1366 tri channel. I find that there is an imbalance and I also find it more easier to obtain frequency in 1366 than in 1156. in short, why not put the same frequency as on similar architectures 1156 and 1366 ?. excuse me for bad language, you can answering too in french Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 LGA1366 is more difficult to reach high frequencies with because of the MEM/UNC ratio on Bloomfield and of course the extra stress of 3x DRAM instead of 2. That's why the required memory frequency is lower for LGA1366. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x00x Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 yep ...I dont have x58 architecture in the hand .... but ... sandy wait now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oanvoanc Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 wow, just figured out there is a competiton like this going on. honestly, its not quite cheap to own all the required hardware 1366 board + cpu 1156 board + lynnfield + clarcdale cpu am3 board + deneb/callisto + thuban cpu 775 ddr3 board + cpu thats a minimum of 2000 euro for all equipment necessary is there any word about the prices? good luck for everybody participating!

Massman Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 my wife is angry !!! 8 hours for tame the ace of my clarkdale with his rotten memory controller... no sleeping with my wife but i'm happy ^^ For Clarkdale, it looks like Gigabyte's providing the best BIOS. DDR3-2100 should be possible on all boards, though. Tested 3x 655K and they all did the same clocks under single stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quake Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 What about sandy bridge for this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 I was going to, but haven't quite figured out what limit to use. 4.5GHz is easy, so memory should be more challenging. But maximum memory clock is just function of the maximum possible BCLK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quake Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 But we would have to find a way how to tight it as max mem clock wouldn't be hard to achieve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crew pro Posted January 14, 2011 Crew Share Posted January 14, 2011 sandy bridge doesnt really fit the criteria of max mem clock, it is so dependant on CPU and max bclk it sort of goes against all the other rounds of this comp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Only reason to do it, I guess, is to see how well you can optimize Sandy? Initial thought: 4500MHz CPU + DDR3-2200 minimum? Might be interesting to see anyways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
