Not always

So a good air chip could turn out to be a dud on ln2? Can it also work the other way, a good ln2 chip is no good on air?

I don't know, but I don't think so

It's possible that a golden air chip is not golden on LN2. Atm you have to bin decent air chips and bin on LN2

Thanks guys. I'm waiting for the soc force and then I'll be getting on the Skylake bandwagon

In theory I heard that with Skylake we should test all chips on ln2 (air clock/voltage doesn't matter that much), but deliding all cpus is not possible for us I would go with Air binning and later LN2 testing with best air cpus after deliding. On the other hand, it's always like that great AC cpus are not always good on ln2 (Haswell, even some Ivy-Bridges had walls, Haswell-E have walls especially from J batches). It's hard to be extreme ocer

Exactly. First test on air and get rid of the bad ones. Then test the good and very good ones on LN2.

Which picture?

Just put the ihs back on the chip, close the socket and have fun!

 

That answer is more that enough...Now I am sure that is how I was thinking. Thanks.

 

Now to wait those 6700k and SOC Force on Newegg...

You can go easy with asus or asrock,strong boards for sure ,no need to wait

seems i have a heist to do

Just picked up L528B169 6700K. Will update with results this evening!

 

would love to see the results you get with your 6700k, i have the same batch number as you have. i just have to wait till next week to get my board.

Hope yours isn't like mine! 1.46V for 4.8GHz. Boots 5GHz at 1.40V but no semblance of stability in sight.

 

I think a delid will help a LOT with the chip though. On water where my 6600K was loading at 66°C, the 6700K was loading above 90°C.

L531B299 (6700K) just arrived but cant test until my board gets here Grrrrr

1,46v for 4,8ghz and 1,40v for 5ghz? How do you test?

seems 4.8 bench stable and just boot 5g

I checked at 6700k I had here on function, it did geekbench 1,32v 4,8ghz, I don´t think it would boot 5ghz with 1,25v - but let´s wait for explanation, maybe I don´t see thigs clearly on skylake

1,46v for 4,8ghz and 1,40v for 5ghz? How do you test?

 

1.46V CB Stable and 1.40V 5G Boot. Temps get out of control immediately at 5G at 1.50V. Needs a delid.

6700k L519C192 - 1.239 vid / 5ghz 1.39v boot win7 / not stable to do anything even at 1.45v.

ln2, -165 6.270ghz cinebench 1.85v. 6.3 should be fine once i managed to stop cracking paste and go to -185. No cb or CBB.

 

I think this is a good batch. will try bin more with Weez

Wow... That 5G sounds a lot like mine. Maybe I should freeze it!

please do so we can see if the batch is important . delidddd

Vid vivi??? Mine better one is similar on air l523b vid1.264

Looks like 1.239v.

the mad dutch dude is right
