Posted January 16, 201114 yr why you share one cpu to 2 members. post one cpu to one member plz. ps http://hwbot.org/community/submission/2107227_xpuctoc._superpi_core_2_e8400_3.0ghz_7sec_312ms
January 16, 201114 yr Does it matter? We both played with the CPU and this kind of cooling we cant post together, so.. .
January 16, 201114 yr @GraduS I`m not sure about the rules, but I cant see a problem when we both bench. I`m not going to upload his shot again, and he is not going to upload mine too. This way we both receive points and I think its fair. The CPU and the board are mine and he is supporting with memory and cascade, also helping with DICE on the NB so its 50/50.
January 16, 201114 yr I see nothing wrong as long as you don't submit multiple scores from same CPU/session into one category (benchmark) Extremely impressive job there, not many E8600 can hit 6.4 with cascade temps.
January 16, 201114 yr Yeah thx man that`s a golden CPU. For sure the CPU was not the problem here(I even didnt try to lower Vcore just wanted to be sure its not the CPU stopping me). The second core is worse(can run super pi 200-300Mhz lower) so if I disable it I can go way higher but we were running out of DICE, so next time I hope for more and may be LN2 for the NB.
January 17, 201114 yr Congrats! Im sure it can hit wr just need to work hard on LN2..anyway its very nice!
January 21, 201114 yr Next week LN2 for the NB . CPU will be on cascade again it does not need more cooling the board is the problem .
January 21, 201114 yr I wouldn't expect to see CPU to hit over 6.4 on cascade / NB scaling from going dice->LN2 you need to turn the cascade/LN2 the other way around and then give it a go
January 22, 201114 yr We will see where is the problem . This is with 2 cores enabled as I said the second core is worse and stops 200-250MHz lower so I`ll disable it and see what`s going on . Also I do not think the CPU is the problem at 710FSB I can run SPi 1M but it freezes at 15-16 loop, normally when CPU is the problem SPi crashes with error also I never tried Vcore above 1.8v . I hope i`ll have more time to play next week and see where the better cooling is needed .
