Posted March 16, 20178 yr Guys, I am looking for a good 5960x for benching on water, if anyone has one for me please pm details. Ideally I would like one that can bench at or close to 5ghz and hopefully run 4500 at low volts too (hopefully these will go hand in hand). I expect screenshots or other proof of any claimed clocks. LN results will be no use to me, I need ambient results. Seller must be willing to post to Australia. Cheers :nana:
March 16, 20178 yr 4.5 low volts doesn't really do much for 5Ghz capability. I had a 4.5 1.13V chip that needed 1.45V for 4.9.
March 16, 20178 yr Here is what I have. 5960X - boxed - 2 years warranty left. With all paperwork available. Setup : Asus Rampage V Extreme. Custom watercooling ( 2 X RX480 XSPC rads ) + D5 pump. 4875mhz ( 125 strap ) core, with 1.42Vcore and 2.01VccIN 4500mhz cache ( 125 strap ), with 1.35V. LLC 8. Very good IMC, 32gb Trident-Z, B-die, 3333 ( 12-12-12-28-1T ), 1.55V. Cpu can run for hours any 2D or 3D benchmark at these settings, except XTU ( possible at 4.750 ) If you are interested, we can discuss privately. N.B. Shipping from Europe to Australia is pretty expensive with DHL or UPS.
March 16, 20178 yr I have one in my daily driver I run at 4.6 with 1.225v and have run it at 4.8 with 1.35. Does 5.7 on ln2. I'm only running a single Swiftech MCR320-QP rad so I've never pushed it hard on water. http://img.techpowerup.org/170316/capture1438.jpg MetalRacer`s Ryzen Blender score: 28.37 with a Core i7 5960X MetalRacer`s wPrime - 1024m score: 1min 3sec 308ms with a Core i7 5960X
March 17, 20178 yr Author Thanks guys, I have replied to all of you asking for prices and further testing on some. Keep them coming. :nana:
March 17, 20178 yr 4.5 low volts doesn't really do much for 5Ghz capability. I had a 4.5 1.13V chip that needed 1.45V for 4.9. I think what is wanting is one that can do 4.5 on "low volts" for daily use, and then if doing a bench run for a score, higher volts (like 1.45v for example) is fine.
March 19, 20178 yr Author Thanks guys, thats four very nice cpus there, I am waiting for some more testing on gunslingers cpu. It looks like these are it for now, anyone else have a cpu to offer? Thanks
March 20, 20178 yr I noticed you are also looking for an SS unit. I ran mine on an SS unit for a good while and 5.0 with 5000 cache wasn't hard. http://img.techpowerup.org/170320/capture026.jpg http://img.techpowerup.org/170320/capture005x.jpg http://img.techpowerup.org/170320/capture007x.jpg http://img.techpowerup.org/170320/capture029.jpg http://img.techpowerup.org/170320/capture033.jpg
March 20, 20178 yr Author Thats what I am hoping too, the hard part is finding a suitable single stage.
March 21, 20178 yr The one I was using for those screen shots died so I just got a new Little Devil last week and it is super nice.
March 21, 20178 yr Author So do you think any good single stage will do the job? Little Devil isnt a large capacity unit is it?
March 22, 20178 yr I think so. This LD is actually bigger than the one I previously had. I might just hook it up to the 5960x and see how it does.
March 25, 20178 yr Hooked up the 5960x to the LD and did some quick benches. http://img.techpowerup.org/170325/capture782.jpg
March 25, 20178 yr Hooked up the 5960x to the LD and did some quick benches. http://img.techpowerup.org/170325/capture782.jpg Very nice. Only mine ( which sold last night on eBay for 750 Euros ), does the same on ambient water. Still a strong cpu mate. To the OP, Mine is sold mate. Don't count it in your options.
April 2, 20178 yr Still looking for a strong 5960X? If so send me a PM and I'll send you details of 5960X cpu I have.
