No1Spank Posted October 23, 2017 Posted October 23, 2017 Should go well with a delid and some LN2 Quote
Members GeorgeStorm Posted October 23, 2017 Members Posted October 23, 2017 There's no need to delid Have you tested max fsb at the lowest multi? Quote
No1Spank Posted January 20, 2018 Author Posted January 20, 2018 No, but I did try it on LN2 and I couldn't hold speed long enough to save CPUZ file, think I had it over 4.6ghz. My pot was bolted on though as didn't have the right bracket so that could be the problem. Quote
ObscureParadox Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 delid it if you see temps go through the roof, otherwise don't bother Quote
Members GeorgeStorm Posted January 20, 2018 Members Posted January 20, 2018 You didn't sub anything for it when you had it on LN2? Quote
No1Spank Posted January 20, 2018 Author Posted January 20, 2018 It was delided but no I didn't get a sub, as soon as I loaded CPUZ it crashed every time even when I kept lowering the clock. The CPU is over 10 years old so I guess it was degrading fast. Quote
Members GeorgeStorm Posted January 21, 2018 Members Posted January 21, 2018 Ah that's a shame, any plans on going cold with it again, or other 775 stuff? Quote
No1Spank Posted January 21, 2018 Author Posted January 21, 2018 Maybe won't use that cpu again cold as it's past it's bext but I've got 3 decent X48 boards now and a few 775 cpu's. I coud do with a decent delid tool though as these old ones are really hard to do with a razor blade without damaging them. I bought one of ebay but it was rubbish. By the way Grorge now the competition is over what is the secret to decent scores with the GT 1030? I had decent CPU, memory and GPU clocks but still go beaten by people with slower setups. I tried tweaking every setting in the Nvidia 3d settings I could. Quote
Members GeorgeStorm Posted January 21, 2018 Members Posted January 21, 2018 There's no need to delid s775 cpus Err I'm not entirely sure, gpu boost 3.0 seems a bit like witch craft to me haha. For 03 you needed to use LOD, same with Heaven Quote
No1Spank Posted January 21, 2018 Author Posted January 21, 2018 (edited) I was using LOD, made a small amount of difference. Just looked at the maximum CPU speeds I got with the E-2160 on air. Before delid 2900 mhz approx on air. After delid 3200 mhz roughly on air. Something like 20 degrees C difference on one of the cores at 2.9ghz. I tried a TEC on that CPU but didn't upload as I wanted to stay in enthusiast league. I got 3.2ghz with that before the delid but once I did it the TEC was no better than just using a decent air cooler. In fact I think I got a few more mhz over 3.2 with just the tower cooler. I suppose for LN2 you are right it wouldn't make a difference, but I still like benching on air/water & chilled. Edited January 21, 2018 by No1Spank Quote
Members GeorgeStorm Posted January 21, 2018 Members Posted January 21, 2018 Ah interesting didn't think it made much difference. Well hopefully you get a chance to clock some more s775 soon, they're good fun! Quote
No1Spank Posted January 22, 2018 Author Posted January 22, 2018 By the way it was the E-2160 that I tried on LN2 not this E-2180. Got a bit mixed up as it was so long since I did this benchmark. Quote
