rickss69 Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Yes. We are aware of that . Who said this was supposed to be easy? That being said, why don't we make this a low volt contest then... Quote
Massman Posted November 16, 2009 Author Posted November 16, 2009 That being said, why don't we make this a low volt contest then... ? Because it has already started? Quote
BenchBros Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Yes. We are aware of that . Who said this was supposed to be easy? It was no critical comment... no attack against the rules... it was just a snippy note Its a challange within the competition... so all its fine, no problems To beat a WR is always not easy... also in this MSI competiton!

Massman Posted November 17, 2009 Author Posted November 17, 2009 Look at it from the bright side: the moment you break that world record, you will feel SO happy Quote
Garrett_Wu Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 Hazzan (Team OCX) just broke the CPU-Z world record of Core i5 750!! Ho ya~ http://hwbot.org/listResults.do?cpuModelId=1936&applicationId=13&filterUser=true&filterBlocked=true&limit=100 Quote
dami1stm-florian76-jmax_oc Posted November 18, 2009 Posted November 18, 2009 Congrats MSI. 200Mhz more to go to beat the overall Lynnfield record! it won't be easy and congrats to Hazzan, awesome cpu (and bclk) ! Quote
bartman1973 Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 any news if who won the bigbang raffle? Quote
Massman Posted November 23, 2009 Author Posted November 23, 2009 Update will be today in the newspost Quote
Topalof Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 (edited) thanks. this has not been easy, but after long hours, I managed. I had to do 10 or 15 times 5735mhz to validate it will be difficult to do best,but i will try. for this time,i work on the 32m stage bye Edited November 23, 2009 by Topalof Quote
Garrett_Wu Posted November 24, 2009 Posted November 24, 2009 (edited) Just found out Toplof broke Lynnfield CPU world recore @ 5735MHz with MSI P55-GD65 (http://hwbot.org/competition/msi_xs_p55?tab=info), but Hicookie broke it again less than 24 hours. seems Gigabyte is watching MSI closely, maybe because MSI kick some serious ass on Gigabyte's "beat me if you dare" , heheh. Anyway, finally a excellent contestant just won the first world record break prize, congrats!! EDIT: Sorry for misunderstanding, what I meant is "an ecellent contestant can win WR prize if no one can beat Toplof", still only 1 WR prize for stage winner if he/she break WR also.

Anyway, finally a excellent contestant just won the first world record break prize, congrats!! thanks but if I read what RB said I haven't win anything right now the one who wins the cpuz part wins the WR price too. Home page, two different test yet? but rules should be cleared because when I read garrett post I think I've win the wr price... ps:sorry for my english,I'm helping a friend Quote
Chaos Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 c'mon guys .. Topalof and others with those crazy CPUs .. dont tell me you can get better wprime score? waiting for the end of competition? Quote
|ron Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 We, at hwproject.net, are out of games... we bought a gd80 and a gd65, both mobos aren't so good... the max score we achieved is 5505mhz on phase but when we talk about max 32m frequency it's a disaster. Both mobos are very unstable, they can't manage ram to go up... saturday we spent about 5hours on the gd80@ln2 but we didn't score nothing good to be posted. Quote
Massman Posted December 7, 2009 Author Posted December 7, 2009 So, you're not even going to try for a luck draw? Quote
|ron Posted December 7, 2009 Posted December 7, 2009 Jmke, we already did what was possible to do... about 60liters of ln2, hours at phase, 2 mobos and 2 cpus. This last 860 is muuuuch better than the first one (5266mhz under phase the first one, 5505 the second), but when we go with ln2, the whole thing screws up... and I'm not talking about -100°c, I'm saying that even at -40/-50 it's all unstable, crashes every 10seconds, ram that won't go up etc... There's only a week remaining, no time to buy other mobos, hoping in a better luck. That is what I mean when I say that we're "out of games", not that we didn't partecipate We do our best since the first day of contest @Pieter: I'm curious on how much will our 860 improve on a big bang... if not at the lucky draw, we will probably have one of these mobos by buying it, just to see were that cpu can reach. 5505 at SS phase is not bad at all... we have also a screen at 5529,96 (yes, 0,03 mhz less than coolaler ) but we didn't post it because we thought we could improve it saturday under ln2... we were wrong.

Topalof Posted December 8, 2009 Posted December 8, 2009 (edited) c'mon guys .. Topalof and others with those crazy CPUs .. dont tell me you can get better wprime score? waiting for the end of competition? hi, not,but I have very very bad scores at wPrime,i don't know why... i've test all os/sp pack,but still very bad...i seek... the wprime score of andre yang is crazy, for the frequency a magic tweak??

Same problem here, at first the system was promising, validated 4950MHz on water, but memory stability was a joke, could use 2hours to get it boot with normal timings/mhz, tried 3 different kits, but same same.. Under dice the system got even more unstable Quote

Under dice the system got even more unstable Hi Noxon, we have tried the two 860s on gd80 and even on gd65... the first one had a better Memory Controller (we did 2,4ghz 8-8-8-21 with ease) but probably due to a baaaad core, the whole thing didn't want to go higher than 5.400mhz under ln2. The second cpu did 5.529,96mhz under phase at cpuz, but no chance to bench with ram over 2ghz and you know, in benches like 32m and wPrime is all about ram. So... no decent scores and there's too little time remaining to do other tries. But, as always, it has been a good experience for all the team, benching at ln2 with a rig that we didn't know at all before... we enjoyed this competition p.s.: glad to see we're not the only team with silly problems in that contest Edited December 9, 2009 by |ron Quote
Crew Olesius Posted December 9, 2009 Crew Posted December 9, 2009 Same problem here, at first the system was promising, validated 4950MHz on water, but memory stability was a joke, could use 2hours to get it boot with normal timings/mhz, tried 3 different kits, but same same.. Under dice the system got even more unstable hey guys... I have same problem too... 5ghz (4c,4th) has been submitted by Air!! http://hwbot.org/result.do?resultId=928609 but under ln2 any thing get crazy!! system get very unstable... All bioses and all dividers have been cheked... It's so bad.... Quote
Massman Posted December 9, 2009 Author Posted December 9, 2009 In my overclocking sessions, I did notice that the GD80 likes to boot at a bit warmer temperatures than it was being run at during the bm's. IIRC, I was booting at around -60°C and going to -70°C to run benchmarks. Lower than this was quite hard to get stable, only worked well for CPU-Z. Quote

We tried... we tried also to get in windows at -40° and then go down to -80/-100... nothing to do... Quote
Massman Posted December 9, 2009 Author Posted December 9, 2009 -80/-100 is really low for Lynnfield, that might actually be the reason why the board acts so unstable. I'd suggest to start benching at -70°C. Quote
