Massman Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 Did anyone already kill an Ivy Bridge CPU? At this weekend's EOS event two died (not mine). I've been booting up at 1.92V with several chips and never saw anything close to death. So, I'm wondering: have you guys killed Ivys already? And if yes - how? Quote
SF3D Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 MY ES 3770K died at 5GHz Linx run on watercooling with 1.5V I am hardcore overclocker! No issues on Ln2 1.9V+ runs, so that is weird death for real. Quote
thebanik Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 Killed mine, due to my stupidity. Left the Power on, after a disappointing session. Currently soaking in Rice for the last few days....Maybe will test out today. But ofcourse Intel can not do anything about the above stupidity. Quote
MaJ0r Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 I wrote it: one my cpu degradated or something like that, no booting OS at default voltage(auto or manaul doesn't really matter) but it still alive ))) Quote
Planet Posted May 21, 2012 Posted May 21, 2012 Yes I have two that died both retails. One for some reason the Clear CMOS button didnt work and it booted up at 1.92v on air. The other one seems to have stopped detecting memory. Quote
Gamer Posted May 25, 2012 Posted May 25, 2012 (edited) Seems like I killed HTT on Ivy Bridge. No way I can do Wprime with this cpu 4C/8T. Instant BSOD when trying. Seems like the hyperthreading is borked, Wprime with 4C/4T is working ok. Same problem as the post above Edited May 25, 2012 by Gamer Quote

Gamer Posted May 25, 2012 Posted May 25, 2012 As long as all cores are working ok, I will not rma it. Or they have to send me a better one Quote
NoGuru Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 I had one just slowly stop posting first day I bought it. Nothing hard on it just basic getting to know the BIOS and stopped posting. New one runs great though. Oh, 3770K. Quote
der8auer Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 My CPU just died Srsly no idea why? 4,2 GHz, 1,2 Volt on air. Wanted to clock to 1,4 Volt 4,8GHz with GTL on GIGABYTE UD3H and it froze. Now CPU is dead. WTF Quote

I already changed the paste on mine just been testing on air already tryed 1.4v 4.8 wprime it droped temps from 90c+ to under 80c hope I get to bench on ln2 tonight Quote
der8auer Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 Yea that was the chopped one... That sucks pretty hard. Was a realy good CPU. Quote
Crew Leeghoofd Posted May 26, 2012 Crew Posted May 26, 2012 priming on it ? what happened, spike ? overvoltage ? Quote
der8auer Posted May 26, 2012 Posted May 26, 2012 i got no idea.. It justed died idle while I tried to put 1,4 v on it and set multi to 46. Quote
rsannino Posted May 27, 2012 Posted May 27, 2012 Which batch do you have? Even I have degraded two CPU Batch L212BXXX... Quote
K404 Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 Sorry to hear bro You will not be the last person to have such bad luck though Quote
Crew Turrican Posted May 31, 2012 Crew Posted May 31, 2012 i feel sorry for you chris. i think we all have to go through such things sometimes. Quote
Eeky NoX Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 Well now I'm thinking about benching Sandy again tomorrow.... My 2 Ivys should be safe in their boxes Very sad for you all, especially for you SoF That situation sucks hard... Quote
just_nuke_em Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 Sucks to have hardware die when not abusing Yea that was the chopped one... That sucks pretty hard. Was a realy good CPU. I'm curious, can you do the new RMA thing that Intel announced recently with that chip? Quote
Splave Posted June 3, 2012 Posted June 3, 2012 2.2volts on maximus V formula, killed immediately (not a good chip lmao) but a great keychain! Quote
