The Stilt Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 If I wasn't so tired currently I would have thrown the setup from the balcony. The motherboard failed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoMS Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) Amazing!!! Is Zambezi still faster than Vishera on SuperPI even using "The Plow of Bulldozer" on both? If the answer is yes, sub-9s with AMD can be a reality eh? Edited June 14, 2013 by NoMS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I.nfraR.ed Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Awesome, you're bringing Piledriver to a whole new level! Noone was interested in benching 15h for Pi, but now it would be interesting... Oh, and Insomnium: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Awesome! I might try that 8G FX-8350 again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massman Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Honestly, I don't know why no company is hiring you as addition to the RD team. You not only managed to "out-code" every single AMD ODM BIOS team, but now also managed to figure out a fix for a benchmark that made AMD look superslow compared to previous products. Have you declined offers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crew pro Posted June 14, 2013 Crew Share Posted June 14, 2013 lol talk about hiring. i was chatting to one of the guys from bios team and she said she was there for "only" 8 years. That's considered a junior position still LOL damn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No offense to you. I know the people who make these decisions are in completely different departments and there's more than just "enthusiast" as requirement.

The Stilt Posted June 14, 2013 Author Share Posted June 14, 2013 Amazing!!! Is Zambezi still faster than Vishera on SuperPI even using "The Plow of Bulldozer" on both? If the answer is yes, sub-9s with AMD can be a reality eh? I'm not sure if the difference is still there after the new AGESA & µCode versions. If it is, < 9 seconds will happen in no time. In any case < 9 seconds will be easy on Vishera too. The part I was using yesterday was an ultra low leak / ultra high aq specimen, which maxes out at ~ 1.97V on LN2. During the 9.547 second run on the video, the voltage was around 1.89V during the PI. 1.50000V VID + 0.4V offset, loadline set to 0.525mOhm ("Ultra High"). The newer (packed >= 44/12) FX-8 -series parts should be able to do SuperPI 1M at 8GHz - 8.2GHz, if you have a good specimen of course. My clocks were ~ 7900MHz (31.5 * 250.8) in the 9.547s run. Also disabling the "slave" cores on Zambesi should still help in SuperPI as the remaining "master" core will have a full L2 cache and L3 partition for it's private disposal. For Trinity and Richland there is no difference any more between the masters and the slaves. Not sure about Vishera as its been a while since I tested it. At some point I will see what happens when you have a 4MB L3 cache per CU instead of the normal 2MB. This naturally requires downcoring as only 8MB of L3 physically exists. The same configuration is used in some of the Opterons, FX-4350 and partially in FX-6 series (1x 4MB, 2x 2MB). Of course you could set 4MB for the executing CU, 2MB for the seconds CU and 1MB for the remaining two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crew Strunkenbold Posted June 14, 2013 Crew Share Posted June 14, 2013 Incredible result! Nice to see some AMD superpi performance. It seems Im the only one who dont knows the app "The Plow of Bulldozer"? I cant imagine a 2-3sec increasement in sp1m by just manually alter some pstates so it must be the app, or whatever kind of magic you apply here... ...and why did the little bulldozer lost its plow? Sorry for asking Im just curios Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
