Its at stock speed though, is the thing. I'm gonna tell him to clear cmos.

HTPC Question; More cores or faster cores? Right now battling between the idea of a 555 Black @ x2 3.8Ghz or x4 @ 3.2Ghz? Trying to keep the vcore near stock or undervolted due to heat.

What you guys think? The PC does get used but barely and I very rarely ever have to encode on it.

Sir B. Fannybottom · Jan 21, 2012

I would say save your money and overclock that dual core.

Norton · Jan 21, 2012

Who me?

What are you using the HTPC for gaming, other, etc...?

Hi Kevin!!! The x2 unlocks just fine to x4. Still keep it to a faster x2?

LOL@Norton

It's basically an all around use rig but mainly to watch AVI's and Win MCE.

WELCOME BACK NORTON & KEVIN!!! XD

If it's just for movies I would say keep it a dual core and have it cool and quiet and when you need the extra boost you could load up a bios setting of it at 3.8ghz and use it like that

EDIT: I never left

Norton · Jan 21, 2012

Probably more cores- thanks to it being an unlockable 555, you have the options

i.e. should I buy a 2 core or a 4 core... BOGO courtesy of AMD :toast:

JrRacinFan · Jan 21, 2012

LOL @ never left

Well hey I just did a 3dm06 run on it and CPU sensor shows 55C on stock @ x4 3.2Ghz. GPU shows 46C. Guess I will keep it there and start working on undervolting. But more thought into this, with very little ram in that machine, I probably wont make use of the extra cores since I cant multitask on it much....

Hmmmm

Oh also here's my 3dm06 results

Not too too bad for a 720p gamer. just a touch slower than the wifes power hungry 3870. But that's also stock clocks with CPU @ X4 3.2Ghz.
Here's the temps

HUSKIE · Jan 21, 2012

4.5ghz@1.648v

with very sweet temperature see at attached file

those are some low temps for a HTPC, yeah I would say keep it at a quad core then, even oc it a bit

Norton · Jan 21, 2012

38-40 full load on prime95, this chip is very cool rather than my previous fx-4100.

Wow, sweet temps; and awesome clock. Your voltage is make me want to scream. :eek:

That voltages made my chip stable, amd can handled that voltages, i've been searched about the highest voltages for my chip, i'm not worrying. Happy now.

Irony · Jan 21, 2012

I've run mine at 1.65 before, for benching at higher clocks. But not for 24/7; I didn't want to risk it with safe voltage for thubans at 1.55.

scaminatrix · Jan 21, 2012

Yea 24/7 don't keep it above 1.55 man, back it down for everyday use

Chicken Patty · Jan 22, 2012

@huskie, while your voltage is scary for 24/7, the clock speed makes me happy. :respect:

HUSKIE · Jan 22, 2012

I'm not using 24/7 because i have job 12hrs straight. That's good for my pc.

So you turn it off? Or does it downclock/undervolt when not in use?
