Looks like your NB is well ventilated - the fan should push the air onto it, not pull - can't see exactly which direction from the pics. How's your airflow in the case set up? For myself, NB and SB temps are high as well, but airflow maintains it all at temps below 50°C, even for the 2 passive cooled NB's. Of course, my CPUs are not OC'd... ;) Thanks for the pics, great stuff!

Airflow is in from the bottom and front and out of the top and back. I'm not sure about the cooler, its stock.

The overclock is with Hyperthreading enabled. since the 5650 multiplier is setup 22x4 and 23x2 the OC is 4.8 on two cores and 4.6 on four cores.

If i could keep my north and south bridge cooler, I could probably maintain 220 bclk, but I get temp shutdowns when trying to benchmark.


my board limits my bclk not temps

with a 50% o/c i can rest my finger on N/B and i have a fan screwed on the S/B heatsink to stay at 62c

@Trinamo what is a stable o/c for you on 6c 12 th

Not at the moment. I'm on the job right now, I may get to post up one later. I'll see if I can cool it well enough to push 215 or higher.

I understand, same goes for my X5690 main machine - gotcha. Probably only useful for crunching during challenge time... ;) Still, an awesome OC! :pimp:

as soon as the challenge finishes it goes in a case. :toast:

This little beastie places # 11 in the world in the Cinebench rankings :peace:

Guess how much that cost to build (UK) ?
£ 325.00 # 11 in the world :clap:
out of 12 :peace::roll:

wait, how dow you overclock Intel Xeon X5650 to 3.9ghz?

oh, a 32nm process, codename westmere. there were unlocked xeons in the past?

if thats the case, i hope intel brings unlocked xeons again next time (at least those 10-20 core ones)..

I benched at 3.95 and it is the stable o/c i used during the recent challenge

i run now at 3.85 because i am sensible :peace:

the PC crunches at 100% 24 hrs a day i also use it as my main machine, when i game i suspend WCG. At the moment it is crunching at 100% i have about 12 web pages open 2 of which are streaming i am running spotify and Skype and all is well

So I got the bclk up to 216 stable. I hit 220 and was able to cinebench15 a score of 1011. But cinebench doesn't max out the multipliers.



I had to back it down to 216 to get it happy at 4.7-4.8ish on all six

Suhweeeeeet! Here to hoping for high GHz! If you're overclocking that is!
