I knew you would like that is why i posted as many as i could

Does the overclocking fun begin tonight or can i go to bed?

There is 19.5c room temperature, 51.5% Humidity an a Dew Point of 9.1c, the Waterchiller temp is 22.4c, ( both Machines ) mininum i could drop the water's temp is 2c above Dew point to avoid condensation, that said i could give it a try

Almost there

<4.9Ghz for 1.6v

R 15

Pleeeeeease

Pleeeeeease


R 15

Just give me a few minutes because for that i need to increase the voltage to at least 1.65V

 

[CAPSLOCKSTUCK]

Theres no way im off to bed.

Adjusting voltages 1.65V not enough for R15

Im a bit more sophisticated than that

Go on then, benchies?

hey guys, I'd like your input as to : would you pull the trigger if possible on a dual xeon e5 2686 v3 (hacked, 3.5ghz turbo most cores) with an asus z10pe-d8 ws, gtx 1080 superclocked SLI, assuming it is doable money wise and with superb value, while currently I'm running one of those procs in x99(cinebench= 2600pts).

What uses could such a rig be put to, or is not worth the hassle for gaming and workstation use alone(and E-peen of course...).

One reason I can think of is you only live once...

P.S. currently it is 18 core/ 36t , upgradeable to 36c /72t

well the question is do you need more cores? you would need to be doing a lot of things to use all them, it would be some heavy multitasking, dare i say, extreme megatasking (lmao)


tbh if you have the money id do it cause there arent many dual socket overclocking boards so it would be cool to see how far you could push the cinebench numbers but really, just the e-peen is what you will gain.

you could always get a few more graphics cards and make a lan party VM box for when your mates come over

Sorry for the late reply.

I stopped last night because it was late, i was tired and had to get up early because i had to take a flight to Ireland ( Holiday ) i will be away for 3 weeks, after i come back i will continue.

 

[CAPSLOCKSTUCK]

Bloody hell.........im glad i went to bed last night ................last time i stayed up for 3 weeks it cost me a fortune (but it was a damn good party.)

to take a flight to Ireland

i hope you waved when you flew over my house.

The wife have never been in Ireland, we decided two weeks in Ireland and one week in Scotland.

I have lived in both countries but you know wife is wife.

Thanks, much appreciated, I started a new thread in system builders

what happened to this thread, everybody is sleeping???

what happened to this thread, everybody is sleeping???

i decided to wake up when Knoxx gets home and overclocks his X5690

 

[FilipM]

Same here, but I ran out of sleeping pills...

I came back two weeks earlier from holiday because my wife applied for a Job and they called her.

Now talking about important things.

I have thought that winter was here but Unfortunately it's hot once again, temps and Dew point are too high plus for some reason i believe i should cool the MOSFET's when Overclocking beyond 5.0GHz and voltages 1.70V+
