Phenom 9950 overclocking

3dsage · Mar 8, 2009

Yeah I just saw a couple other sites showing between 75-100 watt draw only . Toms is FOS.

Well either way, once tax check comes in i'm getting a 4830, so I can have a full fledged dragon

I guess i'll be struck with this PSU.

time to bring this thread back alive.

Newegg effin' rocks guys :rockout:

board back from RMA already, new board. Shipping, them receiving, and shipping back only took like 4 or 5 business days. It was awesome.

Chicken Patty · Mar 13, 2009

Ok guys, system is back up and running. Now tomorrow i'll try to do some runs on factory HS, until I can get around to ordering a pump, res, and tubing

what happened to your board? :ohwell:

you can't seem to keep a working board for long can you? :eek:

3dsage · Mar 13, 2009

It crapped on him, a few days after he got it.

Exactly what 3dsage said. got it, used it for like 3 or 4 days and it just wouldn't post. Beats me. This one so far so good after one day.

after all the talk from everyone about DFI's I had to try one out. I'll tell you though, I can clock on air with the DFI what I used to do on water with the M3A79-T. That tells you something about DFI :rockout:

Fastest non-crossfire HD4850/Agena rig @ Futuremark ORB??

http://orb.futuremark.com/compare?3dm06=10019517

At least the next higher result had the Canyon Flight almost 100fps, so I assume thats done with crossfire.

One thing I :banghead:

:ed, no screenies with CPU-Z or GPU-Z... I don't remember exactly the clocks on the card but they should be somewhere around 740-750 / 1120-1180

Yeah I've read that around also. I'll give it a shot.

I know Meizuman got his to run 3.5 with the same board. Except he was on the F2 bios and i'm on f3h.

I hate flashing bioses, I bricked a board before and I dont want to risk it.

I tell ya, that 3.5 was pure luck! I don't know if the chip has taken its highs already, it really seems to be so. Nowadays it likes to sit well under the 3.4 mark and I don't push it anymore. In the past I was able to run few benches with all cores @ 3.5, highest CPU-Z was 3.6 ON AIR.

I really can't remember anymore but I think the max cpu-z was on some of the f3's, maybe my post about it is somewhere on this thread

Meizuman · Mar 14, 2009

This doesn't go by the rules, but I haven't been much active lately, so here goes:

Probably teh highest stable OC, no way Im going to drop NB to gain any CPU speed...

PS: notice the red circle.

p_o_s_pc · Mar 14, 2009

what is the red circle?also is it a 65nm or a 45nm chip?

HHmmM... Id bet.... :wtf:

.... 65nm? what ya think?....and..... red circle means FAST hey? i love how low Meiz gets the core to run 1.27v :wtf:

..... how did ya burn in the cpu? And how long? :confused:

Meizuman · Mar 14, 2009

My Vcore is 1.4! CPU VID is default because GBT can't change it. Sorry that there isn't cpu-z screen on that.

Red circle = AMD Boost

Agena = 65nm = Phenom I

3dsage · Mar 14, 2009

@Meizuman, I think you have special chip in your hands dude. You got lucky with it.

Yeah AMD boost really does increase performance nicely.
I notice AMD Fusion activates it when you turn it on.

you can run your customer profile and disable that. Sometimes the temps go up really high. I dont really like amd boost, only good for super pi, sometimes the scores in 3dmark are better, but not always.

King_Jay16 · Mar 14, 2009

yea boost nt that really helpful, mostly raises ur temps fa a lil performance, i turned off cpu tweak in my bios dropped temps 3C

i drop like 10ºc its ridiculous :laugh:

3dsage · Mar 14, 2009

Yeah I know its like a Heat button, I meant performance with benching and Decrypting movies, speeds things up a bit.

Chicken Patty · Mar 14, 2009

well dudes, I got a 4850 1GB today for my AMD rig. Im doing some before and after. i'll be posting the results soon. Going to shut down now and install the video card

You have some nice Goodies Bro :toast:

thanks bro, now just need to order the pump and the res for the rig and put it under water

BTW, no difference with using on board or not, weird heh?

What do you mean?

BTW I just got my 720BE from the local TigerDirect :rockout:

Its a 0904DPCW, and a couple a guys on XS have this batch running on the DS4H at 3.5GHZ on all 4 cores.
Wish me luck

I dont get wat AMD was thinking with the flimsy aluminum foil HS it came with though :laugh:

What I meant was that I got the same performance results using on board, than using the 4850 :confused:

Good luck with the new CPU. Keep us posted with your results :toast:
