Set it to 4ghz now. :p You probablly won't even need to add voltage for it to boot.

You have no idea how bad I want to. FYI my cool and quiet is working correctly now. I mean look at this!!!!

I'm getting similar temps. Actually, I'm idling at 4.2ghz at 17c on water. However, I think that there must be a problem with the sensor. I'm just very suspicious of sub-ambient temps unless you are on more extreme cooling.

Honestly I agree. The sub-ambient thing has me also worried. Anyway I just upped the multi to 18.5. She wont do 19.0 on stock voltage. By the way do you know what the default voltage is?

Default on my chip is 1.3v.
 
AMDs temp sensors are known to be not very accurate, especially with lower temperature (can happen to intel also, tho much less frequently)
i had an athlon 64 x2, a 5000+... with my WC, i was able to bring down to -10 degrees... at least the sensors said that... they were about 20 degrees off, because my ambient was about 10c at this point, i benched that night, in winter, and simply opened the windows,to bring down the temps, whilst using a thermometer to determine my ambient.

all in all i could say: you need a temperature sensor, thats mounted into the HS or the bottom of your cooler/block, to get real temperature readings... most Sensors just give out Temperatures "over the thumb"... meaning its well enough for ordinary safety,just to be able to say whether its too hot. but not for real OCing, nor personal confidence;)

just my 2 cents on the most needed, and most worst supported safety feature. the Sensors.
In my Opinion, there should be an array of sensors for each part of the die, each single mosfet, and each ram IC... but... who asks me?:laugh:

P.S.

you cant get under ambient, not with air, not with water. if you want to use conventional methods, you can only use a bong cooler, to get minimal below room temperature... after that, you can only use a chiller, a thermoelectric Element (Peltier) standalone, or a phase change. (LN2 and He2 not to mention, they speak for themselves ;-))
 
It doesnt matter. I cant get over 3.61 anyway. Damn this board. I have to use the EXACT same settings as my 955. I'm convinced that its ether the mobo or RAM thats holding these chips back.

someone said something about a pissing match right? air cooled right now on a V10



and yes that 6 cores not just turbo
 
If I use ROG connect on my crosshair IV I can see for sure that the chip does not Idle at sub ambient on stock cooling or water. The sensors in Core Temp and Everest are reporting ~12 Celsius below actual readings from the bios. That's a 1090t at 4.0Ghz and even at stock the lowest the temps get is around 25. My ambient temperature here is about 20 Celsius at the moment. Either way these chips run really cool but just be aware that core temp reads wrong.
 
got OD to work

pi ram is @1600 cl88824 to explain poor performance playing with new sticks will figure their sweet spot out

My new 1090T idles at 19c and under load only hits 31c! Keep in mind my house is about 25c. After a few more days of testing Ill be OCing this baby and with a max temp of 65c things are lookin up!

If your house is 25, your cpu cannot be idling at 19. lol.

And who cares about temps? If it's not crashing or smoking, it's fine. lol.
 
K10 STAT still works for X6's albiet buggy, the latest version that is, the previous doesnt..

Just Realized, they JUST released a new version of K10 STAT

well i'm out... i don't think my chip boots into windows at 4.3.. lol.. let alone 4.4 or 4.5.. why do i always get shit chips..

that was irony,was it? :laugh:
 
Holy crap! that OC on an ECS board?

Ok behind the scenes you got an Asus CH with ECS label on it right:p

Phase can do wonders under certain circumstances ;-)

Haha the ecs is partially dead that was on my ch3 you know the one with a terrible bios and bugs and such ;)


Ok so I am planning a little contest with prizes going to see if erocker and them ok it and will frontpage or at least stickie it.

Hey now I'm on air for this I will happily video tape me hitting 4.5ghz on air if I need to prove it

how are your temps? :)

Looks like about 55C load temps with a cm v10 and upgraded fans and a 3rd fan forming push/pull on the cpu side of the cooler
 
ok we'll it looks like i'm back to making some progress, switched myr am from the red to the black slots on my m4a79t deluxe which seemed to fix the memory issue with this bios and it's inability to overclock. also i seem to be able to get over 2800nb which is nice.. working my way up with 10-20minute prime tests in between which is seemingly helping as well, linx crashes in like 2 seconds even on stock so i'm not gonna bother with that, i've also crashed this install of windows 7 that half the drivers have stopped working.. i can't even game it's so bad, but stability testing seems to work ok now.

What are your volts at for everything?

And just for you I should be able to pi at 4.6ghz ;) maybe higher depending on tomorrows weather high is in the 30s so we will see.

well the bios for the m4a79t is a bit screwy.. to thepoint where i require k10stat to overclock successfully, as for voltages i'm running 1.5375 for cpu, 1.36 for nb, and 1.98 for mem which is stock for the mushkin 997756 ddr3 1600. basically at those setting right now... perhaps the board is the limitaion here with it's crappy as bios.. we shall see.. If anybody comes up with some info on the bios and where i may find a better one let me know, i could use the help with that lol.

Remember guys these chips have a 1.55v limitation on them. Anything higher and your looking for trouble.
