Xeon Owners Club

Not at all, if i burned i buy a new one.
Fair enough. Seems wasteful to me, but it's your property and likely all in good fun. I care about mine a bit more. It's lasted a number of years and still does much more than is needed of it most of the time. Want it to last a few years longer still.

Just got it today. Very crude testing. I'm waiting for a proper cooler and ram...looks promising though.
 
i see idle clocks... where are you at?

I put this project on hold for a few days till I get a proper cooler. Ordering one tonight. Dark rock 3 pro looks good.

I made a makeshift fan against a big ass heatsink from an old dell hence "crude".

Did get up to 4.2 something but temps would go up rather quickly.
 
Sooooooooooooooooooooo to be clear and answer what was asked, that pic above was 4.2 GHz? :)

As you said before and i guess so those are idle, maybe he forgot to post the 4.2GHz screenshot?

Oh,That pic was default/auto settings which was at 4.0. The board would idle and turbo a lot 1600-4000.
I didnt take a pic of 4.2. Ill take some pics in a few days...I really want to try cinebench.
 
Did blender 2.78c benches with bmw27 and classroom, dual xeon e5-2686 v3 hacked (released in 2014) seems to anahilate 7980xe and threadripper while giving half the render times

I toredown my phenom and swapped ram and cooler. Does this look right to you guys ?

For that voltage and clock speed temps are a bit high, but I guess that is Air cooled

I think hwmonitor is giving false readings. This seems right.

Thermal paste has to cure a bit too...
 
Weird but Max temps doesn't match.
I wanted to see if I could boot into my ssd and it worked didnt have to reinstall windows 8.1. Fkn windows 10 was acting wonky it seems.
