Bumped me out of the top 25

A Guy

That is some real tough luck Bill, and just before the new year for you! I feel your pain

I'll manage somehow...it just hurts...



Not even running an overclock now, shhhhh

A Guy

No overclock! How very dare you! But don't worry I will keep it to myself

 

[essenbe]

That's un American Bill. Start the New Year off right. Get back in the top 25. Happy new year to you and to everyone. well, in about 5 hours and 30 minutes where I live. Some of you are already there.

thanks everyone! its my first OC and i think it went well. here's hoping for many more to come!

Yes indeed. Bear in mind that all the top speeds in the leaderboard are what we like to call "suicide runs" the PC is stable long enough just to validate the speed at that is that. For regular 24/7 overclocks most of us at the top run around the same speed as you.

OH!! wow i had no idea. i thought it was stable OC's hahaha!. i was tweaking voltages last night and running prime getting my rig solid LoL. it makes sense now. my jaw dropped when i first saw those 5.5 numbers up at the top of the board.

Yeah this thread is for the absolute most you can get out of your CPU by any means necessary, the post your overclock thread is for stable overclocks

Yeah good luck, also I think it's worth mentioning that most if not all the top scores were done using software once in Windows, speaking for myself there is no way I could boot to Windows at 5.5GHz, I used Asus AI Suite to set the speed and voltage, applied it and hoped to high hell I could validate before the PC crashed lol.

If you remember I was getting random freezes and had to hard restart. Going back to stock clocks fixed it. As much as I'd like to get my ram back to 1600Mhz, etc. I'd much rather have a stable PC. A Guy

NoN, you and Bill must have posted at the same time, or nearly so.

[paulpicks21]

i7 4790 in the list of updates. Sounds interesting!

 

[Britton30]

Yeah, now all we need are Haswell refresh boards. Or am I behind the times again?

 

[essenbe]

What is Haswell refresh, Gary?

Here is some info on Haswell refresh

Paul and I posted almost at the same time, at least we had different links

 

[essenbe]

So, we're talking about something in the future? Where's Doc Brown, I bet he can tell us how it will work out. and the prices too. We may even get him to tell us about the price and performance of the Nvidia 800s. Somebody look him up. Inquiring minds want to know.

 

[Britton30]

They're missing the main point, the voltage regulator is being put back on the mobo instead of on the CPU die with the refresh.

Hi wonder guys

Please suggest something to this guy?
