my chip will run without a heatsink :D

overclocked to 1.944GHz 1.16V

just got a p4 heatspreader on it

did 41sec superpi 1M

load temp 52C

pretty nice chip aye

Definately a nice chip, but you take risks that you may regret in the near future

**wwwww** · 08-19-2005, 02:33 AM

I did it slowly up from 600MHz 0.7V. :P

**eBoy0** · 08-19-2005, 02:40 AM

Must throttle nicely

**wwwww** · 08-19-2005, 03:02 AM

nup

load temp around 52C

did 41 seconds in superPI (see picture)

/me gives wwwww a cookie (;

**zxlr8** · 08-19-2005, 01:25 PM

That is awesome. Dothans are sweet. Mine is now stable at 2.6 24/7. Yeah me...

**wwwww** · 08-19-2005, 11:57 PM

this chip'll do 2.66 @ 1.58V - doesn't go a single MHz more even with 1.7V - the 715 B1 in my laptop does 2.4 @ 1.2V but won't go a single MHz more no matter how much voltage - they just seem to have a limit...

*eats cookie*

You are right. It is wierd for sure. I am beginning to think it has a lot more to do with cooling now though. Mine sits and idles at around 41. I seem to think higher speed chips like 770s and 780s actually will overclock better. Who knows? It is all just a crapshoot anyways. I just wanted a good gaming machine and that is what I got. I guess I should be happy...

yeah, my chip does 2.66 on air or water @ 1.58V to 1.7V but once I send it to sub zeroes I can bench at 2.78GHz.

**zxlr8** · 08-20-2005, 08:27 AM

I just need to buy yo ssaya's chip. That thing is incredible, He had almost 3 ghz on cold air. If you get the right chip, you can soar. Right now my best in superpi is 28 with everything running. The best I am able to get with my San Diego with everything running is 30. It is pretty quick.

**wwwww** · 08-20-2005, 09:08 AM

I remeber there was some guy who got 2.95 on stock volts with a B1...hold on..leme look it up

cant find it

there used to be a thread here with all these people's dothans and how far they got them

kyosen and the stilt got 2.913 and 2.95 respectively - just checking the vcore

1.427 for the 2.95

**zxlr8** · 08-20-2005, 09:42 AM

YOu are right. That one with the high clocks on the b1 is incredible.

**dqniel** · 08-20-2005, 11:47 AM

mmmm, passive 41sec superpi

not just passive - passive I can go to the low 30s. It's got no cooling ('cept a p4 heatspreader).

Mind you that 52C is a bit low - it's too hot to touch - the bios reads too low, it reckons the chip idles below ambient...

**~~IamAnoobieCheez~~** · 08-20-2005, 05:37 PM

can you run it without the heat spreader? or better put, absolutely nothing on the core running naked. Have you tried it?

I wonder if the chip will survive if you underclock it to minimal. The old P3 chips survive running at default speed without heatsinks.

yes it does 1.2GHz 0.9V without the heatspreader but that's already getting too hot for my liking. it's wierd that little 2x2cm plate makes soo much difference.

that's impressive... This is why I like Intel chips. ya know if you do that on AMD chips and watch them burn instantly.

yeah those little heatspreaders work good.. ya know those heatspreaders for the old graphics cards GPU do wonders without the heatsink.

yeah - *remembers his voodoo 2*

Amd K8s aren't bad in regards to that. I started my a64 2800+ @ 1.7V 2.56GHz with my pump off and it worked for like 15 minutes idle then bsod (p4s will shutdown when it gets too hot - they just keep going til they error).

But it refused to start up until I turned my pump on and when I did it was working perfectly (and a bubble on my finger for the next few days states it was hot :P).

But yeh, I think most of us have fried (or crushed the core) our share of K7s :P.

That little thing to the right of the chipset cooler

critical arrow from dev'h?
