Conroe 2.4Ghz on 965G mobo, brief test...

[dpa]

any clocking possible on the card? a 3Ghz run would be awesome, way to go Victor!

[savantu]

Yeah, I wouldn’t jump the gun on AMD or make those nasty remarks.
Hell, Intel owes it to AMD. If it wasn’t for AMD, you all would be sweating 60 pipelines P5,6,7 or P8 for another 2-3 years. I mean sweating.

We know what AMD will have this year :

X2 5000+ 2.6/512KB
X2 5200+ 2.6/1MB ( Q4 )
FX 62 2.8/1MB

Which one will beat the 315$ Conroe 2.4GHz ? Should I even mention the 530$ Conroe 2.66GHz ?

You can go here and compare prices :

Btw , long pipelines are the future.Even if short pipeline rule now , all studies made have shown ideal pipeline length should be around 30+ ( Intel ) and ~50 ( IBM ).Problem is if process and transistors evolution will be fast enough to allow a improved Netburst to make a comeback...

I'm shocked by Conroe, just 2.4Ghz with 256m*2 DDR2_533 4-4-4-12 can break 21s.
AMD ... all dead, and maybe the same words to Yonah

Let's waiting for Conroe/Meroms and more great 975x mobos with good OC features.

Time for us to break into 10sec now.

Victor - any chance you can run a lower multi - so we can compare Conroe VS Merom @ 2.0GHZ

TY

[Merkor]

hey everybody , I've just try to make it run on ASUS P5WD2-P (955x)
but failed.

Does it make a beep or completely nothing? BIOS version?

[Getttosmurf]

Damn thats fast ! thanks for sharing your results.
cant wait to see what amd will do next

absolutely.............. don`t forget :


stock merom @2,0 .......25 sec PI
stock conroe @2,4....... 21,4sec PI

[comrad]

Wow... That is insane. I guess I am waiting till these to come out...

[gillll]

just noticed ........ but no x86-64 extenstions ?

is that a new policy ? to make microsoft choose ? x86-64 or em64t ?

[mascaras]

It makes no sense to compare something that isn't here yet or something that is still an illsion, at this point that's what am2 is...

i think not even AM2 will get this results


and AM2 prices already out:

Pricing and availability for AMD's desktop AM2 offerings


We have received some rather interesting info on AMD's new range of Socket AM2 processors. According to internal AMD documents, system builders will be able to purchase the new AM2 processor starting on May 15th. Dual core and single core Athlon 64 processors will be available as well as 64-bit Sempron processors.


According to our previously published roadmaps, AMD's Athlon 64 FX-62 will be the company's top desktop offering for the remainder of the year. It is not until Q1 of 2007 that we will see the FX-64 hit the market. All other AM2 processors are officially under embargo until June 6, 2006.



The SSBP above denotes the Suggested System Builder Price. Actual manufacturer purchase prices are approximately 10% less. And of course, you can be sure those new CPUs will come with heatpipe coolers and new packaging. AMD insiders have confirmed to us that AM2 motherboards will be shipping for several weeks before the launch to assure widespread availability at launch.

Conros is prolly better now because of bandwith but when merom gets a good board then it should do a little better than conroe

[mursaat]

Definitely I won't buy another 165 to see if it gets to 2.9 or 3ghz

BTW someone around has a 2.4 DC Opty superpi time to compare the gap? My 165 at 2600 does 30.5s with tweaked memory @ 260mhz RAM 2-2-2-5 yes I know it's a different generation but that doesn't hurt the fact that's the increase we're going to feel when going DC Opty -> Conroe.

sorry mike, the bios now have no oc fucntion.
and not software can support 965G chipset.

I think, their performance must be close to each other, just different socket and deafult_fsb.

[StyM]

nice job...
how about at 32m??

[NiCKE^]

Tried any 32M when you were at it Victor?

[2fink]

wow nice CPU.
Someone knows about the definitive name of Conroe ?

intelinator?

[njkid32]

Guys as Ryder already asked please keep this thread ontopic and not turn it into an Intel AMD battle. I am sure Victor doesnt like that his thread turned into a war. Thanks!!

[Nazu]

So Fugger still has problems with the mobo? 21s and 2.4GHz, thats quite amazing

[VictorWang]

Tried any 32M when you were at it Victor?

wait , I'm trying to plug my 78gtx 512m to see it's 3D performance.

will try pi_32m and more test later.

[Absolute_0]

Yeah i was curious as well, what are the temps like, idle and load, and what cooling? 65nm and 1.2v it should run very cool!

[nCrusader]

wait , I'm trying to plug my 78gtx 512m to see it's 3D performance.

will try pi_32m and more test later.

Please try out 3DMark05, we know that Intel are strong already in 03 and 06.

[StixxX]

Can't wait.

[shuRe]

good to see we will have some 3d benches, would be no good to most regular users if it could pull 21s @ 1M but not top an a64 at 3d. (pressuming it will beat an a64, but results might not be as exciting as superPI results)

[crotale]

Congrats to the results Victor!

As many other people are requesting, can you please run some more benchmarks at that speed, preferable multi-threaded benchmarks, as well as 3DMark.

[Pirated]

Oh!
My Holy gosh...
The super saiyan proc ever i see.

Lemme test that one here..

[PMAer]

All i can say is.. Amazing :O

I wonder if this would be a good move for intel.. Since all their procs (single or dual) priced above $300 would become obselete just like that.. :P
