poll: Highest overclocked amd cpu

[PanteraGSTK]

I wanted to know how high you guys have gotten because I am going to get me a new setup soon whenever I decide what to get. I'll use this in my consideration.

When you post please include what the original cpu speed is. fsb, type of memory, and hsf or cooling.

thanks

Check out the cpu database on the front page. That will at least give you a starting point. The average overclock speed is about the quickest way to tell if a particular chip is a true Thunderbird or just a buzzard on steroids.

Great O/C Randy!! You can cut and paste the screen shot with the alt+print screen and then paste into any photo-viewer program.

[Randy]

TranceBear, this may sound dumb,but how do you post your Sandra screen shot's? I've always used my screen shot program and printed them out then scanned them into MS picture it to crop and resize then save to a disk. There is obviously a better way,
can you enlighten me? Thanks,
Randy

[TranceBear]

What I do is when the Sandra window is open with the info I want I hit alt then print screen. I then open M$ word and paste it into a blank document. I then save it as a HTML and exit. I then open my M$ Picture It and open this file and save it as a JPEG. There may be an easier way, but this works for me.

[PanteraGSTK]

AtomicGuy. What mobo do you have?

[AtomicGuY]

KG7-RAID Beta board, still good thou

its easy to get 10000+rpms with a 80mm fan. Just buy a VERY high quality 80mm case fan, you know the ones you can get for like $7 then moderate the voltage. When you increase the voltage, you force the fan to run faster.
I know, I know, the fan will die wayyy faster but hey, 1 year is pleanty for 10000rpm

benchmarks, me lazzy but, k, I'll see about sandra

[Colin]

Given the news on the Palomino and that no boards are availble yet to read the in die thermistor, wait. This is keeping me from buying a K7G-Raid.

As for my stats:
1333 AYHJA (9), week 23 working hard at 1718 MHz @ 2.1 volts on a KT7A-R. That's 12 *143.
Cooling is with Dual 120 watt pelts with a Danger Den Maze 2.2, Danner Mag 7 and 69" Bong Cooler.

that does sond far out but-actually the board does have 4 slots so he couls have 2gig ram, and with fans that cool at 10K rpmn he could overclock like hell. Yes id like to see some benchmarksl, but hes innocent till proven guilty-thats really not too unbelieveable.

Hey Jason, I am one to accept everybody at face value at first, but this guy...?? If this was his first spectaculor system then maybe, but I just wish he had some benches for such a sweet sounding system. If I had that I would be pasting them all over the place. Heck, I do that now with 1.55ghz!! As we told him a month ago, it is not hard to cut & paste.

[Randy]

Thanks TranceBear, I will try that. I had to search for this topic as I have been gone for a couple of days thats why it took me so long to reply.
Randy

[oc jason]

True i wont believe it till i see benches but i just dont wanna flame either

[Beav]

Hmmmm...the specs on his ram don't add up either, Micron doesn't even have PC2100 CAS2, just CAS2.5. Go look for it on crucial, it don't exist. Coulda been a mistake....but I don't think so. The whole setup is bogus.

[Pitspawn]

You guys are really being unfair on AtomicGUY, especially ppl who are flaming him who shouldn't. I think i've seen his benchmarks before, I remember ppl commenting on such a cool background he had on his desktop. Why is it so hard to believe that a 1.4Ghz chip wont hit 1.84Ghz? Do any of you have a 1.4Ghz chip or seen how far they go?
A few other things I have to say,

1...SK-6 HSFs are the best hsfs on the market IMO atm in time, even the dreaded Swiftech m462 is beaten by pure cooling power. This is especially the case with a larger fan.
2...80mm fans spin at lower rpms than 60mm fans. Even the delta screamer is only like 5-6krpm so a 10000rpm overclock has to output like 100cfm+
3...All chips are made differently, some are usless, some run at their spec speed, some are good overclockers. But very rarely, maybe once in a hundred or thousand do you get a processor with silicon quality far above the rest.

Ok sure, he hasn't put up any benchmarks to proove his speed. But all the benchmarks can be faked anyway so whats the point? Only way we are going to see if his system is for real is to use a dos benchmark program that doesnt use windows timings and produces some sort of certificate that is hack-proof after the benchmarks. Does anyone know of such a thing?

[TranceBear]

Here is the link to his first BS post as far as I know. The screenshot he used here was bogus and all the other crap in his sig. Let's not waste any more time on this guy until he gives us a beleivable system. I am happy for any guy/girl to get an awesome O/C, but there is no need to BS anybody!! AtomicGuy, come on, get with the program.

Thanks for the pic atomicguy. But i'm curios how did you get your fan running at 10k?

[Bubba]

You finally fixed the 4-4 stepping on this one!Good job.I think I was at your web site yesterday(www.fakebenchmarks.bs)

[AtomicGuY]

LOL,
its called a bios update smart guy
Yoo ain't to keen at all, BETA means not finished and that means fixes are nessesary. I just uploaded the newest bios and downloaded wcpuid 3.0c which fixes detection of Athlons over 1.8GHz.

BTW, plenty of you will have seen - here's my Morgan o/c....

[OC-Master]

yo bubba, Me too seen a big difference with my Abit KT7A-RAID with the 133MHz BUS setting, before ZT bios, it read 134.01MHz and then after the bios flashed, it said 133.34MHz. Dont count your chickens before they hatch.

thanx for the warning, message edited...

[wild_andy_c]

And the system is........

EPoX 8KHA
10 x 162Mhz CAS 2.5 3-5-3 "Fast" settings, 4 way interleave
Proto-Morgan (Don't ask how I got it 'cos I'll get nasty)

GF2MX c/w 4.0ns memory at 250Mhz
Fujitsu 8.4Gb HD (just for this net-box)
SB Live
Genius 56k PCI Modem
Windows 2k SP2

Isn't it strange I ain't posting with 2gb of memory and I ain't vain enough to use winMe!!!!

[wild_andy_c]

BTW - using the EPoX 8KHA. Even though it doesn't do more PCI dividers it is more stable overclocking and easier overclocking than even the 8K7A.

It has the best SoftBIOS I have ever seen (and I've seen one or two I'll have you know!!)

[AtomicGuY]

yea, I got sick of having conflicts trying to play EA games on Win2k SP2,
hey, how come you dont have more ram, its like $100 CAN for 256MB DDR

[PanteraGSTK]

Could I see some sandra, wcpuid and 3dmark shots. I just want to see how one of these new ones perform.

[AtomicGuY]

If you get the chance, grab some prototype Micron DDR Ram. Its the fastest ram I've ever seen. They are rated at cas2 PC2100. The 512MB dimms may be a bit harder to get and they are around $300 CAN. thats what I use. Micron all the way. Even in my old 486 lol, I had 32MB of ram.

cos much more than 256mb of ram in a win98 or winme system normally gives worse performance. the os wasn't designed to manage so much ram. win2k and nt can take it though.

[Pitspawn]

Unfortunately you still aren't 100% believable AtomicGUY. All that could be faked, even the actual webcam. Some photoed programs allow you to open a bitmap and display it full screen.

Whats wrong with your benchmarks is that...

I have more RAM, but that's in the 8K7A and NForce reference board doing other jobs (FSB and divider work and dual channel bandwidth work I'm conducting).

Besides, you may say that memory is cheap - try living here in the UK and still hold that statement!!!! It's just a little more expensive to say the least.

yea, I changed the time cause it was an hour behind. Darnit, still forget its not AM but PM. At 8AM in the morning I'm still sleeping! so both should have been 8:55PM!
I never refreshed th wcpuid, sorry

[ExtremeOC]

easiest way is just to set the clock again, and do a new screenshot... that way no-one complains.
I think it's entirely possable, and since i actually live under a innocent until guilty counrty (canada :P the states it's BACKWARDS!)

I would belive it if he used some nitrogen cooling or very chilled water cooling but on a fu**ing air cooling system u cant hit 1.8ghz not possible with the tbird core maybe the palomino will hit 1.8 on air but not the tbird.

Also i have seen alot of his other posts that he is a da*n liar.

Hi AtomicGuy,

Pitty everybody is not believing you. Do a mathmark v2.1 and post the results. If you were BSing it will be easy to pick up, if not it will proof to everybody you're not. Please dont try to use speed cheat, cause mathmark v3 compared (soon to be released) will pick it up.

A 1.4 at 1.84 sounds far fetched so that maybe why people wont believe you. SInce its hard to beat 1.6 with a 1.33 and both are pretty much the same technology.

Good luck. I believe you, as I fail to see the point of people BSing, it only comes back to bite.

[Gibbo205]

Hi there

Interesting, an R on the third line. I have heard they are fantastic overclockers but I have never seen or heard of a week 14 AYHJA.

[Paul -The Mad Hatter]

I don't see how you guys are all harsh on atomic guy but believe wild_andy_c with 0 benckmarks. I believe atomicguy even though he may have lied in the past.

[OC Detective]

Well this is my first post and I have to say what an amusing thread this is!!! Well in my capacity at OC Detective I think I find it necessary to ask 2 questions to AtomicGuy:

1. Why did you change from a DragonOrb to a ThermalRight as you claimed earlier of the Dorb's - and I quote "I highly highly highly recommend the dragonorb to anyone"?
2. You stated that you had your times wrong between the WCPUID and the computer - this was based on your results which showed 7:55 and 8:55 on the 23rd of July yet your earlier posting of results on supposedly the same day had the timings matching (WCPUID at 01:55 and computer at 2:02 a.m.?????) so your timings were originally correct and had nothing to do with timezones as claimed and flamed by someone else?

[Paul -The Mad Hatter]

AtomicGuy: why don't you take a pic of your bios screen at boot up?

[AtomicGuY]

Yea, there was no timezone problems at all, I forgot the fix the time in my bios and this messed everything up. PLus, wcpuid doesnt keep real time but the time at which the processor was detected. So when I hit refresh on the wcpuid, only then would the time change to the time below. It was an hour exactly LOL LOL
never woulda thought it was that close.

As for my perty DragonOrb3, I had to loose it when I moded my 10k 80mm fan with a SK-6. I still recommend the DragonORB3. Very good cooler for your money. There is a secret to the DORB3, when you apply adidtional cooling to it a.k.a a 80mm case fan on your case panel directly blowing onto the orb, youll get 10% better cooling! The wat the orb is designed, the fan runs faster and the rpms go up about 450rpms in the bios

[AtomicGuY]

Timezones, you dont get it still?, people protect articles from flamming and I congrat them for doing it before people get carried away

[OC Detective]

Courtesy of tweak3d.net with a little help from photo editor............... Original is on the Athlon 1400 review.

[AtomicGuY]

That chip was made the same week as mine and appears to be the same code too. But theres one major deference, My chip has a blue surface and that chip appears to be a brownish white surface.

Whether the color matters or not thou, thats an early t-bird1400.

[OC Detective]

Wow similar serial number!!! What are the chances of that! As for colour matching - well that wouldnt be too difficult - even if the original is completely different.

[AtomicGuY]

actually, the serial number on my chip is completly different from the serial on that chip you posted so what are you geting at?

Serial numbers sure look the similar to me - wheres the difference? "RFBDFW10...."

Serial numbers sure look the similar to me - wheres the difference? "RFBDFW10...."

well, to bust ya bubble, mine is

RFBDFW1001A

My production test was a prototype, his wasnt, thats the biggest difference. I have a 2 2 steping for some reason, they didnt implement 4 4 steping in the prototype. WCPUID has a workaround which properly detects the processor finally. It uses the same method as the AthlonMP detection now!

[SteenkyBastage]

uhhh...is there a different version of p95 i dont know about? i run 1.2ghz un-oced and it takes me 2.3 to 2.6 seconds per calculation...yet yours is taking 13 to 14 seconds?

even running other programs it doesnt go up much...you're only using sysmon and wcpuid...and those dont eat up much cpu load.

I really did not want this to turn into a flame war. All I wanted people to do is post scores. Not read someone elses post and try to tell everyone how much crap it is. Please just post what was asked.

If they are from the same week of manufacture how can yours be a prototype (which you purchased from Best Computers in Canada) and the other not be? Also your picture of your chip does not show the last 2 digits.

No it's a "R "A" prototype model.

Anyhow, I'm using the Thermalright SK-6 with a 150mm modded fan,

I got all the bells and whistles to keep the CPU cool, 19 case fans, 1 kwatt PSUs (TWIN POWER). I got the fan to stick to the SK-6 with the help of a copper piece of metal which I bent into the fins of the HS. The fan spins at 8055rpms! The fan uses an external power hookup which I simply plug into da wall (powerpack).

Current temperature on my system,
49c CPU MAX, 30c IDLE
24c MBoard MAX
