Why is this so important, and why do i have two posts reserved? ACC Testing, to the max. I have been doing some ACC research with my 940BE, and the only way I can finally finish the testing is by using the 550 BE to enable 1 and 2 cores. These tests will fully utilize the +/- 12 on all cores. Each core will go through its own testing.

Areas I will be focusing on:

I will be using Wprime 1024, and 32M, and SuperPI 1M to test for any speed ups or slow downs with the cores. What do I mean by this? Simple, an overclock with multiple cores does not give each core a 100% of what its entitled to (ie Voltage). This can cause a core to slow down or speed up. Using ACC you can make a core go up or down slightly in speed. This will re-align the cores so that they process data at the rate they are suppose to. Using Wprime 1024 as my main tool for these tests I can watch and see if any of the cores do go up and down. I will also be learning how to correctly unlock these cores and to see how far I can push them. I have 32L of LN2 coming in soon. Anyone want to guess what might happen after it arrives?

Sit tight, relax and enjoy, this will be a long series of tests that will be taking more than a couple weeks. Any knowledge or tips about ACC is always appreciated!

NOTES:

0924BPMW Did not work on my M3A79-T Deluxe BIOS 1203

Results:

System Setup:
940BE and 550BE Phenom II
M3A79T-Deluxe BIOS 1203
4870 Asus Matrix Cat 9.7
Windows XP 32bit SP3 (fully updated)

Here are some teaser picks. This is the 940BE with full -12 to ACC.

Sorry it was a quick chop. I've been working hard with the 550BE. Damn thing doesn't like the "Unleashed Mode" keeps saying I failed.

Dolk · 10-02-09, 11:56 AM

Quick Update, my 550BE did not want to unlock so I'm sending back for a new one. Postponed till further noticed.

Bobnova · 10-02-09, 12:09 PM

I'll be interested to see how many CPUs you go through before one unlocks, get some definitive testing on unlock percentages

And the ACC results too, of course.

mxthunder · 10-02-09, 12:15 PM

Where did you get it from? Wonder if they are ****ed because of all the returned CPU's because they didnt unlock?

Can't be talking about urination, it's the law :P

I bet that as time has gone by the percentage of unlockable cpus in stock has gone down as people have been returning non-unlockables.
My dad's 810 can unlock the last 2mb of L3 just fine, but it still kills the temp sensors which i don't like.

Dolk · 10-02-09, 12:40 PM

I ordered from newegg. I believe that in those percentages. But I'm also pretty lucky man. I got the RMA approved, CPU will be shipped out to them soon, don't know when I'll get my replacement.
