Had a little time to to play with some clocks, set the stix to stock and am working on max benchable clocks
Think it has a bit more in it, just stepping it up slowly, It got to wet to continue so will keep going tommorow if I am dried out enough

SO nice WD! Keep at it!!! Am sure there's more there

Tried another e6xxx...another one with a cold bug. Is that pretty common with the e6xxx c2d's?

Wrapped up the e4700. pcm gave me trouble but am a little short on time so moving on. I'm decent at wprime but horrendous at pifast and spi :/

Just to keep things in perspective...compare my raging 2.66 cinebench 11.5 sub vs WD's shrimpy 23.18 pffft ;P~ hehe

Nice job bro, those 775 chips have been doing good for you

Keep on grinding out that hardware

Did a little more today
If I could only bench at this speed

Thanks man! Yeah...fun socket and am slowly getting the hang of it. Have the z97 all insulated...hoping the g3258 gets here this week. Until then it's banging more 775's.

Wow...now that's a nice sub!

 

[Witchdoctor]

Hey , got your package, tina put it out and the garage and I did not even know it came until today,

She just siad she figured it was more computer crap ......

Thanks so much

Your are going to have a blast with the z97 platform. 6GHz will be huge for older 3D

Had a lot of fun this weekend trying to get the feel of this new set up , got plenty of juice

 

[funsoul]

She was right! hehe Give me a call when you get around to trying the stuff.

Definitely psyched for the new platform. Will hopefully nab some globals (I need to work in that area). New setup and some 3d's will help break up the 775 grinding a bit.

Met up with BMWBaxter this morning and picked up the rest of his cold gear. Now I've got the CPU pot, GPU pot all kinds of stuff but the main event is this

 

[Witchdoctor]

That's awesome ....

Good times

 

[Johan45]

That's awesome ....

Good times

Got my fingers crossed. Hopefully within a couple weeks I can get something going.

 

[QuickFast]

Johan can't wait to see what you start throwing down your going to be a beast on LN2 its on like donkey kong I am excited for you Brother

 

[Johan45]

Thanks Quickie, I am just a bit excited. Just have to make sure I'm water tight this time. Gonna start with some 775 stuff and give Funsouls old Q6660 a run for his money.

Congrats on the new gear! Man I wish my dewar had one of those fancy dispensers.

Looking good!

 

[Johan45]

Apparently it doesn't work correctly . I've had it out and no obstructions in it so I might have to mess with it a bit.

 

[Witchdoctor]

Only fill it to a little below the drop tube, it needs some area to build prussure form evapration

 

[Johan45]

Only has one tube that goes almost to the bottom of the dewar.

 

[Witchdoctor]

I mean the main throat that drops down in , fill to just below that 1/2 to 1"

 

[Johan45]

Thanks witchy, there's really only one way to find out. Possible that the seal won't hold enough pressure to force it out. It's basically just a rubber stopper.

 

[Witchdoctor]

hmmm that is a little different than mine than, it has like a clamp on it ?

If I fill it to high it doe not build pressure ?

if the springs are the tension that seals it possibly srtonger springs would help

 

[Johan45]

Ya now that looks like a seal. I assume the springs are also there as a relief system to relieve pressure if it gets too high for what ever reasons. I'l have to fill it at some point to see how it behaves and go from there. The springs still had some good tension so we just wait and see. Probably a couple weeks away at this point.

 

[xsuperbgx]

It should only need a few psi to push out liquid. So as long as the rubber is fairly smooth and able to seal, it should be ok.
