To anyone who's wondering about the above screenshot, the was a typo in the program (fixed and updated now), it reported X2 4200+ as JH9-E4 when it should've been BH9-E4.
 
Update: Redid the program and now it has a UI, so check the new one out.

Here is my X2 3800... Are these results correct?

Nevermind fixed..

You know, it might help to post your max stable speed in addition to these results...

What EXACTLY is this prog measuring? Is it just reading a value encoded in the CPUID or is it actually testing something?

I'll run this on my Toledo once I'm done lapping my proc.

The_Coolest has something "cool" planned to test this in a more organized fashion. This is just preliminary stuff. He is going to be gone for a few days though.

EDIT - As I understand it this is a value taken straight out of the CPU. It's interesting because its like AMD saying how robust they think the core is. If you look at the numbers of people with Venices' rated for over 60C here and at XS, there is what seems to be a clear difference in overclocking potential. Fun stuff :cool:

tHIS IS at 2.83 ghz :O! idk if that makes a difference :D
 
CPUID: 20F32

57C
(and if it goes above that it becomes unstable that's for sure!)

Could you give the link to the info at XS? What exactly is the relationship between this "max case temp" and overclocking headroom? The higher the max temp, the better the overclock?
