Have let the team down :(
My main rig has gone down again with a pair of dead corsair dominator 8500's.
Second time that i have lost the memory using this motherboard so hopefuly this time it will get swapped out along with the memory.

I may even get me a Q6600 while i am there.
Lets see if it will do 3200+ per core. Bring on the rapid climb in RAC.

On the downside will probably take a week and half to get it all sorted out.

Just hope you didn't lose anything else when it crashed...

Are you sure you're not overclocking it a bit too far ??

(Ditto on the Q6600's - Novatech are doing them at £146+VAT each - see the thread here: http://forum.ukboincteam.com/viewtopic.php?t=2787 so I might be interested as well....

Ram was a little undercloscked running on a devider as I recall.
On auto the board sets the ram at the right voltage but then runs a slight over volt on it. So set this manual.
Other than that it has been running fine DOH!
Have just had RMA email from them, but will need to confirm if they are looking at swapping out the board also.
Think i will go with one of these http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/ProductI ... tID=591501
Couple of bits to sell to fund the upgrade to quad.
My contract has just finished on my phone, so i have a N95 on the way, so i can get my K800 on ebay.
So hopefully the sale of my E6400 should cover the rest of the cost.

Then the fun begins again trying to get it upto 3400.
But tbh will be more than happy with 3200.

At last!
Back up and running again at 3.6 per core, still only dual though.
Quad 6600 G0 not looking like its going to be around until 28th, but so far i have seen them 3.8 on air.
So luck being with me i will get that on water, just have to wait and see how good it is when it gets here.
Mind you i think a new motherboard is the only way i will get that.

My 12th place has slipped away and looks like 14th is where i will be in a few days time

Just need to figure out a way of upgrading the kids rig to this one and getting the quad as mine.
If i can do that than i should be seeing 6k+ a day.
What else can i sell.......

The asus commando i am on at the moment was one of the first to ship, its got noisey coils and appears to be killing ram.
The kids rig with the a8n32-sli (939) board was good from the off.
Prior to that i had a DFI lanparty nforce 2 jobbie on a refrigeration unit (promi) while it was very hard to get it set up, stable and bios flashed it was very fast.
And before that all ABIT. Which i think is where i might look this time around.
If your wanting a quad then make sure you get a P35 chipset.

Another great link - thanks.

Looks like the afore-mentioned GA-P35C-DS3R does pretty well in this test...

And it's future proofed in terms of being able to use either DDR2 (now) or DDR3 (later)...

These mobo's seem to be less than £100 each as well....

Hmmm.....wonder how many I can get for the wonga I've got....?

Think I've got about £500 "spare", so that 2 PC's (2x Quad CPU + mobo's, + DDR2 RAM) I can upgrade

Hi johnr.
Will you be overclocking at all?
Q6600 I am guessing.

UBT - JohnR · Post by **UBT - JohnR** » Sun Aug 19, 2007 10:57 am

Yes overclocking using the stock cooler for now. The processors are E2140 for £43 which is the one my friend wanted. People have them up to 2.7 or even 3.0 on stock coolers. I will upgrade mine I think to a quad 45nm next year when the new cpu’s are out, but for now if it runs a little hot when crunching I’m not worried with such a cheap cpu. :twisted:

I'm trying to figure how they can sell them that cheap....maybe it's the swings and roundabouts approach.

Isn't the new Intel price (for 1000 pieces) approx $266 = GBP 133 (ex VAT) each?

So, yours cost GBP 112 (maybe inc VAT)....and they sold 15 of them in one go....that's a GBP 300 quid loss at least....

Hope KAM don't go bust before they can supply these...!

I don't think there's a lot in it (between the B3 and G0) - maybe up to 6% advantage on the G0. But worth getting the G0, if you can of course as the improvement is effectively free....

In crunching terms, a quad at 2.4GHz will do your RAC far more good than a dual at 2.13GHz, no matter how much either is overclocked.

Four cores are better than two... 8)

Hi

Yup - from my point of view, I'd love to be able to claim back the VAT as it would be a proper business expense...and as I'm VAT registered, then "every little helps".

Of course, they could be selling these through an off-shore trading account, such as Channel islands, in which case, they aren't charging VAT, but which means buyers might be liable for VAT from Customs & Excise, if they check the package.

Or they just might not be charging the VAT element, in which case Mr Tax Inspector will be frowning on them...as he'll want his 17½%...!

50 Is ok. but doesn't leave much room for more.
http://www.frostytech.com/articleview.c ... 144&page=5
for a review and comparision charts on it.
I am right on the edge of stable atm with my setup.
see sig plus there is a single black ice extreme rad with push pull 120mm thunderblade fans and there is a dual bay res in the loop aswell.
Ambient temps are 26/27 atm and asus prob is reporting anywhere from 55-59 at that.
There 4 120mm and 1 140mm fan cooling it all off, m/b temp is 32.
If i run up core temp that tells me that I am between 64-69, which is to hot for my liking.

My asus commando badly undervolts the cpu stick 1.5 in and under load it gets 1.4, huge drop which does not help any, check to see if your voltage is stable.

I take it your not pushing them memory to far and running a devider, also worth noting mine seems to do much better with the 8 x multiplier.
I am running 8x425.

Try those see how it goes.

Back upto 3160 now.
Have downloaded a programme called TAT (intel thermal analysis tool).
That has to give pretty close readings you would have thought.
At that speed it is showing between 60 - 63 on the cores and 66 / 63 on each cpu. (quad is basicaly 2 c2d's stuck on the same cpu)
75 is about the limit for running these before they start thermal throttling.

Best start looking for another rad me thinks.
May have to go with a 2 x 120mm and the current one at the same time.

At the risk of sounding totally stupid, may I ask a totally stupid question?

Could the whole tower be placed inside a small refrigeration unit? (All right, a small fridge!) The necessary cables could run through rubber grommets to keep the chill inside. I've even remembered the CD/DVD drive, an external unit, so you don't have to keep opening the refrigeration unit front hatch (fridge door!)

Could this be done? :)

Most PC components give off heat, so being put in a chilled atmosphere will help these items stay cool.

EXCEPT:

Some items rely on being at room temperature, else they stop moving (CD/DVD mech, esp. if it uses lubricated guide rails to move the RAYFOC assembly).

Also, there's the question of humidity....inside a fridge, you get moisture....so, if things start getting iced up (at worst), then there might be issues in terms of electrical shorts.

Of course there are instances, where PCs are used at lower than average temperatures...but I think you're talking about considerably less....!

A better way, might be a more efficient heat exchanger or even a mini-air conditioner, that generates cool dry air that you could "pump" into the inside the PC case....

I've even thought about strapping on a large flexible tube to the outside of my PC cases, so as to direct the warm air outside, rather than warming up the office...but need to consider putting in some low-resistance non-return "flaps" so as to prevent the warm air (from one PC) being forced back into the air outlet of another one...!

I've read about 'vapochill' and the like in some gamer mags, surely you have to reach the stage where 'a bigger fan' just won't do it!

You need liquid cooling! But then you have to start cutting bits out of your tower (modders!) I don't know if this is for me!

Is there any overclocking us amateurs can do, without adding more cooling systems? (I know a lot depends on your mobo and chip, but just give us a little clue!)

If your not into dry ice or liquid nitrogen (I kid you not) then have a look in this forum. http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/
Remember you can damage your computer so first follow links for the test software and ways to check cpu and motherboard temperatures. See if you can find a section on your motherboard and see if you have the best bios update.
Take it slow and easy, and remember when you start the first thing to do is underclock your memory.

The problem with std cases is they are crap at keeping things cool, if you want to overclock only a small amount, then you are going to have to get rid of extra heat or you will just get problems.

So you could try what I do,

requires a bit of messing with a drill though

Fit a 80mm fan to the side of your case in line with your cpu and use a piece of plastic drain pipe the diameter of the fan (75mm pipe will do) and cut to length so that when you put the side of the case on, the end of the pipe will be just above your cpu fan/heatsink (I mean about 2-5mm gap, smaller the better), stick the drain pipe to the fan with chemical metal or silicone sealant.

also fit a fan to the rear of your case to extract hot air.

another tip is to have the same area of fans for inlet and outlet, i.e if you have 2x80mm inlet fans then you will need 2x80mm outlet fans

I have also got a 80mm fan/tube thing over my memory cooling fans and one fan mounted inside the front of the case blowing over my twin Raptor HD's.

you can't see the tubes on this pic but you can get a better idea

currently running AMD X2 4400 with 2Gb Corsair XMS (400Mhz 2-2-2-5-1T) with no overclocking yet, only had this chip 3 weeks, letting it settle in before I turn up the FSB, anyways with full CPDN crunch on both processors I get temps of 35C on CPU , 31C on Mem, 28C on HD's , 29C on Mboard chipset, with a room temp of 23C all fans run at an average speed of 2200-2500 rpm. :confused2:

jaysback · Post by **jaysback** » Tue Sep 11, 2007 10:55 pm

Just had a small bash at overclocking my quad.
Currently at 3330 with full load temps that top out @ 61c (using Intel tat software).
I must say that it was well easy on this board, had real trouble with the commando and the quad.
9 x multi was a mare and ended up using the 8 x multi with a higher fsb.
So far I am very impressed with this board seeing as it was £78 and the chip only set me back £130.

Case wise I have a antec P160 front, rear and side 120mm(blowing on N/B / ram / CPU socket) all intake at full speed.
3 x 120mm mounted on the tripple rad at the top on a fanbus extracting along with the psu 140mm and the small amount the gpu fan pulls out.

The tripple rad seems to have helped with the water temps much more than I thought it would.
Before the resivoir was warm to the touch where as now its slightly over ambient.

Will try and work out how to post some pics up on here.

P.S. have started a thread on on pics of your rigs, not taken off like I thought it would.

Any ideas on making it work at all?

Hmmm....you are of course right....holding off until then is a bit of a concern, and these new CPUs are likely to be quite expensive with all that L2 cache. I just need to find out if the Q9x CPUs will work on the P35 class mobo's, coz then I can get the mobo's, and Q6600's for now and then upgrade to the Q9x series when they drop in price a bit.

As for the piccy thread.....it's either coz people aren't interested....or they cannot find somewhere to post the piccys, so they can link to them from the forum...

So, I'll offer to host the piccys, if they are emailed to me.....and then I can build up a "Team server farm" page on the UBT website....!

regards

Tim
