having fun with Prescott
 
looks like I have a winner :grin:
done with SLK800 with no name fan @ 12v

Gamer 30th May 2004 13:45

and it's running hot :)

Gamer 30th May 2004 13:49

time to bring out the Prometeia :)

if this would be bootable in windows, I might keep this one.

The Senile Doctor 30th May 2004 13:49

how high does it take windows? and primestability?
slap on the sp97 with a 92mm!

it's a 3.0? did you ditch the northy 3.0?
73 degrees is...whoohhaaaaaaoooooott

maybe 4.5 with a prommy...
however, it still won't beat a 2.7 ghz a64 :(

Gamer 30th May 2004 13:52

no HDD attached, so can't try it out.
next week.

SP94 has already a 92mm fan on it, but it's mounted on my Northwood :)

The Senile Doctor 30th May 2004 13:53

you kept both, I see.

Gamer 30th May 2004 13:54

yep, wanted to sell this Prescott, but I'm going to play with it first :)

would a reinstall be needed if I change the P4C800 to IC7-Max3 ?
you did that already no ?

jmke 30th May 2004 13:57

nope, not needed afaik

The Senile Doctor 30th May 2004 14:00

no reinstall,went like a charm. never any problems

Gamer 30th May 2004 14:01

it has the same chip, so I would be possible.
maybe I'll try it out.

thx.

jmke 30th May 2004 14:03

as long as it find the WinXP install you're all set, don't try to mix SATA/PATA though (Pata on P4C800 and then connect on SATA @ IC7 .. won't work)

Gamer 30th May 2004 14:07

HDD is SATA @ P4C800, no problems there.
gona try it out without mounting the mobo in the case first :)

jmke 30th May 2004 14:09

hmmm... let me know how it works out, never switched mobo's with a SATA HDD.

The Senile Doctor 30th May 2004 14:19

just biossettings that need to be ok

piotke 30th May 2004 14:23

4.1 Ghz on air is nice, would be like 4.4 or even more with prommy. But isn't prescott much slower ?

The Senile Doctor 30th May 2004 14:28

it's about the same thing, some tests slower, others faster

Gamer 30th May 2004 15:18

on super PI it's faster, in 3D it's slower.
looks like the IC7-Max3 stressed the memory more then on my P4C800.
ran in some troubles on high fsb speeds beyond 260 fsb ?

max I could do was 3.900 super PI-Sysoft-PC mark 04 stable.
no 3D, because I dind't install the drivers for that Ti4200.

don't look at the vcore, it can work on much lower vcore.

The Senile Doctor 30th May 2004 15:21

well, just have to wait for the installation of the entire rig, and then we'll see just how much slower in 3dmark

no problems at all, just like you told me :)

damn, my PC4200 wasn't working to good with the abit, now I need some good BH5 to test this baby to the max :(

Calantak to the rescue ? :D

Gamer 30th May 2004 15:25

nope, not for today.
setup looks like this :
:D

The Senile Doctor 30th May 2004 15:25

two sticks of 256 mb in my workrig 200 2 2 2 11 at 2.8 volts, and not coming out,
two sticks of bh 5 in my girlfriends rig at 200 2-2-2-11 2.8 volts.
they are not coming out of there :)

Gamer 30th May 2004 15:28

:love:

I sold mine to Piotke.
stupid, stupid, stupid....

piotke 30th May 2004 15:44

exellent sticks ! :)

they rule !

Gamer 30th May 2004 16:15

sell them back to me ?
please ?

piotke 30th May 2004 16:24

sorry, I like them too much.

Sidney 30th May 2004 18:39

It must be hitting close to 180-200 Watts with 1.68 Vcore. I dare not get mine over 1.50 volt. ;-)

jmke 30th May 2004 18:40

180-200Watts aircooled? :wtf:

Sidney 30th May 2004 19:05

At 1.50 Volt 3.5Ghz my 2.8E hits 136 Watts based on Sandra reporting; I assume his must be close to 180-200 with 1.68 volt. Until he gets it to Primestable; right now he is enjoying it.:grr:

Gamer 30th May 2004 21:49

fun goes on :)

prometeia can't get this CPU below 0°, so this is the end.

jmke 30th May 2004 21:53

how stable is 4.2ghz?

Gamer 30th May 2004 22:00

4.2 is SuperPi-sisoft stable,...

4278 isn't.
only my ram can't get that high, so no good benchmarks.
ram was on 5:4.

jmke 30th May 2004 22:02

PC4400 could get to 285 using relaxed timings and high voltage :)

Sidney 30th May 2004 22:03

That's real GOOD.:klap:

How do you feel?
Eccentric
On top of the world
Simply wonderful
Happy
Sense of accomplishment
Grateful
Appreciative
Untouchable
All the above:feesten:

Gamer 30th May 2004 22:27

ok, maybe, but I'm not going buy other ram.
on my P4C800 this ram did 278mhz superPI 1:1 and now it isn't possible on the Abit.
not even 270 is stable.

have a look at this :



lazyman, I'm feeling old, you forgot that one :)

the PIV Northwood hasn't even run one day on 3.0Ghz, same for the R9800Pro.
the X800Pro will have the same treatment, I'm a veteran :)

The Senile Doctor 30th May 2004 23:42

so that means : no improvement on 3d... coz probably at 4.2 , even with 1:1 ram it'd be slower then the 4.0 ghz northy

my northy will go on another halfyear :)

Sidney 31st May 2004 06:03

Gamer,
Excellent numbers, nevertheless. I found the Prescott does better in DVD copy than Northy; otherwise, I don't "FEEL" the "SPEED". It's not like driving a V10 Viper versus a tweaked Camero with Vette engine. The V10 pushes you back starting at 1500 rpm all the way to 5,000.

It shows the Prescott can be Oc'ed better than Northy. I could push mine to 3.7Ghz but the mother is HOOOOT, yet stable. For everyday use, I leave it at 3.5. :^)

Should do a review on "Having fun with Prescott".

RichBa5tard 31st May 2004 06:11

I was thinking about buying one of those cheap 2.4Ghz Prescotts, they overclock like mad and cost only 128 euro. Then again, for less than 40 euro more one can buy a A64 2800+, which is faster and produces way less heat. Hard choice, but i guess the prescott would be more fun. :)
