Very nice Jody.. especially on 32M pi efficiency @3994.8Mhz in the X58 region of 21437xxx !!!

Guess with ES sample cpu, you'd be bclk limited though. Wonder what the difference between a retail gem batch i5 750 vs average batch i5 750 will be

yeah man, that run was also within hours of having the board setup so i am sure i can get more out of the same clocks. the biggest performance killer is the locked uncore. RTL doesn't seem to have as huge an effect on this setup with uncore even this low so we'll see what can be done with higher BCLK's or higher uncore mutli's.

should be interesting to see what retail 750 batches start producing...too bad i won't be dumping anything into CPU's for this platform, just don't see it worth the hassle/$$$ of binning chips here.

nice review there 3oh6 for a minute i thought it was oner of evas as its so well laid out, very professional

thanks, this forum really helps with that. the clickable thumbs make this the best place to post everything

Indeed it does

Oh so uncore is locked ? I thought it was adjustable like on x58/i7 ???

3oh6

it might be on retail or the 8xx series, but i honestly don't know. i try not to read reviews of stuff, makes me hate the industry i am in

this 750 was definitely locked at 16X or whatever it was...super low uncores. RTL and B2B CAS Latency didn't really provide any advantage from what I could tell. the board pretty much chose the tightest of each on AUTO, very few manual adjustments to either helped performance or clocks it seemed.

cowie

damn you did that with a 750
nice
