Mud you need to change your cpu-z I think your going to need 2 fans on that PM for 4.3Ghz
yeah...right...!! just changed that..  .!! And regarding the fan you just read my mind. I also borrowed some OCZ Freeze from one of my fren here. heard that this thing actually helps reduce 5-8*C and regarding an extra fan, you just read my mind, I have been thinking of adding another fan but I need something better than Antec Tricool in terms of cfm (like 89cfm or something like that) as this one is going to be used as a pull fan, which will be directing the air towards the rear fan i.e. Scythe Kaze 3000rpm!!!

Hey expedision thanks for the reminder tip. Just installed the heatsink with OCZ freeze and installed a Scythe Flex as push and used my existing antec tricool for pull towards the rear and check this image...!! the max load temps have gone down by 7C!!! cheers to OCZ freeze, coz i am pretty sure an extra fan will not make the temps drop to such an extent!!!!

HT off.... less than 1 hour... HT on 1.5 hours??? All the settings were the same... only HT was turned on this time. I'm running into some kind of bug on the high clock speeds and or Bclk with LinX. "Shock-the-Monkey" and I have both noticed this... there seems to be some sort of memory leak in all the later versions of LinX. When using a locked chip the only way to make it faster is to use a higher QPI... when we did this... it took way too long on the first pass (250 sec)with very low gflops (35)... and as you continue... longer and longer for each pass with less and less gflops as you continue until you get a pop up message from windows wanting to shut down stuff to create more memory. I didn't have the memory problem running the unlocked W3570 at 23 x 207... but it should not be slower... it should be faster. As soon as I get done trying for 4.8 ghz... I'm going to do some 4.5 ghz runs to see what they look like on the time and GFlops.

gvansly1 grd003Speaking of SuperPi, I want to know how you got 9.0 at 4.315GHz. I have to go to 4.462 to get down to 9.062, mem speed 1680, 7-8-7-21. Mysteries, I say, mysteries. I saw that expedision had a different version of super pi....so I went and got it and my calcs are now 9.45 apparently there is a rounding issue eith the version I was using before... new pi link Thanks for going to that effort, but I was sorta wishing, hoping you had found a magical performance booster.

If you get an error in LinX and then simply restart without exiting and re-running, LinX will produce results like you experienced. You can also induce it by just stopping and restarting a LinX run. 4.7GHz is a great achievement, a significant milestone for sure, but when you get your GFlops up to where they should be, 4.7 with HT On may be a very different setup than your run with HT Off. With 40GFlops the test was literally idling along, not much of a load on your system. You might want to complete 4.7 before you go to 4.8. You're not the only one who has had this problem. Look around. Almost any stability run of 4.2GHz or higher with less than 50GFlops is an error run which is not actually stressing the setup.

Strange. My guess is it was screwed up from the get go as mine ran higher gfpos at less time at 4.315ghz with HT on. Your 1st run was more in line with mine.

I've noticed an interesting correlation between your Lynx speeds and your various voltages. I've found that tuning your voltages to the lynx gflops actually allowed me to decrease the test speeds from around 22 seconds on a 10k test to around 16 seconds. Initially increasing my gflops from 47 to around 58 when I was done. Voltages are important of course to your stability and the more stable you are the better performance you should theoretically get. Has anyone else noticed this correlation? Edit: Finding your max base clock and noting what setting you need to maintain that clock was pretty important to me as far as OCing my rig as well. Using proper voltages for the base clock and final clock together got me far stable and shed 5-10*C off my heat while loaded.

Maybe I can chime in on this a bit. Only Dua|ist will be able to shine in on this fully in time, but yes it is some sort of bug in LinX and no, your system is not loaded at 100% LinX load despite various tools indicating that it is loaded at 100%. Let me rephrase for clarity... Your cores are still occupied 100%, however the test intensity is greatly reduced because of whatever bug is acting up in LinX. Effectively, while you are applying 100% load you are not applying 100% LinX intended load which means lower temperatures and false stability results. This is not a recent problem and has been happening in LinX for a while. Think of it as part of the test crashing internally most likely because of chip instability but not reporting any errors. Load is still 100%, but part of the test is really not running correctly and/or loading the CPU correctly. Overall, I think you understand that not every 100% load is the same kind of 100% load, meaning there are tools that can load the chip 100% but produce significantly lower temperatures. A good example of this is a chess simulation that I also use for stability testing. It has the most consistent 100% load on the chip of any tools I have however it generates temperatures 10C-15C lower than LinX and about 10C lower than Prime95 on average. On an (un)related note your load temperatures with HT off vs. HT on are exactly the same (within STD error). Did you crank up your chiller? This makes no sense otherwise even if you are not maxing out your cooling potential...there should be at least a few significant degrees of difference in temperatures.

Is anyone else besides "Shock-the-Monkey" and myself having this LinX memory problem??? Nothing else is running except my wifi and the programs needed for the stability test! *note*... will still happens even when wifi is not installed. "Shock" thinks it has something to do with the video driver?  I'm thinking OCCT would be a better stability test... it has Linpack and gives the same drastic temps as LinX... also shows all kinds of info and logs graphs. LinX just seems to be plauged with problems. OCCT Download... try it... you will like it! http://www.ocbase.com/perestroika_en/index.php?Download

overclocker333 i just tried mine without HT and I too got better GFlops, infact, better than I have ever seen. it used to be 49 when clocked at 4.0GHz and 53 GFlops @ 4.2GHz. but since you mentioned earlier then I tried without HT and its coming up as 61 and the time taken was CONSIDERABLY lower. and in this I never had any errors infact i did the test just after switching on the computer...!! image:

overclocker333 ....Do you have page file disabled, if you do thats your probem. I get 65 Gflops at 4.5Ghz.
I am sorry expedision but how pagefile is related to GFlops. and if you have pagefile disabled how is it possible to run your system and making LINX consume 4788MB of RAM?? I had my pagefile set to 512MB and when I increased it to 1024MB I stopped getting "paged to nonpaged file" BSOD (or something like that)....sorry if its a silly skepticism!!

That is the warning he is getting, system low on memory.
Disable the Page File
Description: Eliminate writing memory to the SSD, free over 2GB of disk space.

I had the same thing happen to me. I have it set to 512mb now, because of this warning and Linx.

Back on the old forum of this thread I ran 4700Mhz+ with HT off for comparison of GFLOPS and after having to tweak voltages down (system did not like them to high) was a 11% increase in GFLOPS of HT off vs HT on. Why IDK.

I see an increase of about 53-58 in Gflops at 4.3GHz with HT off as opposed to HT on. Changing your voltages, even minor changes will also effect your Lynx times, I tweaked my voltages with HT on from about 49-53 Gflops initially. Faster and stable.

Here is what a guy that sells premium i7 920 chips on eBay has to say about HT: http://cgi.ebay.com/Brand-New-Intel-Quad-Core-i7-920-CPU-4-3Ghz-OCed_W0QQitemZ140359746284QQcmdZViewItemQQptZCPUs?hash=item20ae17c2ec Quote from listing:
HT or Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology This is another funny story. It was a disaster in the Pentium era, Intel decided years ago to shut it down, and now Intel suddenly resurrect it. Here is a "copy paste" from a old ZD Net article….."Not all software works well with hyper-threading. It can slow some software down -- including, to Intel's chagrin, most current benchmark software -- and quite a lot shows little or no improvement. Also, because Hyper-threading makes a lot more of the chip work a lot harder it increases power consumption and thus heat dissipation, stresses cache usage more, and so on." And here is a link ixbtlabs.com to a more recent one, please read it and consider the testing have been made to an NON overclocked CPU, by overclocking you are allready "Turbo", continously, not just "on demand" . A little excerpt ..."Despite its new reincarnation, Hyper-Threading is still as controversial as in times of NetBurst. This technology yields zero performance gains according to our overall score (rounded), ".... HT allows to double the numbers of simultaneous threads. The theory is that double thread=double performance. Well... in my 25 years experience, I still have to find more than 2 or 3 kind of applications that have some advantages from this technology. And even when they do, the gain is so minuscole that it is just not even worth to consider. Please google HT or Hyper-Threading and see if you can find anybody else than Intel, appreciating this feature. The cost of HT ON is more CPU voltage required at the same Clock speed. Which will generate more heat and the need to use noisier fans to cool it down. The benefits are next to ZERO, not only in my opinion. Somebody may say it is actually a matter of personal taste and opinion and I may agree. Me, I hate noise, so I prefer with HT off , lower voltage and longer lasting cooler cpu. This testing CPU is with HT ON and OFF just for testing

expedision
overclocker333 ....Do you have page file disabled, if you do thats your probem. I get 65 Gflops at 4.5Ghz.
Thanks expedision... I will check... I was playing with the page fault settings for some SuperPi runs... but I think I set them back.

LOL... I'm really starting to dislike LinX more and more! This is not the first time this has happened... just as it is finishing the 20th pass... it seems like LinX puts a little spike at the end!

What did you think, it was going to be easy getting that Top Dog spot
