2X Fire Strike Extreme Bench at 4835MHz CPU and 2088MHz/1375MHz Memory on Titan XP's.
 
Would have Beat the #1 Position by 719 Points!

Well, I Only would have made #3 Position on this one,
 
Those top two running 980 Ti's on LN2 at 1929/1700MHz and 5800/5600MHz on their 5960X's were just a little too much! LOL!

Hallowen you are crushing it sir! I assume you say "would have" because FM HOF doesn't accept unrecognized cards/drivers?

That's sweet! GL with the E762.
 
I can only hope it goes this smoothly for my X58A-OC. Tried to boot it up one day and it just gave a 00/88 post code. Swapping out the cpu (eg. from 32nm to a 45nm chip or vice versa) without clearing the cmos will get it to boot into bios/windows but it dies again soon afterwards.  I'm pretty sure the bios chips are toast. I have a few new chips on the way to try, I have my fingers crossed that they will get it running smoothly again.


If the E762 also works and I can get the OC board  to recognize a keyboard and ensure it fully works I think I'm going to sell my 3820 and X79 board. If I go that route I'd pick up an X5672/X5677/X5687 (4C/8T 32nm Xeon) or an X5670(6C/12T) and run the OC as a 24/7 board.
 
Are the BIOS chips soldered on or in a socket? Either way replacing them might be your best option. That's odd it boots if you change the CPU out, it must be something relatively minor if it POSTs successfully.

Thanks Halo,
 
Yes, FM doesn't recognize the Nvidia Titan XP and the 369.05 GeForce Drivers are Not Approved.
 
I Just Hope that when the next Nvidia GeForce Driver is released for the Titan XP, It will also enable 3 and 4-way SLI for Benchmarking purposes (Like Nvidia Promised us) and Not turn out to be another LIE Like They did when they Told Us about the "Enthusiasts Key"!

Well well well..... 
 

 

 
When I hit power, it'll go through codes and hang at 25. That is "Shadow System/Vbios". If I hit the reset button on the board, it will start the POST code cycle again and this time it will finish POSTing correctly and go to BIOS. This works with the 960, I'm going to try the X5570 ES but I suspect it has a dead IMC. Oddly the BIOS on the E762 reads CPU temp as -43C. If I boot to an Ubuntu CD instead of reading CPU temp it just shows FF on the board. Not sure what's up with it and why hitting reset makes it boot properly, but that makes it boot and doesn't seem to affect the BIOS settings at all.

Cool, Glad the E762 is working!

Ran a quick Catzilla 720p Bench.

They are soldered on, not a problem though because it's only a 5min job with my hot air rework station. I should get the new ones this week hopefully.

Some pics of my DICE runs a couple of weekends ago that I never got around to posting. 
G3258 @ 5GHz 1.6V - this thing is terrible.
Evga GT 710 1GB @ 1650 core /1100 mem 1.6V VGPU 
 
Used the good ol heaksink in a sandwich bag trick for the gpu, poor little 710 never knew what hit it. Achieved a whopping 71% overclock on the thing, I swear these low end cards are more fun to play with than the high end ones. 
Temps varied quite badly though, -46C Idle, -5C Load.

The sandwich bag is a neat idea, I haven't seen anyone do that before.

Ah that's what I thought. Hope that the chip replacement goes well!
