Man, I had been staying away from this thread is it'll cost me money if I keep browsing/reading it. Now ya'll have me itching to go get a 930, mobo, ram, psu, case, hell lets toss in a video card too. Bah I hate ya'll.... :(

LOL! If your looking for a reason not to buy check out the threads that have folks looking to upgrade from a Q6600 and play mainly BC2. ;)

If your coming from a slower CPU (<3GHz) or do video editing the i7 will be more bang for the buck from an upgrade. You can save a few $$ by going dual channel (4/8GB). The X58 platform is a bit more expensive but very flexible when it comes to upgrades (3x SLI/Crossfire, Gulftown, 1/2/3x channel memory).

Very good explination Hornet.

If you want to know the actual voltages, the only way to tell them is with a multimeter. However, for most cases, like when you are playing in the safe zone, reading CPUz's voltage reading (or most software's voltage reading, some report the bios setting, while some report the measured voltage) is fine. If you were running above 1.4V then I'd start looking more towards a multimeter.

Correct. I'm sure CPUz isn't 100% accurate either, but I use it to gauge the drop. Now I don't know how precise it is either in measuring a drop, but clearly there's a drop.

And with load line calibration options and stuff, I feel that if I'm messing around with that stuff, it's better to record the voltage in CPUz under load and compare that with clock speed. That's why I generated a graph with 2 separate sets of lines. One with BIOS settings and one with CPUz voltage.

I try to give both values when people ask me what voltage I run at because I could say 1.35 @ 4.2 GHz and mean a true 1.35 or I could mean with vdroop + voffset it's closer to 1.28. Could be confusing. And that's why I got discouraged with my first chip when I set 1.35 in BIOS and could barely inch past 4ghz.

I have this same exact batch bought from MC in Tustin. I also have the asus p6x58d premium board coming in tomorrow. I had an asrock x58 deluxe and i couldn't get the chip stable over 3.5ghz. Hell it was barely stable at stock clocks/volts. I'll report back my findings over the weekend. Also using watercooling.

I'd like to provide some informal testing #s.

3wayTIMtest.PNG


AS5 was the first compound tested. It was in the system already for the past 5 days, so it's actually past the 200 hour burn in time.

MX-3 and ICD7 claim no burn in time, but I've seen graphs that show they still drop over time to give better temps. So these two may be at a disadvantage.

ICD7 clearly wins the pack. I left it going overnight and when I woke up I saw that temps got even lower, but I snipped the first 30 min only for this informal testing to compare against MX-3.

AS5 used the rice grain method as advised on their site.
MX-3 used the pea sized method (no instructions could be found)
ICD7 used the pea sized method as stated on their site

Max temps per core here:
AS5: 85/82/80/76
MX-3: 87/86/83/81
Diamond: 82/80/79/77 WINNNNNARRrr

Some other voltage tweaks allowing lower vcore & vtt (from xmisery Overclock.net):
CPU PLL Voltage: 1.82v
IOH Voltage: 1.12v
ICH Voltage: 1.20v
CPU Differential (800mV)
CPU Clock Skew (Delay 300ps)
Spread Spectrums all Disabled

Interesting Observations: The change in voltage settings jump significantly going from 4.0 Ghz to 4.2 Ghz versus going from 3.8 Ghz to 4.0 Ghz = however, the temp difference between the setting goes up the same at each level both idle (4c) and max stress (5c). I may be able to go slightly lower vcore on the 4.2 Ghz but I just dont think it will matter relative to temps.

What gives? I am not sure if voltage settings, as long as you stay under recommended maximums matters relative to what you are comfortable with temperature settings which probably matters more. Does voltage really matter versus temperature control?

So I have my 930 at 4200mhz with 22x200 and its stable. Passes linx but it gets hot topping out in the high 80s. The reason is I have to leave the vcore on auto and it settles between 1.41-1.42. The system wouldn't even boot at 1.42 if I set it my self in the bios let alone any lower ones I tried. I am running an Asus rampage 3 with an H50 push pull. My idle temps are about 45c. Any thoughts?

If you want your CPU to last I'd recommend backing down. High 80s + >1.4V on an entry level water cooling system is not good.

Any recommendations? It only gets to high 80s under 100% load, but I guess the volts will kill it. Do you think I might not have a good clocker?

Have you tried Cecil's guide? I'd start with locking down the voltages while keeping the temperatures under 83C in Linx. Then push use a program like setfsb or your board's soft OC'ing tool to see how far you can raise your Bclk.

How is the spread of your temps between the cores? If you have a large spread you might want to try reseating and ensure high, even pressure from the clamping mechanism. Are you using good TIM and a thin layer?

The spread is good, no one core seems hotter then the others. I used IC diamond but tomorrow I am going to try and reapply it and reset the cpu block. cpu idles around 38c and cores fluctuate between 42-48c.

Hey guys, first thank you all for the wealth of information here! Cecil's guide is great! sfsilicon you have had some great input here as well!

I have a question, I think I already have an idea of the answer but here goes, Can the same techniques be used on an I5-750? I am guessing that, since it's the same CPU minus HT (Which actually could be good for temps anyway) it should be pretty much the same Idea. I got a Cogage TRUE Spirit with a 1156 bolt thru kit (Thanks Frozen CPU!!) on the way, so soon I should have the proper cooling to see what this thing will do.

Welcome Mosher. I'm not really familiar with the i5, but I'm guessing your correct. I'd google to look for a good i5 OC'ing guide. You just need to make sure that you get one that applies to the older chips (Lynnfield) not the newer ones with integrated graphics and 32nm (which should OC differently).

I have the Cogage TS that is a nice heatsink. If you need more performance try replacing the stock fan with a Scythe Gentle Typhoon 1850rpm.

Just out of interest, this is a i7 930 thread, why not ask about i5 here? What are the prospects of getting you to drop the i5 and go for the i7? I was in the same boat a few months back and I ended up spending the extra money for a X58 platform so that you have a better upgrade path and a longer lasting platform. P55 only makes sense if you are sure you will only never do Crossfire/SLI and your on a tight budget. If you have a Microcenter/Fry's near you you can get the i7 930 + X58 combo for around $350. The cost of the remaining components for a build is comparable.

Funny you should ask that!! :D

Actually what I have done IS get a I7-930 plus an MSI Pro E (From your sig basically the same setup as you have! XD) from fry's this last week for $309 bucks I couldn't pass it up! I am selling my setup to my uncle to recoup some of my losses, in addition, he plays alot of games so I am going to make sure that he gets every last ounce of 24/7 performance I can give him. When I ordered the Cogage TS I ordered 1 for me and one for him! So I will have a setup with the same everything and get to see the difference between the I5-750 on the 1156 and the I7-930 on the 1366 first hand.

I am actually a LLLOOOONNNGGG time reader of Hardocp sometimes it's fun to get to do my own little benchmarking and OC'n with compnents to compare. In the past my friends and I have actually gotten together before and just started swapping out hardware to see how big an OC would go, how fast we could run Time Demos or 3D Marks. What I love most about this site is that I have met Kyle and of all people who I have met that do reports, reviews, blogs or whatever, he is perhaps one person I consider the MOST trust worthy, That doesn't mean I always agree with his point of view, but I highly respect anyone who will shoot from the hip and call it like he sees it. That's what has kept me coming back and reading this site off and on for well over a decade! (At least I think.... Damn... All I know is I was reading this site since well before the whole Rambus / Intel debacle, I heard about the 1.13ghz Coppermine failure from here etc) So Needless to say I appreciate the welcome, the advice, and I hope to be a positive member of the [H]ardest community anywhere!

My Uncle has 2 GTX 275's in SLI currently on a C2D, The EVGA board I have is the SLI 132 and should still be pretty nice with that setup since he will still get x8/x8 lanes. It won't be the most optimised setup, but all he does is game, and with an OC on that I5 I hope it gets the job done for him!

As soon as I can get the Heatsinks in I will start Tweaking away and add to the lists! ( I can say that this I7 looks like a week 197 the number is 30048197 if I am reading that right o_O Freaking small type lol That could be a B)

Just started OC'ing this chip and the motherboard has an early bios. I'm also thinking about re-seating the HSF to see if I can get better temps.
I ran out of paste on this new build so I'll order more then re-test with Linx.

:eek:

I have a 3004B197! I got it installed last night (Like I said) and I was able to get to windows at 4ghz, I just haven't had enough time to see what else I can get, I tried for more but it started to get unstable. I will def try what you are talking about here it sounds like I might have alot of room volt wise!!

Thank you for posting up!! :D
 
Keep in mind that I am an old school overclocker and have no problem sending brand new hardware up in smoke.. and have done so many, many times.... Over volt at your own risk good sir.
 
Really like the i930. If my q9550 machine wasn't such a well built machine I'd go for a DFi X58 i930 build.

Enjoy reading about the i930 over clocking. :cool:
 
UPDATE :
Gadfly is just spot on, at 1.29Vcore, this CPU hit 4.210Ghz with HT on!
Would of already posted it up, but I am having trouble getting LinX to work, it's not loading the CPU even after I hit all and start. (Maybe I didn't install it right not sure)
Idle temps are right around 38-41c so I am pretty confident I am right in the sweet spot. Soon as I am done I'll get teh info posted. 197's are great chips!

Needless to say, I am very happy!

Oh and a tip for those gathering info... Set your Ram Timings don't let your board Auto this, I couldn't get my DDR3 1600 to run at 1333 until I saw what the timings where, once I set in the correct timings, it went to 1600 Easily and there is probably more there. So here's hoping this helps someone avoid a "DOH!" moment like I had hehe.

Nice OC Mosher, funny I have the same set-up as you (MB+CPU+FAN+Win7-64), but your hiting 4.2GHz. I'm only running dual channel so that might be the problem. I also have a small Lian-LI PCA05B case, so my temps aren't as good as yours. Are you using any CPU load line calibration? I'm getting quite a Vcore swing between load and idle. I hit 1.29 under load, but I'm close to 1.37 Idle. I'd love to try more Vcore, but I don't want to push the idle Vcore too high.

Are you using Realtemp for your temp monitoring? If your using Prime95, you should see a higher load temp with Linx. What is your problem with Linx? I didn't experience any problems.

I'm pretty sure my problems with Linx reside between the mouse and Keyboard as I have never used it before hehe

Downloaded Prime 95, Core's are seeing 84c, 81c, 79c, 78c.... In that order as well. I'm going to check and see if I can get away with a little less Vcore. I'll try to get something that will allow me to monitor my Vcore under load and post up results for you.

I didn't even notice you were only Dual Channel.... Not sure what affect that would have....
 
Ok, in the Bios the Vcore is set to 1.29, I am getting 1.27-1.288 under load watching the MSI monitor.

I noticed you (Unless you updated, sorry I missed it) have version 8.6 Bios in your profile, other then that we are almost identical, other then Batch of chip....

I have a feeling it's my chip, dual channel or case temps. :( What PSU are u using?

How is your IOH temp? My batch of X58 PRO-E had initial 100C IOH. Fixed it by reseating and using new TIM. Now hovering at 70C w/o extra fans.

---

Has anyone sold their CPU on the 4sale board? How does that normally work (e.g. paypal, then ship?) Do you typically offer any type of guarantee (DOA, 7 days)? Does Intel honor any the warranty if resold? Am I better off eBaying it?

PSU is a Rosewill 750W, IOH temps are from mid - high 70c.

Dang man I am sorry to hear that the chip won't OC for ya =(

Yea I cannot deny this is a really good chip, if you can get your hands on a 3004B197, very good chip.

Now I have a Antec 900 case, with the side off atm. Ambient in the room is probably 72-3F. I don't think the temps will change that much when I put the side on as it's pretty much an opening anyway. Before I do I am going to play with the Voltages some more and see how low she can go. :D

I'm not sure the Chip is the main issue, but the newer ones do look like the OC better. I did quite a bit of tweaking this weekend. Redid my Heatsink and got better temps. Added a 3rd DIMM to make sure that wasn't the issue (was able to hit 1600). I was also able to get the CPU up to 4100 (20x Linx stable at 1.35V) after I turned off Turbo Boost that I was playing around with the last month. Added a pull fan which did help temps a bit. I think the main problem is the temps in my Lian-Li PCA05B. Temps are fine (one core hitting 85C, rest below 83C running 20x Linx). When I try to do a longer Prime95 run the temps start in the upper 70ies then head higher after an hour and eventually crash.

Update: I give up tweaking this thing. With a Microcenter & Frys near by I'll just try my luck with a new chip (as soon as I sell the old one). Selling the CPU on the FS section.

It seems no one has any data on the 3939C199 batch... I just got mine today with an X58A-UD3R rev2. My h50 arrives tomorrow, I hope to have some results for you guys soon.
 
My batch.

Will be doing some tweaking with it as soon as I get time to put my upgrades all together.
