    6176SE vs. 6274

    I run a 4p with 6176SEs overclocked with [H] bios to about 2.7 GHz CPU frequency and get over 400 000 PPD with WU 8101. If you can get 62xx ES (Engineering Samples with unlocked multiplier) chips you will be able to overclock them much higher - at least over 3 GHz - which gives over 500 000 PPD...

    Trying to tune 16 core 62xx ES

    At least the component that burned is easy to work on and replace - if that is the only damage. It could probably be removed using a heat gun [with shielding for the surrounding components]. Sending in the whole board for repair can however be rather costly... if it is not covered by warranty...

    Trying to tune 16 core 62xx ES

    I always put Enzotech heat sinks on all voltage regulators that do not have heat sinks from the manufacturer, and use fans blowing on them as well. I measured temperatures close to 100 degrees C before adding the heat sinks. After that the temperatures are below 65 deg C. I have H8QGL-iF+ boards...

    - Set your clocksource to hpet - this method of overclocking does not actually mess with the system clock, but there are other things that work better with the clocksource set to hpet. Instructions for Ubuntu Desktop: 1. sudo nano /etc/default/grub 2. Find this line...

    Trying to tune 16 core 62xx ES

    I had similar problems which I thought could be seen using the command "top" - there were several small kworker processes that took 1-2% CPU power each (this was in Ubuntu 12.10 Desktop). I went back to 10.10 in an attempt to get better PPD. However there are still TPF/PPD variations within the...

    Trying to tune 16 core 62xx ES

    Have you measured the temperature of the voltage regulators near CPUs 1 and 2? If you have heat sinks on them - or maybe a couple of small fans - then it should be OK to step up the voltage some more. Hälsningar från grannlandet Sverige! ;-)

    Why not try 1.2000 V You can add in steps of 0.0125

    Trying to tune 16 core 62xx ES

    My TPF has been varying quite a lot so it may be because of the different work loads on different 8101 work units. When I got the fastest results the temperature of the room was quite low also. No HT-retries have been seen, but it is 15 degrees C warmer here now so I went down to 3.2 GHz as a...

    Trying to tune 16 core 62xx ES

    I'm running 3.3 GHz now with the same vCore 1.1750 V. Power draw about 1000 W at the wall and temps low 50s. TPF 09:24 for WU 8101 which gives a PPD of 600 000. It is freezing outside now (-5 degC), and the rig is close to an open vent. Pretty cool stuff!

    Trying to tune 16 core 62xx ES

    At 3.2 GHz the power draw is about 950 W when running a 8101 WU (the meter is jumping between about 880 and 1000 W). I will probably step up to 3.3 pretty soon as the temperatures outside are dropping below freezing soon (which helps cooling the rig too). Will not change heat sinks - just...

    Trying to tune 16 core 62xx ES

    B1 chips are running stable at 3.2 GHz and 1.175 vCore with temps in the low 50s.. B0 chips were running stable at 2.9 GHz and 1.1625 vCore but the board suddenly died unexplicably. Does not post, no fans running... Thought the PSU had broken first, but it worked with another board. Had already...

    Trying to tune 16 core 62xx ES

    My B1 stepping IL chips are now running happily at 3.2 GHz with vCore 1.175 V However I have some B0 stepping chips that experience random shutdowns already at 3.0 GHz and the same vCore. That rig is water cooled and temps are below 50 deg C. I have now decreased the frequency to 2.9 GHz and the...

    Supermicro H8QGi/6 and H8QGL Next Generation OC BIOS

    Hi tear. Can you say something about the progress on making overclocking bios for Interlagos CPUs? P.S. I'm running 6176SE at 240 with the 16 setting now (Crucial Ballistix Tactical 1600 CL8). Temps < 49 deg C and TPF around 12 min for 8101 WU.

    Trying to tune 16 core 62xx ES

    I am now running at 3.1 GHz with vCore 1.175 Volt and temps below 52deg C. Edit: TPF about 10:00 to 10:15 on WU 8101 and PPD well above 500 000. No info on power consumption yet, but will check later. Edit2: Increased to 3.2 GHz at 1.175 V - same temps. TPF below 10 min and PPD around 550...

    Trying to tune 16 core 62xx ES

    Well - maybe my conclusion was a bit premature, but I noticed significantly lower PPD and a lot of new processes that consumed 1-2 % CPU time each (this was not the case in previous versions of ubuntu desktop). If there is something to gain for folding IL by upgrading to 12.10 then I would like...

    Trying to tune 16 core 62xx ES

    Managed to get the temperatures down another 5 degrees by opening the side panel of the HAF 932 and laying it down (apparently not enough airflow in the HighAirFlow - HAF 932). Tested upgrading to Ubuntu 12.10 for a short while - NOT recommended! CPU allocation to FAH decreased almost 100% (of...

    Trying to tune 16 core 62xx ES

    It turned out that I had already both fans in the same direction (up) for CPU 1 and 2, and this gave the high temperature for CPU 1 (58 deg C). A 120 mm fan is also blowing from the side to cool the VRMs. I tested adding another fan inbetween CPU1 and 2 - this resulted in a 5 degree lower...

    Impressive - those two fans at the side make a big difference even without heat sinks!

    Thanks for your help. I will try that "triple fan wind tunnel" and see what happens. I notice that you have no heat sinks on the VRMs in that picture. Have you measured the temperatures? (I bet that some are close to 100 deg C)

    Trying to tune 16 core 62xx ES

    I'm using the Supermicro H8QGL-IF+ board in a HAF 932 case. CPUs 1 and 2 are close together on that board. When the board is mounted in the case (standing up) it is difficult to solve the problem of hot air from CPU 1 heating up CPU2. I have tried adding a third fan on the right hand side...

    I have not been able to get my 1.6 GHz MC ES chips to work for folding. Problems with HT-retries and NB Watch Dog Error made me finally give up. I believe others have had similar problems too. If you manage to solve the problem, please let us know! see this post for example...

    Just push on no 3 and 4 and pull on no 1 and 2. It is possible to add a fan on no 3 and 4 but not on 1 and 2. Number 1 is the hottest where air is pulled down...

    Trying to tune 16 core 62xx ES

    What temperatures do you have with that settings? I get about 58 degrees using CM Evo cooler. Is there need for water cooling?
