G34 extraspicey

I am currently still tweaking my 2p g34 box...its ~178k for the box at 3.1ghz... I have some nicer ram on the way that should allow me to run in cas 7...and at 1600 whenever Interlagos arrives :)

just 100mhz more gets me 20k ....

Haven't they always been there? Saw in-stock yesterday, purchased that board last week and it is currently working on a 6901 at 8:41 TPF (Linux no Kraken yet) using quad 1.8's.

wow scaling is spot on... my calcs put it at 8.8 minutes which drops in at 8:48
 
Yea I jumped on this morning as it went from 0-30% or so while I was sleeping so I had some data. Pretty exciting. Also, with the AX850: 430w!!!!

Sounds like a lot but 48 cores 16 DIMMs, 4 CPU coolers and an onboard LSI SAS2008 w/ SSD so not too bad.

Board is HUGE though. Literally as big as the entire interior of the old ATX silverstone HTPC case. I am actually housing the board in the exterior 3-sided shell at the moment.
 
I hate you.... lol...

my 2p g34 with the extreme overclock kinda needs lots o volts 1.4 @ 3.2ghz
puts my power draw at 610w

I might have to consider 2.9ghz @ 1.25v for sub 400w
 
So I've got my Tyan 2P board in and while I don't have the cpu yet I decided to play around with heatsinks. I popped the 775 retention bracket off an old Arctic Cooler Freezer 7 I had sitting around intending to fab a bar to go across the base but decided to check the spacing on the stock bracket.

1 minute with a dremel later....



The stock 775 bracket with two sides lopped off is going to work perfectly to mount on the G34 socket and the Freezer 7 doesn't even block any ram slots. I'm a bit concerned how much smaller the base is than the IHS but i'm imagining the actual dies are still at the center of the chip and hence will be directly covered. Even so, other 775 compatible heatsinks have bigger bases so this may not even be an issue.

If you are going G34 then you may already have your heatsink and not know it...
 
the dies are not at the center of the chip, it is 2 istanbul processors under the same IHS so they sit side by side like the old Core 2 quads which were just 2 dual core's under the same IHS.

heres a good view of how big the IHS is..

based on that image, it should be very close but should still work.

I may go post some PICs of my 4x 1.8GHz... the quad boards are HUGE.. and I need 1 more.

I will add more pics when my new ram comes... ripjaws...gonna hack da spd to make my tpf lower :)
I have sinks on the chokes and vrms they are running much cooler now... (compliments of R-type)

120 fans sitting on the ram banks... 80s leaning against the cpu blowing on the chokes
