Bulldozer bereits auf Rekordjagd: 8,43 GHz

hier ei kleines video von der sessio
mäkinen meinte 7GHz mit ln2 sind überhaupt kein problem
wenn ich das richtig vertanden hab sind sie mit ln2 bis auf 8GHz gekommen
will haben

NordicHardware hat ein Interview mit Macci, indem auch einige Details zum Übertakten von Bulldozer eingestreut wurden:

[quote]NordicHardware: "Why don't your CPU's have a coldbug, and will all Bulldozer-samples come without it or does this only apply to handpicked samples?"
Sami Mäkinen: "I’d need to clarify this from AMD Engineering teams (and not sure if they’d be able to provide much detail to be honest…. But in short (and this is just a personal guess) it likely has to do with the design margins and similar to the Deneb and Thuban CPUs the design appears to be very robust and can withstand even the most extreme cooling solutions. Bulldozer is a very descriptive name in this case.
So far I have not seen a sample that would not run under LN2 – so it looks very promising! I have tested around 10 CPUs so far under LN2."

NordicHardware: "What kind of voltage did you need to reach your 8.429 GHz result, and how many watts this the system pull?"
Sami Mäkinen: "The sweet spot under LHe cooling and for the CPUZ workload was 2.0125V (CPUZ reported 2.016V). We did not measure the current going to the CPU rail but as usual the CPU power consumption drops dramatically when you move to very low temperatures. For this test the goal was to find out the max. CPUZ result so we didn’t need to load the system heavily. If I’d have to make a guess I’d say we probably stayed within the TDP"

NordicHardware: "How many samples did you have to go through to reach the new world record?"
Sami Mäkinen: "I had pre-tested 7 CPUs in Finland on LN2 and 4 of these hit over 8GHz. We tried one or two of these on LHe in Austin and saw 8.14GHz in the initial tests (temperatures, thermal contact and settings may not have been 100% optimal though). Eventually the CPU that we used for the 8.429GHz run was a random pick from the tray. It was never tested on air or LN2 before. We simply picked it based on the VID value (lower VID usually (but not always!) works the best under LN2). Initial run with LN2 seemed promising so we switched over to LHe and got everything dialed in just perfectly. Temperature dropped down to -235C and we found the optimal voltage level."

NordicHardware: "It says you reached frequencies "well above 5 GHz" with only air and sub-$100 water cooling solutions. Mind going more into detail about your ventures on air and water?"
Sami Mäkinen: "In terms of CPUZ MHz I’ve seen virtually every CPU reach over 5GHz when using a good air/watercooler. I believe the highest result I saw with aircooling was around 5.5GHz CPUZ. This CPU hit around 7.8GHz on LN2."

NordicHardware: "Also are these 5+ GHz frequencies that could be achieved by people looking for a 24/7 overclock on air or water cooling solutions?"
Sami Mäkinen: "There is obviously a delta between “CPUZ MHz” and “24/7 MHz” and overclocking is never guaranteed. But getting close to 5GHz (or even above) on good cooling solutions seems to be possible. Every CPU is different so your mileage can vary."

NordicHardware: "Last, but not least. Any hints or teasers about the FX-series performance?"
Sami Mäkinen: "As mentioned the goal of this experiment was the CPUZ frequency so we didn’t dive in to the world of benchmarking or performance yet."[/quote]

Vorallem "no coldbug" dürfte vieles wieder erleichtern.

Zitat von octacore

treibt aber die LN2 Kosten extrem rauf

ach, dafür brauchst nicht immer wieder sinnlos den pot erwärmen.

Gigabyte zieht nach: hicookie kommt mit dem 990FXX-UD7 ebenfalls auf über 8 GHz.

8GHz on 990FXA-UD7, not hard to reach without cherry pick CPU, LN2 Cooled -192°C http://valid.canardpc.com/show​_oc.php?id=2040266

wow, die bulldozer kommen den 9ghz immer näher

afaik kommt der mit 8ghz+ nichtmal unter 10 sekunden.
