i have seen some pretty sick e7200 and e7300 numbers lately not bad for being a ~ $120 CPU

 

[gurusan]

i seem to have discovered a nice cpu

 

[NosBoost300]

holy crapola.. 1.16v and 4+ ghz... that is one amazing chip guru!

 

[gurusan]

yeah i tried 5ghz 1.45V but it kept crashing when booting into windows And temps are SUPER hot at that voltage...as in 60C idle!

derned low-VID hotness

 

[NosBoost300]

can't have it all i suppose

 

[BongWizard]

yowza! thats a sweet clock for that voltage... 4.1 @ 1.16V!! excellent gurusan! thats one mean chip

 

[gurusan]

another update

 

[BongWizard]

oh man... that is one efficient chip... i wanna know how much voltage you'll need for something like 4.8... you're gonna have to start pumping it in

 

[gurusan]

problem is after about 1.4v temps become unreasonable. 4.8 would be nice but i am content with my other e8500 that does 4.5ghz at 1.392V.

I will just be selling this chip.

oh eyah... didnt look before, but they're at 60° there... wouldnt wanna go much higher for regular use (could do a few pi runs tho)...
