x2 6400BE vs x2 7750BE

yes they do, anyone know why?
btw, i finally got "un-lazy" and downloaded the newest version of cpu-z
btw: my mobo is running this chip @ 1k HT, this chip supports 1.8HT
how much, if any, of a performance loss am i taking with this board via HT
3DMark06 scores are in for the 7750 @ 3.2GHz
it only beats the 6400 cpu score by just over 100, not much of a performace gain to mention.
i will have my final conclusion of this after i hit the post office and ship this broken mobo (evga 590) off to canada.

super pi is not an AMD strength mainly because of their cache architecture.
you are nto taking too much (if any ) of a hit with the HT running that speed. depends on how memory-intensive the programs you are running. so, if you are doing that, you may be taking a performance hit.

for the final results and comments on these small tests.
while both chips were @ the same clock speed, there is a small advantage for the 7750 as expected.
meanwhile, the overall temps for the 7750 were much better.
keep in mind, that all the variants were the same for these tests, the only thing switched out were the chips.
i will have to toy with the new 7750 and see just how high i can get it to run.
but for now, here is my final results. (3dmark scores are cpu scores only)
thanks for reading.

excellent! and very well done review there, man.
i wonder what the power draw difference would be between the two at 3.2ghz.
i bet it would be pretty massive.
the temp difference is quite impressive.
i would like to know (and it may be in the thread somewhere if it is sorry) what voltages were required to get each chip to 3.2ghz.
well done taste!

i did not touch voltage for either chip.
it seems if i do i get the blue screen.
ill have to learn more about OC'ing and voltage control.
so the voltage's you see in the cpu-z are the stock settings.
i just tried to OC the 7750 even further, i ran into the wall.
16 is the highest multiplier i can hit without messing with voltage
205 is the highest bus speed i can hit without messing with voltage
3280 was my best clock without touching voltage for the 7750
3360 was my best clock wihtout touching voltage for the 6400
and thanks for the good comments
edit: did some reading, the 6400 was designed to take in 1.4v, i was running it @ 1.2, they may be the reason i could only get a 160MHz OC from it. but then again, when i did try to increase it, it just failed to boot windows.
7750 @ my best clock thus far, check the voltage (1.1)

Right now I HATE UPS so much.
*Cries*
Up the voltage man, up the multiplier, and suicide runs anyone?

just like the 6400, i cant touch the voltages or i get the blue screens
perhaps its just the board, perhaps not, ill find out when my new board comes in. 1/8/09 is when ups said they should get it to me.
not sure if i should try lowering my ram voltage back to 1.8 and resetting the timings back to 5-5-5-15 (4-4-4-15 is current @ 1.95v) and then try to raise the cpu voltage.
it would not even load windows with the cpu voltage set @ 1.185. (its curretly @ 1.17 {1.168}, this sux)
in my bios, there is no options inbetween 1.170 and 1.185.

you mean 1.17.....not 1.7v (1.7 = yum yum frazzle frazzle....)
btw with the volts, are you sure its not a mobo problem? or perhaps inadequate cooling? sinec higher temps can make silicon conductive rather than semiconductive and that can corrupt data and give blue screens....
if it is a mobo problem then you should cut back on the ram to make sure.....
i would suggest a PSU problem but it looks like an awesome PSU for you so it seems alright

i doubt its inadequate cooling since my current cpu temps @ idle are in the mid 20's (c), and my ram never felt even warm to the touch.
so im leaning to think its either the mobo or just maybe the psu, but i cant test against the psu. new mobo will be here late next week (according to UPS).
when you say cut back on the ram, do you mean come down to 2gb(currently with 4x1 sticks) or just lower the voltage for the ram.
