This is between an ES, and a Retail 870. ES was better for mhz, retail better for BCL.
air blck on ES was 221 air bclk on retail was 225, ln2 bclk on ES =255, ln2 bclk on retail = 266. Single stage temps almost enough to max out BCLK.

Sweet spot temp seems to be around -80+C.

I'm not gonna lie to you that I just put in an air-cooled stick of ram for the 3100 ram valid, I stuck a cooler express evap on the ram.

Overall, with regards to competitive benching performance, welcome back to C0's :D

Man I'm not going to lie. At times I get cofused with these i5's and i7 870's on which is what. LOL I guess what is still getting me is the 870 i7 that is a 1156 socket. They should have just left the i7 name to the 1366. I feel sorry for tech support guys when they start getting calls on why therir 870 won't fit in their 1366 socket! Anyways verynice.

is it me or did sham just break 3ghz RAM?!

amazing work admiral. care to elaborate on the performance comment?

In your post I see you refer to the mobo a Classified as well as the CPUz screenshot. This is the 1st I have heard of this as I had only seen talk of a FTW mobo. Are there going to be two separate mobos or are these going to be the same?

jeez , killer runs you got nailed there Sham , EVGA P55s will be very interesting for sure :up:

keep pushing it

aS IN p55 is just fun cos its new + you can show some high useless numbers - high bclk with low cpu multi, high ram - All which we know are kinda useless for breakin 3d mark records. Not one of the HWBot categories can be had by this platform right now unless it's within platform categories. But still at least something else than 1366 for me, I got no AMD stuff to play with and all just 1366 was too boring.

eh, i think the latter is yet to be seen. given retail silicon and perhaps a stepping revision P55 has the potetnial to clock high enough to come close to X58 in SPi 32M at least.
If this becomes what E0 is to yorkie quads and we start seeing 6ghz benchable chips, then it will be an entirely different story.

I have hope in the budget sector, mostly because I'm having to sell all my high end stuff :p

...P55 has the potetnial to clock high enough to come close to X58 in SPi 32M at least...
it will have to clock very very high based on my early testing in order for this to be true. because CPC, it's a hose job from the front to the back in the land that is SPi :up:

ugh. OK, maybe i just meant 3d marks :p
way to give hope to the poor.

ok....F1OC 32M is your turn.:D
