Core i7 day-to-day overclock

Doesn't matter which is more important for naming conventions. That's just the process at which Intel operates. Also, the die-shrink does come after the new architecture. Then on the same die size the new architecture (tock). But I don't think this semantic discussion is necessary. Go complain to Intel.

You did notice my smiley, did you?

180x20=130W
180x21=147W

That's according to CoreTemp.

Yes I noticed your smiley. Wasn't aware that "" meant "disregard my post".

Are you guys running at these clocks 24/7 or have power saving options enabled also?

I tested the OC for 24/7 stability but I'm long past the days of keeping comps on for 24/7. When I go out for a few hours the comp goes off. I used to have several systems on 24/7 while still folding for Sharky. But the electricity bill didn't lie...

And I am using all powersaving options. running 2160 MHz at the moment (180x12)

TDP is now 43W. About a 100W less then under full load.

The 32nm of the Core i5 series? Because I'm positive there are Core i7 32nm chips in the works that will run on 1366/x58.

no he's talking about the tock cycle on the bloomfield.

but like ive been telling everyone, dont hold your breathe because intel has been full of delays.

Like.... WHERE THE F IS MY i5 HTPC.

Actually Intel has been pretty much on track the last few years,...

32nm I5 platform 2cores - 4 threads which will offer similar to current I7 performance should be out before long,....

32nm I7 platform (1366 socket) is scheduled for around spring of 2010 6 cores-12 threads

I will be waiting until next spring since my current overclocked e7200 has plenty of power with the exception of video editing,... where I could use a lot more and more cores and ram,.... well that will always be the case with video editing,....

Just slapped a Xeon W3520 in my system. First try out of the chute I'm going 20x200 @ 1.2v .

That's more like it

Yep, and HT

Up to 4.2@1.25 volts. Still using HT - temps are hovering in the low 50's at idle jumping to the high 60's under load.
