Found some stuff on 3770K air temperatures, different from Techreport's tests. Temps abnormally skyrocketing beyond 1.36v

ivy%20obr.png

so @ 4.0 it uses 123 watts from a 77w turbo chip @ 3.9? and @ 55c also with 1.0v
stock cooler ?
just does not look right for a E1

It's not stock cooler.
Setup: Z77A-GD65 (latest BIOS), Noctua NH-U12P + two fans, CPU voltage measured by V-meter on measuring points, TcaseMax is 105C, ambient temp +/- 22C
original thread is on hwbot.org forum

Is that abnormal for 22nm, the sky rocketing after ~1.36V? I recall Idontcare and others with Fab knowledge saying the more efficient a chip is the harsher the curve as you pump more power into it. I believe it was found, when GPUz added the ASIC measurements, that the highest quality ones weren't the best overclockers in general.

Another graph that is lacking basic information, more crappy information. Bring on results that aren't crap.

Also, I think 1.36v on 22nm is probably higher than you would want to run anyway. I saw a screenshot of 6.9 ghz at 1.28 v, but of course that was more crap info as well.

also,

No it's not abnormal for tri-gate. It's the fact with tri-gate (thus far). It's abnormal compared to Sandy. "Hold on to your Sandies!"

Heheh. If you're OCing, then Sandy Vs. Ivy is nothing spectacular. Whats the difference in a 4.7ghz 3770K and a 5.0ghz 2600K? Nothing. In fact the 5.0 Sandy might be a little faster, actually.

Yeah a 4.6ghz 3570k will probably perform like a 4.8ghz 2500k - about a 200mhz difference.

I'm pretty sure ivy bridge is more than a 4% improvement on sb, you may be selling it short a bit.

The range is 4-10% depending on the benchmark test.
From the preliminary ES tests including the tweaktown one.
Other than the highest ghz benchers, what most are hoping for are higher daily ghz at same or lower voltages, e.g. the magical 5ghz at lower volts.

Whats max volts for this processor? Right now at 4.4Ghz @ 1.260v and its maxing out at 55C with an H80 in cinebench. Freakin rasa kit didn't arrive so i had to go with a backup

I have no idea what max volts are, but I saw a screenshot with 2 volts at 7 ghz :s

DO NOT even try to go over 1.35V. Too much risk involved, and they seem to tolerate high voltage badly.

If I were you I'd see what's the max you can get at 1.3V and call it a day.

Judging by the temps you've got some room to work with, that's actually better than I expected for 4.4ghz :hmm:. Can you tell us how high you can go @ lower voltage's? Can you reach 4.8ghz @ 1.3v reliably?

Very interested in seeing where the breaking point is on voltage limitations that start leading to temp issues.

1.35-1.36 would be probably it.
Temps might hit 100 if you go further.
I'll build tomorrow after work.

I agree with Axel on this as well. Don't push it past 1.35v unless you wanna wait until the official launch to get a replacement :p.

guys I had a es ivy and they are JUNK.I hit like 5.2 with exotic cooling and the thing would still peg up to 90c with 1.4 volts

Intels main goal with these is better power draw in and really targeted for laptops at a specific voltage and TDP

if you think about it they shrunk the die and beefed it up,where do you want the heat to go when you start pushing the mhz up and jamming more volts into it?

these will do great on ln cooling tho lol

Should be 5GHz as for 22nm, but seems that tri-gate ruins overclock.
