So, I recently (tonight) built another G3258 rig. Yeah, old tech by now. But this one was my best sample yet. I was able to boot and run Windows 10 at 4.4Ghz, at stock voltage. But sadly, not stable under OCCT.
So, had to drop multi down to 43x, 4.3Ghz. Bumped voltage to 1.280V. Not too shabby.
It's fun to compare the CPU-Z benchmark results.
This little dual-core, is equivalent in performance to half of an FX 8-core, in MT, and like double a core, in ST.
Edit: Temps are definitely an issue, which is why I didn't push for more clock and voltage. It's in a SFF case, that doesn't have a fan, I don't think. At least, I don't remember connecting it. (I guess I should check?)
