New cpus from AMD and Intel

[gatekeeper53]

What I would love to see is a dual socket 939 board with a beefed up L1 and L2 that I could drop a couple of 4800+'s in. With the 4800 OC'd there is nothing in the price range that can touch it in Tanpaku. I look back at the work units and see what has run against mine and only the 6600e comes close and he takes longer to run the unit but has a higher benchmark. True I have no idea what else he may be running but the fact is everytime i run against one my cpu time is shorter. Sometimes by as much as 20%. I hear that the 5200 is an OCer's wetdream but I'm just not ready to go to all new boards and mem.

I've gotta admit that my little e6300 is a little beauty! ..it's not far behind your 4800+ ...and once I get a decent cooler on it I'll probably be able to push it up to around 3GHz (it's currently sitting happy at 2086MHz, 2.2Ghz is fine also ( but 2.4 is a little too much for the stock cooler after a while)

I'm about to go nuts with coolers. I ordered a Typhoon II for my 48 and what they sent me will fit your 6300 like glove so here I sit waiting almost 2 more weeks to really kick this thing.

Just had a little tinker with my 6300 it's now at...

3965 Whet
18309 Dhry

@2226MHz

Not bad for a cheap little thing!

Very Nice.

Hey BlackHeath,

I have a 6300 running at:

Measured floating point speed5201.89 million ops/sec Measured integer speed24114.48 million ops/sec

I have a new WC setup to put on this puppy also as soon as I have the time. I see people that are getting around 4ghz with a WC setup. The WC setup I have requires me to take the MB out and put on a cpu plate on the back, hence the reason its not already hooked up lastnight. What a amazing oc capability. I've never seen a cpu so Oc'able before EVER...

My 3400+ is water cooled, so I can push it up about 15-20% before other stuff holds me back

Ouch! what's it running at?

Unfortunately my motherboard is a cheapo ECS one which does not have voltage settings so I'm limited and it's still only got a stock cooler. But what I've played with makes me very impressed with this little processor! It seems to pretty much take whatever I throw at it!

If you think Intel and AMD are impressive, look what the japanese come up with in two years of research and building: http://www.channelregister.co.uk/200...2-core_co-pro/

Not bad as long as you have a large supply of liquid nitrogen around to cool it with.
