Yesterday’s afternoon and today I had a LN2 trip with two AMD setup.
I was aiming to break the 7 GHz wall with the trusty Phenom II 955 B.E. and improve my precedent results on socket 939 with the Opteron 148.
I failed in reaching 7 GHz with the 955, tho I managed to improve just a little bit my Super-pi 1M score…still not satisfied with it but it is better than nothing.
Also got the time to play with UCbench in which I got quite easily the first place on the bot in the 955 B.E. category.

.:. SETUP_0:
CPU: AMD Phenom II 955 B.E.
cooling: Guglio’s CPU pot 2.0 (CPU)
MB: MSI 890FXA-GD70 – bios 1.86 beta
RAM: Kingston HyperX 2000 cas8 – Elpida MGH-E-Hyper – blue slots
VGA: nvidia 6200 LE 256 MB PCI-E
HDD: Kingston SSDnow 60 GB sata2
PSU: PCP&C 1200
OS: 2k3 server TW

.:. Super-PI 1M :: 10.297 s – 955 B.E. @ 6732 MHz

.:. UCbench :: 1092.3 pt – 955 B.E. @ 6110 MHz

Here comes the funny part, AMD socket 939.
Still the same stuff as the precedent posts, except for the cooling method.

.:. SETUP:
CPU: Opteron 148 cabrio @1.5*123% volt – CABYE 0536GPMW
cooling: Guglio’s CPU pot 2.0/Single Stage (CPU) and Guglio’s CPU pot 1.0 (RAM)
MB: DFI nForce 4 Ultra-D – bios 623-2
RAM: Corsair PC3500C2 2×256 MB :: Winbond BH-5 – yellow slots
VGA: nvidia 6200 LE 256 MB PCI-E
HDD: Kingston SSDnow 60 GB sata2
PSU: PCP&C 1200
OS: 2k3 server TW

.:. Super-pi 1M :: 23.547 s :: Opteron 148 @ 3565.1 MHz :: Corsair PC3500 @ 297.1 MHz 1.5-2-2-3 1t 3.8 + 0.03 volt

Some more frosty photos.

.:. UCbench :: 76 pt :: Opteron 148 @ 3520.3 MHz :: Corsair PC3500 @ 293.4 MHz 1.5-2-2-3 1t 3.8 + 0.03 volt

.:. Maxxmem :: 715.8 pt :: Opteron 148 @ 3565.1 MHz :: Corsair PC3500 @ 297.1 MHz 1.5-2-2-3 1t 3.8 + 0.03 volt

I’m not done but the dewar is completly empty, too bad I didn’t had enough LN2 to do the king of all benchmarks: Super-PI 32M.
Will do it the next time hoping to finally break this damn 21 minutes wall.

Cheers
