It's just a cool name for the next bench-off really. We all really get a kick from scores and the joy of pushing the limits.
Bench = Max reference clock (bus clocks)
restrictions = None. (that's right vin, none!)
How to post scores = UserName/CPU/Memory/Board/Cooling/Bus clocks. and Screen Shots
You may include pictures of your rig for fun.
Starts July 6th and ends August 6th.

Man reference clock maybe my Rex or EP45T-UD3R might go

I guess I'll use this as an excuse to actually learn how to do FSB oc on 775.  My P5E3 Deluxe should be perfect for this since it currently holds the highest FSB clock for this board. I recently got a P5Q3 Deluxe too so it'll give me a good reason to test fsb on that as well. Now the only challenge is to find a wolfdale that doesn't suck.  |

looking on the bot at the board I have and the tops on there is 539Mhz.. I'll have some challenges ahead... he was in a quad. hope I fair better...

Ving he got a EP45T Extreme he is gonna be the guy to beat I think its somewhere around 635 on air with right CPU

I've been looking at the bot.. seems for DDR3 the EP45T-Extreme (e8500) at 640Mhz is the top and for DDR2 a P5Q-E (e8500) at 450Mhz is the top (Both held by Noxinite btw)...

So far my REX has topped 600 before, may have to see how much further it can go.
Chip was on water, the board was on air at the time.

I'm really curious as to how well my EP45T-Extreme does. Yes, the one that's been collecting dust for like ten months. Yup, that one I got for a really good deal because someone wasn't paying attention...
Sure not going to use my P5E because it wouldn't get me to o too far I suspect (although it's bios is so much nicer to use...)

Either board would be ideal imo. Its going to depend on all hardware being used. The IMC and memory is going to be a big factor.
But 750mhz should be doable. I can see quite a few members on this team thats perfectly capable of hitting 700+.

I can see quite a few members on this team thats perfectly capable of hitting 700+. Asus' P5E is barebones, so you have to be really lucky with what you get. Best it's ever done for me is 575, but I've been tempted to try alternative cooling (aka get a better cooler for it) and a better power supply... Such things could potentially help. The Extreme though, that's the one I'm curious about.... ^_^ |

And that's why ideal, in your case perhaps. Since you're not going to get extreme IE: Dice or ln2 might as well run the P5E. personally, I hate killing expensive boards on max overclocks, but that's just me.

all comes down to the silicone lottery, and cooling for big clocks, ill have a go  , havent even used the rex yet since i got it , after i finish the 960T AND 955BE to see what theyll do, just havent had the time like i did b4 |

I apparently forgot to say "better north bridge cooler". As for subzero, most of my submissions the past three years have involved this gorgeous substance that comes in 5/8" diameter nuggets that makes an absolutely amazing rumbling hiss as its being used.... It goes in this neat looking thing that doubles as a sexy paperweight everyone misjudged the weight of (when it isn't being used anyways) and even the post office guy was all "what on earth is in this box!" ... My P5E is lucky to even get 500MHz fsb on air, on a good day.... ^_^ I may do testing and initial optimizations on air (well, now with a 240mm AIO/CLC) ,but dry ice is my usual benching medium. |

how much does extra cooling the NB help? I see guys doing SS/DICE/LN2 on the memory... on those top end scores... but it's not really the ram that they are pushing.. so what am I missing?
I did 500mhz with ddr2 a few weeks ago, but #1 is 455mhz.. again what am I missing? I don't have a good 775 DDR3 board, so I know where I stand. but I hope to do well with the board I have. got a new-to-me CPU coming.. hope it helps.

i dont know a whole about how it works vinnie , but i know NB is involved with the cpu, and good cooling for it is paramount, especially with high clocks, volts and mhz, pete will be along soon and explain it im sure, he knows how they talk to each other, hes told me b4 but i cant seem to get it into words right  |

Vin No idea if it helps with DDR3 or not, but it has helped with my P5E... Generally with getting better stability. Anytime I run it, I have a fan dedicated to keeping that heatsink blasted with air. One time I even made a tinfoil "boat" over that part of the heatsink that was filled with dry ice. Oh my, just purred smoothly that run... Vince used to sell a northbridge cooling pot, which fit P35/45 and x38/48 if I remember correctly... Was called the NB-2. I always did want to get one off of him, but he never answered my emails when I asked years ago, and it was eventually pulled off of his site. |

Vin No idea if it helps with DDR3 or not reason I said that is because the top FSB on the Bot for DDR2 is 455Mhz Base Clock but a 775 MB with DDR3 has pulled 750Mhz Base Clock

Ah Rodney they will go faster than that I have had my E8500 to 655x9.5=6229 in the Rex. Maybe you had better get a bottle of Vins Voltage Bravery Whiskey. 1.87v on the NB from memory it had the standard fusion waterblock on it at the time. Scannick was doing 670 bus with the standard air cooler on his rex with around the same voltage and said it didnt even get that hot. Anyone thinking they are going to get over 700mhz bus without Extreme cooling on the NB aint got much chance. Look at all those top P45 subs on the bot they all say the board is cooled with LN2 thats the NB. DDR3 boards are advisable unless you have got a stick of DDR2 that will do 700Mhz DDR 1400 comfortably as most P45 and X48 in DDR2 boards only go down to a 1:1 mem divider. Water cooling should do for the CPU run it at a 6x multi and the ram at 1:1.  |

I know - The NB was on air and I wasn't about to cook the board going for a record when it wasn't properly setup to do that. However it will be when I do go for it. This one does get rather warm and that was a factor in how hard I was willing to push it at the time. BTW I do need to pop into the liquor store.......  |

ViNG & Kotori going to be hard to beat if the MBs still power on, both boards I've had over 600 are dead. OP hasn't been on site for awhile. hwbot.org/search/submissions Sorry, link didn't hold put in board ref. and Warp9 for team, |

Isn't that a memory frequency record, and one Nox beat after a LOT of work? A record that stood for something like seven years and he outright smashed it.. Sadly, there doesn't seem to be an easy way to look up reference clock records, at least differentiating between various types of platforms... hwbot.org/benchmark/reference_frequency/ has some stuff including fastest overall... |
