Octo core boosted a bit

[Raby]

If you remember, in the temporary forum I presented to you my new cruncher :

Dual Xeon Quad Core 5410. These are 45nm Pernryns with a FSB @ 1333Mhz (333x4).

My mobo (Asus DSEB-DG - chipset 5400) supports a 1600 FSB.

And a very easy pin mod make the motherboard detect the chip as 1600FSB CPU.




It' now running @ 2.8 Ghz .

The crunching beast's appetite for WU grows even more

Try running Systool (http://www.techpowerup.com/systool/). I can overclock my i5000P/V/X-boards by selecting the ICS932S401 as clockgenerator. You can try it on your board too. Let me know if it works. I don't know what operating system you use, but it worked with XP and server 2003 with me, not with server 2008...

Also make sure your FB-Dimms are cooled well!

Already tried it and it doesn't work ; I'm running Vista 64 bits (weird idea I know ).

You could consider a XP/Vista dualboot as the changed FSB remains during a reboot. Only when the system is completely powered down, it goes back to stock-speeds.
