^^^ get urself a E8400.the Quad Q9450 wont oc as much as the E8400 @ stock.also most apps as of now dont take advantage of all 4 cores.
even i'm planning to sell off my Q6600 for a E8400.

 

[darklord]

great OCing Darki, 5Ghz!.......can you provide some details like mobo and RAM. How "fast" is 8400 at 5Ghz. How much is 8400 in the indian marker. Also I was thinking of Q9450, but this 8400 seems impressive.......can you put some light which one to go for plus do I need to go for some upgrading part with my curent hardware....(I have a P5B dlx mobo with 800 Mhz Ram)......before I start thinking to buy 8400 or 9450...........your input is appriciated........thanks

Thanks Sam,
here are the setup details -
Abit IX38 QUadGT
Team Xtreem 1GBx2 DDR2 667 CL3 Kit
Seventeam ST 600EAD PSU
DICE on CPU, Air for chipset and memory.
even at stock E8400 is bloody fast.Q9450 is a better bet if you want Quad. i myself am on hunt for P5B Deluxe, anyone wants to sell ?
I guess i have answered all your queries, if you need anything, feel free to ask

If your board has chipset Revision C2, give me your offer price.

For Revision, open latest CPu-Z and click on the motherboard tab, it should show revision of the chipset.

 

[hellgate]

yup mines a C2 rev mobo.

Killer Config Darklord

Ok here goes my xfx 7300gs 256MB TC upto 512MB GFx cards bench result.

Note core is running @ 600Mhz & mem is @ 550Mhz

By the way :
What how far I can overclock my gfx card ie maximum core & mem speed

 

[darklord]

DICE on CPU!! wow. how much can we OC using the usual thermalight cpu cooler.
I am not much interested in quad core. I am more inclined towards more Ghz! per core (OCing basically) and the cache, which is an impressive 6MB for 8400........ok So my P5B dlx should not have a problem running the 8400 (I have the latest bios update). Would the 1333 proc fsb post any hinderance in OCing 8400 on P5B with an 800Mhz RAM. Also how much did you get the 8400 for.


PS :: What difference would this chipset revision C1/C2 make....mine is a C1..

Well if you are going to use TRUE (Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme) then i guess 4.2-4.3 is easy to do.Problem with these new 45nm chips is,even though they are cool at idle, they become very hot under load.So clocking on air has to be done,keeping this in mind.
1333 FSB CPU shouldnt cause any problem whatsoever,will clock decently.I got my E8400 from US and it cost me ~ Rs.8,000/- when converted.

C2 will give you better overclocking headroom,thats all, no major improvements and all.

^^^ u dont fail to amaze darky.
ur just too good.
is 30k 3DMark05 the next stop??

gr8 setup and equally gr8 bench scores.

 

[j1n M@tt]

this thread should be made sticky......

Gud work everyone

 

[darklord]

@ Hellgate, thanks man
Hopefully 30k shud fall soon

 

[topgear]

@ darklord

U r amazing us with every new rig dude. Keep up the great [ extreme ] work.

 

[amitash]

awesome benches darklord...
my rig:
Q6600 @3.070Ghz(software OC so it cant go any further)
intel DG33TL
ATI HD3870x2
TRUE
transcend 2gb ddr2 800

my 3dmark 06 score:16455
crysis at very high no aa@1600x900 givin 25+fps
assassins creed at max settings with max aa:32fps
im sure i can hit 17k in 3dmark 06 if my mobo wasnt bottlenecking so much...anyway isthis score a good one for this card???
PS:i wonder y this thread isnt a sticky...its very important

 

[darklord]

You should be getting better scores for sure.

I was real happy to see this coming up. Though I cannot do much of benchmarking, still voted for making this thread sticky.

Benchmarking is real interesting subject. and having benchmarking results of our hardware with us lets us decides which is really better. Though people have given alot much benchmarking tips creating there own thread but mostly they go down.
Good work topgear appreciated staring of this thread.

 

[topgear]

^^Thanks mate for your comments.

 

[rajatrao]

A discussion on latest benchmarking tools will be greatly appreciated here. Which tools to use for what, where they are available, whether on digit cd/dvd etc.

It will help if all users post results from similar tools for comparison sake.
