the hell is speed step? what is the stock speed of the e8400?

okay so 12 seconds and it's under stock speed at 2.4ghz. what?

It's not at 2.4GHz, he has C1E enabled which lowers the multiplier on the Core 2's by 2x, which gives it a lower speed when the CPU is idle or doesn't need much processing power. The point of it is to lower the temps when the PC is idle, as well as lowering the voltage which is useful in mobile devices.

meh, the e8400 doesn't impress me that much though. would have expected better. i would have rather gotten it over my e6750 had it been available 6 weeks ago, but seeing the performance, i don't think it's significantly better like the hype predicted.

The E8xxx processors are nearly identical to the E6xxx, it really just has a 45nm process and more cache.

they do beat them in benchmarks, but not by nearly enough to justify anybody upgrading from an e6x50 to an e8xxx. however, i did notice a pretty significant difference in my upgrade from an e6420 to an e8400

i didn't realize they were so similar. yeah, i can see how the e6420 to e8400 would be an upgrade. my work computer is an e6300 and did the superpi in 29 seconds while my home e6750 did it in 19, both stock. pretty significant.
 
ok, heres a fully stock superpi shot with the e8400

well i didnt i didnt say it is fake. i'm saying it can be faked. and didnt see the 6 multiplier there. :D

anywho, did your chip come in yet thatguy16?

this chip is an easy clocker.

you're right thatguy16 you da man!

the 4ghz part seems accurate but don't know about 3.6 i went straight from 3-4

i did try at stock at it is 15 seconds

too bad core temp doesnt work with vista 64 yet...



didnt even remove old as5

I can't beleive i missed your post all together :P

Just got the chip, im still tweaking. I got up to 3.5ghz and got 13sec, and working on 3.6ghz (stable). I'm new to these intel bios, im hoping for 4.0ghz stable as just about everyone is getting with 1.3-1.38v :eek:

hey kof. why does your sig say you have a qx9650 but cpu-z claims you have an overclocked 8400? i cant see why anyone with a 9650 would buy one of those...

What processor is that? It would be best if you could post a CPU-Z screenshot to go along with it.

oh sorry, its an AMD 3400 clocked at 2.65GHZ, im too lazy to post up the screenie.

why is that a bad score for my processor? (my system has been slow lately,)
 
Kof you might be using too much voltage, im running orthos right now at 4ghz @ 1.28v! (43*c load). I'll post a screenshot of a pi run @ 4ghz in a bit, i got 11.9 sec
