Wolfdale LGA775 Extreme Overclocking - Some E8600 & E8500 Record Scores

The last but surely not the worst part of my recent LN2 overclocking session was with the legendary Rampage Extreme X48 motherboard once again and I wanted to revisit my best E8600 to double check the impact of varying CPU PLL voltage to be sure that the CPU has been maxed out. I managed to break the Superpi 32M record for the E8600 CPU and the whole LGA775 platform for a moment. I also improved my Pifast score by a little bit with that same E8600 CPU.
Most of the scores of that session were made with an E8500 that I binned myself not that long ago, which wasn't bad but nothing spectacular either on air cooling. It only did around 4.5GHz in Pifast with 1.3-1.33v but scaled really well with temperatures on LN2. With CPU PLL voltage lowered from the stock value of 1.5v down to 1.4v I was able to run the CPU as low as -175c. With so low temperatures I was able to push the CPU over 6.4GHz in tests like wPrime32. In the end I was able to take down all of the E8500 top scores with this particular CPU apart from the highest CPU-z validation, which I didn't even try as I'm not a big fan of frequency validations.
All of the record scores were made using the Asus Rampage Extreme Team Finland edition, which has the record FSB of 710MHz achieved around 10 years ago. This time I used the Kingpin Cooling Dragon F1 Dark CPU container, which is truly awesome for these old CPUs that have a really delicate cold bug. Very easy to control the temperatures with this single copper piece monster. KPx thermal paste was used as always.

Would definitely appreciate a good XP Bench OS video!

Great results on these LGA775 chips, congratulations on your new records and good luck in future overclocks

[@Begleitkubus]

I love 775 OC, congrats on the scores! I personally struggle hard tho with getting high FSB. I'm kinda stuck at P45 because X48 boards like the REX go up to 500€ these days :(

Great, but how about some, X99 classified 5960x 6950x overclocking on LN2!?

[@ivanzabiyako9550]

Cool! Bro

👍👍

a video about tweaking the os would be great, joe promised us one but he's slacking as always. i'm most interested about the chinese - why? shouldn't the characterset be bigger, making it especially ineffective?

[@amirhoseinizadpanah4310]

interesting about processor batch number, can u share it ?

[@FlanK3rCZ]

this is nice motherboard, golden one piece :) I can not find here (localy) this model of motherboard :(

[@evergreen870]

I got an E8700 but haven't got enough time to boot it up yet

[@NUCLEARARMAMENT]

You should consider liquid neon. Melting point is like -220 degrees C.

luumi what is that kind of fan that you put over the motherboard to cool its like connected to your desk and leaned over with big fan
