single quad core XEON 3210 (2.13Ghz@3.6Ghz rock stable 24/24).

Very interesting. I hope the wink doesnt mean you were using DR

That is an astonishing overclock for a quad.

My 3600Mhz time on a Q6600 and RC3 is 2mins 5sec - which means that RC4 is 40% faster than RC3!!!

What motherboard, vcore and cooling? And by stable do you mean Prime95 stable?

I have buy this processor as "pretested" CPU. It was garanty to be stable @ 3.3Ghz only with 1.36V.

I have simply raise its voltage to 1.48V (but also voltage damper ON to avoid Vdropp, PLL voltage, northbridge etc...)

- the cpu has been polished by myself and is cooled with a watercooling system (Swiftech) with 2 radiators (1 double the scnd is quadruple).
-mobo ASUS P5K Deluxe (bios 0501)
-memory : 4 x G-Skill PC6400 dual channel (400Mhz@620Mhz stock voltage ....thanks to the HZ chips )

Temps after 4hours of OCCT (similar to Prime95, but from 2006... it can find errors much faster than Prim95)
CPUs : 1)49°C 2)47°C 3)44°C 4)43°C
Mobo : 38°C
Ambient temp : 26°C

Will test with the RC3 for you my friend

ok I just have it rendered with RC3 and I get 2m4s.

So yes, RC4 is much faster than RC3.

[werticus]

the intels really are amazing though

with my 10 amd cores @ 2.25ghz (20.25ghz) i get 2:11 where as your 4 intels @3.6 (14.4ghz) are getting 2:04

amazing! also annoying (obviously there is a fair amount of loss in a DR render though)

Thanks for doing that, that is very good news for the future.

And you have tempted me to look at watercooling, although I know I will never try it. (running water inside a work machine?

I will stick to air!

Well... if you think that CRAY's super computers (or IBM or Fujitsu ...) are not "work" machines....
The bigest computers in the world are all watercooled.

But maybe do you prefer running your 500$ processor near its Tjunction?
or maybe do you love the MIG 21 takeoff sound that produce your PC when rendering?

[werticus]

i just ordered a watercooling and case in one system

the thermal take Kandalf case. Pretty good value...

you get all the water cooling bits you need and a case for $400au i just need to add a GPU block.

[suurland]

Good luck to all of you with a liquid cooled system.. this is what happend to mine some years ago: http://www.suurland.com/tests/koolance_leak/ The fault was not how it was mounted, but a crack in the molded plastic.

[priad]

shit

[suurland]

I for sure said "shit" when there was sparks inside the pci slot while the computer was still running.. only had a bluescreen a day or something for over a weak until i started to examine what was wrong, and it didn't take long to figure out.

[DaForce]

It pays to use special watercooling liquid which I believe is generally non-conductive. So leaks are not such a problem.

using tap water is well... not so good for leaks.

[werticus]

i was going to use distilled water that is not conductive - but it probably wouldn't matter if you had a leak it would pick up crap off the motherboard and become conductive.

[DaForce]

Yeah I think you would still be a hell of a lot safer with distilled water over normal water.

Good luck with it I say

My mate tried it once, and lost a cpu to it.. Now AIR only for him.
