Thread: Overclocking of AMD Phenom XIV 9850

I have overclocked few processor with my friend but this time I am imagining of overclocking myself. I am having the common knowledge about an overclocking but just I am here to get few notes about an overclocking of AMD Phenom XIV. Too please furnish few notes about the undervolting for the similar processor. I am too interested in experiencing about the power consumption and temperature of the similar processor. I familiar there are several queries in one question, but since they entire are associated I believed to post entire these in one post instead than asking in numerous post

As always, create various purchasers of a new processor, the question of whether a great deal of untapped potential ability and thus looks wasted. Therefore, we try how these reserves can be determined: it is overclocked. Ideally suited is in the Phenom Black Edition, in which the multiplier can be selected freely. However, as we have already struggling with function time with a so high power consumption and comparatively high temperatures, we restrict ourselves to few "tentative experiments with air cooling. The 3.1 GHz did not need to go to function so stable, but we assigned to the deficiency of air cooling and high temperatures. The secure side, our try system has not only turned off once full, to secure the processor against overheating

I would wish to say about the Undervolting. To limit the power consumption, many readers utilize more of the supposed "Undervoltens": Here, the voltage of the processor - based on the function stress - to the point lowered, at which the system is functioning with the least amount of energy even balanced. In addition to the diluted power consumption, this has also systematically lower temperatures result. The Phenom XIV9850 is certainly not in this class flagship processor, since you a Black Version central processing unit with free multiplier likely not purchase, to shut them or to undervolt. Our handled processor but a balanced operation below full load in Prime-try to 1.15 volts - all of which will be punished at 2.5 GHz with fault, and aborts the try. The drop in temperature, is so clear and 20 degrees express low compared to the conventionally-powered example with a storing of 0.15 volts, and in the power consumption.

As common, we need to emphasize at this point that the TDP -stated through the producer with in everyday life has ability to do nothing. Based on the TDP can check an OEM is that he is constructing a system that can dissipate the maximum thermal output of the processor to the cooling system. As common, we evaluate in our system, the power use of the full Computer. We will measure the "Voltcraft Energy Assure 3000" in the BIOS, the power use, with any app (no load) in Windows and below complete load. To the computer below entire load really use completely, we require a program that both appeals to entire cores, and the graphics card calls fully. In our case, the quad-core processor is arrogated to four illustrates of Prime 95, while in parallel, the 2 graphics tries "Firefly Forest" & "Canyon Flight" from 3DMark06 in a loop.

To assure you will have the try on Windows Vista once again executed without loading the graphics card with Prime 95. But later the begin of this tool has just began and functioned with the power meter later a some minutes, the recording function. The novel Phenom XIV 9850 through storm with its rise to 1.3 volt input voltage once the peak of the area. It hints in any field in which it comes at the complete function, the Intel Core II Extreme QX6850, which was till just unbeaten as power-hungry processor at the top of every try area. A lone rash conducts us the AMD Phenom X4 9850 BE on his first reference clock of 2.5 GHz over 560 watts in mind - not so glorious record. The gain to 125 watts TDP is a well 30% higher than a Phenom 9600, one can name TDP of 95 watts. If you assume this 30% as a basis for evaluating values, then proceeds to the new Phenom 9850 processor well within its spec. Those details are, however, purely theoretical, since there is no exact data on the component of a producer on the consumption of a processor. Entirely these information are worked to trade on the TDP. The truth that the so high power use reflected on the temperatures, is just logical. Still there, the quicker Phenom is the first time, the Core II Extreme Intel's dangerous, as the chart express, on the following page. Early we expect at the temperatures, however, we even want the claim that the novel BIII stepping would commonly eat more power, achieve to the down.

The truth that AMD has altered something on the processor required is outside question, how this occurred perfectly, and those minor drawbacks are assuming into account for this, AMD will not be betrayed. The closely 30 watts difference (with a entire power of more than 300 watts) to a clocked an identical 1.3 volts Phenom 9600 BE in our try indicates with Prime, that the power need of the novel stepping, although not raised importantly, among BII and BIII stepping, but there is definitely a difference off the power - at least in our species. Claims that the BIII Phenom should be more energy effective than last example BII, we can therefore not support. AMD needed to generalize our searchings to a lively e-mail traffic (adding engineers), however, not one
