I wan't to run some benchmarks on my 4.5GHz 3930K system and compare them. I mostly do video compression on this system for media server purposes, with some gaming on the side.
So, I'll mostly post some CPU benchmarks surrounding encoding and image rendering, along with Time Spy.
I have a new EK waterblock on its way, I'm waiting for some of the motherboard shortages to be over before ordering the main components. I might wait a bit for the upcoming memory kits from G.Skill, or just pick up some 2x8GB 3466 B-Die Trident Z sticks.
Subbed. Only just found your last thread. But I'm curious to see the updates. I'm in the market for an upgrade myself. I've got good specs on my current build, but I've out grown my RAM and 3hdd limited space (do a lot of work with virtual machines), and now my 970 since getting a 4k tv...
I also love the concept of the FT02 case. Gives me some good inspiration (so to speak) for my next build!
We'll both just have to be patient. The motherboard shortage is holding me back at the moment. I do have some things I am changing in my loop though, so I'll be able to show off some of the features the case had, that I adapted for watercooling.
I'm currently living in an apartment until I finish building my new house, so I am without a workshop to do any new mods I would like. I may go to a laser cutter to have an extra large window made though.
I hope Vega doesn't disappoint. It has been such a long time since I have had AMD and Radeon in a system. Fingers Crossed that they have a good launch schedule, and hope EK and other vendors have waterblocks for them.
This GTX 680 is long past due for replacement. Don't know what I'll do with it. Coaster?
Just did a test to see if my LSI MegaRAID 9265-8i would work in my current system, if I taped off part of the connector to reduce the bandwidth down to x4.
My UEFI BIOS would not recognize the card when running in x4.
I will still try the x4 PCIE 2.0 slot on the CH6 board. If that doesn't work, guess SLI and crossfire will be out of my future, unless a board with PLX comes out.
I decided I needed to upgrade my RAID and pick up a NVMe.
Found a spare RAID card & battery for less than the cost of a new battery and picked up a cachecade 2.0. I'll be able to put my 840 pro's to some good RAID caching use.
Now if only 10TB drives cost can be cut in half, I'll upgrade my RAID10 array.
If I'm going to build my own NAS, I would want to use ECC memory. I think my old 3930k system will do better work for someone who needs it. I'm selling it to a buddy that wants to use it as a server for a charter school they manage the network for.
My C6H is finally shipping. Should have it by Thursday. I also got my battery and CacheCade upgrade for my RAID card. So I also look forward to testing out the RAID caching performance once the new system is built.
In the process of updating windows and getting things setup.
Then I'll be stability testing it first at stock and make sure all my fan curves are set right.
Then get a baseline of stock performance.
I'll then finally start to push this thing.
A side note: My LSI 9265-8i RAID card works in the x4 slot on the bottom. I noticed it is actually electrically 8x, so I guess that is enough to trick the card.
Got her quickly up at 3.8GHz 1.351v (No LLC). SOC 0.95v. BCLK 100MHz. RAM 3200MHz 14-14-14-14-34-1T 1.35v.
Running Intel Burn test AVX on maximum for 10 runs.
Voltage drop per AIDA64 goes down to 1.308 on load.
First Run, max temp of 56c and 118w max load in AIDA64.
