Pentium 166MHz!!
I was like "Whoa! 50 seconds on a Pentium 166Mhz?!" Then I saw the '15m' to the left of that, lol
just a noob

guess what's so surprising about this
scooped one up off of ebay i see?

actually got it off a friend on XS. deciding if i should sell this rare chip or not
There's one for sale on overclockers.com right now, or is that yours? LOL
Got my DICE pot the other day, went today to get some dry ice but the only place around here that I can get it just has a sign on the door that says ''closed until spring''. WTF!
So, with a little creative thinking and some big balls I just used crushed ice and a little bit of water. What can I say it got me an extra 100 mhz with less voltage! After a couple runs, I was paying close attention to condensation build up and it was starting to run down so I shut it all down and dried everything up before something fried.
So you can call these results, ''water cooling''

Built an i7 920 for a customer the other day. Ran superpi and got about 14.601 at stock 2.66 speeds. Nice speedy processor
Still have not had time to get some DICE going on the I3 yet, but I did play with the E6750 to see what it could do on air.
Not bad IMO, but I need some better ram as this is just cheap crap ram that doesn't even have heatsinks-
The weird part is after 3.5ghz this CPU requires huge jumps in voltage to get it stable. With 3.5ghz, 500x7, it's stable at 1.3625 Vcore.

Dice run, can't seem to get the temp below -15.....and whats weird is it says -25 in the bios. But there's no way I'm going to get to 6ghz because I've hit a base clock wall at 246. I tried taking the multiplier down but still won't POST, so I guess 5.6 is all I can get out of it.

What kinda solvent you running with the dice? Acetone?

What kinda pot you got?
A custom one from Bartx, this one here-

Mine looks exactly like that except it has a few more holes drilled than that.
Even if it's not ''great'', wouldn't it atleast get me to like -50c or something? I hear most hit around -70c on DICE.

Well, what TIM are you running? Most pastes other than ceramique become insulators at subzero temps. Also, are you running just chunks of dice or crushed? Crushed dice tends to work alot better.
Using ceramique, and the DICE was crushed to mostly powder and tiny pieces. I filled the pot about 1/2 full of acetone, slowly put DICE in because it bubbled a ton at first, then added around 2-3 had fulls until it was bubbling around 1'' from the top of the pot.
I talked to another guy thats a guru for extreme cooling, and he says even with a crappy pot I should have been at -60c easy.

do you have another thermometer? because i wouldn't go by what the computer says, -15 is probably all that system can display. you need a thermometer with a k-type probe or something
Yeah thats what it's looking like. I need to pick one up I guess.
Damn, I was hoping that I was doing 5.6ghz on -15c leaving plenty of room to go more! LOL
I seemed to have hit a base clock wall though for some reason at 245. I lowered the multi to 22, and still was not able to increase the BCLCK at all. QPI and ram clocks are not holding me back, I made sure of that. So I'm not sure.
