View Full Version : Killed an Ivy Bridge?

Did anyone already kill an Ivy Bridge CPU? At this weekend's EOS event two died (not mine). I've been booting up at 1.92V with several chips and never saw anything close to death.

So, I'm wondering: have you guys killed Ivys already? And if yes - how?

MY ES 3770K died at 5GHz Linx run on watercooling with 1.5V :) I am hardcore overclocker!

No issues on Ln2 1.9V+ runs, so that is weird death for real.

Killed mine, due to my stupidity. Left the Power on, after a disappointing session. Currently soaking in Rice for the last few days....Maybe will test out today.

But ofcourse Intel can not do anything about the above stupidity.

I wrote it: one my cpu degradated or something like that, no booting OS at default voltage(auto or manaul doesn't really matter) but it still alive )))

Yes I have two that died both retails. One for some reason the Clear CMOS button didnt work and it booted up at 1.92v on air. The other one seems to have stopped detecting memory.

Seems like I killed HTT on Ivy Bridge.

No way I can do Wprime with this cpu 4C/8T.
Instant BSOD when trying.

Seems like the hyperthreading is borked, Wprime with 4C/4T is working ok.
Same problem as the post above :(

As long as all cores are working ok, I will not rma it.
Or they have to send me a better one :)

I had one just slowly stop posting first day I bought it. Nothing hard on it just basic getting to know the BIOS and stopped posting.
New one runs great though. Oh, 3770K.

My CPU just died :(

Srsly no idea why? 4,2 GHz, 1,2 Volt on air. Wanted to clock to 1,4 Volt 4,8GHz with GTL on GIGABYTE UD3H and it froze. Now CPU is dead.

WTF

WTFthat's sucks

is that the one you popped the ihs off of ?

I already changed the paste on mine just been testing on air already tryed 1.4v 4.8 wprime it droped temps from 90c+ to under 80c

hope I get to bench on ln2 tonight XD

Yea that was the chopped one... That sucks pretty hard. Was a realy good CPU.

priming on it ? what happened, spike ? overvoltage ?

der8auer
05-26-2012, 18:02
i got no idea.. It justed died idle while I tried to put 1,4 v on it and set multi to 46.

Which batch do you have?
Even I have degraded two CPU Batch L212BXXX...

Well now I'm thinking about benching Sandy again tomorrow.... My 2 Ivys should be safe in their boxes :D

Very sad for you all, especially for you SoF :( That situation sucks hard...

Sucks to have hardware die when not abusing :(

I'm curious, can you do the new RMA thing that Intel announced recently with that chip?

2.2volts on maximus V formula, killed immediately (not a good chip lmao) but a great keychain!

2.2 V on ln2 or..?

Seems like my Ivy is still working great, tested it again on a Gigabyte motherboard and HT is still working, can someone explain this to me?

2 E.S. ( E1 stepp. )... ok up to 2.1V :D
Didn't push more voltage through them.
No degradation, etc.

Or maybe I'm just foolishly reckless :p

One of the E.S. ( the 6.4G SuperPi 1M chip ) scaled all the way to 1.98V ( probably because it sucked balls, others would do 7GHz Pi 4M with that voltage :p ).

Can't wait to test my retails, gotta get some reviews and articles out prior to that though :( :)

really? I'm having problems killing 3218C's for RMA on air with 1.9V

sof did you already kill your new cpu? wtF!

der8auer
06-17-2012, 18:55
New chips tend to be way better at lower volts, but die easy past 1.8V...mine did not survive 1.84V @6.631 32m...couldn't even scream "fiftynine" or so at the screen as it not even managed loop 14 :p

I had a very nice mount and first time with gelid allowing me wprime 6400+ ~1.776V...just seem to couldn't handle 1.84V on a single core...

That's crap :(

Was that the good CPU you posted in the BATCH thread?

SoF
06-17-2012, 20:12
yes...

I am really no lucky with Ivy...the crappy chips survive long benching but don't give good results, my good chips die with Vcore and LN2 easy after very short time...

Vivi

whats wrong sam its missing celion dion sound track lol.

i just use a 9v battery to kill chips much easier. just put wires from positive and negative then drag the wires over the back of cpu and instant death lol.

i used this method once.. was quick and easy.

i feel really bad about it!

You can remove IHS, replace bad tim... replace IHS (like a monkey or worse)... put the cpu in the socket...
than run the system under cascade (with bad contact it's quite better) and put 1.75v !!!

...it's done, your chip is cooked :D (time to have dinner)

What? I did it wrong?
