  • @princexaine5340
    @princexaine5340 Před 4 lety +2918

    Utilization is due to lack of microcode for the CPU. I had the same issue with the X5470 modded into a LGA 775 socket. Microcode updated and problem went away.
    EDIT: The Microcode needed would need to be given to LTT by intel, as the microcode for this CPU was never actually released. For those who don't know, a BIOS file contains several microcodes for various CPUs that allow the motherboard to communicate properly with the CPU. If it's missing, the Motherboard will do it's best to utilize it, but such as this case, it doesn't know how to use 6 cores.

    • @BYMasterMM
      @BYMasterMM Před 4 lety +187

      This x2, when I was in the middle of installing my E5450 into an ASUS P5Q Pro, it wouldn't even go past POST, but it was able to get into BIOS setup, and I was able to fix that problem by flashing it to a modified version of the latest BIOS using ASUS EzFlash 2 (believe it was called), which definitely confirms two things.
      One, that its a microcode issue.
      Two, each motherboard may have different effects or reactions to a CPU that is not found in the microcode for said motherboard's BIOS.

      Not the engineer but... 7:27, he's staring at the exact ASUS BIOS he needed to be on. ASUS was famous (or infamous if you're Intel) for shipping indev microcode packages with certain BIOS revisions. His first thought upon seeing the correct voltage was to immediately update.

    After watching your video i have the same problems with my Everest engineering sample CPU. I was unaware mine was throttling too but at 90%. I have the CPU in a X79 sabertooth. Mine would default at 1.6V cpu also and would shutdown the system after a minute because it would get so hot. After getting a triple rad CPU cooler it gave me time to figure out how to get this thing stable. Setting mine manually to 1.4V made it rock solid and played games on it for months with no issues. I'm guessing it would probably be similar to yours. Now time to figure out why its throttling. This CPU is also 6 core and hyper threaded.

      Bosstown Dynamics I’m not sure on that one, it is possible that newer CPUs have that capability but it isn’t something I have heard of happening. It is worth noting that processors do have a small amount of data that can be re-written, but that is for micro code updates and that isn’t what the bios initially reads to get the CPUID and initial voltage\frequency\multiplier settings.

    One application the Everest series saw actual deployment was in EVE Online. Since the server code architecture was entirely single-threaded in nature (the roots of which hail back to 2002!), increased load in a single solar system couldn't scale across cores. They used these in two different specific instances. If you had one of the game's legendary multi-thousand-pilot fleet fights break out, the server node would all to its knees. Enter Everest. If you made a request ahead of time for a specific solar system to be reinforced for a major tactical deployment, they would move the system onto the reinforced Everest node to keep the game playable, even if it was only at 10-20% real-time speed due to load. The other use was for the game's main trade hub, which regularly hosts 1500-2500 pilots at any time, conducting thousands of transactions every second. not too far off from its original intended use in trading stocks.

The rumor is that Intel would have released an i7 counterpart to this chip if they had any competition in the HEDT space in 2013.

      @@jamestor6700 it's not that it puts load on the cpu, it just doesn't use speedstep or any of the power management options

      True. The bios usually takes the CPU into a safe mode where power saving features are disabled, sometimes running it on a single core, max speed. So they can run warm in the BIOS. this is done so you can disable these features by entering the BIOS before boot...

      Rapscallion2009 I imagine you don’t want something funky happening while saving BIOS changes to ROM while the system is fucking with power management.

    8:17 lol just like my q9550, I swapped an e8400 with it and the damn thing always showed 84% max usage, years later I realized I needed a microcode update, so I can tell you the same now :P just no idea where to get that, oh and funny thing you could boot the quad on it but windows would freeze and it was a buggy detection, you had to update the bios with it for it to settle down and work normally, what a bizarre way of doing things, nowadays the board wont even post with an unsupported cpu

    Send one to der8auer, he can fiddle with CPU power supply directly and maybe has access to some special oc BIOSes. Would be neat to see this running as advertised.
    Edit: or rather, as rumored. :-)

    my i7 3770 stock runs at 1.8ghz idle ? and ramps up to 3.4ghz when under load is that normal for stock in turbo mode using an asus p8p67 pro board with 16gb corsair vengeance pro ddr3 1.6ghz ram ? with amd rx480

    9:20 Is how I felt when I kept getting ntoskrnl.exe error on my work PC after I upgraded it from Win 7 to Win 10. Updated all drivers and still getting the same BSOD error.

    Of course it's hot, it's using 1.6 Volts!

    I actually still run an x79 setup i went from a 4820k to a 6core 4930k woke it back up. With a cooler master all in one water Im able to run 4.5ghz max and safely 24/7 it at 4.4 the voltage thing is all 2011 cpus the voltage changes every boot if you leave auto. X79 need to manual set everything and it will over volt so then you have to comp for that or add voltage offsets. Upping the pll to 1.9 helps stability a ton

    My old X79 rig runs a Xeon 1650v2 at 4.8ghz daily. There are a ton of them on eBay and most will clock to 4.6+ GHz on custom water. All cores and HT on
