It's also a really nice colour blue. I like that colour. This has no functional benefit, but it'll be bonus points if it's better than CLU.

 

Blue sauce. WANT!

Electrically conductive?

 

if it isnt' and it sticks to the heatsink like that...

AND IS BLUE

is this new amazeballs sauce? Do we storm the castles and make OEMs buy out all the stocks? xD

 

I wont know till i put it on my cpu since I have grizzley on there now.

I don't think so since marc0053 has it on his cpu pins...

 

I would wait with bated breath, but I'd probably suffocate. So I'll just excitedly wait.

 

I'm curious , have you had issues with grizzly yet ? I personally haven't.

 

Nope. None so far, but I only put it on the cpu and cpu die. Never on the gpu.

 

@Trafficante is the oldest. But, he's still a great guy.

Wow, now that looks interesting. I'll be keen on finding out how that works.

 

I have it on the GPU for a long ass time now, and the CPU every time i have repasted.
I might have a KM1 coming in in a few weeks, kinda curious to see how well it performs with the VC heatsink.

End of the day, its seems be that it needs a good fitting heatsink, since only a few people have reported issues with it.

 

Prema BIOS is working great, just as one would expect. Memory seems completely stable at 3000. BCLK works, zero spread... it's all good.

 

Is that a Prema-modded MSI? Am I seeing such shining radiance?

I'm thinking this may be the only one. LOL

Speculations of course.

 

That is exactly what you are seeing. Pretty sweet, too.

There is a first time for everything.

 

Nah....It's based on whose hands it's in.

 

Very nice and very tempting. Cruising at 4.8GHz quite easily eh?

So I've heard about the F7. That's very intriguing as well.

Happy Birthday as well.

Cheers

 

Yup, 4.8 is my base ThrottleStop (Profile 4) and validated 5.0GHz with almost no effort. Was just waiting for the Prema Magic to unlock some things so I could up the power limits, etc. Default settings were way low and a lot of stuff (including memory) was not adjustable at all with the stock BIOS. I had no "Current Limit Throttling" like we have been fighting with Clevos, but lots of "Power Limit Throttling" with the stock BIOS, and had no way to increase them properly.

Thanks. It was a very happy birthday this year.

 

Couldn't let them gift him a stock system for his birthday, could I?
That was my little gift to brother Fox.


(This specific model (1080 LGA combo) was actually co-developed by Eurocom and can not be ordered from MSI directly. Only Eurocom and EVOC offer it.)

 

Excellent. Very tempted to get my hands on the 7700K. We should be seeing you topping the charts here soon.

Great stuff Prema. Hope all is well.

Cheers.

 

This is really impressive for such machine size.

I've been away for a couple days and missed a lot. HAPPY BIRTHDAY @Mr. Fox you're a Great Guy who's helped me a lot. I really appreciate it.

 

Looking forward to that MSI 1080 SLI model xD

Your FPS number is like a heart beat

 

They all are when you run the stress test.

 

I feel some interference in the force (cpu frequency). I recommend a pinch of Prema BIOS.

 

Depends what the CPU is setup to do If it's stock it can be related to number of active cores.

 

@DRevan Interference in the force? Pinch of Prema bios? What are you talking about?

 

So what's the judgement? Regular paste is as good or better on the GPUs?

 

Won't know till others post temps, but it seems to be holding steady for me.

 

I was hoping it would surpass CLU T_T

 

I don't even know what the rating is on this paste so no telling there.

Edit:

Definitely not better than liquid metal.

 

I agree in spades.

Happy belated Birthday Mr. Fox

From the Alienware forums now to Clevoland, you have always been one of, if not my favorite, forum member to follow and know. From your direct candor to your BGA rants, it has been a pleasure to know you.

The Tornado is a wicked and deserved gift and props to Eurocom.

 

K|ngp|n Cooling Thermal Paste

Thermal Grizzley conductonaut

 

The difference will probably increase with higher clock speed.
It would have been nice to see this K|ngp|n Cooling Thermal Paste vs. a standard paste as Gelid extreme, ICD and Grizzly Kryonaut. Perhaps an alternative for those who do not use Liquid metal today (not applied from the reseller or they do not dare to try).

 

Looking at the website I do not see the paste available yet. I would be willing to pick some up and do some pre test with IC diamond and then with kingpin thermal paste.

 

But isn't it running quiet a bit (5c+) hotter with the blue stuff?!

 

Against liquid metal, yeah. Kryonaut is the non-LM thing, Conductonaut is like a runny CLU with a higher rating.

 

I will have to go back and try again later. I think I moved it to much when setting the ihs back on.

And when I ran 51 and 52X it shot up to 98C really quick.

 

Overclocking & Temperatures - 7700K

"Out of the box we threw the DeepCool Captain 120 EX on the Core i7-7700K and measured the idle and load temperatures. At idle the CPU ran at 31 degrees and load temps went as high as 77 degrees. The 6700K was then installed in the same system, it idled at 30 degrees but under load hit 81 degrees. I had read reports indicating that the 7700K was a much hotter chip than the 6700K, but that certainly isn't the case when comparing the two chips I have"

Power Consumption

"When it comes to power consumption it looks like Kaby Lake uses a few watts less, not bad given that it's clocked higher but not exciting either"

 

Tbh comparisons between 6700ks and 7700ks and even between the same chips are really pointless at stock voltages. Specially since everywhere we look everyone seems.to be running at a different stock voltage.
Some.people are fine at stock, others are overheating to all hell.

 

I know But much can be fixed with delidding, thermal paste - Liquid metal, customize the cooling better and adapting the voltage for your chips. Not always plug and play

 

true that.

 

Very nice! Always great to see screenies...

Keep in mind that Liquid Metal is not the best for benching as it has a rating of only (10C) <<NOT minus<< (at least with Grizzly Conductoanut).

Whereas Grizzly Kyronaut has a rating of -200C.

If you bench using LM at 10C for an extended period of time, the LM bubbles up and turns into a strange texture. I have a pic of it somewhere that I'll post if I can dig it up.

 

I can guarantee you I'll never have a PC below -10c for any length of time. If I ever use it in under -10c by the time it's been on a couple minutes it'll be much hotter xD

 

10C my friend. Not -10C.

 

Boom!

1000 pages and we lost the OP to BGA...

 

Only quoting you there

 

It's ok we'll get the mods to update the scores for us. We just need to revive @Ethrem

 

Ah I stand corrected....haha...I don't know why the typo...maybe I was thinking of LN2

Thanks

 

I don't think benching under 10C is the biggest problem for us with laptops Perhaps if you are in the garage in the winter like @Rage Set with temperatures well below zero, but the main use of your machine is inside home with normal temp or with AC. Aka Liquid metal her we go
