hey Ron we're at the g.skill booth now with kingpin who's got this setup so this is the Robo clock er right we were talking about this a TV Jay's headquarters the other day you've made a couple changes though before we get into all the overclocking key tell me about what you did here versus the other day I put a straight pipe on the back to add a little more drama for the crowd yes so now we've gotten an exhaust basically straight into our faces the system is currently running at 5.6 gigahertz right yep 79 80 XC running 5.6 time spy and I think I don't know what our our goal here is for frequency but we're gonna push it a bit further before that this video is brought to you by thermal takes view 37 case the vo 37 focuses on highlighting custom PC builds with its full panoramic window and tinted front acrylic and our thermal testing the view 37 performed reasonably well when considering its looks focused build which is partly thanks to the airflow design and the removal of a bottom power supply shroud for a balance of looks and performance check the link in the description below for the view 37 and if you don't know what the system is basically quick recap the Robo clock er has this Inlet hooked up to it to a liquid nitrogen tank off camera and that's feeding liquid nitrogen straight into the system it's going through two valves to either the CPU or the GPU and those can be open or closed based on what our technician over here Stu 810 and he types in a value and then they can bring down the temperature to reach that target value he types it in that's right it's like a Formula One team so what are we what's the first step here so the first step is test the limits of the CPU the CPU is good for about 5.7 so I think that's the target I want to check make sure that the CPU is stable can run and then we start to worry about the GPU but focus on CPU first cool okay so we're at five six now what what what a voltage do you have right now we're using 1.5 v core and about two point three five on the VI n for the 79 80 XE so that's why you take it away I guess for the next step I actually 1.5 is enough to max the CPU out it'll do 5700 at 1.5 easy maybe about 10 more degrees I think should get us there what are we what are we operating at right now 50 650 600 temperature temperature about minus 85 but this CPU can actually do around minus 100 so what's on the bat you have a socket heater on the back here right he walk us through I didn't cover that in the original video we had a cover right well the socket heater keeps the socket warm and it keeps the condensation from forming in the socket it's actually really key so I came in this morning and set this up 9:00 a.m. it's been running time spy ever since non-stop not one crash if it didn't have that socket heater this system would have been done a long time ago for sure very cool so we got a succeeded hopefully through this run 5.6 gigahertz we KCBS score man I mean the system can do this no problem very nice so what's what's what's your next objective where you going frequency you next let's try five seven well let's try five point seven the limit of this CPU is a little over five point seven on the best day so if this thing can do five seven I would be pretty happy with that in three seven cache and what are what are you adjusting right now basically I set the ring ratio to 37 and I set all the CPU multipliers to 57 I'm using you know I'm setting all the rage all the cores to the same ratio so using fixed ratio overclocking and this is what the EVGA eally utility yeah elite this one's a beta version but yeah it's it's ru elite utility so yeah Australians let's try five point seven see if it'll work what uh so 980 XE is pretty well known for power consumption any idea what kind of power consumption you're pushing what's the highest power we hit on 79 80 900 watts man 900 watts that's pretty crazy all right sir we're going into graphics test one what's the GPU setup for right now right now the GPU is I think it's running maybe nineteen hundred or two thousand we didn't pull the GPU down yet we want to make sure the CPUs solid system is running good then we bring the GPU down all right so 900 watts or something like that and what I guess while we're waiting for this to run let's go through the rest of the system here so it kind of recap the basics of the Robo clock or what I didn't talk about is why did you call it Robo clock er um that's specifically what's the automated part well the Robo because it sounds kind of like overclocker right and this thing sort of replaces the big joke at work is I'm out of a job now because we have this machine so we're kind of like it's not really an overclocker it's a robo clocker so there's a name kind of fits what's what all is automated I know you have a software set up on the laptop to set the target temperature so we type in the temperature I guess the valve is open or closed based on what temperature these thermocouples are reading here and also 12 volt sensing and loading sensing for the CPU and the CPU so that's mostly the timing the timing of the ln2 delivery like it'll it'll hit fast it'll it'll sustain the ln2 or it'll cut it off depending on what it needs the power so what is it what do you do now no you don't have to poor Alan's here any new hobbies' you know it's cool for the show right I mean it's a little more dramatic than pouring I think it's like the next level but yeah yeah I think it's time for me to take up a new hobby oh no maybe maybe mining who knows something else I don't know mining with this yeah yeah that'd be the next step right like seven GPUs on vows ATP is it'd be crazy alright so other components in the system we're still going through time spy right now looks like it's stable that's good other components X 299 dark for the motherboard I can see that on the back plate what do you have set up I'm assuming all EVGA parts of course 2007 for the power supply 1600 t2 great PSU for 79 80 see I don't can't really beat it and we got the Titan V and G skill tried in C memory ddr4 and the Titan V is modded as we mentioned earlier yes it has some mods on it well one of the easier mods is just the two fans right so it's got a couple of fans on the vrm components then you have a custom block from Robo clock or on the GPU and another one on the CPU it's cool to show it a lot mostly positive response oh it's got a blue screen on what was your okay storing BIOS now I max - 99 dark and basically I'm setting it up for fire strike so fire strike really is runs the best on 16 cores 32 threads so I'm disabling the last two cores on the processor to get the best score if you leave it at 1836 you you get a bad score at first or some load balancing issue in the software or something I think so right I don't think he utilizes all those cores so let's see let's see if it's stable and fire strike give it stable we'll push the card a little bit so you're gonna rename yourself on Hardware bots on 3d mark on all these sites just discussing that like who gets credit who who gets who gets credit for the scores now right are they are they my scores alright so let's put the CPU of 5 7 because we know she's stable what's the highest score you got in time spot I don't remember we did the we also had at 79 80 XE and I think we stopped at I was running all 18 threat or cores I think we had 14 9 for the multiplier for the first two cores than 48 for the rest but I can remember the score eh Steve I bet five seven on the CPU and then maybe let's set 2150 on the card 2150 on the Titan me yeah what's the highest you gotta so I think we capped it out with an offset of about a hundred megahertz we did so we did 200 but I think originally when the Titan B's were new afterburner was reading every offset as x 2.so or divided by 2 or some offset of 2x but yeah that'll be our target what was your highest score alright so for reference for x by when we did our run we were at 15,000 494 for total score just four times by non-extreme graphics we were at 15,000 284 CPU were at 16,000 803 and then four times by extreme I think we were closer to something like 8200 something I've had total score okay so what are you what are you expecting a hit this should be easily be 16 something and like easily mid 16 I think first run total score be nice if we get over 17 yeah that's what I want to see the idea of time spy extreme know I like time spy extreme we liked it because I'm not it's easier for me to work with a GPU them CPU here because I'm not as experienced so it takes a lot of the work off of the CPU you don't need to really do much in terms by extreme right it doesn't doesn't it wicked man it looks better with a straight pipe yeah I think it looks killer just want our camera lines to be frozen over by the end of it they're getting some nice air conditioning over there it's like getting there right so awesome all right so uh so walk me through what we're doing right now you've been running around a little bit we thought we might have a potential short or something on the SSD but you retained that you've never run it this cold really in the lab eats more more for show yeah I mean this is a demo system right so I plugged in in at nine o'clock and it's been running all day and for reference it's like 4:00 p.m. now yeah it's yeah and you can see how much I mean it's ridiculous how much ice is on it it's really a lot of ice so there could be water someplace but anyways let's keep going maybe we can see if we're back fight it back okay so it looks like her back maybe had a bit of a scare with potentially numbs out too as his D short or something like that but after what cycling CMOS and rebooting it's back up it's back up and running so let's uh let's get it running again in terms by offset here 125 percent power target core you're going four plus two hundred offset with precision let's go like this specifically 230 knobs 150 on the HBM - where do you find the HBM - typically first how does HP I'm to do with cold does it really it doesn't care it doesn't it doesn't do well all my cards the tight ends they all overclock higher on air and then when I put them on L into the memory clock will go down what's your highest I'm spy extreme score is my extreme I think we said it as total scores 8245 something like that okay let's see what this can do this looks fantastic I was thinking I imagine like if you did like a case mad was like an engine and at the pipes and like all the exhaust if it looked so cool so we've got time spike strange still running 5.7 on the CPU I lowered it a little bit I set it to five five but I put the mesh at 37 because as you know thanks back shame it's not so CPU defended right can still get a great score with even 5g and then the GPU are offset 213 megahertz which I'm guessing is just a number you pre-tested a know to be stable yeah it's like always like the starting clock but this card actually can do almost 2300 so this one passes and everything's good then I'll probably leave the CPU alone and then just bring up the GPU maybe plus 50 plus 50 on the CBO test it's the last one it's combined neck no there's no combining this one combined an entire spine for killer though AVX workload really tough on the cpu noticed that time spiciness memory intensive as well oh yeah it's not bad they crashed didn't make it so he passed on the GPS 74 43 do you be the stable but so walk me through what's going on right now right now we're trying to calibrate the controller with the actual reading temp that you're saying what's your ideal temperature for the speed you're going for mmm this CPU right now needs about minus 85 real temperature on the evaporator but - what was it it was that minus 60 when I saw it five seven stable man so what do we have for score should be should be nice decent CPU score yep 20k so that's good that's what I want to see it's what snacks I'd try and push the CPU further are you going for GPU let's try this all right so it took a little while but we finally got through a bunch of benchmarking for the CPU score we end up with 20 k plus n times pi that's on a 79 80 XE 5.7 gigahertz which is pretty impressive considering again with era and with a deal it in liquid metal we were doing something like 4.8 4.9 so you have 5.7 with this thing and significantly higher score than what we could achieve earlier so what do you what do you plan to do with this now once copy text ends I mean are you actually gonna use this thing or what oh yeah for sure man I will use this probably for all my benchmark records we're thinking about doing for way next so go after some 4 Way records on 1080 Ti so four-way on an open-air batch I guess with a CPU on it - so you got five total loose right yes yeah his controller has five channels so we can run four GPUs and one CPU and I probably won't use the case I like I kind of like having everything out on the table it's more more suited than my style of benching yeah it makes sense so as always if you missed the original coverage of this thing we've got it on the channel subscribe for more copies ex coverage or just check the link below for this thing because I talked about it in depth and EB jhq earlier this week and Vince thank you for joining me no problem thank you we'll see you all next time
