Don't mess with me! I'm scared even I myself am afraid, I5 overclocking challenge E3

"Journey to the West": It is not a good person to be born and it is difficult to have a Buddha. "Dream of Red Mansions": It is not good to be born. It is difficult to marry someone. "Outlaws of the Marsh": It's not a good student and it's difficult to be an official. "Romance of the Three Kingdoms": It is not a good student and it is difficult to start a business!

To sum up, it is not easy to succeed and it is difficult to succeed. Many people regard poor birth as a bad reason.

It's not scary to be born poor. What's terrible is that you don't know what your efforts are.

When Van Gaal was right in the right of the map, Munigno of the left of the map was only a small translator and assistant.

However, Muninho, who had no sense of presence in the player era, began with a small translation from Barcelona, ​​went to Porto to win the European Champions Cup, brought Chelsea from the second and third tier teams in England to the European first-class team and won three league matches. The champion, who brought years of Champions League innocent Inter Milan to the Triple Crown. Madman's experience is a very inspirational story.

Similarly, there are two CPUs are not good, has been ignored, one is E3, as the low-end model of the xeon server series, can only be downgraded and desktop-class cpu all year round; the other is a common model of the I5, Especially for fliers, for entry-level users, the price of thousands of dollars is quite expensive. For high-end game platform players, the frequency is not high and they cannot be overclocked. These two guys are not less eye-catching

However, with the Skylake generation, the rules of the game have changed.

E3V5 must be used with C232, unlike a casual motherboard like the B85.

And Skylake's BLK overclocking gave cracks, so non-K cpu can be overclocked with the same motherboard and bios

3.2G frequency I5 6500 has been overclocked to 4.45G, you can not say I5 did not work hard

Then, take a look at how strong the I5 is at trying to reach this level. Can you leapfrog with E3?

With the I5 6500 overclocking is the twelve-phase power supply Z170, worry and effort. However, be careful not to upgrade the latest bios, just use the 2.6 version, the latter is forced to remove the overclocking function

The E3V5 motherboard is also specific, based on the C232 server chipset, not only can use E3V5, desktop-grade Skylake cpu can be used like

First look at the cpuz information for a pair of players

So far cpuz still can not recognize the E3V5 completely, it will be displayed as I7 6700, but the specification is that you can see E3V5

Let's take a look. How much worse is the I5 running cpu test and E3 after overclocking? For ease of reading, E3 is on the left and I5 is on the right

1.superpi single-core floating-point performance test

E3 is 9 seconds 6, I5 overclocking is 8 seconds 23, this test is to see single-core floating-point performance, basically, within the same architecture, the higher the frequency, the lower the running points (note that the unit is time). The frequency advantage after I5 overclocking is huge

2.cpumark99 single-core floating-point performance test

As with the above test, the frequency-dominant I5 overclocked, hanging E3V5

3. International chess multi-core multi-thread performance test

When the test is capable of multi-threaded computing, even if I5 is overclocked, I5 can't escape the life of being beaten.

Hyper-threading technology is still very powerful

4. Cinbench R15 multi-core multi-threaded professional performance test

In fact, no test is expected, I5 even if it is overclocking, are difficult to compare with E3 in multi-core multi-threaded. After all, hyper-threading technology is still very 6

Of course, we are more concerned about the nature of the game performance, then, take a look at how to match 980TI

As the current flagship card, GTX980TI is still convincing enough

If you don’t accept it, then let’s run it

5.3dmark11 EX mode

The E3 score is 8528, the graphics score is 8208, and the overclocked I5 score is 8392. The graphics score is 8334

It can be seen that after the I5 was overclocked, the graphics score even surpassed E3. However, due to only four threads, the total score was a disadvantage.

6. New 3dmark firestrike scene EX mode

E3 total score is 8235, graphics points is 8980, after overclocking I5 total score 8125, graphics points 9170

As with 3dmark11, the total score was hampered by hyperthreading, but after overclocking I5, graphics can basically be said to be full of excitement.

7. Valley DX11 special effects test

E3 has only 96.5 frames, and the overclocked I5 is 99.2 frames.

8. Paradise DX11 special effects test

Similarly, in the Paradise test, E3 had only 94.7 frames, and the overclocked I5 reached 96.4 frames.

9. Rainbow Six Siege

The average frame of E3 has 81.3 frames, and the overclocked I5 reaches 83.4 frames.

10. Killer Five

E3 is 94.2 frames, after the overclocked I5 reaches 100.4 frames


11. Middle-earth World Lost Mordor

This time, E3 has overtaken the previous one. After the overclocking of 89.77 frames, the 77.63 frames of I5 are overclocked.

12. God steals 4

E3 is 105.7, after overclocking I5 is 115.1 frames


13. Tomb Raider 9

E3 is 143 frames, after the overclocked I5 is 145.9 frames

Basically, we can see that except for Middle-earth, other game tests are after the overclocked high-frequency I5 counterattack E3, after all, now the game mainstream or support four threads, so the frequency is a little higher. Advantage

However, when win10 and DX12 are implemented, the advantages of eight threads will become more and more obvious. This time the BLK overclocking crack is really good and powerful, but unfortunately it needs motherboard and bios support. This is not what Intel is happy to see.
