Radiators by open window, outside air temp ~55°F (13°C).

1.325VCore, -0.150 offset.

PL1 & PL2 = 360W.

Hyperthreading on, CEP off.

Lite Load Mode 1, CPU LLC = 3.

Clocks - 60/44/48.

Isn’t it nice when you can cool the bloody thing?!
Very impressive scores!
Can I assume that you have TVB and eTVB enabled? Or is that 60 a manual core ratio?
What P-core frequency do you see if you take a snapshot in the middle of the R23 run?

All TVB off.

All manual clock settings.

6000MHz, Effective p-core clocks were ~6002MHz.

So you have an all-core manual OC that equals the top eTVB single core frequency. Old-school, indeed!
I know your cooling is way above the norm, but I'm suspicious that you also have some good silicon to play with. I doubt that temperature alone would account for those OC results, if proved stable. What would you say to that statement? I mean, every CPU also has a frequency barrier, where more voltage no longer helps.

I did manually chart my P-cores V/F curve, and it appears to be just a slightly above average CPU. I believe one user on OCN said it would probably show as ~SP101 to SP103 on an Asus board.

I really have not pushed it, yet.
 
As you know, I’ve been working with Alex Predator on his 13900K undervolt and desire for better R23 scores. But it‘s hard to guess how much higher his score would be with better cooling. Some CPUs just have this brick wall, no matter what you do.

Two things about CB R23; it wants voltage and cool temps.

And, silicon quality has lot to do with both of those, in addition to the capabilities of the cooling system used.

Sometimes, I wish I had bought KS, but at the time, I did not think the extra 200MHz was worth the premium.

Now, if Intel would release Bartlett... not holding out much hope for that, though.

This coming weekend, the weather forecast is for overnight temps near freezing, probably try some more benching then.

If you are undervolting, how do you know you’ve gone too far? Is it just an instability thing or have you seen any evidence of what BuildZoid once referred to as “CEP-lite”?

I agree. It‘s beginning to feel like Intel are no longer interested in the desktop market. In fact, every big IT/game company appears to have turned their backs on the very customers who made them the size they are today. This business-to-business and A.I. boom is not going to last forever. On paper, Bartlett sounded promising.

Well, keep us posted with your results. It sounds like you’re having fun with your Raptor Lake. The two of you are certainly getting along like a house of fire!
 
But you haven't told us the most important information:
Can it run crysis? :)
I don't imagine you keep your radiators outside the window 24/7?

Never played Crysis, but I imagine it would.

Only set them in the cold when doing benching/overclocking.

In the summer, I have a window A/C unit I set them next to, but that only gets the water to ~18°C. Last winter, I had the water down to 5°C, with only one rad.

I have found, for CB R23 anyway, that it just quits and gives an error.
 
I think these are his system specs. when he got those numbers. Arctucas will need to confirm.

And just between me and you, I think he‘s related to this guy. ;)
Of course, that's it! He's pumping 1.21 GiggaWatts into it. Better be careful or it'll blow him across the room like that giant amplifier did to Marty.
Dr Brown maybe? Cant remeber his name.

Anyway, Looking again, i think you're right, its just his hardware and stuff. Not sure what I was thinking, too early in the morning i guess. Thanks
