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.

@@bosstowndynamics5488 The CPUID and specifications for the bios are set in the silicon at the fab and can't be changed. Much like how they laser cut certain cores/units in CPUs and GPUs to disable them for lower end products.
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.
The reason why HFT went to FPGAs was because of how easily you can make custom accelerators on FPGA. And FPGAs also come with a ARM processor so you can very efficiently partition your code between the ARM core and your custom accelerators.
Yeah the Everest chips never took off with the traders but there were some niche customers ( we sold a pair of them to ccp games a number of years back as special battle nodes for Eve Online - they disclosed them at one of their keynotes) and they took custom bios / custom imm2 code to run the fans at 100% and special 2u heatsinks. Only allowed a 1 year warranty on them. Still might be able to dig up the x3650 code if your serious on wanting to get them running :)
It's like trying to make coffee in your blender. Sure, it can blend the ingredients and make it into a drinkable potion. But it will never taste as good or be as refined as if you used a coffee maker which sole purpose is to make coffee.
Please stop looking at task manager for Load and Frequency! It's buggy and reports completely wrong values in some situations! Please look at Hwinfo to see actual frequency and load values! It's a lot more accurate
Idk how he hasn't figured that out yet, it gets really bad when using older hardware with modified bios settings, ive seen all kinds of weird stuff happen
The utilization is showing under 100% because the Chip is being throttled by PL1, and windows 'misreports' the utilization because the chip isn't at full speed. yourspeed/4.6ghz = task manager. its dumb.
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...
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. :-)
you can't put custom spun cpu's in a board that has no bios profile/ID's/microcode for them and expect auto to work, you have to manually set the voltage, clocks, and most importantly current/wattage limits
@@jeffreythelad8398 Because it's unoptimized like hell. That's not the chip's fault, it's the fact it's a nonexistent product. If it actually came out anywhere then Intel would have supported it properly and you'd be able to run it competently. You can't expect things to work properly on OTS hardware if you aren't even supposed to have it. That theoretical Intel Larrabee GPU is the same story. It doesn't actually "exist" as such so you can get bare-bones functionality out of it but it'll never go beyond that without Intel willing to help you run your illegitimate hardware.
Clock speed shouldn’t be jumping around? It absolutely should. Windows power management by default sets the governor of the CPU to “on demand” which dynamically changes the CPU clock speed and voltage in order to reduce energy usage and heat. When probing and testing mystery hardware, anyone that knows what they are doing would be using Linux for it’s probing and tuning capabilities. As usual, Linus shows that he doesn’t have a clue when it comes to hardware. Why would anyone expect a non-standard non-consumer CPU that was purpose built for a modified motherboard that allows for a CPU with a higher than standard power usage to work with a standard consumer operating system such as Windows on a standard motherboard?
Would love a followup of this, I'm pretty sure that by asking around some mb vendors or digging through extreme modding stuff (Anthony is the man) they could get some interesting info out of this
"I have been ripped off on ebay again" In other news, it's getting cold outside. Seriously though: How did you get ripped off? You bought an experimental CPU and it kinda worked. I mean what more can you expect, especially since you just threw random mothball components at a bleeding edge CPU.
Yeah, i was thinking the same, did he really expect it to work with his hodge podge setup to start with ? I know he's not that dumb so it's just click bait, kinda pathetic really.I would of been interested in the CPU without the bullshit.
@@TheBoyChur Who's angry ? Why are you so angry that i commented a different opinion from yours apparently ? Go buy yourself a crown and proclaim your voice the only one with value.
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.
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
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.

"How did I get into the bios"
absolutelynotmeirl
CPU: Is made of silicon
Linus: I N T E R E S T I N G
What if the IHS is actually fake?
Possible, but has it ever been a thing?
It wouldn't cause so many issues in the OS, it'd just run as designed whatever was under the hood.
@@bosstowndynamics5488 The CPUID and specifications for the bios are set in the silicon at the fab and can't be changed. Much like how they laser cut certain cores/units in CPUs and GPUs to disable them for lower end products.
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.
The_Cosmo the IHS has no effect on the CPU, but you could write whatever you want on the IHS and trick a consumer.
If it is a fake, it's a very impressive fake. Needs a delid.
The reason why HFT went to FPGAs was because of how easily you can make custom accelerators on FPGA. And FPGAs also come with a ARM processor so you can very efficiently partition your code between the ARM core and your custom accelerators.
12:37 They should have edited an X-Files Sound in :D
"No hyperthreading."
so um someone should go tell the engineers down in the exploit recovery group about this chip
I would laugh very hard if they knew about the exploits years ago and they didn't do anything
Even Pentium 4 630 has hyperthreading. 😂
Eric Ramos Did you mean: Security Vulnerability?
@@NoTraceOfSense I don't think one less logical processor would cause any security vulnerabilities. 😐
Linus:- *cringes * it ideals at 60°C
My laptop:- That's cute.
Clean/replace your fan
Yeah the Everest chips never took off with the traders but there were some niche customers ( we sold a pair of them to ccp games a number of years back as special battle nodes for Eve Online - they disclosed them at one of their keynotes) and they took custom bios / custom imm2 code to run the fans at 100% and special 2u heatsinks. Only allowed a 1 year warranty on them. Still might be able to dig up the x3650 code if your serious on wanting to get them running :)
you could possible send them a email, then again the chances of them keeping the processers after 3 years isn't high.
@@hunterbear2421 Theres no way that Linus got rid of this fuckin COD Black Ops proc that was little more than a fairytale before the video

"okay custom...."
*mini heart attack*
"okay lat's just leave it to default"
How did you get ripped off? You didn't even look at the CPUID information to figure out what it's supposed to be!
It's like trying to make coffee in your blender. Sure, it can blend the ingredients and make it into a drinkable potion. But it will never taste as good or be as refined as if you used a coffee maker which sole purpose is to make coffee.
I think he did, but it wasn't recognized so wasn't mentionable.
@@LordZordid Instant coffee, crushed ice, and milk in a blender can make a pretty good coffee shake
I was thinking the same thing!! That's why I had to thumbs down this video :(
@@samin90 I know. But I didn't mention that for obvious reasons.
No running CPU-Z to see what it actually is, just relying on Windows' reporting? That's not particularly good.
In the ebay listing it says that CPU would feature a 250 TDP. I guess the VRMs on that chinese mainboard aren't really happy about that..

If Linus ever runs out of thermal compound he could just run the cpu through his hair.
You know, hair gel is sacred for linus, and also for me. But for *sinners* like you, it is too much _technological power_
@Brayan bow to the *hair gel power* _insert omnipotent linus here_
@@sidebazooka6900 You know you are supposed to put the gel in your hair and not smoke it.
@@Mason-gz3tl oh no
Wait, so would that mean that...
Linus is using thermal compound AS hair gel?
That explains... nothing.

Please stop looking at task manager for Load and Frequency!
It's buggy and reports completely wrong values in some situations!
Please look at Hwinfo to see actual frequency and load values! It's a lot more accurate
Idk how he hasn't figured that out yet, it gets really bad when using older hardware with modified bios settings, ive seen all kinds of weird stuff happen
The utilization is showing under 100% because the Chip is being throttled by PL1, and windows 'misreports' the utilization because the chip isn't at full speed. yourspeed/4.6ghz = task manager.
its dumb.
7:38
That is one of the most dragged out self promo merch Linus has done.
This whole video feels like a conspiracy
From my experience, the CPU is not "idling" in bios.
the bios does put a slight load on the cpu
@@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.
probably like Win98 before installing "Rain"
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. :-)
you can't put custom spun cpu's in a board that has no bios profile/ID's/microcode for them and expect auto to work, you have to manually set the voltage, clocks, and most importantly current/wattage limits
Why did you never actually say that you were "ripped off" in the video?
Because there was no ripoff and it's a bullshit clickbait title.
The cpu says it is 4,6 ghz and he never got the cpu to actually perform at 4,6ghz
@@jeffreythelad8398 Because it's unoptimized like hell. That's not the chip's fault, it's the fact it's a nonexistent product. If it actually came out anywhere then Intel would have supported it properly and you'd be able to run it competently. You can't expect things to work properly on OTS hardware if you aren't even supposed to have it.
That theoretical Intel Larrabee GPU is the same story. It doesn't actually "exist" as such so you can get bare-bones functionality out of it but it'll never go beyond that without Intel willing to help you run your illegitimate hardware.
It's called clickbait.
@@DROOtoob
There was. He got nowhere near the advertised performance, meaning it's probably forged or something.
13:11 Damn, that's a smooth jump cut/skip/etc...give a raise to whoever did that!
Its literally just a jumpcut.

Inhonia haven’t seen any sign of that being the case.
Bored EdIsOne The h series processors are significantly better than amds h offerings in every aspect.
Clock speed shouldn’t be jumping around? It absolutely should. Windows power management by default sets the governor of the CPU to “on demand” which dynamically changes the CPU clock speed and voltage in order to reduce energy usage and heat. When probing and testing mystery hardware, anyone that knows what they are doing would be using Linux for it’s probing and tuning capabilities. As usual, Linus shows that he doesn’t have a clue when it comes to hardware. Why would anyone expect a non-standard non-consumer CPU that was purpose built for a modified motherboard that allows for a CPU with a higher than standard power usage to work with a standard consumer operating system such as Windows on a standard motherboard?

Would love a followup of this, I'm pretty sure that by asking around some mb vendors or digging through extreme modding stuff (Anthony is the man) they could get some interesting info out of this
6:40 The wide-angle lens made Linus look like the Hulk! hahahahahaha...
buying a non-retail, experimental CPU from 6 years ago with no promises made by the seller what so ever: claims he was ripped off.
duh
Imma start selling these so I can get money, works really well on Linus.
12:37, we finally have episode 2 of Haunted Hardware, nice
"I have been ripped off on ebay again" In other news, it's getting cold outside. Seriously though: How did you get ripped off? You bought an experimental CPU and it kinda worked. I mean what more can you expect, especially since you just threw random mothball components at a bleeding edge CPU.
Yeah, i was thinking the same, did he really expect it to work with his hodge podge setup to start with ? I know he's not that dumb so it's just click bait, kinda pathetic really.I would of been interested in the CPU without the bullshit.
@@traitoR142 why are you two so angry? lmfao chill, go buy the cpu yourself? :)

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.
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

*Do the connectors pop like a little Lego?*
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.
