It is very interesting to see this topic still active after many years. Even a developers (Dufus, payne, me.. ) who were here at the beginning of this operation no longer use those cpus.
Other hand this mod keeps the prices second-hand absurdly high. Thats not ok.
Please go buy Ryzen.
My domain is expired but you can still get those file, just replace "masterofphoton.com" to "https://s3.eu-central-1.amazonaws.com/masterofphoton.com"
like that

@topmysteries5 Something not right. If there is a 500watt gap between idle and load, each cpu must be took 250 watt of power. That's just tooooo much for 12 core Haswell cpu. We're not just talking about the power drawn from the wall, but it's also about heat, a lot of heat.
@topmysteries5 All system consuption can hit 600-700 watt but thats not mean you pass the TDP limit. Check between idle and underload power consumption difference or CPU/VRM power sensor readings.
Im getting 100-110w while idle on wall and 250-260 watt while stress tests with single 2696...
Yea sure but it no sense. Actually cache and SA offset doesn't change anything, we don't have any clue that the cache or SA voltage makes a difference.
Without microcode you can get higher frequencies but without microcode higher frequencies doesn't mean higher performance in all circumstances. Some application doesn't work well without mcode.
Good but -90mv core offset still too much. Heavy test doesn't show real stability, cpu can pass any stress test with -90mv but can be freeze while idle or single core under load . Because core voltage may drop the below 0.6 volt when the processor is idle.
Dual CPU driver test (Should also works with single cpu)

If you want you can load these efi drivers directly from the efi shell for testing.
use "load" command
load...
