can I pitch in my two cents? :D

With today's hardware you can downcore/downclock/undervolt and still have more power than you need for anything you do on a daily basis (regular usage/gaming). Benching is a very fun sport, but stable at 5.5 Ghz? What are you trying to do bro? :laugh:

ah, i have no need for that much, if it isnt achievable with water,harmless volts and average temps!:D
but i read of people, that gamed at that speeds, for a short time, during an ln2 session, just for the lulz! :D (or epeen? who knows!:laugh:)

Im running the HTT at 2.6ghz at 1.25v and the CPU/NB (mem controller) 2.6ghz 1.26v

Is that all right for stock? The CPU is at stock speeds, im not oc'ing till i get everything else right.

The actual NB is at 1.3v

I find VDDA to be good at Auto because it keeps it low at stock and increases it at load. VDDA is to do with the difference of voltage at stock and load right?

yeah that seems fine but your going things a bit backwards, you need to clock the cpu... find the clock your happy with and as for the HTT and NB, well play around with that later :cool:

oh your using the PII 955? drop the HT link down, you wont benefit from having it that high, the Mem NB is the sucker that will make the best difference. on my 965 i was able to run 2800MHz NB @ 1.11v

Cp hit it straight on with that comment, I turned this 1090T 141 watt into a quad 94 watt with a slight bump to the clocks and 1.20v's stable :eek:

I'm sure I can drop the volts down even more, but I'm just going on the settings I had my 965 C3 set at... being an E0 Revision im sure to get closer to the 1.10v :pimp:

Good idea i think ill drop the HT Link down, btw my motherboard supports up to 5200/2.6ghz that was the only reason i really had it that high.

I need to get the board stable first before i can oc i want to make sure its only the cpu that is making bsod's or whatever when i start to oc it. Instead of having to manically tweak lots of settings to get an oc stable like i did before. It just says Auto so i have to set everything myself it doesn't detect and set default settings.#

EDIT: Its stable at the settings i posted so i will just leave it at that and tweak voltages as needed when i overclock, then when i get the oc perfect i will see the CPU/NB.

Ah its nice to be able to go into the Bios and just set whatever cores you want on or off.
So when you getting your 1090T CP and what mobo you pairing it up with?

I just ran Intel Burn test, Stress level set to high, 10 runs and max temp hit 21c

965BE C3 settings...

All of my settings are below. 1 month stable.

It's 79f in here today so my idle temp is a bit above normal. My CPU/NB voltage isn't indicative of what it should be at for you. My memory controller isn't very good, so I beat it with voltage and water cooling to behave. Also my RAM is stock 1.8v, it's not the 1.65v stuff.

...and I posted this in the wrong damn thread. I'll keep it here anyways.

Sweet, finally I have some one to compare notes with :rockout:

:laugh: I won't be messing around with it much, but I'll keep you posted. I bought Paul's combo, he only had it for like a week or so, he got it stable to 4.3 Ghz @ 1.4xx volts I believe.
