I can keep it under 1.35 for 4.0...but it throttles..means too hot already...but 75 only at LinX
around 1.28 can already
Hey..my processor throttles at 73 max...can I off the Intel TM? I can't get it at 4.0 constant

off all thermal settings

I gave up. Currently running 160 bclk with speedstep and turbo mode on... Suprisingly if below 4.0 the voltage is very low...currently 1.136V in CPU-Z with p95 running.
Save some power as well

I am curious because I am running 1.407v on my msi P55 GD65 with an i5-750 at 3.8Ghz (200x19) and a VTT of 1.361v. Is the setting allright for continuous use or i should raise the VTT and lower the vCore? The temps are quite low, around 75C with my Hyper 212+.

Looks like ur vcore is quite high.. mine is 1.17 in bios at 2 pages back
Using same 212+ but with extra R4-C2R-20AC-GP instead of another blademaster(expensive)
65C only at max fan, around 68C at ear safe settings if i remember correct

I mean what should i set? Maybe my VTT is a little low to be stable? Is your proc running at 3.8GHz?

weather getting hotter and hotter... My GPU keep speeding up the fan and lowering it back
I think your voltage is too high for 3.8ghz only

Is my VTT too low? It is at 1.366v now.

Added on January 14, 2011, 5:46 pmActually the Vdroop of my board is very high. When i set it to 1.407v, it will drop to 1.344v when stress testing. It will crash easily if it get any lower. I alredy enabled the Loadline calibration.

crazy vdroop there. something wrong with your PSU?

Actually what software you all use when stress testing?

LinX, Prime95,HyperPi.........

The Vdroop happens in LinX more noticibaly. It only drops to 1.360v in p95. And is p95 stable enough? Or I need to pass the LinX test too?

P95 is normal stability testing. IMO I think LinX is very fast and also pushes the proc to generate more head than P95 can... LinX pushes my 3.5 OC to 62C in 20minutes... Prime95 only can push to 57 after more than an hour

Hi, just wanna share some screenie

i3 530 clock at 4.2GHz

i3 seems like more overclockable than i5...

Really? But my friend once said the highest he can achieved is 4.25GHz. He uses i5 750

perhaps better air flow and ambient temps...

Emm. But he use better air cooling. Prolimatech Megahalem

the best air cooler vs best value air cooler

You can always change to max out the performance
