intel always seasonal testing only, too luxurious to be my main rig bro.

i'm afraid with my limited ram tweaking knowledge in INTEL thats d max i can go, even 2666 @ 2T is a no go, perhaps sifu owi can shed some lights on this...

will do when i have d time bro, d g3258 is actually in office. d sammy lp ram belongs to my main rig, dont have extra pair to (temporarily) permanently test it.
more details on specs & voltages/temp details mebe?

ah_khoo
here more details.
G3258
Maximus Impact VI
GTX750Ti
SFF450W 80+ Gold
8GB Corsair Dominator Platinum 1866Mhz XMP Profile
256GB Samsung PM851 M2 SSD

Temperatures are around 70+ when on load during the test it failed. Never exceed 75C tho.

4.0Ghz Offset Voltage +0.2
EIST Turned Off, Asus Enhancement Core Disabled.

Urmm that's about it I guess.

hw wise is top notch liao, doubt cooling is d problem. can do a dos based memtest mebe? paiseh, i'm a beginner too when it comes to intel oc...

Its ok. The setting in bios is too overwhelmig for me too haha. Gonna google how to do dos stress test and get back

Has the temperature fluctuate beyond the usual in your Haswell yet?

u can get it from d link below, just create d bootable usb thumb drive & boot from there, usually i run custom test #5/#6, forgot liao. do note that this is very old school way to check ram issue, might not be d case for u (but no harm tryin )

manage to get 4.1GHz with 1.275v under stable .
Before tried, get 4.2ghz with about 1.35v and can get 4.3 4.4 with boot to window but cannot get stable even 1.4v... so give up.

Seems i get a unlucky silicon T_T

G3258+asrock b85 killer+seasonic g-550

(before used enermax liberty 400w, i thought maybe power supply old and unstable but after changed is da same T_T)

Same here.
I just able to boot past 4.1Ghz but with a wooping 1.344v =="
Even with 1.5V cannot even boot with 4.2Ghz == wtf.

G3258+Maximus Impact VI+ 730 Thermaltake PSU
Haiz...

4.1Ghz only can boot with 1.344v
4.0Ghz @ 1.248v
guess im sticking with 4.0Ghz. =="

On air. RAM timing untouched @ 2000 MHz.

m6e is overkill for pentium proc

I think I should get 4790k too.

4690k @ 4.3ghz @ 1.165v.
prime 95 test for 20mins and real temp showed highest temp in C as high as 87c.
H100 is not a good cooler..somehow a normal non liquid cooler(RM2xx like V6GT) is better than it.

you need to delid, and replace the crappy TIM with CLU

for intel ram tweaking, you can always refer to sifu cstkl1

Seems like ur proc bad than mine.
I can boot with 4.4ghz but not stable even at 1.375v, didnt try out limit of proc.
Currently running 4.1ghz @ 1.262v with 68'c under prime95 stress test, low temp thanks to lovely Xigmatek DarkKnight under silent fan mode
(Max fan speed get lower 2'c but not much different ~ impressive hsf effective.)

I got another same rig for my friend, he got the chip made from costa rica than my proc made from malaysia ~
Start get overclock to 4.1ghz smoothly around 1.1v ~ and get 4.4ghz at 1.250v (didnt try the sweet spot) but because of intel hsf, it get 87'c under prime test. (Seems like a nice hsf r really different much with intel hsf)
Finally i stopped at 4.2ghz @1.160v because get safe temp of 75'c under stress test.

I guess I really have a bad batch. Btw here my settings I've done. Now only able boot and stable using 1.3v @4.0Ghz 70C Prime Test.

So I guess I got a really really bad chip right? seeing other can achieve at least 4.5 makes me jealous T_T

Yeah, bad chip i think, i better than urs more 100MHz XD
Really jealous about others get a good chip as my friend lolz

Never posted here so here goes my first. I lapped the IHS yesterday and see a good drop in temps. The convex IHS really makes the temps worse, previously it can reach 80C with this clock and voltage. Oh, I delidded too. Tested with Cinebench R11.5 and those are the max temps. Playing with uncore clock (3.5GHz) but I think I gonna lower those because it didn't make much difference anyway.
