So have you thoght about using ARCTIC Silver MX2

Yeah check out my post from last night see my temps
MX2 good for 2 months
Heatsink must have unseated, did not see any evidence that it did, but TIM just does not fail instantlly

 

[grunt_408]

i do use MX-2

Thanks cp I will give DRAM 1.66 and see what happens if that is a no go I will play with the IOH.

no problem bro. Also your QPI, might need to go higher. For my settings I use 1.35v.

Here are my settings, the basic stuff. The voltages in the bottom screenshot are what it reports in windows. Notice VTT is as close as possible to vcore. How ever my vcore under load is 1.34v exactly as vtt. VTT should be equal or less than vcore, never greater from what i've heard or it causes instability.

However, what puzzles me is that you don't have known stability issues, just your runs are not performing as good as they should be. ANything maybe running in the background? I dont know.

Yeah it has got me stuffed It is a fresh install of win7. I will adjust the QPI other than that I will have to just put up with it It is still boatloads faster than my old E8500 so I am happy with it. Maybe the RAM is not making love to my motherboard properly hehe Thanks for helping cp

EDIT: My D0 should not require as much as C0 in voltage though I will give it a burl

yeah man could be, try another install of windows. I had a buggy install of vista once, did it again and it was fine. Its a bit of a hassle though, don't know if you wanna do it or not.

Installing the O/S all over again is no problems for me I might try again with vista and see how it goes. I pulled the heatsink off and cleaned re applied TIM ect. I will run memtest overnight aswell to see how the memory is holding up.

My E6750

My i7 I think that once I get better cooling on it so I get go a little higher everything will fall into place

 

[Chicken Patty]

good job craigleberry, that run on the i7 looks still slight slightly off, but muchhhhhhhhhhh better

I think it has a little bit to do with heat (after the ambiant temps rise) the and the other factor possibly my ram running slower than spec. Like I say I reckon it will all fall into place when I get 4GHz.

big improvement dude What did you change?

 

[grunt_408]

I updated bios to f8f and played around with the voltages CPU-PLL is now @ 1.84 seems to have helped a bit. I also rebuilt the RAID0 array as it was not as fast as it should have been.

very good. Glad its coming together nicely Keep me posted.

somtimes a BIOS update makes a world of a difference.

Threw in my Ballistix for these runs. Its so cool seeing FSB @ 2000 Mhz.

updated. I get my e7200 running tonight
