Don't know if this helps at all but worth a shot. To bad your board doesn't give you a hand overclocking the memory.

Of course soon or later i will buy one but what i meant is that i won't exchange a SR-2 for one of those.

I'm with you on that, but won't be buying the X299.. It looks good but it has odd performance according to the reviews.. Not sure why or what is causing it either... That said, I'd like to try and track down a SR-X but I don't believe there's any form of overclocking on that board since they stopped that from the SR-2 if memory serves me correctly... Shame really...

Thanks for the advice @phill, i was already checking on Amazon :laugh: but i will save the 700€ that it costs for maybe another SR-2

I'm in agreement @Knoxx29 as I'd rather the SR-2 over the X299... I personally feel the newer Intel CPUs are just such a pain with the cooling and such.. Having to get them de-lidded etc isn't much fun I don't believe...

I've not seen many SR-2 boxed around for a bit now...

Is the voltage tuned? I've seen many 4.5GHz at 1.3v. I personally have a 4.6GHz at 1.4v.

Looks pretty decent :) My 5960X manages 4.5Ghz about 1.12vcore for CB 15.. I'll have to dig out the scores, cos I've got no clue lol

Does anyone have an E5-2680 V2?
I just got one today finally, and it's idling at 45C, so I want to know if this is within a normal range or do I have to fiddle with voltage settings.
It just seems a bit high to me.
I'm using a 240 A.I.O. to cool it and all (6) fans in the case are running around 2,000RPM.
Room temp is around 20C, so I would expect the CPU to be around 30C at idle.

Stock speed or overclocked?
I have 1680-v2 oc'd to 4.4ghz idle temperature between 35c-40c full load 65c-78c with 280 aio cooler.

I have a 2680v2 which I run @ 1.160v with BCLK @113Mhz (3.5Ghz on all cores). It idles at 25c and never passes 50c on full load. I have a Kraken X61 cooler.

Turns out a repaste and pulling the perspex front of my case dropped the temp of my CPU to roughly what I expected, damn bling hampering performance :laugh:
