Well I was able to do this after my fear of 1.40v was removed by Erocker.



Anyway this was not stable in OCCT. I had to up the power to 1.4750v. So my final stable OC of the 1090T is as follows.

3.91@1.47v with a max temp of 39c.

So what do you think guys? Seem safe for 24/7 use?

Have you tried upping the cpu/nb voltage? I dont like to go over AMD spec, dont know if its the same with the x6's 1.425 ?

Will be posting some results of my PII x2 550 unlocked to a x4 B50 when I get some thermal paste, no bloody computer stores round here :(

While we're kinda on the subject of voltage on the Thubans.. Having some trouble pushing mine and wanted to get some your guys thoughts. 1090t... having trouble pushing it past 4.0.. i'm at 1.4875v Seems stable to use but it's not quite prime stable. Been toying with different mulitipliers and bus speeds but all different combos seems to put me around this same 4.0 limit. Looking for the highest 24/7 OC I can get, so the real question is.. being on water should i be worried about going in the lower 1.5v to say 1.53v range 24/7 as long as the temps are in line (say mid to high 40's under full load) May hopefully be able to hit 4.2 with those voltages which was my ultimate goal for 24/7 but i'll settle for 4.0 as long as it's stable and you guys ease my mind going in to the 1.5v range to make it stable.

1.55 is the max. However I try and not exceed 1.5v for temp reasons.

I just unpluged it from the mobo and didnt see any draw backs ;)

Time to hide that clump of wires :rockout:

As for the CH3 vs the CH4.... Ummm not on the x6 it's not the same lol.... Ill take a few pix of the bios.... its a new learning curve for sure using an 1090T x6 cpu... the voltage thing is weird as F&@k imo :pimp:

Wait.. Unplugged what? :confused:

Don't be concerned with the other voltages. It still works the same, but of course your six core will work better with it.

Like I said, firewire. Firewire is an interface like USB. If you have no firewire devices you don't need it. Disable it in the bios so that Windows doesn't bother installing a driver for it.

you suck!!!! :slap:

whats up man? why you down grading?

I play with stuff a while then move to the next thing. I just bought a phenom II 550 87.00 and a MSI twin freezer pro 250 512gb for 85.00 after a rebate, with a free game. After I sell my 480 gtx and my x6, I should have 557.00 to throw back on my Visa making mama happy. Also for what my computer is used for I won't see a giant drop in performance. Check out my for sale thread hell of a deal on a super cpu.

You disgrace the TPU forums with the very thought of a "downgrade". W1zz should ban that word and infract you for such disrespect.
