For now 32M pass to 5150Mhz ... i m still Benching but my little son is waking up :p

This 920 Blocked to 237Mhz Bclock on P6t6 and 235Mhz Bclock on DFI X58 DK & JR

Well done Thomas ;) For benching try strap 1333 or 1600; I'm afraid it won't increase max BCLK (or lets say up to 250 :D) but will probably improve stability. :)

I switched to 975 , 1M @ 5.5Ghz ... but i will post the screens after NDA.

My W3540 is coming this afternoon ... i hope it will be as good as slpann CPU :p:

Great!

That 975 sounds very promising. Too bad you can't post upcoming 32M WR to anywhere yet :D

That 920 is very good too.

Very promising but i dont know why it coldboot to -50°, that s very hard under cascade. This CPU did not coldboot on Asus or biostar board ... and 920 doesnt coldboot on classified. I m trying to fix that ! :D

My 920 cold-boots @-40C on Classified; but only @-86C on DFI DK... :)

I tried it on p6T6 but 24X multiplier seems very bugged, i cant hit 5ghz under cold.

My C0 is a very good CPU, better Bclock than my D0 on air. But it s in this 24/7 computer :p: Maybe i will be too lazy to remove it from his hot case !

I'm seeing that you're using almost same settings than mines, btw how much pci-e MHz are you using? Just curious cuz you're not loosing x16 link width... 114 like me?

yes Xavier, i tried all to get pcie 8X like you ... here that never go down to 8X.
My board is the nf200 one but when i see Raja results with both board, his pcie stay to 16X too.

BTW i will start 3540 test under cold, for now i m at max 226 Bclock on air.

Great work:) Looking forward to see 775 results. Happy oc'ing:)

Pt1T, my 760 board is showing 8X link width too with my GTX 280, as was the DFI board. The NF200 showed 16X with this card originally. My 4870X2 also showed 16x in the NF200 board. I have not tried the 4870X2 in the non NF200 board yet, but will do soon and see what it reports..

All i can say , my 950 isnt so good ... 24X is buged and i cant hit 5Ghz with it. In 23X i can screen at 5,2ghz + but the chip needs alot Vcore.

hmmm yeah I am getting the same thing with my retail 950. 23x lets me hit 5.06 3D stable but 24x is just plain buggy :down:

This morning i tested the 975xe on Classified and ln2 ...

I had some issue with 3D benchmark beacause of VTT and QPI PLL Voltage ... both were too low.

With higher voltage value i tried Wprime32 and almost 5,5Ghz done :
