Bought yesterday a dud, L042B243 2600K, thought it would do decent coz, was it Dumo? who got it to 58x? Mine wouldnt go past 5ghz, and it needed 1.52v to be vantage stable. :(
Now I have a new one, L108B066, but I don't believe in good batches anymore.
Same here, Dumo found a 58x awhile back so I went and bought one, boy, was I unlucky! It wasn't even stable at 5Ghz either, even up to 1.550v. :shrug: That's why I gave up now, not binning CPU anymore.Quote:

i stick with my batch does x53 easy and needs a bit more vcore to x54 and im stable on 5GHz at 1,428 loadQuote:

Odd, both my 2600K's wont even do 4.5Ghz unless the VccIO is set to 1.100v is this a bios issue or a mobo issue? Im using F4 bios.
Probably found a better one right nowQuote:

Something's wrong...VCCIO is supposed to affect memory, and small FFT tests the CPU and cache...
I havent tested it at 4.4Ghz, actually I when I got my mobo UD4-B3 i went with F4 bios right away. 2 chips wont budge at 4.5Ghz unless VTT is 1.1 A friend of mine with the same setup went with F3B and has 4.7Ghz on all auto. So I tried F3B and left everything in all auto and just removed the power saving thing. So far its been running smallFTT for the last 15mins fine.Quote:

This blows, 4.5Ghz with 1.360VID and - 0.025v offset gave me a BSOD after like 9hrs in Prime95 Blend with 124 error code.. What could be wrong? Is there a faster way to check for this.. waiting like 9hrs and it BSOD's after is just pure bummer!
@little_scrapper
So I manually spread it around instead of using pressure to spread it ?
EDIT:
I tried to manually volt it at 1.360 w/o any offsets this time
Ran 30 loops of LinX ( I dont really like this as ppl say it degrades the processor so fast )
Right now at stock 1.050VTT
Memory at 1333Mhz 9-9-9 1.5v
HT-OFF, all power savings off
All other voltages in AUTO, PLL over voltage OFF
http://i1184.photobucket.com/albums/.../quest_4_5.jpg
On the first page 123 says VTT/QPI so I should be playing with the VccIO right and not the Vcore?
I would need some help in OCing my 2600K, should I continue to post here or just make a new thread?

I have 2 x I7 2600K one can x55 but max is x54 on water, and one that can x57 but here is the max also x54? on water,same voltset must use both CPUs, funny enough:confused:
may be my motherboard will not anymore, have looked a little on hwbot, and again Regt run over x54 in 3DMark tests Asrock xtreme6......
Is Gigabyte UD7 so much better to overclock ??????????
Gigabyte is not better and need more Vcore as other boards!Quote:

Guys, slightly OT but still relating to SB clocking - what are the best 8GB (2x4GB) rams to buy with highest clock and best timings? I had a set of ripjaws-X 2200c7 but sold them to move try a 970 but now Im looking back at SB again.
zsamz - by your sig you own both atm, how much difference is there in benching between a good 1366 near 5ghz with good rams and your SB setup? Im mainly doing 3D11 and 06 with some vantage and the odd earlier fm.
Cheers.
2200 cas7 stuff is one of the top sets you can have for sb;) love my 2200 cas7 pisQuote:

my 920+e760 is good for 5.0 stable so is my 2600k
but my 920 needs phase cooling .2600k needs water
sandy alot easier to overclock n faster but boring
i love the rex best
Cool, sb may score higher easily but then the fun is over, set the multi/vcore and its over, 1366 has alot more tuning options to try to optimise.

Okay so i'm not posting picture since i'm not done yet, mainly got questions...
2600k L048A937 D2 Rev
4.3ghz @ 1.28V @ about 68C on 2 cores slightly less on the others.
Prolimatech Megahalems Rev B
P8P67 Deluxe
Gskill Ripjaws 1333 CL7 (7-7-7-21 timings)
I seem to crap out if i go any higher. Is it possible i just REALLY need to bump up Vcore a lot? Also are these temps acceptable on that Vcore for a megahalems(i got 2 fans on it, some... no name and a 140mm noctua)? PLL is currently auto, i have not tried adjusting.
Any suggestions? Or should i just leave it, i am happy with 4.3 :)
enable pll over voltage and give it some more vcore you should be able to do 4.5 with easeQuote:

Ever tried to calculate costs benching with SB and 1366 ?... with ya 970 you will be rapidly limited by board ( Bclock ) in the 3D department... find a good SB and it will eat ya 1366 for breakfast in benching... only 980 and 990X are still the ideal bench CPUs to due their unlocked multiplier...Quote:

Indeed a SB CPU can be maxed out within let's say 10-20 minutes from opening the box... 1366 can be more fun to tweak, but so is REX and E8600...
Try 54X and use easy tune to find mhz wall.Quote:

So far im runing LinX with AVX and getting 101Gflops and it seem all well. im happy. i still would like to hit 4.8GHz stable, what are alright voltages for it 24/7 1.45v?
@m4gg0t
I did a google search on safe voltages for SB and a lot say its only upto 1.380v loaded, some say 1.40 to 1.45v loaded I guess it really depends on the chip.
I've been at 1.45V loaded for 4 months on some of my chips and haven't seen any degradation but I have heard some do degrade pretty quickly at more extreme voltages.
guess no 4.8 for me.
dare not give more Vcore on water, but it has x57,try with an SS next
it's made as a quick test, no fin tun whit mem.............;)

I recieved what appears to be a new 2600K batch number a few days ago: 3101A298. Absolutely zero google results for this. Anyone else test one of these? I wont get a chance to dig into it until this weekend when I swap out my Lynnfield. Looking for 5ghz at 1.4vcore on excellent watercooling... :hrhr:
5Ghz with 1.4v is a bit hopefull even more with these new batches...
Yeah.. that was drunken optimism. 5ghz@1.5v seems to be a more realistic target. This being said, I would probably settle on 4.8ghz@1.4v vs. 5ghz@1.5v.Quote:

Really nice results there Makubex. I would love to get similar results with my 2600K w/ HT enabled... Cant wait to dive into a nice OC session on my new SB build this weekend.
edit: Makubex seems to have a previously unheard of batch number as well... Makes me even more anxious to check out the 3101A298 that I have.
Thanks, I just got this CPU this past Monday from newegg, so this might be a new batch. I think I'll try 1.37v and see what happens.Quote:

Currently I'm going for 12Hrs of Prime95 @ 5GHz OC with 1.368v. So far 10hrs have passed, so it's looking good.
PS. I have a set of 8GB Corsair Vengeance RAM on its way, I'll run it again once I have it installed.
Each person has it's own preferred stability test, if it plays all my games and folds without an issue it's stable for me... I don't waste my time with hours off silly hardware torture.... I have passed LinX tests with 12GB on X58, yet Bad company 2 couldn't stop crashing to the desktop... if that game plays for hours online, then I deem my PC stable enough as it's CPU, ram and GPU being tested...Quote:

Low voltage is nice for reduced temps and degradation, that's about it.

Plus, I have always liked coming back to a heavily OCed machine after a few hours, and see my stress tests still cranking away.
Makes me go:
I agree with this, I was so obsessed with passing prime blend for 24hrs and I end up pretty disappointed of it BSOD's after 16hrs or so.. but its stable with my every usage. So when I test for OC, MAX of 2hrs primeblend and a lot of low-mid loads using 2-3 instances of Pi at 32M then I game on.Quote:

I wouldn't use BCBC2 as a sign of stability or lack thereof, since many many people have been having issues with this game and not necessarily because of an unstable overclock. Try several different games to better assert your stability.
And many people have passed blend and linx and had issues in other things such as games for example. My point is there is no guarantee, but if it is stable in the things you use your machine for then call it a day, and what better way to test than doing the things you will be using it for on a daily basis.
Let me put it this way. I bet I can grab your BF2 "stable" system and make him BSOD like hell ( well if are in the limit of the system ofc) , let's say a SB at 5Ghz. Then I'll give you my LinX stable system and gl trying to crash it :rolleyes: . It all depends on how you do the tests... If you run 5 passes of linx with 1Gb of ram... ofc it isn't at any time stable...Quote:
