That is quite the difference. What do you suggest then? Bios, CPUz, or load?
I will update the list as soon as we get this panned out. I will also add VTT and any other columns that we deem necessary.

Here is my stable settings, does WCG stable for 9hrs and almost 1hr on all cores count? =) (different tasks)
Thats 3843mhz 183x21
I strongly suggest every user reports what the load Vcore was during testing to the best of his knowledge, that usually means CPU-Z, Everest etc while running the tests. Now I have never seen such an "overreporting" problem as on the DFI x58, so usually CPU-Z and Everest should provide accurate numbers.
Load Vcore is the value usually used for comparisons sake, because what you set in bios can be anything from higher to lower than real (most boards undervolt, some overvolt, few are spot-on), also most boards have a substantial vdroop between idle and load. Finally, on my DFI, the idle Vcore is actually a lot lower than load because EIST is working properly with manual Vcore as opposed to Asus and GB mobos, so the only choice that makes sense is load Vcore really.
DMM measured > readout ofc but not many people have the eopportunity to read the real voltages with a DMM, even around here.
I would love to do a DMM Readout, but do not know where on my mobo will show my my vcore =P its a Gigabyte EX58-UD3R

@ MisterMagoo
Pls update the first post if possible for people to know what template to use. Because in a few days you post is somewhere on a page and can't be find anymore. Otherwise PM the OP to pls update his first post.
I'm glad I mentioned the issue about different voltage reports. After reading some reactions it seems everybody had his or her own interpretation which leads to misunderstandings.

On the short term I will try to get 210 x 20 stable. Then I will make a choice between 212 x 19 or 210 x 20 OC. The advantage of 212 bclk is that my RAM runs at 1700Mhz (8-8-8-24-1T) but on the other side with 210 bclk my CPU runs faster and RAM could get tighter timings.
Will also try to get a 4Ghz setting stable with HT enabled. Tried that today for a bit but seems it needs a lot more vcore then (like 1.42v under load in CPU-z). Should I try to increase QPI/DRAM voltage when enabling HT?
Here's an update on my clock:

Bios Voltages:
CPU = 1.40625
VTT = 1.375
As I mentioned in another thread I'm having memory issues, but hopefully I'll be able to get them straightened out.
Just got my 920 3836A772 and so far it's a winner as far as I can tell. I've only put it together on the test bench, turned off the speedstep throttles etc, and put the Bclock at 200. It booted with everything else default. I have now been running memtest for the last few hours at BClock of 180 with everything default except for the ram voltage at 1.64.
Looks like a winner!
Can you people also post the Pack Date with your Batch # please...Thx!
Rerun it, it probably has more in it I just need to tinker with the voltages I guess.

My batch is 3836A772. I've now passed 2 passes of memtest at 200x20, with everything on auto, except for the speedstep etc being disabled.

I was thinkin shouldnt we add the uncore clock speed to the sheet as well?

Hell, he means bclk instead of QPI indeed. Crap, now I reported wrong value and multi.

No, that is correct. QPI is the same as bclock. It has replaced the FSB (as us i7 owners know).
bclock and QPI arent the same. bclock is the base system speed for the processor, QPI could be a 36 40 and 44x multi of the bclock...I think those are the choices in my BIOS at least.
So yeah, QPI can be different for everyone depending on the multi they use for it.
Also, what about uncore speeds should we list that?
If we wanted to be most complete we should put bclock, QPI bus speed and uncore speed.
Hmmm EVGA techs have described it otherwise...I think you are talking about the QPI link speed...but I see where the confusion comes from. We will just call it bclock or bus speed from now on.
We can add anything we want. But the problem is everytime we add something previous entries become incomplete.
I think if we post the following data it is as complete as possible. This way everybody should be able te reproduce the provided settings on their own machine.

IMO if you have the qpi multi you dont need the frequency of the uncore but thats nit picking :) nice clocks btw
Thank you Bobbylite!!!! I think your right with the multi and all. But we have to take in account that there will be some n00bs as well who want to try OC'ing and maybe don't know that MP (QPI and Uncore) x bclk gives them the frequency.
Moreover my P6T-Deluxe doesn't use MP but I can only choose from determined frequencies which raise when raising the bclk. Therefore other people have the opporunity to select the same speed instantly.
