Would you rather see highest stable clock at a given voltage or lowest voltage to be stable at a given clock? Or highest clock below a certain temp?

I don't use water, only air or LN, but this cpu and it's ranges seem perfectly suited for water cooling.

Be great to see highest stable @ 1.34-1.35v - that seems to be the upper limit for realtemp temps 65c or less. Thanks!:cool:

mrcape: if you'regonna test stability on air then please do highest clocks at anything below 1.42v.

Here is mine Stock voltage well allmost, 1.200 in bios 1.180 in Windows.

Havnt primed it cant see the point as I play games, ran 3Dmarks 06 in a 20x loop then played Age of Conan for 3 hours on 1280X1600ress 4X AA and no crashes, temps idle for me are 42 deg per core, 48 to 51 underload and watercooled.

I will push it more once I get my Rampage Extreme RMA'd this clock is on my Maximus.

No, everything is being recorded correctly... when people say C0 or C1, they're referring to the revision in CPU-z.

Whats the general opinion on MAX safe volts for the 8600?
Is everyone still sticking to 1.40/1.45 volts.

Can you discribe what your watercooling consists?

It's normal water cooling & ambient 20C:D
