set your vcore to 1.58 to be sure and rule out your problem, but you are probably just on the edge if you can get there.Quote:

All on ss cooling, seem like 3 batches need less vcore comparo to L0 batches
when disabling the cores you just set the multipliers at 0 right?Quote:

I don't know if you can MANUALLY choose which core is disabled by setting a multiplier to 0...never thought about that...I would think there is a minimum multiplier allowed, though?
So I take it that the 3101A201 with the SN# closest to A1499 would probably OC better? I haven't checked the local MC yet, but I think they still haven't sold out the tons of 2600K CPUs with the usual batch I have seen for the past three months or so yet. And even so, I may still not be able to buy one until my 14-day "Day Between Purchase" expires, which should be another week and a half. What a stupid policy, they are here to sell, so why care who buys how many times as long as they have the money to spend, right? That's the stupidest policy I have seen yet.Quote:

c3 70c
Batch is 3103B302; Costa Rica.

Its 50/50 chance, a friend got A1491 and its clock the same.Quote:

Can someone chime in on how consistent temp is among all the cores for the Costa Rica-based batch when idle? I know the Malaysia-based batch have a very consistent temp when idle (ie: core0 28, core1 28, core2 28, core 3 28). When stressed, each core may have a different temp.
SO? Any results? :)Quote:

Damn heat problem :( just booted up X56 and lower bclk

ahh 2 cores active... need dry ice or ln2 now :D seems same problem with X57-X58 to and this chip are crazy
did i get rare chip :)??? seems so but to hot it is on air
looks like a very good chip, at least ice it down so it wont burn up maybe no need for ln2.Quote:

OMG!!! I'm going to kill myself for sure. Just exchanged an L051B138 for a 3103B332 and it's not even stable at 4.6Ghz using 1.350v (the B138 was completely stable then)!!! It's getting worse!

Sorry about the luck you're having.
I got up on my feet, gathered my courage and took that suckee CPU back and exchanged it for yet another same batch with a different SN. This one is at least stable at the initial 4.6Ghz using 1.350v. Max bootable into Windows is 52x @1.550v, but far, far from stable. It would BSOD almost instantly when Prime95'ed. Tried 50x100 using 1.50v, but seems like it's not stable either with "processor [x] stopped" message. Not worth using 1.550v for a 5Ghz speed (heat and CPU life degradation). Man, CPU binning is the flakiest thing I have ever done. Never have so many bad luck in my entire life!Quote:
