I'm not sure if you're replying to me or just saying this. And I have no idea what your last sentence means.
Yeah his post was rather confusing. But the 1.4V for 4Ghz part is hilarious. Those aren't good chips - especially when people are using vdroopy boards to do that as well.
PhilDoc - that link isn't working anymore :(
Yeah the other day. I have read that article and it's great, proper GTL tuning is instrumental in getting high fsb stability.Quote:

Read the article myself as it was about 65nm chips. Nice article though.
This is the reason I'm sticking to <500fsb (9x) OCing at the moment. I'm too lazy to figure it out myself, but I'm sure mr.cape has enough data from his own testing to formulate a guide :DQuote:

Where art thou? Hmm, based on what I've seen lately from your posts, I'm gonna stay away from you. You seem to want to spar or push and belittle less knowledgeable folks that have ideas to share. I don't wish to participate in discussions like that. I would like to stay on the subject and see a Database built by E8X00 users. I don't get into the side show stuff, I'm 30 years old man I get tired too easy.Quote:

To show off a bit... well I think it's good.
Overclocked a 780i board... think I can get more?
1.35~1.36VOLTS FOR 4.0 ! Thats more like it nice score too ;)
One of my chips could run 1m at 1.17vcore 4ghz. They are beautiful chips really, but just please be careful going up. Or at least take notes lol.
Bunch of young guys here huh? :D J/K... I'll be 51 in about a week.Quote:

700/1000 on the GT's
Compare link in my sig.

why no reports of new intel xeon ?
INTEL Xeon 3110 3.00/1333 6MB BOX for example.....
its voltages specially northbridge. i noticed it when Ocing too. try upping =/-nb voltage. found it depends on timings and fsb speed. so if not enought nb voltage it acts up. so try a bump up n seeQuote:

OK as things have taken a turn for the worse with these chips - I have decided to remain well under 1.4v how does this look, this is about 6 hours stable.

:confused:
Seem safe ?
Oh man I am so tempted. According to google it's available from some Canadian retail store for $217.Quote:

It was a good question and I am sure this thread will move along anyways:rolleyes:Quote:

Hey Nama, that's an interesting thought. Thanks for sharing the info and glad to hear you got your stability back.
For the record, in my case a re-flashed bios and a fresh windows install didn't cure anything. I was really hoping it might, but nope. I do have another P35, P5K-Premium brand new still in the box that I could try, but not another DFI. I'm also going to try a fresh kit of ram tomorrow night.
Im still testing my 745A576 as well though I have not found any drop in performance yet after about a month and have been pushing it past 4800 for brief periods. My test system has a killer cooling setup with seperate loops for chip and card which helps but theres more to this Im sure. Im currently at 4510mhz at 1.46v bios,CPU PLL 1.50v,FSB term 1.30v,NB 1.40v,SB 1.05v,CPU-GTL 0.57,NB-GTL 0.61,CLK overcharge 1.00v with the ram at 600 running smooth. Running Line Load Cal disabled works better with this Wolfdale then my Quad which needs it. I just ran this ten minutes ago.
