Then you probably didn't find your optimal MCH Ref.

you guys are amazing, the fatal error final results was xxxxxxx, expected xxxxxxx in prime95 is due to the temperature

i changed to a ek supreme lt and temperature droped a few degree, but i still get core 1 and 3 higher than 67 under 1.4v @ 4.4ghz

so i try lowering the vcore and as the temperature drop, it gives more successful tests in prime95

but because i am not putting enough vcore, bsod come soon

so now i changed the block, and am going to the rad's fans

i am using this

http://www.coolermaster.com/products...ate=36&id=6037

and

swiftech mcr320

the dba is actually sick, it must be louder than that

so do u have any suggestion on fan that isnt louder than this and can lower the coolant temp more?(closer to room temp)

there isnt much choices in hongkong but please still suggest and i will go looking for

thanks

I'm using scythe s-flex "g" fans on my mcr320. They're not too loud. Although I do have them on a controller so I can turn them down.

Well, the scythe fans have sony-made fluid bearings which will last a lot longer than the coolermasters, especially mounted flat (like on a radiator). I never have tried your fans though, so I can't really give a honest comparison.

OC Nub,

First: Congrats on that CPU, is a monster!!!!!

Second: I just looked at your everest numbers at 4.5GHz /500FSB / 600MHz DDR2, and compared to my 4.2GHz / 467FSB / 560MHz DDR2, and it is strange that my L2 cache bandwidth in everest (its where the 2x6MB cache is) is higher? How can this be? I think we have the same setup, only I have Asus board and you have Gigabyte... Is that normal? Would care to post that everest bench at 4.2GHz / 467FSB / 560MHz DDR2 for a comparison? I sure can't clock my CPU at 4.5GHz!

tkx.

Thank you.
You order the 9600 GSkills?
Marcio: I am not sure why the numbers are lower there either. If I get time I will test at 4200mhz this weekend. This is another test I ran, similar results as before.

Amazing job OC Nub and andressergio...I have no idea how you're getting 4.5GHz...amazing. Could you two please post your BIOS settings? Mainly the voltage and mem settings.

Nope, the ocz blade 9200s. I couldn't stomach the $159 price for the tridents or the pi. Thes were $85 with free shipping. Every single review I've read says they will do 1200. We'll see.

I was able to do 1200 with that set but had to use the 4:5 divider which limited me to 480fsb. Still a great kit especially for that price. I hate paying 150.00 for ddr2 also.
