.. I seem to have been able to fix the issue (well at least stop the hard shut downs). by chance I disabled the current capability in Bios, and now I can overclock without hard shut downs.. easily...

Ok.. this is a recent issue, and hardware has not been changed .. when overclocking i am getting a hard shut down. it happens when the CPU load goes to full 100%.

As an example, If I run at 4600...

Trying the new drivers.. and precision 4.2 noticed Valley ..that the first CPU seems to throttle a little more.. shows loading now and seems to be peaking and then throttling a little.. the second...

Picked up some 2133 1.5v sticks..

Just started tweaking.. could not get 2400 mhz cl9 stable yet.. went to 1.65v.. I decided to take it easy , and loosened timing to cl10... and now running...

Well decided to go for it.. got a couple of hydro coppers.. actually I was skeptical, but the blocks do seem to be performing well.. only 2 issues .. the sticker is poor and ill fitting (thankfully...

Thanks.. shows I haven't posted fro a while.. Think I have it now..

Not sure if its me, but I cant upload any attachments, (cannot see "Add Files" button anywhere when click attachments).. also if I try to upload Image from PC I cannot complete it and get a warning...

I had a leak that I could not find over a 2 year period, in the end it was one of my MCP355 pumps that had been leaking .. actually finally stopped working and was burnt out.. it never leaked into...

Like the ram... Any chance of telling where you got them from.. very interested..

I know.. hence the hyper pi32 .. but from a system perspective , its a good indicator (at least for me)

Not sure what you call stable, but no worse than what I see posted elsewhere.. I can run LINX and Hyper pi 32 OK at 2400Mhz, . not stable yet in LINX @ 2500 ..

These Samsung are great fun.. for low cost Ram.. now at... (correction..) 2500mhz (timings not bad)..

running at 1.59 V Dimms .. for 2400mhz
running at 1.65 V Dimms .. for 2500mhz

... now...

Wow!!... thats exactly the problem.. 1 minute.. fix.. multiplier running sweet now.

Thanks so much .. I bow to you.

I am currently using the 125 strap and yes 1500mhz.. I did try and check cpu z under linx load.. same deal sticking at 12 multiplier. I will check to see if any templates I can use on the settings...

Tried that..thanks disabled both but still not budging from the 12 multiplier.. I am at a loss ...

Help!!

Just installed R4E and 3960.. but while I seem to be able to adjust the Multiplier Ok in bios and shows changed during start up ,, I always end up with a 12 multiplier / 1500mhz.. when in...

I tried these out as well on my R3E, I did manage 2400Mhz... 11,11,11,28 , had to run dimms at 1.6v though, I ran a couple or Linx runs ok. but not really stable

I just used 2 sticks, to see if I...

Sorry to hear the 990X died.. What happened, did it just stop working? or degraded fast?

How come there was a huge latency improvement between:
2400Mhz@9-12-9-31 and 2466Mhz@9-12-9-31.. did a stick drop out

I second that....

Sweet... Do you have copy/ write and Latencies... I am looking for some new Ram.. looks promising..

Correct.. the first Gulftown over 5ghz and 100 gflops... I have gone back and edited.. to make clearer.

Thanks.

Update 3:
Can I be the first Gulftown to Join the: 5GHz Club <Over 100 GFlops> (Sandy Bridge and others)……;)

needforspeed| Core i7 990X [6C 6T] @ 5002.9MHz | 1.640 | ASUS Rampage III Extreme |...

Its taking around 1.38v .. This is the second 990x of same batch , the first did 1.36v.. but got fried with turbo V.

This CPU needs a little more juice, but seems much cooler...:

I have been tinkering to see what the best performance I can get for a potential 24/7 setup,

I wanted to stay close to 1.375max CPU, and below 1.4 VTT, and found I can get decent scores and RAM...
