Here's mine.....8 hour shot

Swifty watercooled.

I can do that too....but I'm not going to for 8 hours

1.525V BIOS set
Blend

i'm a little surprised that you need that much vcore for 3.6 Ghz overclock...i'm at 3.8Ghz and only using 1.45v actual vcore at idle conditions...mine drops down to about 1.41v under load

what kind of cooler are you using?

I probably don't. I am a 3D bencher, this is the first time I've run Prime in years and didn't bother to check for lowest passable vcore. This test was to check the capacity of this loop and if you ask me it's very good for a quiet setup - 6" x 8" heatercore with two 53CFM 120mm fans non-ducted.

the difference could be that i run everest stability stress program and that puts all four cores to 100% while stressing FPU, Cache and system memory...if it passes with that, i am happy.
