    Friend: Do you have a spare PSU lying around?
    Me: No why?
    Friend: My PSU just blew up, I think the second 8800GTX might have been too much for it to handle
    Me: what PSU was that again?

    Thank you GUYS,,,,

    My Mobo is hard to follow my CPU due to FSB limits...
    I know that an aircooled system without mods and on stock chipset cooling cant perform like F1, but i believe next week i'll be ready to raise FSB over 550 and get more juice of this sweet CPU i have...

    SUB 10 SPI is Broken and i am Happy for this...

    Take a look of a sort history..(Dont ask me for loosing DDR timmings because this was my limmits for now)...

    1st TRY......


    2nd TRY.....
    I was ready to hit my head on the wall....



    3rd TRY and .....



    Sub 10 sec SPI is history...

    My MB hit FSB Wall at 525 - 530 MHZ and cant go further..
    I know its Chipset temps problem.
    In about 2 weeks from now i will get ready for watercooling.
    Until then i ENJOY 4400 - 4500 MHz 24/7 use and i think its ok for now....

    This mobo should be able to do 550-560 on air with default NB voltage without any problem. Probably you meet a CPU fsb wall.Lower the multi, dont let the NB to be hot from high voltage and give it a try again. If with one core enabled u manage to get more fsb is probably CPU fsb wall.

    btw, Dag ... is that a "goodbye AMD" thread?

    First of all my wafer NR is ***91...

    2nd) I dont think its CPU FSB wall because i can ΒΟΟΤ at windows @ 550 but loose USB - Random BSD - etc....
    3st) Chipset temps is way off and need Better cooling...

    I believe i cant go further even with CPU Watercooling and the ONLY Way is to HELP chipset cooling...

    I must give the CPU to a friend with CASCADE and make some WRs with this DIAMOND....

    Now i am trying to gain MEM performance at 4500 MHZ...



    I hope in a few weeks to Return back to my roots ..... (AMD PHENOM)...

    Damn good result , even under water my chip so higher result . As far as i understand 66c is your load temp @ 4400 mhz . At this frequency your cpu and voltage (1.29v) your cpu should eat 110w .
    Assuming ambient temp 25c u get 41c deference , this is already 0.37c/w (witch about right for your current air cooler) , under water u should see a nice improvement about 40c (processor load) .
    2600K working in 4.8 GHZ so far

    2600k @(4600 Ghz) 1.42v : (under water)

    Disappointed by my Q814, needed 1.35v to boot, only SPi 1MB stable. Changed it with Q805 which is much better, 4200Mhz@1.38v load prime stable.
