Hello there,
I've finished my rig recently with i7 3930k. Since I couldn't fined the appropriate Sabertooth x79 owners thread, I'll have to ask in this one ( aand probably this will be yet another same type of topic everyone discussed a million times). I've OCed it currently to 4.7ghz
1. Is 1.4v safe for 24/7 use ? CPU idles at 0.85v, under gaming its around 1.37-1.38, under full load it goes into 1.39 ( 1.388) to 1.402 and fluctuates between. Temps under full load : usually 76-78 on cores. Highest I've seen was 81c on two cores yesterday, but that was in a room that had ambient of 30c.
2. Any super guide on Sabertooth x79 OCing, since it's not as popular mobo as RIVE, it seems there are less info about it, but I couldn't resist a 150$ less pricetag for similar performance? I've seen some people claim to lower the vcore by upping the bus and lowering the multi, but is there a specific trick to it ? My system don't seem to like the 125 setting at all, to the point of self-resarting right away.
Thank you
