    1.7v on air is really asking for trouble. But the way it burned sounds like poor IHS contact. I mean even Preshots dont do that. Heck even the old school athlons didnt do that.

    imo 1.7V which any cooler is asking for trouble.
    both my opty 144's had a mind of there own soon as the volts got to 1.65V

    shame to loose a nice chip

    lol. I haven't been on here in a while. I underestimated this new chip. My venice likes volts around 1.7v I didn't come on here to get flamed. the way I do things is start high and work down. some start low and work up. we are just different. I learned a lesson the hard way and I encourage you all to do the same.
