Can you boot 3GHz at stock (1.3V) voltage?
And to nag you albit more, have you checked the max ref Ht you can get? Mine tops out at ~270MHz where the 9600BE did up to 285MHz. (on 3-07 bios).
Also I found the higher the ref HT the lower the possible max nb frequency can be.

Let's see..., for 4th time I'm gonna try reply to you guys.

Well, here it's the same, if I change CPU multi in Genius main page, no CPU-VID in CPU Feature page. What I was trying to say is, changing one at the time, didn't affect multi after booting Windows, because I was running at BIOS default, after CLR CMOS, loaded BIOS default, so CnQ was AUTO, and affected the multi setting in Windows, setting it at 12.5.
CnQ disable I can change CPU multi or CPU-VID to 15, and booted like that.

Yes, I can boot to Windows, 3000MHz default Voltage, in fact I was able to install Vista x86 too. But now (some hours ago) I'm facing IDLE lockups, only replaying here was enough to lockup 3 times in a row.

Maximum HTT was 275 at 11 multi, very unstable, enough to boot XP. 307 bios.

His 2800/3000 results are too slow. Wprime depends on CPU clock speed highly and his 3000MHz 32M is slower than my completely non-optimized, normal windows, AV/FW/FX/CPUZ running in background ran 32M at 2800MHz: http://img81.imageshack.us/img81/1269/2800wprimeav2.png

Here's my old 3000MHz run, its far quicker: http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/465/wp323gds4.png

And I've just ran my 2828 again [NB is stock, just changed it in CCPUID before to set on boot], its still fair bit quicker than his 3000: http://img214.imageshack.us/my.php?i...primehdid6.png

Which is not possible. His clocks are lower than 2800, his 3000 result looks like 2700. You have another DFI bug to sort out

But he has a very low stock Vcore, he has a lower TDP, higher binned model which should clock better than ours.

Hehehe... Tye that runs was 1st 9850 boot, BIOS on it's default as I explained above ( I guess

), multi changed in AOD, no reboot at all.

Maybe yes, system is running slow at 3000MHz general use, need couple secs to open this forum main page, not normal.

I got some EVE stress test at 1.37v, system is more stable, at least I'm still writing

Yesterday manage to boot 3100MHz at 1.34v, did CPU-Z Validation, lockup, end of story, tried 3200MHz, system boot, Windows load fail, I didn't wanted go over 1.36v, 1st CPU day.

, played some HT/NB/MEM at 3000MHz, IDLE instability. Went to bed, getting pissed off, grrr...
Gonna play a little more today.

Have you or RGone test 8.87?

8.83 it's OK too, can be used /f command, 8.90

Have you more info about temps at 1.25v?
I haven't read all the new posts, just went straight to here for reply.
