This is not so easy to diagnose and people are reporting some "strange" instability problems (it can pass the Memtest, LinX and PrimeBlend, but fails in SuperPI, or other "strange and unheard" problems).

It is not easy to generalize, but I believe many of these "strange" instability problems are rather related to "too high BCLK for the RAM" than for CPU/QPI/Uncroe (but I agree that this problem exists too). After "the dead of the hyper", there not many sticks in the marked that can run stable @1680MHZ (even with unsafe Vdimm).

An easy way to diagnose the QPI-problem can be to run LinX/PrimeBlend with QPI fast mode, disabled.
My problem is, for example, that i can't get the pc stable with uncore >3000
