you should be doing 6-8-6 with that ram

I tried raising other ones in the past, and they didnt seem to help at all.

Its right at the edge of acceptable temperatures with 100% load at 4.2 Ghz anyway, usually around 85 for one core and 82 for the others (I believe that <85 degrees with 100% load is fine as nothing else will stress it that much anyway). I just thought that I might be able to squeeze it up to 4250 Mhz. It was vantage stable, but not Prime or video game stable.

Also my graphics cards were Vantage stable with a whopping extra 4 Mhz on this board over my previous 1066 Mhz . 1075 Mhz fails. 1050 Mhz is doable for 24/7 use, but too noisy.

So 24/7 clocks are 4.2 Ghz CPU, 1600 Mhz Cas 7 ram, 1000 / 1445 on the graphics cards. I were expecting my graphics card's ram to fry at maximum speed, but its fully stable and the heatsinks on top of the chips only get moderately warm. I wish I had a way to OC the GFZ ram up to 1500 Mhz, it hasnt even reached its limit at 1445 Mhz, and FPS improves all the way up to that speed so error checking isnt kicking in either.

Improvements over my UD5 - Much lower voltages required, and cooler slot 1 gaphics card from the spacing. Before my top card was running up to 10-15 degrees hotter than the second, now the difference is just 2-3 degrees, which is what I wanted. So I'm happy, it just needed the 0602 bios to get working properly .
