    Yea, knowing this makes me a lot more reluctant of buying a 1155 setup, if prices on 2600K is somewhat acceptable and people seem to be able to reach at least 50x cpu multi without prob (ofc high vcore might still be needed for some samples but not the way explained here that it wouldn't do it even when feed sth like 1.5V+ to it).

    I can understand if the bclk limitations were just a limitation of the design and then they offer these 2500K and 2600K CPUs for overclockers to satisfy those (even if it's not as good as all CPUs incl the very cheapest ones would be overclockable but yea it's perfectly understandable why there's no 2300K from a business standpoint but that doesn't mean I like it ofc) but the varying usable max cpu multi differences between the samples of even the same model regardless of vcore feed to it something I have very very difficult to understand.

    If all people would share opinions in an objective manner, the world would be a friendlier place
