[18th Anniversary] Asus Black Pearl - P5k-Premium Testing Report

Thanks

Paste is Artic Silver Ceramique.

Good news was it hit 8 hours stable in Orthos!

Now to see if I can bring the temps down...

I'll post my BIOS settings in 5!

ps. I noticed TinTin only goes about 15/30 mins in Orthos! Is that really enough?

Good news - I ran my e6600 24/7 at 3.6 with 1.5v idle 46c from when I bought it up until I sold it. If you can reduce temps by applying some of the suggestions all the better but I wouldnt get excited about it. Lapping will give the most no cost temp reduction benefit if ithe IHS is not even - if it is even/flat when checked with a razor dont bother as you will get minimal if any gain.
TinTin was posting an initial assessment of the boards capabilities for our benefit so he didnt do full runs - I am sure he could have run it prime 8+ if he had wanted to.
