Do you have any wolfdale or yorkfield to try it with? I would like to see some FSB numbers with the SIIE.
Yeah man I'm wanting to see the same numbers. Don't have the SIIE, looking at this thread before I push for it
Highest Vcore I've put on is 1.67v real and max on every other voltage the BIOS allowed. I don't have (non-QX) Yorky, they're not available here but have an E8400 yep. It never booted with the 780i on oc, killed the board at 420FSB for some reason, chip is fine. Waiting to see a few max Kenty stable FSBs on 790i before I make any move to play with it. Looking below, there's hardly much separating 780i/790i but for DDR2/DDR3 and 1600/1333 official FSB.



I jumped on SE/EVGA 680i when they released and suffered nightmares over 'em for 5 months, 'aint making that mistake again I heard dinos especially touting the 790i as way better in terms of oc/stability than 780i, so I'm now waiting to see results. Kenty results above 485FSB stable and non-QX Yorky above 420FSB stable are what I'm looking for incl. b/w.

My G0 is Yorky enough for me, 1.36v real / 1.344v load for 3.753G stable stock HSF. 1.388v real 3.83G bench, 1.4v real 4.06G bench and around 4280 max at 1.56v air.

Started at 450FSB booted noproblem at all on E8400.
NB under 50, its about time.
Vcore is higher then what you set in bios...
Great, have you torture tested it yet?
