Yeah, i think my mobo needs a lot of volts to run 500fsb performance level 7. Its not the new bios though, as it was the same with the previous official F12 bios. I know NB voltage is nothing to do with CPU i was just talking about system stability in general. Maybe i just didnt stress test it properly in the first place!!

Newer chips run hotter ? all a mix of batch, VID, Wafernr ... pure speculation there...
Yeah that is pure speculation mate! Just a casual observation...

Good clocks, but I would replace that Freezer with something beefier... not all core readouts are correct... no matter what program you use... just for ya peace of mind...
Cheers mate, can you add me to your O\C list please? LOL i was gonna try for 9x500, defo need a new cooler for that allthough the Freezer 7 is holding up pretty well, my temps seem pretty accurate TBH but i hear what your saying.
