I run my memory at 2.1V 5-5-5-15. I tried it at 4-4-4-12, but I ran into a lot of blue screens, so I loosened the timings.

I run about 40 idle and under load I hit as high as 68. I need to remove my heatsink and lap the IHS on the proc and the heatsink. Should give me a performance boost with regard to heat.

Did you have to increase to 2.1v for stability? I was running 2.0v during testing, then when I was stable, I went down to 1.9v (stock) and still pass OCCT, prime, memtest
