    Looks like internal NB Timings have been relaxed as performance is worse:

    BIOS 07/14:


    Settings are identical except for Vcore and disabled EIST/C1E. My previous 24/7 stable OC wasn't stable anymore and currently I'm trying to find the reason.

    It seems to be stable again with stock Vcore and Special Add 100.70%. Although performance is worse I could not lower Vnb, seems that CPU load on NB eats up everything. Currently, I'm not impressed.

    // Edit
    Still not stable...


    // Edit
    Stable but still slower:

    As performance now is on par and I can run auto Vcore I'm quite happy with it.
