This is in contrast to any prior BIOS rev where any voltage lower than 1.35 would fail somewhat quickly. May still ultimately error out but if not, I may try to lower again a notch or two.

All other setting remain the same. Only change was in vcore.

Just a follow-up that overnight one of my cores failed. I am retesting with a bump to NB now. Still, while obviosuly not 100% stable, I never saw this CPU hold this long at this voltage before.

Question for the sages: What typically causes one core to fail in Prime95 while the other keeps chugging along for hours and hours? Any observations or knowledge on this?
