Finalizing my stability tests and will post it later on
Just saying I'm impressed with my chip so far
Thanks EF - been priming at 450x9 for about 90 mins now - the small room I call an office (play room really) is like a sauna!!. Prime is now on the 560000LLi @ 12k FFT loop so looking good so far. If this works then i'll try again with CR1 command rate, breaking 11k read speed on Everest now so things are moving on. I never thought this was possible and was about to try X38 !!! but it seems that CPU & NB GTL's make the world of difference. Once I have this nailed i'll rip off the stock cooling and kit it out with Thermalright H/sinks similar to Vega22.

What S/W are people using to capture screen shots ?

Excellent work with your E8600 BTW . So what CPU will you use for gaming - quad or dual ?

MnM - will post my bios settings in the morning once Prime has completed some more hours. Some of the voltages are midway between EF's and yours so might not run as hot. My auto Performance Level is 6 so I really don't know how this is worked out as we have similar hardware unless it's due to you having all the memory slots populated.
