look guys i didnt come/post here to increase my chips value to 2 grand as it has been mentioned.. nor do i intent to sell it why would i wanna do that..

anyways.. was just sharing with you guys a classic oc every step of the of the way: patience/trials/perseverance/brute force all on air.. have been ocing for almost 10 years now.. just cause im not breaking records or better known/trusted like others here.. doesnt mean idk how to oc/am posting fakes

as soon as ill get another cpu.. its the only one i got at the moment.. ill slap on the vapoLS and show you guys even higher clocks
NapalmV5 - I was not implying you came and posted for that reason, so I apologize if that is how you took it. What I was trying to say is that you have a golden chip because:

1 - Your on air and you have low temps.

2 - You are not using much vcore and from what I gather except for the VTT voltage you are not adjusting anything else, which implies that you are not having to tweak much to get the high FSB.

3 - Virtually every post I have read on any Intel quad shows a FSB wall of around 475FSB unless going with something better than air.

4 - You are using mainstream boards to do your testing, not extreme boards like the Maximus II.

I am glad you are able to get your chip to such heights. What I am trying to figure out is whether it is the chip, the chipset or some setting you are using that the rest of the overclocking world is missing. This is why people have asked for you to post your settings time and time again. What I would love is for someone to be able to duplicate the results, but I haven't seen that yet. Please, just post your settings so that someone here can try and duplicate what you are achieving.

Am I skeptical? Sure I am and everyone here should be untill others have the same success. Am I doubting your integrity or skill? Not at all. I just think you have a golden chip and the results will not be duplicated by anyone else.
