    It seems like Prime Blend already crashes on the first second with a slight OC on the NB as well. I hope with a bit more Volts this can be solved but, yeah, no NB Voltage options

    To highlight the idle freezing a bit more, all of you who had issues with this, did ACC (be it lower or higher) and/or Voltage help anything regarding idle freezing? Because from my experience Voltage helped a bit on the SB600 but sooner or later it froze up anyway. Sometimes after 30h but when I play a game sometimes within 5 minutes, and that's not doable. With more Voltage I could only extend it a bit but it's still unstability in the end. I still didnt have a chance to play some with ACC, but if anyone has experience with ACC + idle freezing I'd like to know before I waste weeks to solve idle freezing like on the SB600.

    If it's not possible to get the idle freezing wall higher, Ive a chip for sure It's alreayd freezing at 3Ghz, Im not sure if it also freezes at 2.9Ghz but as long as it doesnt happen I cant be sure. Still congrats for AMD to make this SB750, it does a great job anyway.
    looks like i fixed my idle freeze on my particular cpu (hasn't frozen yet in over 24 hours; but still testing). ACC is now at (top to bottom) +4,+2,+2,+2. try that. i can do 3.2, but having some heat issues, so need to sort that before i bump the volts back up to stay at 3.2GHZ (havent tested the aforementioned acc setting for idle freeze at 3.2 yet, only 3.1). before adjusting acc, set your multiplier back to stock, save, adjust acc, up the multiplier (i noticed some buggy behavior on the bios causing a false alarm no post, so i have been doing it this way...). boot in to windows, shutdown. power up, if you POST, go back in to windows and let it sit there/browse the web, play music, etc. to test idle freezing. i can only post with auto, +2 or +4 (so that's why its best to shutdown and then power up to ensure that you can POST from cold boot; once you play with acc, youll know which values result in a non POST, etc., for you).

    flash to 9/19 beta if you haven't done so yet. it helps with stability over the stock bios.

    i dont use prime95 anymore, so cant help ya on that front. i have been using occt. works well for me!

    good luck
