    It does around 41,5k/d sustained average.. #5 of all the machines on WCG (560,000)
    ofc right now it does 0,0.. man this sucks.

    Well you need to bear in mind that mine was specifically designed to crunch, that it does and nothing else. No downtimes, no other tasks taking up any CPU time, x64 OS with little to none background stuff running etc.

    Ahh, true, i use this as my normal pc/gamming pc, but crunching always runs in the background..

    Now my in bios is in Version 0302.
    Same issue here.
    But CPU-Z indicates it's PC2-6400 (400Mhz) memory. So it's 800 memory?
    But why the h*** can I not OC past the 400 Mhz?
    At FSB 401 it boots but freezes at testing.
    At FSB 410 it doesn't boot at all.
    Tried Vcore at 1.30 V (I have L5410 E0, they run at 1.212 V) and MCH at 1.3V.
    BTW : they are 4x2 GB Kingston. Temps are usally at 60-70 C. PSU 1100W.
    So what am I doing wrong?

    NB too hot? What's your VTT voltage in bios? Try 1,35V MCH and maybe 1,86V Vdimm.

    Hello jcool,
    VTT = 1.084V
    tried 1,35 for MCH and 1.86 Dimm. No luck.
    Maybe Northbridge, but will this be hot immediately after boot (as at 410 is doe'sn't boot at all) ??
    hmm, will try a 80mm fan on the NB.

    Usually if it doesn't boot, it's the CPUs not being able to handle the FSB. But since your CPUs are E0 step, this seems unlikely. Dunno, you are the only one with L CPUs AFAIK.

    see with mine i can boot 410 , but it becomes unstable. and if i adjust the Vcore to 1.325 where i want it. when i reboot, it tells me failed overclock, settings restored to factory default, so i just stick at 3.6ghz at 400fsb

    Ok, so maybe we reached the max.
    I'm now at 395, that's 100% stable and has no issues what so ever.
    400 is ok , but not 100% stable, so I stick with 395 and just upgrade my processor in the future.

    Thanks guys!

    try 402 or 405 instead of 401?

    Also test with the multiplier reduced.

    All along the watchtower the watchmen watch the eternal return.

    tried other FSB's as suggested by STEvil, no luck
    I'm a bit disappointed on the OC possibilities and I'm considering buying a i7 920 + Gigabyte X58.
    Anyone interested in a Asus z7s ?

    I'll soon have 2 as well, lol.
    My replacement arrives tomorrow, finally. Let's just hope it's a good enough clocker like my past one was.

    Read yesterday about the new Xeon 74xx 6-core serie.
    Can't really tell for sure if it will also be available for 771 socket.
    However that would shine another light on the Asus z7s.
    Enough future upgrade power available for the upcoming year(s)
    I will stick with my z7s for the moment.

    Hexacores will be socket 603 (or 604? one of those) only. You also need a quad socket mobo to utilize the full potential of these CPUs.. even though they are old tech, FSB266, 65nm and such. I'm willing to bet a high clocked Gainstown (Dual Nehalem) won't be much slower, if slower at all.
    Also 4 of these CPUs will be ridiculously expensive, like in the 20k $ range with mobo and ram.
