Core i7/X58 Overclocking Thread

[Guacamole]

Great results Guacomole. I have the exact same cpu and mobo as you, could you plz post your bios settings? Im pretty average when it comes to overclocking, but i can follow instruction pretty well, so can you make detailed bios settings- perhaps screenshots?....
Thanks in advance.

Edit: Nevermind, i just saw your post at the top of the page.

What are your ram timings, and what is your cpu to ram ratio?

My ram is 9-9-9-24 and I am on the 8x multiplier for memory..

good work boys

Guacomde what bios version are you using ?

F3

Guacamole your tjunction temperature is not good, it's 100°c for core i7 so your temp is higher than you think. Check the last beta rel temp log.

pinto I here what you are saying but I don't exactly understand on the version of Real Temp I am using it tells me my TJ is 95 so I upped it to 100 and now it seems I have more room Can you please explain this to me?

nice results here !
bu why do you want to change your V8 to a zalman ? and why did you change the stock fan for the V8 ?

Stock fan sucks temps were out of control, the V8 is all that I could find for the 1366 and I always like Zalman the best I have always run Zalman coolers for all my air cooling, plus the V8 is not the best design very cheap..

Update: I am having some trouble on the 20 multiplier (fail prime after 3 hours) so now I have read a little in the other threads I am trying 4.0 at 211 Bclk with the 19X multiplier it seems to be working better but I'll keep you posted....
