Foxconn Bloodrage-Quantum Force- -X58- -Retail-

I did some more testing yesterday. I found the limits of this CPU.

Setup:
Foxconn Bloodrage
Intel Core i7 965 (week 36A)
A-DATA 1600X (Micron D9GTR) this kit is designed for X48, but I use three of them.
Foxconn GTX 280
Thermaltake 1200W


Here is 32M at 4970MHz:


32M is scaling directly with CPU speed now. Tweaks are getting less and less important, so you can do these pure MHz runs easily.

What was the limiting factor. Your QPI is low. Your voltage is low. Presumably you have extremely good cooling system. Was the limit temperature based?
