Why uncore at x16? I do have it set to a x16, but in bios it is telling me it is x8, and my memory is at x4 My BCLK is 185.5, and my NB freq is 2968, which works out to be a x16 multi. any possiblties on were it is getting the other x2 to add to the x8 in BIOS for uncore. Also I have my QPI link set to Auto and it is reading I guess at 6.6 gt/s in Memtest +86 when I do memory tests, now it I set my QPi link to 4.8 do you think I can cut some voltages off QPi and even CPU possibly?
