BCLK 235 / PCIe 130 with GIGABYTE MB

I have used 4770 cf and/or single card setup for all test . I dont know the affect of VGA on maxbclk. I will try Nvidia also.

for max bclk vtt 1.55-1.65 result was same(have tested all voltages) , Vcore:1,55 , Vioh :1.3, rest voltages are default but I talked with hicookie he advised to try lower ioh.

Pci-ex speed was 129.7 . I dont know why but 129.7 was the best I have tried up to 135 mhz


I think affect of the cooling made this
235 with stock cooling
237 with better cooling than stock (akasa nero -performance is terrible)
242 with ln2

yeah i mainly use 1.57v Uncore, IOH is actually best for me at around 1.26-1.28v. I've been using 117MHz PCIe but i can use up to 126MHz i think or maybe 128Mhz cant remember.............didnt seem to make a difference

as you said you can run uncore even higher which is very encouraging for high NB speeds

i also found CPU Skew 500ps can help in some situations ~when fighting for the last MHz


i've run PCI and PCIe Nvidia card
also single and Xfire ATI 4870

have you run 3D
what is your highest bus clock stable in 3D?

i'm at around 229 with this chip benching everything and 232MHz for 32M SuperPi

I havent got any screenshot for 3d and other benches.
I have run 3d06 at 233 only one and cpu completed whole test . I have not tried higher bclk's for 3d .
