    I found that adjusting the GTLs to +50,+10 gave me 9 hours small fft stability (which I stopped), whilst anything lower or higher conked out after 8 minutes or less. This was also tested twice on each setting, so I'm now much more confident this is the correct one for me.

    I've now pushed up to 405x9 which is pushing my memory a little more, but I know it's stable up to 1233 so hopefully I can begin to encroach on my old 410x9 on 1.4625v setting I had on the P5B.. At least I'm close, with faster memory speeds
    So far 405x9 failed on the 4th core (which I know is weakest) with the same vcore, so am currently testing with 1.45v which has improved so far.

    410x9 is still crapping out on me even at 1.5v so I would ask for any suggestions on how to approach this speed.
