Yeah I always use only 4GB when OC'ing. Then add 8 and retest.

I have improved watercooling in the works as I just know that this chip has plenty more to give and which I am ready to receive

4.4GHz at 1.328v actual in CPU-Z feels so good and just rocks - I am so happy

Thanks so much to you all for all your continued contributions here and I wanted to give this back
Hey man that is a great result! I can't believe how low the vcore is! What is the vid on that cpu?
