Hi Folks,

I know I've been kind of quiet lately, just haven't had any killer results to report...

I see the Vcore some of you folks are running and my chip just doesn't seem to like anything much higher than 1.5v, believe me, I'VE TRIED.

I've been on my "Ugly Water" the last few days and have never seen temps over 50c, so I'm pretty sure it's not a temp problem.
It's not all a bad thing, this chip will do 4Ghz easy (@1.475) which makes it a killer air chip but I was hoping for a little more with water and voltage...

I'm certainly NOT complaining!
I'll play with the IMC a little more tonight, maybe that will help me get more on the core without adding v's....

I did notice my Mobo NB and PWM section getting REALLY hot since I went to water, so I added an Antec "Spot Cool" over the PWM heatsink tonight.

I'd really like to get 4.1/2.7 stable. I think it's doable...

If I get it I'll post some screenies.

BTW: I'm doing this on ambient w/water, I got tired of shivering (hehe).
