if LinX is just THAT difficult to pass then i'm just not going to worry about it and go by the other programs (Prime, PI, memtest) cause they all pass without any issue all the time. and like Nub says, LinX does require me to up vcore quite a bit over when i would deme stable through other programs. i only need about 1.43v vcore for it to pass everything else at 4.5ghz where as LinX wants me to put it to 1.47 which just sky rockets temps.

@ 4.5ghz / 1866mhz CL7, it passes Prime95 previously tested upto 11 hours and no hickups, it passes Pi multi on 32m repeatidly with no issue and it passes memtest easily enough aswell all without BSOD at the following:

vcore - 1.44v
vtt - 1.3125v
dram - 1.7v
IOH - 1.23v
PICE - 1.53v
uncore - 2800
link - 7444mhz
ratio - 29x155

cpu - 4.510ghz
mem - 1866mhz @ 7-9-7-24-72-2T

average temps - mid 70's
peak temps - 84*c on core 1, 82 on core 5, 79 on the rest

EDIT: not to mention the only error i get from anything at all is with World of Warcraft. it does get a critical error on a very RARE basis but other than that i don't have any issues.

If that kit is PSC based you will not get tRCD 8 stable over 2K. 7-9-8-20 should be doable to 1900 without flailing VTT after that you may have to go for a tRCD of 10 which is not worth it becasue you will lose access time on random reads until you hit a speed of DDR3-2100 or so vs a tRCD of 9 at DDR3-2000. The sense amplifier in PSC and the newer Elpida variants is not as aggressive as what was used in the now de-funkt Hyper. For sub-timings to start with check this image (tighten only when you pass your stability test).

Be sure to enable extreme 0V in BIOS and turn off OCP to DRAM and perhaps VTT.
