Okay had much fun. But i've still got a wall beyond 420 fsb circa 3.9Mhz. I tried upping the NB and Terminal but to no avail. Maybe I need to be more aggressive on terminal as I stopped around 1.34. Anything above 430 * 9 seems to require too much cpu vcore. I went all the way up to 1.475 (temps were still reasonble ~ 67 degrees c) but was just BSD on prime large fets after 4-5 mins.

But I can get 3.8 looking good at vcore under load of 1.376 (about 1.36 in bios with LLC).

Maybe I'll hone the 3.8 overclock and run it for a few days for overall stability. Prime large fets is rock solid around 57 degrees c.

Does anyone know if the current Bios is still over volting chipset on minimum settings? Seems little point reducing them if that's true.
