    No . I can add my second Thuban, but I need more free time to test it completely.

    Thanks...figured out a way to get things under control. The Asus turbo V software really helped.

    I run 1x360 BIX and 1x120 XSPC all on Sythe GT 1850's. But it obviously is still not enough to hold 1.5v plus. The below run topped out at around 52 degrees on the core. Whats the safe temp for AMD these days?? My ambients are around 23-25 degrees.

    Here's where I am . 3 hours prime 4.06 ghz. Set to 1.385v in bios. With load line went to 1.41v in CPUZ. CPU NB at 2.7 and ram at 1800 CL8



    Next up 4.2 Ghz.

    Without load line, the board tends to under volt a lot and that kills stability.

    Oh, I see. In the future make sure to mention that it's a new entry / chip as otherwise I have no way to know. The only reason I asked in this particular case is because the clocks were lower. I'll hold off until you're ready if you still need some time with it first.
    Particle's First Rule of Online Technical Discussion:
    As a thread about any computer related subject has its length approach infinity, the likelihood and inevitability of a poorly constructed AMD vs. Intel fight also exponentially increases.

    Rule 1A:
    Likewise, the frequency of a car pseudoanalogy to explain a technical concept increases with thread length. This will make many people chuckle, as computer people are rarely knowledgeable about vehicular mechanics.

    Rule 2:
    When confronted with a post that is contrary to what a poster likes, believes, or most often wants to be correct, the poster will pick out only minor details that are largely irrelevant in an attempt to shut out the conflicting idea. The core of the post will be left alone since it isn't easy to contradict what the person is actually saying.

    Rule 2A:
    When a poster cannot properly refute a post they do not like (as described above), the poster will most likely invent fictitious counter-points and/or begin to attack the other's credibility in feeble ways that are dramatic but irrelevant. Do not underestimate this tactic, as in the online world this will sway many observers. Do not forget: Correctness is decided only by what is said last, the most loudly, or with greatest repetition.

    Rule 3:
    When it comes to computer news, 70% of Internet rumors are outright fabricated, 20% are inaccurate enough to simply be discarded, and about 10% are based in reality. Grains of salt--become familiar with them.

    Remember: When debating online, everyone else is ALWAYS wrong if they do not agree with you!

    Random Tip o' the Whatever
    You just can't win. If your product offers feature A instead of B, people will moan how A is stupid and it didn't offer B. If your product offers B instead of A, they'll likewise complain and rant about how anyone's retarded cousin could figure out A is what the market wants.

    Looking good! Noctua NH-D14 cooling, 25c ambients, censor on different room so here might be even warmer cause cpu warms a LOT!
    1.475 for CPU from bios.. actual stress-voltage on cpu-z.


    And here is the final result. Ambient temp started falling after i just opened my rooms door, so the air could chance! No cold air or anything.

    looking good if you click the link in my sig it shows voltages i needed for clocks ranging from 3.2ghz to 4.3ghz (which will obviously be different than yours) but more importantly it shows my temps at said voltages which might give you some insight. my water is also listed in my sig, both rads using 100+ cfm fans for those tests though

    Hello, a question:

    Right now I test my new 1090T, it is currently stable at 4GHz with 1.44 v, and wanted to know, how much is the maximum voltage recommended for use 24 / 7.
    I've been looking for, and some say it is 1.50 v, one that is 155V, but I clarified.

    Greetings and Merry Christmas to all!

    Is NB multi locked upwards for Phenom 1055/1075?

    Hi guys.

    Currently I have a Gigabyte 890FXA-UD5 with a 1090T @ 3.8GHz, NB@3000 and HT@2000MHz, the voltage are: 1.325V for CPU, 1.150 for NB and 1.375 for CPU/NB. Some people has tell me that run the CPU/NB with a voltage above of CPU voltage is dangerous, Is that true?.

    Then how did this happen??? It's obviously a 15X multiplier on the cpuNB.
    I think FlanK3r meant those non BE-processors, which have locked multi.

    This 1100T seems to like overclocking better than my 1090T did. Don't read too much into NB or memory clocks as they're relaxed for CPU clock testing. I was stable at 3GHz NB for instance at 3.8 GHz, but 4.0 GHz was a wash at any voltage. Relaxed NB and 4GHz was doable at stock turbo voltage (1.45V)--maybe even less (I didn't check).

    Particle's First Rule of Online Technical Discussion:
    As a thread about any computer related subject has its length approach infinity, the likelihood and inevitability of a poorly constructed AMD vs. Intel fight also exponentially increases.

    Rule 1A:
    Likewise, the frequency of a car pseudoanalogy to explain a technical concept increases with thread length. This will make many people chuckle, as computer people are rarely knowledgeable about vehicular mechanics.

    Rule 2:
    When confronted with a post that is contrary to what a poster likes, believes, or most often wants to be correct, the poster will pick out only minor details that are largely irrelevant in an attempt to shut out the conflicting idea. The core of the post will be left alone since it isn't easy to contradict what the person is actually saying.

    Rule 2A:
    When a poster cannot properly refute a post they do not like (as described above), the poster will most likely invent fictitious counter-points and/or begin to attack the other's credibility in feeble ways that are dramatic but irrelevant. Do not underestimate this tactic, as in the online world this will sway many observers. Do not forget: Correctness is decided only by what is said last, the most loudly, or with greatest repetition.

    Rule 3:
    When it comes to computer news, 70% of Internet rumors are outright fabricated, 20% are inaccurate enough to simply be discarded, and about 10% are based in reality. Grains of salt--become familiar with them.

    Remember: When debating online, everyone else is ALWAYS wrong if they do not agree with you!

    Random Tip o' the Whatever
    You just can't win. If your product offers feature A instead of B, people will moan how A is stupid and it didn't offer B. If your product offers B instead of A, they'll likewise complain and rant about how anyone's retarded cousin could figure out A is what the market wants.

    Running up against some sort of hard wall. I can do 4030 at 1.45V and pass 10+ hours of OCCT, but 4100 is a bust at any voltage, NB clock, or memory clock within seconds to minutes.

    Mid-50s? Nah, that's pretty comfortable. We're talking about +70 MHz here.

    A load core temp of 55 or so is typically where Phenom II's, including the X6, start getting unstable.

    Sure, you can run 60-65 (maybe) at stock speeds but who runs that slow?!?

    Do you have 80+ CFM of exhaust fan(s) on the case to go with that?
