On the other hand ive tried 1.63v-1.65v bios LLC1 - instant BSOD 101 and 124 in LinX, spread spectrum is always disabled
Spread spectrum makes no difference to OC anymore man.
That is odd, might as well try what you had before see if it BDOSs. I saw voltage degradation at 1.53v and above when i did my review on D1 stepping CPUs. I found that every few days it needed 0.02 more volts after i surpassed 1.53-1.55v. Your CPu might be doing the same because I was heavily stressing my CPu as well. These CPUs just aren't made to be stressed at 1.5v+ with air cooling. Especially not with IBT or prime. I wish you luck man, but 5ghz isn't too hard to hunt for, is it? Either way i wish you good hunting.

But will B3 bios work on B2 boards?
I do not want to tear it down, as it runs perfect, and I do not use
affected drive ports.
They modded a few above as it seems. but normal flash wont work.
