Do you even know how to correctly stress test your machine? At 4693MHz I get ~90GFlops. That's higher than _any_ person on the 4.5GHz club with HT enabled.


If you guys are so certain 990x is the cure, show me your 4.7GHz+ overclock with HT enabled ~90GFlops. Both of you. Otherwise, you should work on your own skills before making incorrect statements. This 980x is probably better than most 990x's out there.
Well you are right, I cannot hit even 4.7 because I use air cooling so I don't really know about that. I don't know if 990X is better when you pass the 4.5 mark, the best my 990X did was 4.5 ht off 1.368 V and ht on under 1.4 V and stopped there.

Other than that, have I offended you in some way? My post was to suggest to try 990X since you have got another 980X, but yeah, I really don't know if 990X is better at those clocks. How much do you know of me to lecture me of my skills? You should check your attitude. Have a nice day.
