You mention WCG. When I set a machine to run WCG I look for that sweet spot between high voltage and high overclock.
When I set up the SR2 last year with the X5680's I could run 24/7 100% load at 1.35V with temps in the low 60's.
Now I could also run that system with 1.4V at 4400 and still within what I consider safe temp margins( 65C max)
but the increased elec draw for work done wasn't worth it.
For testing I did push that machine to 4600 with 1.4v using WCG and it was stable with temps right at 65C
This was with TRUE's and 113cfm Delta's
Bottom line is test with the apps your going to run every day as each has different factors.
Noted. Thanks for the quick reply!
