Hey guys.

I odnt understand what going on here.

I can perfekt run 4.8Ghz at 1.435 Volt, but if im going up to 5Ghz it reg 1.545 voltes.
Why so much:/?

is it some settings in bios there can help it or?

What I have noticed about these Chips is that you must find the sweet spot on the Blck.

My buddy(who currently holds WR) actually confirmed this with his 2 chips.

One was 119 and one was 105. Also some are even 133.
It could be anything!! But when you find it the chip will take significantly lower voltage. Some may disagree with this but I have used enough of these CPUs to know.

However, in your case, it could just be that your chip is commanding much more voltage once you get over 4.9. That is actually typical on liquid and air and typical of overclocking any CPU



Also, Can anyone confirm that the 7970 thoroughly beats the 580?
