Above 1.65dimm 24/7

[needforspeed]

I have been tinkering to see what the best performance I can get for a potential 24/7 setup,

I wanted to stay close to 1.375max CPU, and below 1.4 VTT, and found I can get decent scores and RAM latency with the set up shown..

The sacrifice is the VDimm needed to be stable 1.69v..

While I am ok with vcore and vtt. being on edge of Intel specs... I have no reference/ experience to how dangerous going above 1.65 dimms really is.

Whats the recommendation?

My recommendation would be: Push it more!

Well, not for 24/7, those are more then ideal settings considering those moderate voltages.

Look at my 24/7 settings:

nice uncore, don markoni hope you get your mb back soon sp you can enjoy that beast.
i have a 6gb 2000mhz kit that moves data @ those speeds.
unfortunately, i upgraded to a 12GB 2000mhz kit that can only do read/writes about 17K.

question, how you feel running above 1.45v on the cpu.

Thanks! I got it back yesterday, late afternoon, it's a fresh picture.

Check you CxE states and Hardware Prefetcher under CPU Features in BIOS, they should be Enabled. Also check if your UnCore speed has changed.

I feel comfortable, it's well cooled. And, of course, it's an Extreme version, so it should take the abuse ...hopefully.

i enabled the states and my cpu throttled all the way to x26 multi 4,600mhz
when loaded 100% it gives me x25 multi/4,400mhz
not fully stable, 86/87Gflps 6core/12threads.

looking at your calibrations also 1.42v qpi
i think im gonna have to spank this chip like a runaway slave.

Oh, I forgot, sorry, you should set CPU Turbo Power Limit to Disabled and CPU TM Function also to Disabled, so you CPU doesn't throttle or lower multi.
