It was only yesterday that I mentioned that I had decided to use AIDA for stress testing after having pretty much rotten luck getting stable with Prime @ 4.5GHz on my 3570k especially with the latest version 27.9.
Today I decided to give it one last shot with Prime, and If it failed I would except that I probably would have to go down to 4.4 or 4.3 and be done.
Take a look at this This is 2 hours into the test, ( just a little over actually) although RealTemp only says 39 mins, but this is because I reset it a few times, The Prime start time and test time at image show it's 2hrs 15 mins to be exact. I would say the temps are excellent, and the Max hit at primes hardest were 87c since then they have been as shown, and the vcore has been rock steady at 1.296v throughout. What I don't understand is why suddenly have I been able to get stable with the same settings that time and time again have failed. I have X.M.P/ ASUS Multicore Enabled/ Turbo Ratio x45/ Overvoltage Auto/ Offset +130/ Medium LLC/ Power Phase Optimised/ Spread Spectrum disabled. and this is lt: http://img841.imageshack.us/img841/5184/33419984.jpg
Any sugestions on why 95% of the time these settings failed, and now suddenly I'm able to get this result
