E4500 questions & keeps down clocking

[Mr. May]

hello there ive got my self a e4500 on an asus rampage mobo and it keeps going from 6x-7x-10.5x-11x i have got intel speedstep turned off but still no luck and i aslo

1. whats the safe oc volts for this

2. are these any good at oc'ing ? (i thought they would because off the 11x multi but cant even get it stable)

Have you disable both EIST and C1E in the BIOS?

Got around 3.3-3.6 with most E4500 i had here last year, can't remember vcore for the life of me though, do remember more vcore didn't help some at all and they ran fairly hotter than i'd expect. (did about 10-11)

 

[Mr. May]

c1e is off and what is EIST ? and this chip seems crap so far cant get any oc it just crashes all the time and it the 1st time ive used this kind off bios so iam pretty lost
