Temperature Test Passed!!!


Temperature = 64 degrees C below maximum.


--- Reading Brand String ---

Detected Brand String:
Intel Core i7-2600K 3.40GHz

Brand String Test Passed!!!


--- Reading CPU Frequency ---

Expected CPU Frequency is --> 3.40


Detected CPU Frequency is --> 3.41102

CPU Frequency Test Passed!!!


--- FSB NOT Supported on this Processor ---


--- Running Base Clock test ---


Detected Base Clock --> 100

!!! --- Base Clock test Fail --- !!!

--- Test End Time: 03/21/2011 21:11:52---


I am hoping this doesnt mean my i7 2600K is fubar ??

The test does not support SB - it looks for FSB (front side bus) and SB does not have such a beast.
 
--- Base Clock test Fail --- is normal on the intel test with SB chips, it needs updating to support SB.. Ignore the FSB and Base Clock results. Also it can fail on the Integrated Memory Controller Speed Test (IMC) Ignore that one too.

Intel really need to get off their rears and update that program to work correctly with SB chips, it's resulting in a lot of working chips being sent back because of intels lazyness.
