I7 930 overclock questions/concerns

[LateX'Dog]

Hey guys, managed to get my 930 to 4ghz, but it keeps dropping from 4.002 - 3.999 on cpuz.

Prime95 just recognised it as 3.99ghz

Also my temps read (Core temp readings)

Idle

Core 0 - 40c
Core 1 - 37c
Core 2 - 40c
Core 3 - 36c

Do they look normal to you guys?

Its normal for the core speed, bus speed and qpi link to fluctuate abit, always has always will, its normal.

The idle temps are fine, and are normal, but its loaded temps that matter the most. Thats very low vcore for 4ghz, is that stable at all?

About to find out.

20mins of Prime95 64bit on small FFT's

Core 0 - 71c
Core 1 - 69c
Core 2 - 67c
Core 3 - 65c

Those temps are fine, keep testing for abit longer, and also try a long run over night of blend to see if everything else is fine.

Anything there look wrong to you guys? constantly keep crashing in games, but yet prime seems fine.

Thanks.

I would probably say the qpi and cpu volts are a tad on the low side try raising them up abit.

I upped the QPI to 1.26, lets see if this is any better.
