1.347 is very high for stock speed. Make sure you have the latest bios version for your board. Should help to lower voltage.

That was when turbo boosted to 4.4Ghz.
Anyway, currently got it running 4.5Ghz at 1.300v and while it seems stable, trying to run intel burn test hits 100C on my CPU pretty quickly, so going to try scaling back the voltage a little more. Was hoping to hit around 4.6-4.7Ghz, it's just the question of how happy I am with hitting that 100C in a high intensity benchmark when realistically nothing's going to push it that high in the real world.

Virus, what's your ring/uncore/catch frequency ? Try moving this up towards 4.8ghz as we'll. omly other thing to do is fine tune ram I guess. Every little helps with cinebench.

What cooler do you have, Virus? Beginning to think mine may not be mounted properly. It's getting good low temps at idle, but leaps right up under load.
I am using a EK S Waterblock with chip delided
liquid metal pro on the die
IC Diamond metal on the IHS..
-----------------------------------------------
It works for me

Yeah some good temps at that speed. I think you could get 4.9ghz with that cooling setup.

Good temps Virus, will have to start a spot of clocking on this new one soon. Did get to 4.8 on my first one, but not stable. Could run the likes of real bench etc but nothing too heavy.

stable @4.9 is easy but i dont have a issue running @4.8 and your not going to see much of a difference going from 4.8 to 4.9, now going from 4.4 default to 4.8 thats a big difference..
i could probably get 5.0 stable @1.38v cooling probably would not be a issue AVX Prime95 test though would be a issue and probably crash.
though well lets just say i have options

good enough for me

IBT temps.
That will be down to uncore catch and memory timing/bandwidth.
see if you can get the uncore to match cpu 48X. I can only get my uncore to 47X and cpu 49X at the same time. can get it to match but volts are way to high for me.

Couple of questions please:
1/ Does the liquid metal pro last forever if you leave it in situ?
2/ What temp reduction did you get?
3/ How much extra overclock has this enabled you to get?
Thank you.

We have the same exact cpu stepping. G1 Sniper Z87. You?

Have another now a 317 it's almost identical to the 44, my board is now Asus Gene V11.
1: Yes, never needs changed, and no bedding in either.
2: 15-20c+ Load temp reduction when combined with delid.
3: More voltage 1.35+ without fear of hitting 80-85c

Do you know if the older Liquid pro also lasts forever? I've 2 new tubes of that.

Did you work out the bclk buttons kimandsally?
