Egh?
My NB's reporting at 48c, core temp reporting much lower than that..
How can they be one and the same?.

your getting confused mate.
me and Cozman was trying to work out what was tmpin2. now looking at your screenshot in post #595, your NB temp is at 50c. so that basicluy tells me tmpin2 = NB for my board.

now the big question is it the motherboard NB or CPU-NB

It's motherboard NB.
Hence I have an SB.

The best I can do on my RAM is 1400MHZ at 5-6-5-16-20-1T.

Brilliant. :)

yes, quite impressive actually. what's your RAM brand/model again, please?

I'm using CL9 2000MHZ Ripjaws.

But given the IMC won't run it at 2000MHZ stable, and I'm on a none BE, I took advantaged of its massive headroom on bus clocking.

I'm fully stable at 6-6-6-18-20-1T.

5-6-5-16-20-1T hasn't been tested propelly yet.

I'll settle for 5-6-6-17-20-T most likely.
 
would've never imagined pushing the bus to 350+ could be possible. wish I had ordered that 1055 instead.

Also wonder why my 9-9-9-24@1600 dominator sticks are set to 11-11-11-30 at 1600 by default

got a lot to learn here yet, haha
 
The crosshair IV formula is the only board capable, it's followed by the UD7 at shy of 300.

For my 24/7 OC, I'm just sticking at 4025MHZ with 1400MHZ CL6 RAM.

I haven't got the time time or energy to go further anymore lol.

I'm currently approaching an hour in a blend at 4.1GHZ on my 1055T.
If you lot can't get 4.2GHZ stable, then you've wasted 70-90 quid imo..

Not at all. Most people aren't running 890 boards, or boards that can get 300FSB+, so for me the 1090T was the best choice to get anywhere near 4GHz+.

Though atm I am having to run lower until I move all my cooling around and get a fan on my 'FETs :(

Going to try and front mount my H50 and clear some space for a fan at the rear.
 
cant speak for others with a 1090T but for me .... 4Ghz tried and tested and now using and enjoying is enough ... why waste more time testing and priming to get a bit more when its not really needed at the moment

stop messing and enjoy the chip ... unless of course you enjoy spending your time clocking and watching the prime hours tick over :D

all IMHO .. 4Ghz is fast enough on 6 cores for me and Im using it to do the things I bought it for not clock watching stress tests :p

going back to my quiet corner on the forums now .. lol

I quite enjoy the challenege.
 
Yeah, me too. Clocking itself is fun, even though I'm still not too sure what I'm doing. I built this rig for FSX and now I spend far more time tweaking the bios... then rebooting :p... than flying

OCing was supposed to increase performance in FSX but I can't see any difference, despite of that I keep wasting hours for an extra 100Mhz. LOL

You should be on WC if your running your cpu 24/7.

These are desktop chips, not designed for that sort of use.

Thats what server chips are for, hence why they are priced higher

A monumental statement, you obviously have never experienced vob to vcd and the 12 hours that used to take on a p3 or the need to queue 1-2 and as cpu got faster 5 or 6 vob to xvid/divx per night. Personally I have been crunching in one form or another for around 7yrs, discounting the opteron mania 144/146 I have never had a server class cpu and never been on water. Nor have I ever fried a cpu, all this on air

These cpu's should be able to run 24/7 at the spec amd sell them at, and for whatever purpose one chooses to run them 24/7. I am well aware that anything above spec is down to the end user. A quick straw pole in the folding section on this board as to who is running server cpu's would be very interesting
 
I meant if your running 24/7 overclocked you shuld be on water. But thats only based on my experiences of temps. Id never want to run my chip close to thermal spec 24/7.

Desktop chips arent designed to do that (run close to thermal spec 24/7)
