Will give that a go, thats on SP3 not yet tried disabling cores at all. weirdly I can't get it to boot for love nor money with 47x multi but I managed to get into windows once with 48x
 
On Win 8

It's my first time overclocking the ram,(1600mhz ballistix tactical tracer)and it's running great at 1866,i just seem to get errors with superpi at 2000mhz,but it seems ok for general use
 
You'll need to loosen the timings up and/or up the vdimm to get it running at 2000mhz, dependant on how well that paticular ram clocks.
 
Something very strange going on. Tried a few runs earlier with another fresh install exactly the same as the first time.

Now getting Virtually the same 6m58s time although marginally slower @ 50x101 mem at 2222mhz 9-10-9-28

Went back to my previous 46x101 mem @ 2222mhz 9-10-9-28 and its now giving 7m10s.

Any ideas?

Im sure I should be expecting a good 5-10 second drop in times with the extra 400mhz or so. Or even getting the same time at the same settings
 
Something is not right with your clocks.
Most likely your not running the multi you think you are.

You did a run at 46x101 and got a time of 6.58
At 50x101 with the same OS settings and RAM settings that should net you a time around 6.25

Now 6.58 at 46x101 is very quick given your RAM is only running at 2200.
I would expect somewhere between 7.05 - 7.10 running on XP.

Earlier you said you cant boot with a 47x multi and only once got into windows at 4.8 how is it then you are doing 4.85 and 5 GHz runs ?

Are you sure the multi you have set in the BIOS is actually what your running at.

It looks like the problem is related to the Xp install. Using my daily 4.5ghz 2133 9-11-9 and the problem appears to have gone.

Edit: I'm was managing to get it to run with the higher multis by turning off two cores.

Edit 2: benching in win 7 for now 6m45s 4.9ghz 2133mhz 9-10-8-28-1T

Can't get it stable enough to boot 49x101 with Windows 7 but I can in XP although XP times are dire for some reason.

Memory still needs tuning as I've only made some quick changes on the Primaries, expecting some good times when I figure out why XP is so slow.

EDIT: Figured the problem with my XP install I think. Changed the drive and performance is back.

Nice one bud, will give it ago at 2400MHz

My run at 4.6GHz[4820K]16GB:4X4gb-2133MHz>10-11-11-30-1t are my PC X79 24/7 settings, coming from X58 4.2GHz 24/7 at 4.5GHz[920] 12G:3x4GB-1600MHz>9-9-9-22-1T SPi run was 8m.23sec.

One i ran last week sometime when testing the ram oc'd to 2600mhz, 1T, 11-13-12-31, 196 trfc.



Ive yet to try with a few suggestions 8 Pack reccomended for the secondary timings. Cache on that run was also knocked back to stock from 4300mhz. System running quite nicely with the ram and cpu clock in place. Been gaming a fair bit over the weekend and it's been rock solid.
