I might try that, but I seem to be getting a more stable oc using 125 bclk for some reason, though that may be due to the crazy high vcore
Will try and see how I get on, but will carry on looking to see how I can limit vcore as Im wary of keeping this overclock at these voltages no matter how stable it is..

R4E mobo
3930K cpu
32Gb GSkill DDR3-2133 (PC3-17000)
2 x 128Gb M4's raid 0
Manual overclock
BCLK set to 125.000
Multi = 36 (can boot into windows on 38 but at insane volts )
CPU LLC set to auto
VCSSA LLC set to auto (auto gives me the best vcore at the moment)
I was trying to change as few settings as possible initially as I dont understand what all of them do, so was wary of changing them.
the bit Im struggling with at the moment is what to change to drop the vcore back down as I know my vcore is too high, but any pointers you can give on useful settings to tweak would be appreciated and I will give them a try when I get back home
By the way - kudos for the insane o/c on your rig..

I can get 125x36 (4.5GHz) out of my C2 Batch# 3148C636 (from Overclockers UK). I can't get any more...
46x100 (4.6GHz) is stable with 1.39v, medium LLC and 1600MHz RAM. But gets upwards of 82c under IBT. Seems to require a lot more voltage than others' setup around the interwebs. Also, if i raise my RAM to above 1866 it will just crash in IBT, the IMC seems to suck..
I've been overclocking this chip for over a week now, i can't seem to get much out of it.
I am disappointed.
Any other C2 users having the same issues as me?
