Are you not use-ing Watercooling ?

That's the first thing i did when i got the chip i switched to a WaterBlock

Also reading about these chips voltages varies but can be chured up to 2.0 V-core
The Boards that saw the Best OC was Fomula IV Boards and Gigabyte 990ufd

My board have a highest v-core of 1.49 I can't go any higher even with the C1E C6 turbo core etc turned off

Im running MSI 990fx GD-80 which is doing the job

To compemsate for the Power draw i got the AX850 which helped my Crossfire set up as well and everything is Buttery smooth i do have this clip of a bench i took last night at these setting on Unigene 3.0 I havn't tryed at my normal resolution though or 1920/1080

also clocks were 920/1130 920/1130 i just leveled it out at 920/1125 diamond card 6870 Msi card 920/1120 The 1120 is stock when you go higher it freezes the bench that is why i left it but the diamond runs well off the higher clock speeds also use-ing the 12.3 CCC Not a single issue like others have been reporting

I still don't like the idea of liquid cooling yet. I've got a Phanteks PH-TC14PE with a UK-3000 and an AP-121 in push/pull. Under load the max core temp hit 47c and averaged 45c. Pretty good. I'm going to add a fan to the right side aimed at the back of the CPU. That will help.

I wound the FSB down to 200 and upped the multi to 22.5 to keep 4.5GHz. That allowed me to drop the voltage down a touch but it's still at 1.5v. I tried all the LLC options and having it disabled is the best option.

That will probally be your most stable overclock but if you bring the ram down you could up the multiplyer and get a stable 4.7 with out really Oc'ing the ram

I seen when i used the chip Multiplyer and didnt fiddle with the FSB or SB NB settings the memory increased on it's own due to a better memory controller on this cpu mine went from 7.5 to 7.8 off the Overclock I found that pretty Impressive

My chip needs too much voltage past 4.5GHz. After comparing all my results, this is these are the best settings. This chip is fun to OC. It's not like my old 1090T

That looks great Mark. Good RAM numbers with a 1760 speed, very good.

Good grief that Voltage is pretty High did you happen to see what revision or serial number of the CPU some of them varies in voltage when tweeking

Most 8150s need 1.5 for over 4.5GHz. I've dropped the voltages since then...look again. Some get lucky and can run it at 1.4...just not me. It's not like it's causing problem heat wise. My cooling system keeps it at 45c under load so I'm not worried

Thanks mate

This appears to be the best results I can get from my ram, it will clock higher but the results do not increase.

It's a mild OC, but I managed to tighten the timings a little on top of the OC.

Damn Intel guys and their high numbers...lol.

Lol, Just for you then tw33k my AMD rig

Paul, even the picture looks brighter on your Intel rig. The AMD one is rather dark and dreary.

I can't do as well as Paul, but here's the best I have done so far, but I haven't played with it.
