I'm still running a Fatal1ty 990FX Pro and it's great. It's strange that the exact same thing could happen on both z77 boards. I'm going to RMA it and sell the replacement they send me for cheap.

The 990FX pro is what I threw away. I think it's the Fatality branding. Or ASRock in general.

I won't buy ASRock again. I was tempted to get an OC Formula but I'm glad I got this ASUS board instead.

Just hit 5GHz. Not bench stable yet so I don't have temps

Attachment 235988
CPU-Z

Nice one there, Mark. Well done.

Woah, if I took my 3770K up to 5GHz I think it would melt! it runs hot enough at 4.4, let alone 5.

Sorry, just now see it.

Why is this?

Looks like your CPU has been downgraded

These apps get wrong info frequently, is it the newest version?

Britton mine works fine I updated to RC4 yes Dave the newest version as i can tell

Yes Dave, RC 4 is the newest version yesterday because the RC 3 had a goofy listing too.
Solar, my AMD machine reads out like yours, each core and is correct.

I pushed this chip as much this board will alllow me
If i happen to purchase a better board im sure i'll get a better clock

anyway here are some benches i took with this new CPU 8350

I also am using APS which allowed me to get it stable at this speed btw

Nice job, Solar. Nice overclock, well done.
