Nice oc Gary
One thing that has been noticed with Haswell when really pushing it is that they perform better at a lower oc. Actual numbers i can't remember though.

Been reading this as well

@Kelly they are already Hot pockets applying more voltage might make it to toasty

I already started looking for that Sabertooth Z77 everyone has them on sale for 150.00 to 179.00 dollars that sounds like a win to me

I can't find a I7 3770k around my local stores there all on sale for 249.99

Bom, bom bom bom bom

Tried for 4.7 again, almost made it.

Lookin good, Doug! You'll have it there soon enough

Nice one Doug, I will update tomorrow as I am away from home tonight.

I think with an adaptive CPU voltage, you could either get that same OC with less voltage, or bump it up and have a stable OC.

Tried it and it won't even POST with Adaptive set. Mayube this replacement board is crap too.

Nice one Gary, welcome aboard mate.

Nice OC.

Thanks Paul, it BSOD'd though later, lol.

That is odd

With Haswell Intel put the voltage regulator on the CPU die so there's a ton more voltage settings which used to be handled by on-board chips. Many volt frequency settings too. I'm so

Leaderboards updated Doug

So I gave another go at 4.7, no luck BSOD. I keep thinking somethng isn't right looking at voltage and temps. So then I decide to reseat my cooler again, that has to be it cause temps spike way to high running IBT it shot to 100 so I stopped it.

So then I remove the cooler, clean the cpu, then thought what the heck, lets see what the stock cooler sitting in my cabinet can do. I put it in, then did a test run at 4.5. Temps only went up to 89C after 5 runs. And prime on the 4th test



So is the other cooler bad, or did I just not have it seated good? I find the not seated right hard to believe as I re did it several times to make sure.

And I watched the voltage, it went to 1.184. Added a IBT x10 passes



What do you guys think, did I bork the installation of the cooler, or is it bad?
