Good evening Everyone,
I am new to the scene here and figured i would give it a shot and try to OC my PC and read quite a bit and did research on a lot of things. But i cannot seem to get my build stable (Using Prime95 and then the plan is to test after that with IntelBurnTest-V2 and Memtest)
but for whatever reason i cannot get Prime95 to pass not even the first test without some workers failing or Bluescreens.
I am not even sure if i am posting this in the right area, but i will give it a go and if it is the wrong area please forgive me and my rudeness for posting in this topic.
Here are my settings:
Mother Board ( EVGA X58 Classified E-760 )

CPU ( i7-960 )
CPU Cooler ( Corsair Hydro Series )
Memory ( CMG6GX3M3A1600C7 7 7 7 20 74 1T)
PSU ( Corsair HX1000W )
GPU ( EVGA GTX760 SLi X2)
Drivers ( 365.19 )
Operating System ( Windows 7 64 Ultimate )

CPU Clock Ratio ( 20X )
CPU Host Frequency (Mhz) ( 200 )
MCH Strap ( Auto )
CPU Uncore Frequency (Mhz) ( 3205Mhz { 16X } )
CPU Clock Skew ( 0 ps )
IOH Clock Skew ( 0 PS )
Spread Spectrum ( Disabled )
PCIE Frequency (Mhz) ( 102 )
OC Recovery ( Enabled )

Memory Feature:
Memory Speed ( Standard )
Memory Control Setting ( Enabled )
Memory Frequency ( 1067Mhz / 2:8 )

Command Rate ( 1t )
Voltage Control:
EVGA VDroop Control ( Without VDroop )
CPU VCore ( 1.31875V )
CPU VTT Voltage ( +250mV )
CPU PLL VCore ( Auto ) ( Set by Bios at 1.800V )
IOH PLL VCore ( Auto ) ( Set by Bios at 1.800V )
QPI PLL VCore (1.300V)
DIMM Voltage ( 1.66 )
DIMM DQ Vref ( +0mV )
IOH VCore ( 1,250V )
IOH/ICH I/O Voltage ( Auto )
ICH VCore ( 1.250V )
VTT PWM Frequency ( 490 KHZ )
CPU PWM Frequency ( 1210 KHZ )
CPU Impedance ( Auto )
QPI Signal Compensation ( Auto )
CPU Feature:
Intel SpeedStep ( Disabled )
Turbo Mode Function ( Disabled )
CxE Function ( Disabled )

QPI Frequency Selection ( 4.800 GT/s )
currently the computer boots up no problem and surfs the web, no crashes but cannot complete Prime95 at all and im out of things i can try :'(
Please let me know if you need any other information to get a bigger picture or not, and thank you in advance for any suggestions in which i should try to get this going.

You double posted this in two different sections back to back. I am keeping the thread in the Overclocking and Benchmarking section open and have removed the other, as your help is need with overclocking.
There are many awesome overclockers in here that will be able to assist you :-)

Hey, no worries. I am not personally familiar with that motherboard or bios, or I would try to help more. Just be patient and the gurus will eventually come pouring in.

i did come across this website, i remember going through the pages but did not really find anything substantial opposed to setting a few things like the qpi and upping the voltage 1 notch (1.65 to 1.66v on the dram) and see if that worked. did not work btw lol

Ok so i increased the QPI V from 1.3 to 1.35 and im able to run Prime95 for the past 40 mins so far so good!!!

Ok Prime95 Ran Solid for the whole night (more than 10 Hours), But Failing at IntelBurnTest-V2 any suggestions on this?

IBT is brutal, i have to run VCore, VTT and VDIMM higher to pass IBT, also, my system got pretty warm on it too. IBT is as much a benchmark for your CPU cooling as it is a stability test.
Also, is Speedstep and Turbo mode enabled or disabled?
Also, this is true in general, but more so on older platforms like X58 where all of the aspects of the board are tied together in such a way that you make one adjustment and you change several things.
Drop your memory speed, and get the CPU clock stabilized first. Once that is where you want it, then work on bringing your memory speed up. You are running the IMC higher than recommended from Intel, typically this is possible, however sometimes you lose the silicon lottery in regards to certain CPU aspect. My 930 I had to have VDIMM at 1.7250 iirc and VTT at +175mv to get 1600 stable. It is much easier to stabilize one section of an overclock at a time, then move on. So I suggest dropping your memory to somewhere in the 1066-1333 range, and get the CPU able to pass IBT, that way there is not much of a concern that your IMC is holding you back. Then start increasing the memory speed.

Perhaps this will be helpful. North bridge heat is a major factor with high B-clock.

Any updates? Curious to see where your OC is at currently.
