HPET mode is controversial somewhat. I use 64, was told back then that was the way to go for 64-bit OS. But this year there has been a couple of debates about it, no clear answer for you. You prob will never know the diff. Apparently it usually doesn't really matter much either way.

Ok i'll keep the HPET mode at 32. Ok so now if to do that post 40 to try to take this to the next level to 32 X I have to do the stuff from post 40 and I keep moving up until when I reach my max "Number X" I do the LinX 25 test and then then P95 and if both pass I have succeeded?

Yeah, theoretically speaking you will have reached a maximum acceptable temperature at that point.

Oh so you think 32 X would be my max theorically speaking?
Even if the temperatures are around the 70 70 70 70 70 70 zones?
With the Zreg in the 50s zone?

No, but you'll never know until you raise your CPU Vcore and find out. I'm guessing about 33.
Keep us posted, tell us your settings (Vcore and multi) and what temps you are reaching please.

3b is usually that you have VTT set too high. Check it, is it still +0? Set it to +0 (take it off of auto) anyway.
If VTT is +0, try DIMM 1.55V (Voltage control section). 3b indicates something is not set perfect regarding your memory in BIOS - usually a voltage.

124 is either VTT or Vcore try increase one or the other and test again.

1 tick up until something changes :) good luck.

lol no Vcore has set values you increase by you select the next option up.  Same with VTT.  They are 2 separate voltages only increase them one at a time to test. Its trial and error. since their is no set voltages that it will magically run at :) every CPU is different.

I haven't gotten the 1E at all after the first time I got it. I have been getting 3B and now 124.
Are the settings I only touch named 'CPU VCore' and 'CPU PLL Voltage'? Or should I adjust 'CPU PLL VCore', 'IOH PLL VCore', and 'QPI PLL VCore' also?

Ok thanks I will do this stuff now to fix that 124 so that I can get that 32 X test positive.

Ok I failed this test at 32 X with 71 74 68 69 72 72 VREG 45 [With VCore of 1.32500] and in red it said: Stopped upon error after 48 min. Since this isn't a 124 Error what should I do? Should I continue adding .05 and try the test again?

Yes. BSOD, lockup, or stopped on error, it doesn't matter; the procedure for all is the same. You are in the middle of your OCing procedure. This is what it is like. This is how it's done. No need to ask about every tiny step, just the big ones. You should be getting the hang of it soon - until conditions change a little. Just keep repeating the procedure.

BTW your temps are nice for your settings. Is is very cool in the room? What part of the world do you live in? Is it the cool season there? Does it get hotter in the room in a different season?

Nah, I'd go .05 until 83. That's probably just one or two steps away. Florida huh? Well there's something else to think about now. Does it ever get hotter in the room, like days without AC? If so, you might not want to go much farther. You see, for every 1C increase in room temperature, you get a 1C increase in core temp. That's roughly 1C per 2F, exactly it is 5C per 9F. So ponder that. Decide just how hot you want to go. The thing is, unless you are folding, you won't ever make such extreme high temps like LinX does. But you could get somewhat close sometimes when you aren't expecting it, like when encoding video. So it's not like it is a well-defined ceiling. It is your call.

I should also mention (other than what I just said in my recently edited post above) that your CPU has a failsafe. It automatically downclocks (that multiplier you are adjusting) when it reaches the max temp, 100C. This prevents damage, although it should theoretically shorten the lifetime a little. So that makes the ceiling even more vague. If it were me, I think I would stop at 85. You already have a good decent OC, no need to push it for a few percentage integers.
