Depends what you do with your memory and cache.  The voltage results came up about the same with both clocks.

What about actual performance gains? I would think jacking up the BCLK would yield better performance then just jacking up the multi? If you OC the BCLK, does that effect the PCI-E lanes and Graphics cards? Or does that just directly effect, RAM and the CPU?

Well I must admit I was seriously considering switching boards, but after LOTS of reading, which never hurts anyway, trial and error, emails, phone calls, lots of nail biting and hair pulling... when I finally
 
found the voltages that seem to play together so far. I've gotten it to 4.2 stable 4.5 not yet, but haven't gotten higher yet as I just got an Asus 980 Strix. So far not as good or quiet as my 980 SC ACX
 
but with 2 480 rads with 4 107 cfm fans per rad I should be alright. the ek gold block is pretty sweet, while running Heaven 4.0 and then right after running Valley and cpu struggled to get to 30c under
 
load. It'll go up a fair bit with a gpu added but I'm just looking for a universal block to try a pr of 670 ftws atm. 
 
I haven't gotten a block for either yet, but am seriously considering it.
 
 Yesterday for some reason my raid 0 failed, wouldn't even boot to bios at 1st. After stress testing, re installing windows, everything is working good and with a bit more tweaking here and there it should
 
be even better. Thanks for the help so far. Still pretty new to ocing so it was a new experience...

I'm trying to push my 5930K to at least 4.6ghz or even 4.7 so far I can push it as far as 4527Mhz

For me, I started adjusting offset to lower the voltage a bit. Still playing around a bit, put Vin to 1.85-1.9, offset I adjusted to make the oc more stable. I haven't been able to get past 4.65 with a 5960, so that seems inline with a lot of results I've seen.
I'm just a novice, so take what you can and do so with extreme caution. I don't want to be the cause of frying that thing. Read read read, then try very small adjustments.
 
 I hope that helps a bit. If you find something else works, plz let us know

It boots up on at 4.65 and 4.7 but when I start running any benchmark like prime95, 3DMark, Heavenbenchmark,  Cinebench and Aida64 they all lock up. 4.53 to 4.54 seem to be the sweet spot for the 5930K.  Should I change up the BLCK?

Hey guys a quick tip here,

I manged to hit 4.45ghz by using the XMP2 profile and just increasing the multipiler (set to 35). Bclk is set to 127.34mhz. Everything else was left on auto. My board just increased voltage as I increased the multiplier. I tried to go higher but my temps arent helping at all. I'm running 100% stable btw. Specs on sig (need to change the clocks).

I would cautiously give it a tiny bit more voltage. Try the offset 1st, 5-10 at a time, not much. Sometimes reducing the voltage slightly works as well.
 
I've also found reducing the vcore slightly, then increasing the uncore and/or the offset helps. Trial and error for me, but having fun doing it.
 
Trying to get it to 4.75, buddy is at 4.74 hehehe. Friendly competition... Only got to 4.65 so far but have reduced the voltages enough to feel a bit more comfortable about the oc. and the possibility of using that to increase the oc.
 
GLBTW.

what do mean you try the offset at 5-10? Should I place the value of 5 or 10 on the offset?

Well i'm not too sure what is good, but I've usually set the offset between 15 -25 on average. I have increased it as high as 090 but don't recall how that went. 50-60 worked b4.
 
If my oc shows less than it should it may just need a few mv more or less at times. It's been trial and error for me, and the fellow who mentioned leaving the multiplier at 127.34 hasn't gotten me high enough yet, though I am going to try increasing the offset then decreasing it to try it. Reading a lot on this and these people have helped me get it a bit higher already, let alone start to understand the bios.
A bit lower voltage, 1.369 gives me 4.662, offset 15, if I remember correctly. This is where I'm not certain where or what to adjust, everything else is auto except V Droop, disabled.
 
core 1.25  offset 119  15 for the other offset. I haven't tried the ring voltage, and haven't even looked at cache either. Looking at trying the higher offset, but reading a bit 1st.
