 What is the best 1156 CPU for over clocking?

i ran the 661 and it did pretty well...5.6 ghz bench able

Lol looking at that asus huh, not really sure what the best is but I got one of the dual cores up to 4.7 or so on air. There all pretty oc friendly, just start with one of the i3s that are like 100 bucks those things fly if you cool em right


@jon great scores bet your glad you decided not to wait for the 970s

you are right reggie, i am glad i went ahead and got it...these things are over clock friendly..:)

keep pushing xxrabid...go for it!

@john, I'm with awalleye on the vtt.  With my 920 I needed +250, with the 960 I needed +450, with the 980 +150.  I think it depends on the chip.  What are you vantage stable at? (that's all the matters)

right now, im around +250 on mine. but my cpu voltage is way far less than you guys voltage though.

Maybe because of your SS.  My chiller only gives me idle temps of -15C on the cpu (Around +5C when at full load).  What temp your SS give you on the cpu?

which bench?

under load of anything other than vantage and wprime.
 it stays like below or around - 15 on all 6 cores.
vantage can get as high as 35 to 45 on the hottest core.

in a few a weeks im going to start to attack the 2d benches
I have some stuff planned but as of now I just have to wait for hardware to get here and clean off my workbench in the garage and just fully surrender it to hwbot

it's probably because his cpu needs to be reseated or the ram or both.
