No, I wasn't using EVGA E-LEET on my RIV BE, I was just using the UEFI BIOS until I just tried the ASUS TurboV Core (AI3) last night and today.
 
Yes, I indeed hit the wall and agree that it would need to be on LN2 to go any higher on the OC, I was just experimenting with doorules 3960X that he wanted to loan me to try Benchmarking on my SS.
 
I knew the 32nm 3960X at 5.425GHz would not Benchmark as high as my 22nm 4930K at 5.2GHz did, But it was a lot of Fun just experimenting with it!
 
BTW, Have I told you how much I still Hate Kneadable Eraser?

Should look something like this.

 
 
Yers, that eraser does take some time to get in place, but once it is...helps out quite allot.

Nice job hallowen, way to stick at it and figure out the Vc thing.  I would have thought that cooling rig you have would have allowed for higher clocks, I guess it will require ln2 to go higher. It is also telling me that my cold air induction system must work pretty dam well even though it is so simple a setup. All the same it was interesting and thanks for helping out bud.

No Problem and Thanks again for Loaning it to me, It was a Lot of Fun testing/benching with the 3960X, Especially when I didn't have to spend $1k to buy one first! LOL!
 
As johnksss has stated, It would take LN2 at about -80C to get past the "Wall" that I encountered on this Chip where no matter How much Vcore I pushed, It just wasn't running Cold Enough to OC Higher.
 
Anyway, I re-installed my 4930K (plus another session of using Kneadable Eraser!) and once again I'm up and running.
 
BTW, Have you had a chance to use your "cold air induction" with your 4930K Yet?

"That's One Small Step for Man............One Giant Leap for hallowen..........."
 
 
After countless nights and days of indecisions, I have Finally decided to "Get it Colder", But I will be testing on DICE First because I want to get the "Feel" of things.
 
Also I don't know the time frame for my shipment to arrive from overseas , But I will be impatiently awaiting the arrival of these Items shown in the following Pics that recently were purchased from Kingpincooling.com/products and I am now in the process of COMPLETELY tearing down my Rig and building a New Extreme Benching Platform.
 
 
And So it Begins....

Thanks Gomez99, It's the Only Logical Step I can make to obtain Higher OC's.

Woohoo, I knew hanging out at K|ngP|n Coolings forums would have a positive effect on you.
 
And you are 100% right, DICE is the next logical step, and DICE/LN2/HE are the only way to REALLY move forward.
 
....And so it begins.

Here is a "Simulation" of my New Extreme Benching Rig (Notice the White Imitation CPU Pot).
 
I'll probably be waiting a few weeks for the REAL Dragon F1 Pot to arrive so I can begin with the Kneadable Eraser/Insulation and Shop Towels and hopefully after all that is completed I'll go get about 40lbs of DICE, Some Alcohol or Acetone and continue my Journey into the sub-zero Coldness!
