Looking Good, I'd say it Definitely looks like you have Plenty of CPU's for Testing!
 
I've always enjoyed Raising the Voltage and Pouring on the Cold to CPU's just to see what Limits they can endure before Meltdown occurs.

Well, at least I won't get bored any time in the near future. 

Tell me more about that volt mod daughter board??  I like it.
 
Funny, when I see that 5160 CPU I think of spring steel now.

You can take a look at how the previous owner did it here.
Basically, the led readout shows the current voltage, the larger rheostat changes the voltage, I don't know what the blue rheostat does though, the #1 dip switch is to enable or disable the mod (The other two don't do anything) and the two prongs at the end are for attaching a DMM for more accurate voltage readings. 

Hi everyone.. Running some benches and tests right MEOW!!!!
 
This is my water temps (ignore that it is set to #1 and #4, the connectors are too big to fit in #2 and #3)  This is using Ambient air temps btw.  11c-16c under full benching load.
 

 
Ignore the mess on the desk, this is how i am getting it colder today (up to 1599mhz on the GPU so far and 4.64 on the CPU):
 

 
I am running into a strange error* (if that is what it can be called) on my 980ti Classies.  When I hit 1599 max boost, no matter how much I overclock, GPU-z is only reading up to 1599, not past.  The card is stable up to +195, but once I hit +156 (the point it hits 1599 max) it won't read past that.  Any idea what could be causing this?

Did you ever figure this out?

Not yet. The temp went crazy and jumped from -2c in the room to 22c in 2 days.. it's like mid spring here right now, lol.

Waiting for another cold day to try again.

Leaving town (the country actually) in a couple of days. May have to wait until I get back unfortunately.

I have already reapplied the TIM. I tried the star method instead of spreading it, and the temps were not as good as I am used to with the loop being so cold. I redid everything, and now the temps are lower and both are nearly equal. I think the TIM was allowing a part of the core to get hot and causing failures.

Got my hands on some dice a few days ago. 
 


^ T1 is the temp of the base and T2 is the temp of the alcohol.


 
Cracked the 6GHz barrier with my Xeon X5687.  http://valid.x86.fr/025um0
Was benching stable @ 5.4-5.5GHz on all cores w/ HT and 5.6-5.7GHz with just two cores. Running 1.82V VCore.
 
I also did 5.1GHz on an E8600 & 5.3GHz on a P4 631.

Hummm, I was able to pull this off on air....
I was testing under windows 7 at the time.

 
So it has me wondering what is going on. Do you have any single runs listed anywhere? I want to check to see if those match up with any of mine. Thanks.
