exactly why you dont see me posting mine nor grabbing or asking of others....people like to take what you put out and then try to pass it off as theirs...im cool on that...lol

It just looks really strange that your gflops are so LOW for that overclock. They should be up in the 50's. The gflops shown in linx, are what you got under load.

"Documented bugs show that occasionaly LinX barely tests the system and these false outcomes should not be accepted at face value."

Try it again.

If the first pass shows 30s GFlops again, stop the test and get back to us.  But if the first pass shows over 50 GFlops, let all 20 passes finish and post the results again.

LinX is known to become less stressful sometimes and lowe the GFlops due to a bug.  What triggers it sometimes is if you have an error in the middle of the test and LinX stops.  It will tell you that it halted due to the error.  If you test again without changing anything, it can do the full test again but at a lower stress level.

Did you start the test and then stop the test and then start the test again?

If anyone can take the criticism and heat, I would certainly like to see a stability template thread. And I could care less if someone borrows mine.
 
There is rarely any understanding demonstrated by anyone that they understand the i7 datasheet and white papers (not everyone, moron. I don't mean you!). I have always said that most everyone is analyzing the patterns in the template and various voltage suggestions data very well. But that doesn't mean we understand the operation and relationships of the high-k + metal gate transistor technology in 45nm i7, nor do we understand the CPU architectural implications. If we did, then exactly like the designers of the EVGA X58 motherboards and the BIOS engineers, we could say with some authority and confidence that at 4.5GHZ one may have to diddle this, for such and such a reason. But, all we get here is one recipe after another which recommend one voltage tweak here or there, with almost never a supporting analysis why it might be done.
 
If we cared about reasons, we'd publicly, in this forum, criticize such vacuous recommendations. If we want to actually learn then we should eschew unsupported suggestions. Elsewise, what's wrong with templates? Or, do we simply want to keep our's secret so we can retain a hard won victory?

johnksss stability templates above 4.5 ghz is what you probably wont see. since those are the ones that really matter...
