I kept it at 1.65v. Ive tried all kinds of crazy things and almost anything above 225 just hard locks as soon as the Bclk sets. I got it to set at 226 w\o freezing one time, but when I tried 227 it Hard locked again. Before I dive head first in to this im going to flash my BIOS.

Right now my Target is 224 Bclk for benching, or whatever in the neighborhood of 4.7ghz that works the best. Im hoping it wont take a crazy amount of Vcore though. Im going to work on finding the sweet spot with a lower CPU multi to see whats in store. Than Ill set this up on air outside and see what my GPU's can do in the cold air, and than after all that testing ill strap on the POT and hopefully I can just jump right in to finding where my CPU works best, without having to worry about the Ram\GPUs\etc. That way I dont waste half of my DICE\Time figuring out the other stuff.

Im wondering how different it is running 16x225ish from 21x225ish for the RAM\NB\etc.

Hopefully I can match up to some of your guys single GTX 295 scores finally

Got my Classy today, set her up and she works fine (for now, muahahahaha). Im gonna do some max bclk's\Super Pi runs here in a bit, see what kind of OC's im in store for under DICE.

The backplate adheasive wasnt strong enough to go on a second time. I fixed it though




I told everybody the PNY GPU ruins the buzz Oh well, Ill just have to settle with what I got for now.

can't see the picture at work :(

Tried uploading them to the forum but it failed.

I had to use electrical tape to fasten my HSF's backplate on my Classy because the adhesive wore off after taking it off my E758.

13K btu would make a MONSTER phase change

Idk what you paid for that thing, but you could have just bought a SS unit from Sdumper for a little more

I built my 1st chiller with a portable AC unit like that.

The condenser coil is the only drawback, its slightly rounded .
Since it was only for benching wasnt a problem, just used a box fan up against it.

I'll dig it out and post some pics later for you to see what I mean...

at ZERO overclock, on JUST PLAIN water, Been running LinX and the CPU temp never went over 29°C 
The lapping job now has 4 cores within 5° of each other.

This is just plain aqua.  running through 2 triple rads.  i can run 4.0GHz on 1.3Vcore.  wow.  like this block already.

Eh.. Isn't a good 920 D0 able to do 4.2-4.3 on 1.2V?

yeah, becuase i sure don't have one of those super chips anymore...grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

best to get that sleep...you still have time to get out the bugs...then go full steam on the weekend.

Looks like i'll be stepping up in the PC world really soon: http://www.evga.com/articles/00525/ Winner winner, chicken dinner!

I <3 Meh sleep. Ill sleep 12+ Hours in a day if I dont need to do anything.

Grats Rabid. Good to see someone who didnt already have an i7 it get one.

I downloaded the E760 new BETA BIOS and it is bugged up the as*. RAM divider seems stuck at 2:8, I disable the 'Turbo Performance' option and I cant make it through the first GPU test at STOCK GPU speeds.

And those are the ones ive found in just 90min of testing.

Sleep is for suckers!  4 good hours is all you need........

thats the problem, 4 hours a day since my daughter was born just over 2 months ago.  I held her in my arms this morning and she stared at my and just cried, and cried, and cried...  stuff a bottle in her mouth, and life is good again.
