@ wolf i did as u have described above - 4 cores 8 threads and set the qpi link to slow -
 
boots all right little slower --but cant go in to os - it blue screens - i think either low voltage or the rams timings etc .
i have 40gb of ram 4gb gskill @ 1.5 volts .
 
can u pls tell how and which options to select so i also see if ii can do above 4.4ghz etc .
 
i would really love to hit 4.5 / 4.6 ghz .
 
would appreciate if u can give some details as to which options to choose from .
 
also which options to chose from to get the rams stable
