Cache was running at 4.2ghz, shouldn't give issue plus 2h stable 26.6 (nothing else crashes), mem is memtest 24h stable, GPU is heaven 4.0 2h stable. And i already said that it could be that 26.6 2h simply isn't enough. Not going to bother over it, i spent more then enough time troubleshooting to get this to work in the 1st place. These "pre-packed" benchs always give me more trouble then their worth 
Only thing im curious about is these supposed "tweaks" Johan doesn't want to spill

Typically systems aren't pushed as hard day to day as they are benching. That's why we always suggest people use a seperate drive for benching. Since you WILL corrupt windows and most likely a BIOS from time to time. Installing OS is like a second job for me.
just test it as I said to prove it already...correlations prove nothing. Correlation is not causation, remember.
As far as the tweaks, I'll pm you in a little bit after I send the kids to school...but caddi already mentioned it.

I'm not doubting any of you (said it in the 1st post that it was the 1st thing that jumped to mind). Regardless i would have to get a board that has AVX offset to test it (thought that was a Kaby Lake novelty). Maybe when i trade up to a 6c/12t KL or a Ryzen if their as good as they say ?
I'm surprised the hero doesnt. Both my Extreme z170 and x99 have that as an option...with skylake and broadwell-e
You aren't doubting us, but staunchly defend your point in the face of what we are saying.
I don't think KL is going to have a hex core variant.

to that! I have a cloned image and separate HD/SSD for every one of benching rigs. Sure makes it less of a hassle when I eventually bork the OS, especially when pushing ram!

Same with the last 2 for the VIII Hero from what i see in the forums, but it's clearly stated that 3101 is a beta. The introduction of KL uCode in 2202 seems to have completely screwed up stability and most that tried 3101 had to flash back to previous (i'll stay with 2001 for now). Some kinks are always to be expected with every new CPU revision i suppose.

Knock on wood, this MSI Z170A XPower Gaming Titanium Edition (review sample from the forum) has been a very nice board to OC on. I've yet to have an issue with it other then when I'm trying to push the Ram too hard. I sometimes will dork the BIOS and have to re flash it!

SwartHack/EVGA 980TI HydroCopper/water/5234.919
Sometime ago I recall Johan mentioning he preferred Afterburner for GPU OC. At the time I thought you had to use the "vendor" OC software.
So after cursing EVGA PrecisionX I switched over to Afterburner, few questions....
1- Is Kombuster something I should look into more. I have played around with it in the past...
2- When you define the settings in whatever "OC tool" one may be using, should you leave it running in the background or kill it??
Thanks for any feedback!!!
Cheers!

I don't think that was me Swart, I may have suggested it but I've always been partial to NVidia inspector. Great OC software. Light on the system with oodles of driver settings. My biggest beef would be the fans. You can save OC profiles but still have to set the fan speed manually.
