king Dro, welcome, you may want to start your own post unless Nenad, doesn't have an issue with you posting about yours here. That said how long did you run prime for at 4.7?

Np if Nenad, doesn't have an issue with it then it's not one. Just a heads up, most of is do not consider a PC "stable" unless it passes 2 hours of prime blend. Though if it's stable enough for you then so be it.

I may be able to pop back in later. We'll see my evenings are usually quite busy, tonight it's 1/2 price wings for a friends Bday so my spelling might be off a bit. Ha ha
Hahah, hope you have a good time mate!
I did what you said, Multiplier is on 19.5, Bus Speed on 230 and Vcore at 1.425V. This is after 30mins of Prime. Here are the snapshots.

king pro, 4.6-4.8 is about best "working" speed with these processors, if your not benching or hard gaming why spend the money on more cooling.

nenad, you are getting close on the socket temp, do you have a fan that you can point on to the vrm heatsink?

If you went through all posts you can see that atm it's sitting on my desk. I posted a pic. I posted as well that my case is on it's way. Gonna make a diffrence with 5 coolers in it and gonna do what Johan suggested me, put a 50mm fan on backplate of my mobo.

Looks Nenad, the temps are getting up there as C_D said. At this point I'd like you to try and drop the voltage a bit, if possible. It might like it where it is but if we can lower it a bit we'll save some added heat. So try for 1.4 and see how it reacts. Do a test and with luck it'll pass

La st night was fun too many wings and beers though. Been a bit of a sluggish start for me today.
Temps look good and I figured the voltage would be fine but you never know each CPU is different in it's requirements.
I think we should stay at this speed for now and we'll try to get the performance up with the CPU_NB and Memory. Let's start with the NB. Go to your bios and bump it up one step, that should put you in the 2500 range which " shouldn't need any more voltage and is a good everyday speed. There are benefits to upping this such as better ram and cache performance but some CPUs are weaker in this area than others so it can cause instability as well, only one way to find out. Bump it up and run prime again and let's see.
I have one more request Nenad that you put all that info about your parts from your first post into your sig like you see it in mine. Go to the top of the page on the right in the grey bar you'll see quick links. Click it and select Edit Signature from the drop down menu

Glad you had fun! Will do in about 30mins. And will run prime to check it out. I am gonna update my Signature as well so people can see the spec's I am using x)

I was worried about this. I've been helping another with very similar ram and it just seems to be a headache. Make sure it's set to 2T command rate and the tRFC is set to 300. Also set the timings at 11-11-11-30-40 then try p95 again
We may not be able to run this stuff at 2400 just so you're aware of that.
