You must have the modded BIOS because the P6T would be throttling all over the place between 20-21x without it.
Hey Randyman, I guess you havent seen my golden 920 D0 that I was running. 4.54 GHz prime stable with HT enabled on air. Maybe its just me and some people, but I never consider the rig stable until at least some linx, orthos, or prime is attempted.Regardless if it would pass Prime Blend, large FFT's, or LinX, it passed a SuperPi @ 4.51GHz with max temps @ 60*C on a TRUE with one fan A SHINING example of why Air rules the more complex water-cooling setups IMO You just increased my lust for an i7 setup by an order of magnitude!!! But I think I'll hold out for an i5 Nehalem with a significantly lower system pricetag and comparable performance...
Current Setup:
Asus p6t-deluxe v2 w/ v1 bios
Patriot Extreme Memory 6GB
TRUE with push/pull noctua fans
Well, as you all know I have been going through i7-920's like cake here. So far, my max bclk on the different chips that I went through:
My first Newegg 920-C0 = max bclk 192
Second C0 bought locally = max bclk 202
MIAHALLENS Japanese D0 = max bclk 218
My latest Japanse D0!!! = max bclk 215
My latest arrivals to the D32 testing ground! lol
Prime Stable Settings:
216 X 21 - 4.54 GHz
vcore = 1.39
pll = 1.96
qpi = 1.35
dram = 1.65
ram - 9-9-9-24, 1T
HYPER THREADING ENABLED! 8 Threads baby!
So, I am pretty sure the bclk issue is both a combination of cpu and motherboard. I may try and use the EVGA classified to try and get a few more ponies out of this latest chip that I got my hands on. Let me tell you guys. I am prime, 3d, and bench stable at 4.54 GHz and 1.38 vcore. This latest chip is incredible and I have definitely come to the conclusion that if this puppy had an unlocked multi I would be 4.9 to 5.0 Ghz on air! PS- temperatures are identical on the new cpu, about 80 to 85*C load and 40 to 50*C idle.
Let the results come:

Raised NB clock and mem speed a hair. Shave a good 30 seconds off 32m:

What are you max temps with your TRUE?
He might be sitting in a walk in freezer...that is absolutely amazing load temps. i dont understand how that air cooler can keep that CPU under 60c with 1.345 vcore.
