i7 920.. The Sweet Spot (Optimal OC)

[James Stevens]

I have been slowly lowering voltages over time. I just started out with moderate voltages and set er at 3.88Ghz cause I new it would work. After I read this thread (when U first posted it) I turned HT off and have never looked back. All I do is game and listen to music. Cant remember my inital voltages but I am down around 1.15000v core and 1.21250v qpi/dram voltage (Asus board) My biggest concern was keeping the temps down before I could hit mid 80's easy, but now 70c is tops on a hot day.
