Well i had to format my system because of this: http://forum.oc-forums.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=141406 (anyone wanna help me w/ why this happened?)
so i will not be able to overclock this processor until tomorrow because i gotta reinstall EVERYTHING and make backups of my other partitions just for safety.
been runnin prime 95 at 1.7v for a while just to give this a little burn in and get the artic silver to settle. (default v is 1.5v)
before installin the processor i lapped the AX7 at 600grit w/ good results:
also, i removed the POS northbridge heatsink and fan and put on a nice vantec iceberg. the stock thermal grease that didnt even cover 1/4 of the chip...
like stated i will update results tomorrow of maybe even later tonight if i get the chance.
btw, the cpu IS unlocked factory default for all of you disbelievers. i got a KX7-333
