It's actually really nice here. 82° and sunny, with about a 20MPH wind..
(It's nice I actually get to brag about OUR weather for once. Normally we have the crappiest/most active weather in the nation.) |

Hey KK,
You are right about the v droop on this mobo. On the bios I got it up to 1.375v but on cpuz it barely shows 1.325v
Unfortunately I only got it to 9x340=3060mhz. I don't think I want to increase the voltage and fsb since it is within my cpu temp tolerance. I'm running prime95 on all cores right now and see if she is stable before I start crunching. Maybe in the morning if it is still running fine.  An oc is better than no oc.

Are you just running a stock cooler on that E? Or are you running the coolermaster?
What are your temps?
Really, you can take your chip up to lower 60's, and it'll run fine. Absolute max is 72°c. Same with the v-core. Max most go on air is 1.5v. On H20 I've seen people running 1.6-1.7volts, which is damn scary if you ask me.
The only reason I get as good OC as I do on my boards with V-droop is because I up the v-core A LOT. But really, if your think about it, if they never hit the set v-core in BIOS, then your fine right?
On my EVGA board, my v-core is set to 1.53v, in windows at idle it shows 1.42, and under load it actually goes up (  ) to 1.46. |
