Maybe you're being a little rough eh? The kid's trying to help out a little. He's not an extreme overclocker (hell, I'm not). He hasn't messed with every pc platform known to man. He hasn't read every thread about every oc adventure. Maybe he doesn't know that hardware limitations morph from generation to generation. And maybe he didn't bother posting about his 8.7GHz P4 because it wasn't possible for him to run it like that for any period of time, thus it was irrelevant.

Why are we still discussing P4's or who's does what in this thread? Please move to the OP's topic, and stay there.

How did that work? Did you lower any clockspeeds or anything?

Only thing I modified was the CPU VCore, same clocks at 25x176MHz.

That voltage is fine for that chip, imo.

I just got my i7 920 running last week and I haven't gone nuts with it

Bear in mind that the i7 920 is based on 45nm manufacturing process (Nehalem), while the i7 980 is based on a 32nm node (Gulftown).


Anyway anything up to 1.45v is safe for 32nm on my book just keep temperatures in check.

True, but it's still the same chipset. Same everything, other than the processor's oc capability and temps.

Please limit your self to what you know and stop doing double post. You are a pxxn in this forum. You do not need to reply to all post, I for one would rather see that stay within your 13 year limit and keep quiet until you are asked.

Send me to my room mom?:laugh:it won't work because i am already in my room:laugh:,but really i wan't to know what you can do?
