Just fooling around with my e8600 and wanted to see how low I could run stable @4Ghz.
I always thought the Core was suppose to run higher than VID.

I just wish I could OC with this board...if only the damn BIOS didn't corrupt each time and give me an "88" error code....RMA time once I get round to it lol :banghead:

VID is basically the default voltage, most likely vdroop has brought it lower in your case (cpu-z will report lower voltage than set in the bios), run superpi on it and likely that voltage will drop some more. Of course EIST and C1E can drop voltage as well, but it doesn't look like you have those going. In short, you can always undervolt if you want, it's especially nice when you gain some clockage as well.

par exampla:

This is a result of vdroop, EIST, and C1E. Almost 200mv below stock and 600mhz oc.

E6750 set to 3.4GHz for purpose of SS (425x8) and 1.32v in the BIOS and running Prime95 and Real Temp 2.60.


As you can see, not much droop at all...very stable in my view. :toast:



Time to RMA this damn DFI and get clocking this E8400 when it comes back!!! :rockout:


Edit: Pink background and XP layout is for my fiance, it isn't mine before you ask or wonder lol ( it looks like Vista but it isn't, before you say that too :) )
