We are certainly willing to help you, but you really should follow that link and come back with questions. Also, you should not ask for specific bios settings to get you to a certain clock. i7's are a different kind of beast. Each individual chip can need vastly different settings.

Thanks champ, i appreciate the help, will check the link out, i was only asking for different views on overclocking this chip not exact settings, i know thats not possible, will let you know of my results and send in screenies of cpuz ect!?:ohwell:
 
I was just about to ask. "Where do we start to help" Yeah bro, come back with some questions if not this will turn into a disaster :toast:

Thanks binge & Paul
 
Why do they put a floppy and ide header on a $350 board? :shadedshu

Why wouldn't they? Legacy support is important to a lot of people.
 
New PB for SP 32M i7 920 D0.

Vcore probably could be lower, RAM is still on stock volts :)

I won't argue that, but I would disagree at a $350 price point. There may be a few, but I would expect them to be the minority when it comes to spending $350 on a new motherboard. I could maybe see the IDE, but definitely not the floppy.
 
Good job Daniel. 5Ghz :respect:
 
Thanks

BTW I can also run other multi-threaded benchmarks at that speed too, again that vcore is most likely over kill.

3dmark 06 really loves cpu speed. amazing run bro :respect:
 
How many passes at max problem size on LinX ? Just curious...

that OC is not prime/occt stable lol ;)

I don't give a fuck if I can run some gay stability tests. All I do is bench with my i7 pc, thats it, hence if it can run 3D 06 or whatever benchmark i'm wanting to run thats all I need :)

+1 for that.
Whats the batch # on that chip?
 
My batch is 3914A IIRC.
 
said it before and I'll say it again BATCH DOESN'T MATTER

People just don't want to believe it. I can't tell you how many times it's been said, but people still ask.
