So far failsauce on DICE. Nothing but post code 70 (PCH DXE initialization started) all night. Thoughts?

1:00am here and I'm calling it. I only improved on one bench, pifast. W/prime = fail and super pi = fail. I had a better Super pi 32 run but it froze when I was saving the pic. Taiserver OS = fail. XSOS OS = fail. Sandybridge = fail. They are hell of fun chips clocking on air but are way hit and miss when frozen. I think mines sweet spot was around -20. Any cooler and it got wonky. Postcode 70 all night to the point I about thru the mobo out the window. I tried everything I had and couldn't get it. Don't have the money to bin for a better one so I'll keep what I have for the gamer. Threw a 05 and 06 bench in at the last minute for a quick 10 points, rofl. Moving on to AMD for a while. Cheaper, slower but not as silly when frozen. Oh and newest cheap multimeter was crap as well. That is three in a row and $75 later. $25 more and I could of had a good one. Time to break down and buy a good one I guess. Just going with a thermometer this time.
