Have tried Vtt upto 1.36V, and System Agent upto 0.975. I am ready to pull out my hair at this point, air overclocking seems more difficult than LN2 overclocking at the moment to me. No point in having a chip which cannot clock memory.

not that I have seen, sandy bridge IMC is amazing. you are at 6-6-6 900+ and calling it bad IMC?!$@#? Use 2133 and 7-7-7 is faster though. Def need dual channel, maybe you have a bad stick or the board doesn't like 1gb sticks of hyper

my settings for binning

1.575vCore
0.875vCCSA
1.1875vCCIO
1.7vDIMM
1.15vPCH

Starting at 52, increase multi by 1 and boot. Hit a wall and increase vCore, still walled, decrease bclk...then throw it in the garbage with the 20 other chips suck ballz
