Can boot at 1.25 4GHz.
Can linx at 190x20 or 200x19 at 1.3ish

tried up to 1.45 for a 205x20

Might have been stable I dont know after first test temp hit 90C so I killed it powered down and there she sits

Time to bust out the 25' VGA cable and bluetooth wireless desktop suite and window mount this bench station I think (after I complete rip down reseating/pasting of the sinks. IOH and CPU)

Might be a good idea to start looking into water cooling too
90șc is ok for short bench sessions, but its a bit more than what I like to see in real temp.

Just PMed yah back.

And in the time it took to hit send and the new posts button I want the pump LOL

Just need to come up with the money. Looking at finding a way to budget upgrade to the R2E also, by grabbing an open box one they were on newegg for about $230 before there is a ful lretail one on ebay for $330 (I cant afford that though.. not until I have a means to cool my CPU further, well still cant afford it... but dunno might be worth selling off my AMD 920 :o if it gets me a good board and WC setup lol
