That's better, I've been able to lock the CPU to 4.2GHZ with DRAM set to 1600MHz.
Previously it would only lock with the DRAM set to auto which was 1333MHz.
I think it's the new BIOS v1205.
What temps you getting idle and load?
On a normal day...
0% Load 28 °C
50% Load 40 °C
100% Load 60 °C
Attachment 1008
All case and rad fans set at 1200RPM, except the from 140mm fan which is at 1050RPM so I can't hear a thing.
mines 37c idle and the last time i ran prime95 i'm sure it was high 70s lol......obviously different chips etc. :(
Yeah, Spook says he's getting 90 deg C on air on his Haswell. Not sure what clock speeds he's running though.
I think he'll be getting H100 too.
90c is high even for air.....also depends what voltage hes putting through it........sometimes you have to reseat the chip to get it right?.....i just used the paste that was on the H100i, maybe i should have scraped it off and used some MX3?
Yeah I used MX-4, they say 3 is better but I like 4 for spreadability.
I don't know if the TIM Corsair uses is their own or a rebrand.
Yeah when reseating I use the 2 stage Arctic silver TIM removal kit. Though I saw a one stage TIM removal the other day but I haven't tried it yet.
Indigo Xtreme Clean
I just use Tim cleaner. :)
Right, slightly different overclock...
4.2GHz 42x100
Min Cache 39
Max Cache* 42
Core Voltage 1.198 (reading from CPU-Z) set to auto in BIOS.
DDR: 1600
And I haven't seen the cache move from 4.2GHz, so lets see how this goes :up:
* See cache speed in CPU-Z -> Memory -> NB Frequency
@ 4ghz
Idle: 39
Load: 67
@4.2 Ghz
Idle: 42
Load 71
@ 4.3 Ghz
Idle: 49
Load 77 - 81
@ 4.4 Unstable for now.

I've decided I'm going to add a second GTX 770 to this build in the next few days.
It'll be the first time since the 8800GTX I've done a SLI setup for myself.
I will post some pictures when it gets here :up:
Thinking about it I may not post pictures straight away as I might wait till I have a backplate and EVGA Pro bridge.
You only need one backplate for the top one....the other one you can send to me. :)
