Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Kept it simple. I only adjusted vcore voltages, everything else is on auto. SS off and HT off. Ram profile is XMP at the stock voltage of 1.5v. I'm running 4.2 as I type :)
Mine's right about there too. I'm 4.2 @ 1.2875v, HT off, and at 100% load P95 I'm at around 70-72c.
How do you see your temps while playing a video game?
So i've been getting "Raid 0 Array Error" messages recently. When the system POSTS it also flags one of my raid drives in red with "error detected"
I've gone into the Intel Storage utility and cleared the fault/error and it went away for a while, and then yesterday it came back - Explorer...
yes, most people are referring to the single CPU temp. Not sure about the variance between the cores and the CPU temp. Yours seems to have quite a gap, mine is within 10c. Might want to try reseating the cooler and apply new TIM.
Yup, your temps look fine to me. Mine at 4.2ghz idles at about 35c and load about 71c, but I have Corsair H50 on the cpu.
I think your TRUE will be better.
Not sure what you really mean by "better", but in terms of sheer performace, the D14 wins in almost every review. Not by much, but maybe a couple degrees, but still performance is better than the X.
if you mean in terms of size and weight, then yes, the X is better than the D14 as the D14 is...
Easy, if you're going for the best air cooler, go with the Noctua D14. If you want similar performance and watercooling but don't want to pay big WC setup kind of money, go with a Corsair H50. Reviews for both of these are all over this forum.
Agree with most people here. You won't see much of a gain from switching to H50 in your current conditions. You need to drop the ambient temps with an AC. However, you should go to the H50 for the sheer cool factor ;-)
That's just my biased 2 cents.
I would like to see the [H] review too. But in the meantime, I have done a small review on the H50 in my i720 OC thread. It should add some perspective.

Yup, totally see where you're coming from. I'm still in the early stages of testing thoroughly, but I'll keep updating this thread as I go along.
What are your BIOS settings for 4.2?
[H]i guys,
So here's my first OC with the i720 platform. Haven't done any overclocking since the Opteron days and only recently retired that machine for this setup. I know I'm a little late to the i720 game, but thought I'd atleast contribute to the archives.
Ok, so my system specs are in...
I had the same BSOD issue where it would BSOD during prime even when the system was at stock speeds. The P6T when left to Auto for the ram timings, set the timings too aggressive (8-8-8-20 if I remember correctly). I did one of two things as either way will work; I set the ram profile to XMP or...
First reset your bios to default, save and exit.
1) Change blck to 150
2) Change ram profile to XMP
3) Check and make sure voltage is at spec (in your case should be 1.5v)
4) LEAVE EVERYTHING ELSE AS IS - READ: AUTO
5) Save and exit
I have the P6T and thats exactly what I did. But now...
