Spread is because I'm an impatient man, and I have other programs up (relatively non intrusive) during LinX. 100 passes is stable enough for me, I'll get back to you guys and eat my shorts if I have a single crash.
There we go, picked up another 870, L923B426T. Ram is loose because I increased 50mhz and wanted to exclude ram instability. Now to lower voltages, so far it looks stable at 1.25v vcore and 1.8v vPLL and 1.125 vPCH. Very good chip :D
Don't mind the temps, I have a feeling the IHS is either...
You see... going from socket 775 and my multitude of 4ghz chips, I can't help but see my epeen wilting at an alarming rate with this CPU.
Guess I need to figure something out, I recently picked up an 870 and resold it because it was only marginally better than this CPU... just my luck...
/facepalm. It's below Intel's max specification of 1.4v. It's also far below the TJmax of 100c.
My CPU is a mediocre clocker, I can't help that it needs alot of voltage to reach these speeds. When new, it was so comically convex, that on stock settings and stock cooler it reached 90c... It's...
