    5960X Overclocking - Complete Dog?

    Have you tried with XMP disabled?

    Auto will decide what you need based on load. Adaptive mode allows you to dial in a core voltage of your choosing and will lower it at idle. The CPU will still draw extra voltage if it doesn't have enough under load.

    That's right.

    If you have an Asus board, VIN4 in Hwmonitor will tell your min-max core voltage.

    Yes, running stock clock on Auto is fine for everyday use. Adaptive mode will require a manual core voltage set but clocks down when idle much like Auto. Running synthetic tests in Auto or Adaptive modes is not recommended and will not yield any desirable results other than to tell you your...

    XTU will show as Adaptive even though default settings are all Auto.

    1.32v seems awful high for 45x. Are you on Auto or Adaptive mode?

    At 4.2GHz you could drop vcore even further.

    Yes it will. It doesn't matter what voltage mode you set. If your Power Plan in Windows is set to 'Balanced' your core clock will drop to 0.8 Ghz at idle and boost to 4.4Ghz at load.

    I recommend testing in Manual mode. Adaptive with P95 adds way too much voltage and heat. Once you find you stability you can switch back to Adaptive.

    Awesome, I've heard these X Vietnam chips are pretty good.

    Room temp was around 16C when I took the screenshot. I also have a Kraken X61. My idle is usually 25C when the room warms up.

    I have the Corsair Vengeance Pro 2x8GB kit. At 47x and lower I can run System Agent on Auto but at 48x I needed to offset to 1.20v to run XMP at 2400MHz. I am in Manual mode. CPU, Cache, Input and System Agent are all manually dialed in. If you have EIST enabled and Balanced is selected in your...

    Here's how my Vietnam chip performs with the Hero. Your results may vary of course: 44x 1.10v 45x 1.135v 46x 1.18v 47x 1.21v 48x 1.275v 49x 1.29v Can Post but haven't tested. 50x 1.35v Can Post but haven't tested. XMP is enabled running at 2400MHz. You can see why from 47x to 48x took some...
