Having mixed results on my OC'd X5675. I can get 4.6 without breaking a sweat, but getting aida64/linx/prime stable is another thing entirely. Im thinking the culprit is my ram and/or voltages. I have read mixed feelings about what my uncore should be set at. 1.5, 1.875, 2.0. If you have any...

Im really happy with my current Rampage II extreme board, thing has taken everything I can throw at it and more. It supports my current i7 920 build, OCd to 4.2ghz and 24gb of ram at @1900 mHz. Currently on a 240 radiator custom loop from xspc. I will be super happy if I can get this chip up to...

Pulled the trigger, bought up an X5675. Here is hoping it arrives in good order and I can squeeze a good amount of juice out of it.

Yes, im not looking at an engineering sample. But before i was looking at a 5675 vs 5680ES at same price point, now im looking at a W3690 vs X5680 (mainstream) at same price point. So many choices.

ok, ok. last question. I plan on using 24gb of ram, so the W3690 is an option at the same price-point as an X5680 on the eBay. So, what say you gentle-bots? can i trust the W3690 IMC to not shit the bed on 24GB of ram (Max Spec for that processor) or just go for the X5680. It seems the W3690s...

Thanks, thats what I figured. Zoson, I have been slowly working through this thread's 35 pages. as well at the 30+ pages over at overclockers. Just trying to get opinions from those who have worked with it. Ill try and finish this thread tonight

5680 is an engineering sample just found out, im hesistant about those. Not sure what the ES's did or did not have on the xeon product lineup Edit** Just found some differences, not sure if lack of turbo might cause overclock instability on the chip or not. Main Release Engineering Sample

lets say i have the opportunity to buy a 5675 or a 5680 at the same price point, whats to make me choose one over the other? 5675's came out a year after the 5680, and 5680 has slightly higher clock and higher tdp at 130w vs 95w. If you were me, and you have a solid water cooling set up on an...

what are the OC potential of 32 gigs of this stuff in a RIVE at 1.5v? 2000+ low timings? anyone have similar setup with 8 sticks of this stuff?

anyone have any success running 32gb of this on an 8 dimm mb?

From what i have seen, Amazon has either Amazing deals or price gouges the crap out of you
