Hey everyone,
Long story short, I RMA'd my original i7-2600K in hopes to get a better OC'er as my original couldn't hit 5Ghz no matter how much vCore I through at it.
The replacement processor I got is a Costa Rica version and can hit 5Ghz stable on 1.44 vCore. What is strange is that the temps hit 75 - 77C load.... and I'm under water.
Does that seem strange to anyone? Could it be because it's on the Maximus board, or maybe because it's from the CR plant and not Malay?
My other processor on the M4E would load at about 65C running at 4.9 with about 1.48 vCore.
Thoughts?
