nope it was pre binned by a reliable source. I couldn't even do 4800 on neither of my 3 boards... 4500Mhz 1.2Vcore was okayish. No idea what is wrong... either this CPU degraded heavily or it was a dud from the start...
Who's to blame, that's the million dollar question... I am not pointing any fingers... but honestly something is wrong with Haswell sigh...
I think I can do a one or two secs less with a good copy wazaa, but I need more bclock to achieve this...
Honestly for a notorious fail OCer like me, this is quite okay I need Massaaaaman for some Pi tweaks
CPU is not bclocking at all Sam under cold. Very hard as once it crashes the setup is a goner. No longer posting... error codes 19-30-60, you name it, it iwll show it. Also bclocking in windows results in hard freezes...
