I could not get the full picture as one of the sticks went bad. Don't have equally good spare, so I guess it's high time for per-IC binning or at least replace the worst ICs of the stock sticks as each of them have 1 to 3 weaker ICs.
Thanks! This kit needed 1.65 vddq for these settings. Can't do 8800 gdm on with this cpu and 8700 is on the edge of benching stability, so I opted for highest gdm off instead. TRCD 45 was also on the edge, perhaps it would run reliably with a bit colder ambient.
It's a very nice score, indeed. IIRC my target at 5.4 was around 16.400, but you're close and I haven't tested recently with a bit higher mem clocks.
tRFC 460 at this clock is pretty good, too.
Yeah, there's no such thing as category by OS, everyone runs their OS of choice (presumably the fastest one). The only thing that matters is the final score for the given VGA (and sometimes for global rankings).
