Massman I saw big difference between 3DMark 2001 SE scores, but i thought results depend from tweeks(LOD, Drivers, etc). Good notice, thanks. If I will be able I check your theory with MSI and ASUS board
Becouse it isn't normal when you set Vcore 1.6v, but multimetr or cpu-z show 1.63V(I've had the same issue with MSI P67A-GD55
1Day- flashing memory is pretty simple. I dont know it supported by P67, but SPDTool or Thaiphoon Burner worked great with "old" chipset like x58/p55/x48 etc. With AMD they also worked great.
My 2600K is very hot. wprime 1024 gave me evaporator temp ~ -10C, normal idle with my ss -50 -55C.
P.S. Looks like if you have cpu which can boot with 55 multi you're lucky.

I think it was max result for this cpu.
I've got the same issue with MSI GD55
I' ve tested with SS ~50C, 55 multi was possible, with water only 54 multi was possible. Board or cpu worked strange with good memory(it didn't work with tight timings). Looking for best cpu and board
Anybody knows the programm which can change timings at OS?
