Fixing mobo with grease in socket
Yeah, no toothbrush for me either. Acetone would work but I avoid it because it melts plastics

Buying binned HW
Well since the 100 galax kits were called for the first day a lot of people decided not to buy once the price was released, myself included. The demand obviously isn't great since they still had kits available earlier today and for that kind of money guys who know ram expect a minimum of 4080c12 with 49/6/50/6 rtl's but are hoping for 4080-4133c12-11 waza stable under 1.95v real

ASRock Z170M OCF funhouse
GtiJason replied to Splave's post in a topic in Skylake/Kaby Lake/Coffee Lake (-X) (Z170/Z270/Z370/X299) OCThanks for sharing your experiences with them. 2.15v bios seems crazy high, I know mine would set real volts to 2.20 + and some may set it closer to 2.25v real. Farthest I've set mine was 2.05v real and they were fine, but only ran 32m once. I've noticed similar results as you with tCKE and tRFC but never tried below 190 yet since I run 4133 most of the time and 200 can give them trouble with some benchmarks.

I think you are looking at this all wrong, which is understandable because you are a newb. If you break the ambient comp down it is very possible to win the entire thing with an i3 and only subbing in 2 of 3 stages. They actually did a good job when taking everything into consideration, this would have been a dream comp when I was an Ambient OC'r not long ago. Maybe you bought hardware that was too expensive for this contest.- ASRock Z170M OCF funhouse

GtiJason replied to Splave's post in a topic in Skylake/Kaby Lake/Coffee Lake (-X) (Z170/Z270/Z370/X299) OC1.25 & 1.30 are the sweet spot for me, but sometime as high as 1.35v on both can help.

Why not try 1.4v @ 4800 air bin on lin, Roman obviously found at least one gem so there's probably more ? Seems like a smart idea when he sold it for $1200+ and those rejects go for $450 give or take EDIT sorry Gunny just realised this was for sale post, lmk if i should delete- ASRock Z170M OCF funhouse
GtiJason replied to Splave's post in a topic in Skylake/Kaby Lake/Coffee Lake (-X) (Z170/Z270/Z370/X299) OCI've had similar things happen to me, usually happens to me from switching mounts. I think it's because of all the changes in pressure and temps can cause issues. My pot is heavy (kpe f1ee dark), my SS is hart to tell how tight it is, then I also use water occasionally and air for quick tests using 3 different backplates. I just remove cpu hold down and start from scratch rebuilding. I've noticed if just the 3 standard torx screws are too tight my board will curve, add a heavy pot or a lot of pressure and the pcb is leterally being pulled up... away from the cpu socket. SKL pcb is so weak that it just needs to be slightly askew to cause problems- Fund Raiser For Pulse88 & Rosty - Let's Be A Proper Community!
