@TAGG Around what would be the best on air, before scaling is considered?

My 6,15GHz X5690 does 4,55 1,3V making it my best chip, the 3rd 6GHz R15 chip (X5660 3152A970) does 4,45Ghz air but has coldbug of -160 so you can just bruteforce it

One more X5690 is comming up on LN2 one of these days, allso does 4,55 / 1,3V so i have hopes for it being a 6GHz r15 chip as well

Absolutely insane, what did this do on air?

Not too crazy, 4,5Ghz R15 @ 1,3V BIOS,  but chip scales crazy good, might be limited by NB and/or RAM but didn't think about that while benching, there should be plenty of Vcore headroom, if it scales (run was at 1,7V BIOS)

Let's see if i can be bothered, got boards and coupple dozen chips but no real motivation for air clocking, was hoping for unlimited cooling (got 60l on standby)

I'd assume that running the board without any capacitor is better than with that long wire due to noise? 

There are 6 10uF MLCCs under there to cope with that issue

Does it also work with many PSUs and allow to set any Vmch value in the BIOS without crashing now?

Have only 2 PSUs works on both, from 1,25 to 1,45 it is no problem, will test more once i have that heatsink on

BTW, might have killed the 2nd one, had it working perfectly, but then i tried to reinstall the original Fujitsu cap, which worked after the 3rd try, but now it doesn't recognize power button, i think the heatcycles might have killed the NB... Initial problem with the 2nd one was shorted capacitor on Vnb if it interrests you

EDIT, Board one tested to 1,65V seems back in bussiness, but nb filtering looks like this now

EDIT2: The board i mentioned i killed lives again, but VRM is allso dead again

don't want to play clever or something but the circled area looks oxidized to me.

That was the problem indeed, reflowed the corroded looking VRM controller and the board appears to work fine, just have to put back the Fusitsu cap, after checking if it is good

[Losing a memory channel]

My asrock Extreme 11 did the same(for me it was D chanel), cleaning the socket wth some contact cleaner did the job

Otherwise try bone stock settings and see if it returns, some boards loose mem channels, but usually that's because of high BCLK, which surely isn't the issue with R4E...

I have one win 7 install where it doesn't happen, not sure why though... Easiest was for me is to use X58A-OC boot low multi high BCLK and then raise multi in OS

Did you try many or just a random bin? I tried two 9590s recently and both were worse than normal 83x0

Just random pick,

Thanks guys, now i'll go back to intel (after one more 8350)

I'm just running it cause somehow i can't POST over 330MHz FSB on any x48 i tried so far... Seems OK

Sorry my mate, but cinebench screenie rules have changed a bit since you last benched :( You have to show the whole rendering now, so no cpu-z in front of it :)

You can bug it in the other direction as well if that helps as motivation to fix it, lowering bclk raises multi to impossible levels (see attached pic)

Honestly can't wait that the point relevant bench isn't 3.2 anymore... Because i have spent countless hours trying to get 3.2 to either save the file without crashing or displaying hwinfo correctly, while 3.3 allways just worked for me...
