August 5, 201411 yr Kind of neat Very weird chip behaviour though compared to R15, had it been the other way around I'd understand.
August 5, 201411 yr Yes. It feels stable, can run CB15 at much higher frequency, does not bsod, just crashes - sometimes even immediately. It's not the HT link, RAM or NB frequency. If I drop the cpu multi it will run, so it's the cpu. And it's the same in 3 different sessions. Hope that's enough for this stage though. Maybe I could try XP x64 next time.

August 7, 201411 yr Wiz, is that for CB11.5 only or in general? You told me before, but I don't remember. Because it does way higher frequency for other benchmarks, while for CB11.5 higher vcore makes things worse. For example it crashes on the same 6480 with 1.8V. It also feels very stable - I can do whatever I want in OS - unpack zip files, run CB15 all day long, but it simply crashes in CB11.5. Spent a lot of time to get that 6480 run. HT Ref is not a problem, because I can boot even at 500 and most of my scores are done with HT Ref set in bios and direct boot to OS. For example that 6940 validation was done with direct boot at 496 HT Ref. Couldn't make 497x14 no matter what - tried direct 497 boot or with setfsb in os - black screeb and restart. I set multi with K10stat, ofcourse. For 7GHz I would need 500x14 and that was not possible. Maybe with 1.95+ V on the cpu...I don't know. Edited August 7, 201411 yr by I.nfraR.ed
August 7, 201411 yr In general... BUT, last time, I switch to my old OS, the one I use everyday on my computer, and I don't know why but it can boot with hight HTT.... crazy, I try 3 seven, no go, I take an old one with lot of programme... and it work. So try on other one.... or XP 64
