Hi,

 

thought I'd post my findings with 5x 2600K here. First the CPUs:

 

 

 

 

 

 

The results of 5 CPUs (4C/8T):

 

1 bad CPU

 

47x100 ~without internal PLL voltage override

50x100 ~1.48V no boot with PLLv tweak

 

1 ok CPU

 

49x100 ~1.38V without internal PLL voltage override

 

3 good CPUs

50x100 ~1.38V without internal PLL voltage override

 

For finding good CPUs you need 50x100 with 1.4V or less booting then your chip has potential I would say. For all day find chips that run cool - I had differences of 5-10°C per Chip with same paste and cooler. But the cooler chips didn't ran that well

Batch of all 2600K I had: L040B165

Thank you.

Thanks for posting SoF :toast:

Thanks SoF. I'll check your info when 2600k will be available in Ukraine.
