My luck with my i7 920 was shit. 4.65 in 32m. I have three more coming but the first two were awful.

what temps and voltage?

edit: you are stuck at 221, any chance you aren't in slow mode and your pcie is untouched? you need roughly bclk*0.45 pcie to get beyond 221ish BCLK (eg 118 for 261)

I was running 115 pcie and slowmode. I was able to get cpu up to 250 bclk with the multi dropped. 

damn, thats a really bad core. I usually wouldn't even bother testing further if a chip can't do 32m at 21*214 with 1.4V on air, and even then its a tough sell to bother taking cold, currently I don't bother with anything that can't do 4.5/1.3V, for 920s and W3520s 4.5/1.25V now that I've binned a decent number of chips.

 

If anyone wants to get into 1366 xeons, in particularly the 32nm low multiplier ones - don't buy batches from 2010. I just went through over 100 of them tonight and only 2 could do 250+ bclk on air. With batches from 2011 I had close to 50% of tested chips manage that...

There is also a chance I just do not know what I am doing. I am going to buy a prebinned chip to see if I can get the same or at least close results to see if it is me doing something wrong or if the chip was just bad.

Does anyone have any binning data on hypers for 775. I am able to pick up 8 sticks for 20$ and am planning on testing them for lowest voltage required for 6-6-6 900 mhz, is this a good way to bin them or should I try something else.

I need to know your source that allows you to get 8 kits for $20....... 

 

Try 7-7-6-20 @1.65v 32M stability and work from there :)

A local cl listing, I think they must looked up the cost of ddr3 and don't realize what kits they have. They are Kingston ones and I have heard that they are not the best but for 20$ I can't pass that up.

yeah 7-7-6 1.65V, also with how much voltage they scale as well as max freq with trcd 6 and trcd 7. Some kits can do trcd 7 at ~1120 on ambient but thats pretty rare. tRCD 6 the highest I've managed on ambient was 995 32M though I'm sure more is possible with better sticks.

8 Sticks for $20 is even cheaper than what i paid for mine :D

Are they 2k or 2133 sticks?

Killer deal anyways :)

2k I think I will check when I get out of class. I think two of them were 1866 which I think are bbse. How does bbse compare to hypers?

You're looking for ~1.25V for 5GHz in SuperPi 32M/wPrime 32m for the really good ones. But then you also need to hope that is has a good CB/CBB.
