December 10, 201113 yr Author Testing another 60X chip. First one didn't even do DDR3-2400; this one is at least booting at DDR3-2400 . Okay, decent one: 5500MHz on the CPU, 1250MHz Memory. FYI, I found there is a way to bin the CPU on air. I tested it with this CPU and it worked like I expected. What you need to do: - go in bios and set all VRM config like you'd do for extreme OC - run 2c2t (to save heat) - set vcore to 1.55~1.6V - set bclk to 100 Now, increase the CPU ratio. In the beginning, you will be able to boot straight in to OS. After a while, it will crash at OS loading (for W7, it will lock at the ball swinging moment), but when pressing the reset button, the board will reboot. This means it can run this frequency with better temps! Once you lock and pressing reset doesn't work, you've found the maximum frequency of your CPU. In my case, I could always reset from lock-up upto 55x. With 56x, I could not reset and had to power off the entire setup. The end result was 5510MHz for my CPU under LN2.
December 10, 201113 yr he's a junior bin man lol nickshih is the magic hand? i forgot but massman can't be nickshih! i remember mm posting 3d01 bits @ ocx and he's pretty good doing methods right or wrong lol
December 11, 201113 yr Thanks for the guide, Massman! Though since I don't have a way to go sub-zero, I can't fully test your method. For what it's worth, I'm under water and was able to reset up to 55x. Anything higher and I had to power down/power up. Kudos to the pattern recognition and for sharing! Now to see if I can get at least 5.3GHz stable.

December 12, 201113 yr The method is correct. Even I do it! Good job for the community Massman Small note: with 125 blck I get a little 'more Okay, decent one: 5500MHz on the CPU, 1250MHz Memory.

December 12, 201113 yr Author FYI - You can just start testing at 5100. Pretty much all SBE chips will do 5100+.
December 13, 201113 yr I sure hope its correct. 57x no go, 56x... reset. Now I hope to get this one chilly soon. EDIT: 2 56x chips with this method. Under a terribly outpowered SS (Barely kept it at 0C at idle!!), I boot 52x and knocked out a quick Wprime 32M which then took the temps to 30C... LOL so I stopped, since Im not insulated at all.....

December 13, 201113 yr Author Is that with the R4E or another board? With R4E I'm 100% sure it works. With the other boards, I'm not at all.
December 13, 201113 yr Author Either you're insanely lucky, or the method doesn't work on UD7 I'll install the board today
December 13, 201113 yr Im betting the latter sadly... Luck is rarely with me... Looking forward to see if known chips exhibit the same behavior on UD7. I will be going cold (Dry Ice) with these 12/21 so I will see then. Dear baby jebus... please let this method work for the UD7 and me be extremely lucky... PLEASE!!!!! It did exhibit the same behaviors you described as far as not resetting and needing POR.
December 14, 201113 yr you gave me something to look forward to Massman:) (i should get my new ss from dimastech next week, as my cooler express died:( with this method I get the windows loading screen to freeze up from 52x upwords but to 54x i can just reset with the button, with 55x and higher i have to power down. Thats with the MSI gd65 8d
December 14, 201113 yr batch #: 3133B684 i can reset up to x56 but x57 will not reset. so this cpu can possibly run 5.6 under cold?
