March 8, 201313 yr You definitely should not need 1.40V for 4.2GHz. Have you tried lower? 1.35V? 1.325V?
March 8, 201313 yr I7 965 and 975 are rubbish processors. Overclocker like crap 965, yeah... It was a C0 chip. The 975s are D0 and overclock very well for Bloomfield. They should do 4.2-4.5GHz for 24/7 with no issue. They don't do the 4.7-5GHz that we see today with Ivy, but they're not bad by any means.

March 9, 201313 yr I7 975 XE are clocking really nicely, but need high vcore;) But 1,4 for 4,2 seems me too high. And the Giga X58 UD Series are no good to clock Chips good, especially uncore:D
