March 26, 201412 yr Author Thank you everyone for good words! At first live session was intended just to show local fellow overclockers how it is all about extreme overclocking in live and was expecting to jump just over my previous set 7999 MHz but then my old Maximus Formula begin making wonders... Booted flawlessly @ 8000 MHz and made this result possible. Very strong MB despite its age, RMA years ago and a bit high voltage lover chipset. FARID Did not have multimeter at hand unfortunately but MB had huge Vdroop definitely. BIOS set 2.15000V CPU-Z reported 1.95V. When set 2.25000 in BIOS, CPU-Z did not recognize voltage at all. Tried setting 2.27500 too in BIOS but stability got worse. Also, setting Loadline Calibration to ON gave worse results regarding stability. TaPaKaH Dunno really I only have stock Box cooler for LGA775, did not try pushing it on air but I'm sure it will do good on air too, very decent batch it is. As of LN2, no CB or CBB even @ -188-190 degrees.
