Well I've only used 6core SB-E and they all came with a H80 FREE. Wasn't sure if the 4 core came with some sort of a stock cooler. Chill the tone, trying to help bud. You should more then likely try a different cooler then as yours if...

IGpu in Ivy is a lot better then the one in SB. I'm sure it's good to say that haswell's will be even better. You can play Dirt 3 on the iGpu on a Ivy chip in 1080p. Soon you won't really need a GPU Intel's hoping

It could be the C300 too. I had one of those (240gig) and seen same issues your taking about. I have 2 Vertex 3's now in Raid 0 and haven't seen it anymore. I was ruling out my 3 Gtx480's with that issue in games more than my SSD, but...

Did you get new standoffs with that cooler that support LGA2011? There's no way that cpu would even hit those temps with a stock cooler bud. You either don't have the right pressure on your cooler or it's not seating proper. Bottom line....

Can you monitor what your cpu is doing at the same time and see if it's going from 1.6ghz to 4.8ghz while that happens? From what you've said, I kinda think that your other 2 pc's you've tested probably didn't have Sandy Bridge cpus,...

Are you crashing at idle or at load? Offset can be tricky sometimes. You have to mess with LLC and you Offset to get the right idle and load voltage correct. I use manual with my 3930k and C3 & C6 Enabled for the best results. @ 4.5ghz I...

Does it run stable at +.015v @ 4.5ghz?

No reason to wait unless your married. If not, get your A$$ in gear and get er done There's always someone willing to buy your old hardware.

True, but there's nothing wrong with having a badass z68 or z77 platform that walks all over x58 or below. Anything less and your the one we're waiting for every time a match starts

Really? a 45nm quad could do what a 2nd or 3rd gen i5 or i7 can do? LOL. Pair a z68 or a z77 with a sata3 ssd and I think not. Boot in 15sec or less . Encode on handbrake, . Not bottleneck 2 7970's or 680's . Come on, these new cpu's...
