1.28 idle, 1.26 load :S that's not right is it?

Haha, well those are your actual voltages. No wonder you were having a hrd time OCing lol. You should be able to do 4.4ghz easily then.

I did it with 1.292V on idle/load (no difference after a pencil mod). Try bumping it up so it's 1.29V under load and see how it fares. Mine had a low VID, but I'm sure you can do it waaaaay under the max safe voltage.

E8600 <3 I miss it

When people say they have a certain clock speed at a certain voltage. Do they say teh voltage they set in BIOS or the voltage that appears in windows?

I have 1.38v in BIOS but only 1.28 in Windows CPUZ

Voltage in windows

There's always a vdroop.

This whole time I was readying from BIOS. Not wanting to go over 1.36 little did i know, was barely hitting 1.28 in Windows.

Wow, that's some massive vdroop here... thank you whoever found the pencil mod for the P5B Deluxe

I don't have loadline calibration on though

IMO, if you're exceeding 70 degrees Cel on Prime95 blend, lower your volts and OC a little bit for 24/7 use. That's what I usually base my final OC on, not the volts but the temps under load.

I actually have a v-droop thread somewhere on here. Haven't seen it be .1 volt droop though. I also don't use Loadline calibration, part of me says not to use it because Intel specifies not to, and the other half says don't use it from my Emags background with transmission lines and that trying to get the nominal impedence of a line can change with how fast things run on it, so no LLC for me!
