Well yours will most likely vary, but for curiosities sakes, I had to use 1.44v

OK thanks. I appreciate your input. I'll probably run it linked after what tK FuRY showed me. I was just wondering if there were any drawbacks and apparently there are. Thanks again though. +rep to you too.

Yeah sure, when run unlinked on a board with a Nvidia chipset and don´t use the well known Intel chipset DDR2 Memory Dividers like 1:1, 6:5, 5:4, 4:3, 3:2, 8:5, 5:3, and 2:1 there´s is a sacrifice because Nvidia chipset hold more Memory Dividers then Intel chipset does and some are not good, performance wise.

On a board with Nvidia chipset divider 1:1 is very good but not that good on a board with Intel chipset, why, I don´t no in detail but Nvidia have found a way to bring down the MCH Read Delay (tRD) better then Intel.

On a board with Intel chipset on the other hand any divider other then 1:1 is better because one can run lower tRD on the other dividers (6:5, 5:4, 4:3, 3:2, 8:5, 5:3, and 2:1) and Intel chipset just love high ram MHz.

Here´s some interesting articles about it, this one and this one.

Those are idle temps

Look at his system specs. It says 40*C load, 20*C idle. http://www.overclock.net/system.php?i=38047

Run the same clocks if linked or unlinked so why is running linked/unlinked an issue?

The squirrel said 1066Mhz vs 975Mhz. The squirrel has bad math. But unlinked you could use his 1:1 divider (ratio?). Then maybe tweak from there. Ask did he use the same timings? No he didn't.
Open your eyes? You trust a squirrel drinking a Guinness? To make clear you can
Consider?

No his results clearly point out that using a divider beats running unlinked (even if the RAM runs faster). Although I really don't know about the timings part so you have a point there. Personally it's not a problem for me if I run linked. I would actually prefer to even if there were no benefits just so I feel that the system is running in sync, not whacked out LOL. I was just wondering what the rules are with overclocking and running unlinked and since there doesn't really seem to be anything special I guess my question is answered.

Yes IMO

Nope they are LOAD temps.


My CPU sensors are stuck @ 28 22C, but ive had my old E8400 read @ 19C idle. Just because my ambient is a beast! Right now its a smidget high @ 20.14C

Ill run a quick P95 Small FFT or you can go here

http://www.overclock.net/intel-cpus/...res-sorry.html


and heres a picture from my 18.8C freezing my ass off session. Oh and my fans are on 15-25%



*Random one*




Yes i did . 5-5-5-15 thank you very much. the everest ^ is from a long time ago, would you like me to run a quick right now?

I know it's slighty off topic but can you do me a favor and run Intel Burn Test (Click Here) and show me your CPU temps with HWMonitor (Click Here).

Use "Maximum" setting for 5 passes.

God i hate IBT , can I use LinX? lol. even though temps will be slightly higher than 40C maybe 50C

and TBH, i don't know how stable this new OC of mine is right now either lol


Ill post back once im done.
