What programs are those? I used CPU-Z, and for a short time I used Easytune 6 which was unstable but the vcore readings matched what was in CPU-Z.

CPUZ 1.60.1, HWiNFO64 3.96.1640.

Sin, do you think adjustments should be made to correct those little overages? Knowing that most people do fine and have no idea what their real volts are, maybe not.. but I want to have an advantage with this board. smile.gif

Huh, I'm using CPU-Z 1.60.1 64Bit and getting the wrong temps vs multimeter.

It couldnt' hurt to try to re-apply the paste. If you take it off you can see how well it spread onto the cpu. I remember you mentioning you're using MX-2. I'm currently using that as well and it's really thick. I've applied more than usual using it to get full coverage. People say you should fill in the gap between the pipes as well.

Be sure to clean it really well and make sure you don't have any dust or small hairs on it. That, air bubbles and having just enough paste can really effect the performance. Good luck.

My understanding is that large FFTs put more stress on the RAM, whereas the small FFTs stress the CPU. You might want to try relaxing your memory settings. You could try running at the default 1333 MHz to see if it helps.

Just flashed F7 last night and could not get into bios. On a couple of attempts I'd get partially drawn bios screen, or no mouse function. Going back to F6 for now. Not sure if anyone else having any problems with this bios but just wanted to post my experience with it.

Update: It was not F7 that was the problem. The problem was if I had my joystick plugged into one of the rear usb 3.0 ports (didn't try the 2.0 - rear) I would not be able to get access to the bios. my joystick is a Logitech Wingman Extreme Digital 3D.

Even with F6 sometimes i cant get the mouse to function, the whole system freezes and after many attempts i can changes values again. Liked the old BIOS much more.

I have my 3570k and ud3h stock now. My board gets spikes up to 3.6 ghz every 3-5 seconds for a split second while idling in windows in balanced power mode.

When I switch to power saver in windows power settings, the spikes go away.

The system is idling and not doing anything. Anybody else get this? I'm measuring loads with hwinfo system summary.
