EDIT/UPDATE: 5GHz @ 1.4 is NOT stable...got a BSOD
I'm now testing 4.9GHz @ 1.33v.
Will post results soon.
After 2 sleepness of trying different voltages and even random ones...I present 5.0GHz @ 1.4v in Bios. Fails IBT and Linx because too hot (obviously) but passed 4hrs Prime95 blend and 3 hours of Dirt 3 and BF3. Stable for real world use in my opinion...but you guys can go ahead bash me that it's "not stable". Will try for 12 hours of Prime95 later this week when I don't need to use the computer.
Temps are a bit warm...but I buy a new CPU and Motherboard every 2 years just because I can afford it and just for fun anyways...so I'm just going to run it 24/7 like this
Main Bios Settings:
CPU Voltage 1.4
DRAM Voltage 1.51
VCCSA 0.925
VCCIO 1.0625
CPU PLL 1.81875
PCH 1.0625
All others on AUTO
Under DIGI+VRM:
LLC - Extreme
Voltage Freq - Auto
VRM Spread - Enabled
CPU Power Phase - Auto
CPU Power Duty Cont - Extreme
Asus Maximus V Gene
Intel i7 3770K @ 5.0GHz (1.4v)
AMD HD7970 @ 1150MHz (1.3v)
(Temporary Ram) 8GB Corsair Vengeance @ 1600MHz (7-8-8-24)
Sony 55" LED EX620
Corsair Obsidian 650D
Corsair Gold AX750w
OCZ Vertex 3 (120GB) [Win 7 Pro SP1]
OCZ Vertex 3 (60GB) [OSX Lion 10.7.2]
Watercooling Loop:
XSPC RS240 -> EK XTC140 -> EK Supreme HT -> EK-FC7970 -> XSPC750 (7v mod)
