X58 users unite! The X58 has been shadowed for some time now, but the platform is still viable. I thought I'd make this topic for X58 users who are running Xeons. That means ANY Xeon, not just Hexa-cores. With so many people upgrading to Xeons I felt that this would be a fine time to post this topic. Feel free to post pictures of your X58 builds, benchmarks and specs. This is your time to brag.

Only the first CPU-Z info will be posted. No Updates or Duplicates. If you are not on the list and have been approved please let me know.
Please post your CPU-Z validation link or banner that leads to the validation link. You should also include your OCN username during the validation process as well. If you are accepted into the club I will post to verify that I have viewed your CPU-Z link and that it is legit. If approved you will then add the code below to your signature. Please do not add the signature code unless I approve it.
Thank you, I just got a 4.8ghz stable but a stupid USB bug code BSOD made me miss the validation lol, I need to do more searching on cpu pll voltz and other stuff as well, I can't set my PLL voltz lower than 1.8v on my board so never was able to see if lowering it would help but I think I might need to raise it with 4.8~5.2 ghz? did you have to?

Nah I don't mess with PLL that much. It will cause some degrading for sure. High PLL voltage settings kills CPUs much quicker. 1.80v PLL is the default voltage. I left my settings on AUTO. 4.8Ghz is a nice speed. I understand it's not for 24/7. I actually hit 5.4Ghz and booted into Windows. I restarted my PC because I just didn't like the amount of voltages going through my CPU. You should be careful because I have been reading about CPUs losing their overclocks due to degradation. In other words your stable safe OC's become unstable and you have to run your PC with either more voltage or lower core speeds.
dude! 1.646v? wow! I do not care all that much if I fry my chip, but that is some high voltz for the hexa core! I seen one of your other pics showing 1.31v @ 4.4ghz from what I have been reading on the 980~990x and X56** chips the max safe core voltage for 24/7 is 1.45~1.5v depending of course on heat which I have to admit looks like you have noooo problem there! I am on a glorified air cooler the H100i so can't get maxing my chip out with out seeing temps climbing into the 88c range which is my un-confort zone lol, I know the max is 96c or 97c and not the 100c that most are at, so pushing past 80c my balls start to crawl up lol. But if I pushed to 1.646v I bet my CPU/Hexa Furnace would pop! lol
I'm actually running on "old tech" with my prolimatech megahalem. I actually just recently upgraded my fans on it to get better temps. Using two Noctua NF-P12 for push pull.
I have been posting good prices on another thread, you want me to PM you anytime I find one at a good price? Oh and can you use Ebay and Amazon?
