Intel 875K + Asus Maximus III Formula Overclocking

OC Maximus · #1 09-26-2010

Just started working on this platform today. Todays goal is a 5GHz CPU-z Valid OC. Here are a few screen shots of my OC in progress.

I'm bencing on water and so far she is scaling fine. Not sure where to stop on vcore and cpu temp.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
OCM

thats a good chip....subzero it

on water( cold) 45nm can do 1.6v fine...

Thanks Honda. Not setup to go deep into the frost as of yet. Studying the setup at the moment. After that I'll take her down to -190 and see how she likes it.

the i7 45nm retail.......has a cb issue....i7-920 i7-875k....these chips don't go -190c... its not that bad since you don't have to waste alot of ln2...

I'm pretty surprised in my temps on water. Seems to stay cool, then again I do have 2 triple rads with (6) 1850 RPM GT's and a room temp of 18c trying to keep her cool. I wasn't aware of the cold bug issue, being an AMD guy, but I'm learning. I'll give her another run at 1.6v on the core as long as the temps are happy.

Had a pretty difficult time trying to CPU-z verify 5GHz so I decided to move on (for now). Been working on 2d benches most of the day. Here are my results.

Got me some boints
