Just another tip that I found while benching those chips.

As you can see they came from Wired Stuff, or most did anyway. I have no idea where they came from, or how long they sat idle. That place is a recycling place to they came from just about anywhere.

When I would start to bench a new chip jammimg the OC and vcore up right off the bat was not a good idea. What I did was start them out at stock at run Prime for a few hours, then slowly start upping the OC. I would get the best results doing it that way.

On my Chilly1 Phase they hardly touched the temps on it as they have little heat output. I do not know what the cold bug on those chips is.
