Hi everyone
I asked Tom too many questions regarding OC on YT channel
(Im sorry for that) and I bet he was saying: "omg, wtf another noobish OC "player" haha anyway Tom send me here to ask more quesions if I need more help
so here I am.
Test system:
i7 980
Asus P6T Deluxe V2
12gb ram corsair dominator 1600mhz C8
Corsair H70 push pull
Corsair AX1200
2 x 580 sli
BIOS settings so far, stable in prime95:
CPU ratio x 21
Intel SpeedStep Disabled
BCLK 200
PCIE 100
DRAM DDR3 1603Mhz
UCLK 3200Mhz
CPU voltage 1.24375 (CPUZ showing 1.248 at full load)
CPU PLL 1.88
QPI/DRAM 1.30
DRAM Bus voltage 1.66
FSB
RAM 2:8
Memory set to auto: 9,9,9,24,88,2T
I have few quesions guys if you dont mind
How I can improve this system?
If I choose in BIOS XMP-1600 profile with 8,8,8,24,41,2T settings I will see any difference?
XMP-1600 will setup QPI on 1.35 is it not to high?
What CPU speed I should have to do not bottleneck two 580 in sli? only for gaming.
What is max safe vcore for my CPU? I want to OC more but should I stick with 1.3 max?
Last question
I know I have crappy H70 cooler and before I will buy a decent kit from specialtech what are max safe temps on H70 I can live with?
Thanks
