What are you using for cooling?
So I could get a better score for the LinX bench thread .BIOS for 24/7 settings and testing potential 24/7 settings... Program for SuperPi suicide runs
What do you use your computer for? The world isn't going to end just because you aren't LinX stable. For a 24/7 stable OC, I do not use a program like LinX or Prime, unless what my computer does 24/7 involves heavy CPU usage. I do not think "Stable" should be defined as passing LinX or Prime, rather being able to run your selected settings without crashing or locking up for what you use your computer for.
Just my opinion...
interesting read (for me at least)

Have you lapped it yet?
lol, i don't want to mess it up, so i don't think im going to. I'm not listening to people for ocing anymore lol, i do better on my own by far, i thought i needed help with all the new voltages for the i7's but i was wrong. I just got a stable 3.8ghz with no higher then 80c...i think i can get that temp lower too, still have not finished tweaking yet. IM going to find the bare minimum voltages and then up the speed in small increments until i cant boot anymore. I'm hoping for 4.0ghz with max load temps no higher then 82c.
