Put together my new build. Gigabyte DS3R. 2GB Crucial Ballistix 6400 (4-4-4-12 although I don't think that's what BIOS did).
Was doing 29C at stock frequency of 2.4 ghz. Using thermalright ultra 120 Extreme.
Up to 38C at 3.4 ghz (425x8).
No temp changes under load!!! Was playing Company of Heroes and nothing.
CPU-Z is being funky. Reports 1.328 Vcore. BIOS and Coretemp read 1.275. cpuz also reports a 6 multiplier instead of 8?! And the RAM is all funked up.
But pretty good start overall, looks like these babies really can push 3.6 on air (I need to figure out what to do with RAM, maybe I can get higher).
