Post your i7 920 (and stepping) OC

I figured since we have some of these threads all over the places that we have one where people can say what OC they have, how they got it, and the temps they are getting.

This is what I managed to tweak it to before sending my UD5 back for rma. Waiting on some cash for a new board now. It'll be an EVGA for sure.

I was able to get it stable at 4Ghz with a D0 stepping. Temps are ok under normal condition but approach around 88-90 after 8 hour Prime95 blend test. Not too bad considering I never overclocked CPUs before due to my motherboard limitations (OEM boards).

Mother Board: Asus P6T Deluxe V2
Bios: Current Asus revision (Don't Remember Version)
CPU: i7 920 D0
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-U12P SE 1366 Push/Pull config
Memory:Corsair Dominator 6 GB 1600 Mhz 8-8-8-24 1T
PSU: Corsair HX750
GPU: GTX 260 overclocked
Operating System: Windows 7 64-bit
Idle Temp: Aprox 45 Degrees Celsius
Load Temp: Aprox 75-80 Degrees Celsius for normal loads such as games/VMs. Approximately 85-90 Degrees Celsius after 8 hours Prime 95 blend test

AI Overclock Tuner Profile: X.M.P
CPU Ratio Settings: Auto
Intel SpeedStep Tech: Enabled
Intel Turbo Mode: Enabled
BCLK Frequency: 190
PCIE Frequency: 100
DRAM Frequency: DDR3-1523MHz (Using Corsair Dominator rated at 1600)
UCLK Frequency: Auto
QPI Link Data Rate: Auto
CPU Voltage: 1.275
CPU PLL Voltage: 1.88
QPI/DRAM Core Voltage: 1.3
IOH Voltage: Auto
IOH PCIE Voltage: Auto
ICH Voltage: Auto
ICH PCIE Voltage: Auto
DRAM Bus Voltage: 1.64

All other settings are left on auto.

Show your bios settings not what cpuz says as it doesn't allow others to try your settings

I wanted to just leave it generic since the settings vary greatly board to board and terms are renamed often. I have revise my original post to now include Bios specific settings.

^^^^ Did you get manage to get that stable running your RAM at spec?...you'll be in the market now for some 1600 / 1866 or 2000 ;)

Yeah RAM is at spec... I'd like better RAM
I'm working on a build for my gf right now.
Also waiting to see how the new Gigabyte x58 boards turn out.

Excellent...good to hear!!
