1.5V on a X4 955?
Daayyuuummmnnn LOL.
Think i want to be in the 4.0ghz club...but not 1.5v bad enough to be in the 4.0ghz club.
time will tell though cause i've already creeped it up to 3.771 @ 1.409v
Count me in!
The reason it is saying 3.9 GHz is the info center is assuming default FSB. It's set at 210, and the default is 200.
19.5*210=4095.
19.5*200=3900.
It's a stable OC for sure; I tried upping both the FSB and multiplier past this; it crashed on boot-up.
I'm using Minecraft to show how stable it is.
Stock voltages. Not sure what defaults are. Do NOT want to fry brand spankin' new stuff.
Chugging along at 35C, stock HS.
Oh, I had to use my current 300W, without my 6850, to get this.
