I'm not sure if I got a bad chip or something, but my e6750 just refuses to budge from 3.2ghz. No matter what voltage I pump in (and I've tried all the way up to 1.5v) it won't run stable on Orthos or Prime...in fact sometimes it crashes within a minute.
I have a zalman 9700 heatsink and my temps are always around 50C at max load during the stress tests so it can't be the heat can it?
Could it possibly be my ram that's the limiting factor? I'm using some OCZ gold rev.2 ram that's rated at 4-5-5-5-15 at 2.1v, but I can't even get the comp to run stable at that rating...I need to set timings to 5-5-5-15 to even have it run stable at its stock speeds.
Also even though I set my vdimm voltage to 2.1 in the bios, the ibit software monitor says it's running at 1.9v. And for some strange reason, I can get my comp to run stable at 3.2 ghz OC with 2 gigs of ram, but if I add 2 more (to a total of 4 gigs) it starts popping BSOD and becomes unstable. I know the ram is fine since I've run memtest86 on them and it's not showing errors.
Anyone have any idea what's going on? Or have a clue as to what might be the problem so I can see to replacing it or something? Thanks.
