I recently got an i7 875k. Using Real Temp 3.60, I can adjust the Turbo Boost limits so that under load all four cores go to 30x. That means with a bclk of 134MHz the cpu ranges from 1206MHz on idle to 4020MHz on load.
But Intel advertised an adjustable memory multiplier. My memory is rated at DDR3-2000, and it ran for a long time at 1820MHz on my i7 860 build, but with a max memory multiplier of 12x it only goes to 1608MHz with the 134MHz bclk.
So, is it possible to push the memory multiplier beyond 12x? Does the 875k have that in it?
I have checked a number of reviews and found nothing other than a repetition of Intel's statements that the memory multiplier is unlocked. Has anybody actually managed to go beyond 14x?
