i7 3930 overclock and voltages

[Sakura]

Hi guys,

Did a search on the o/c portion of the foums and found very little.

For those of you with i7 3930ks what kind of voltages are you getting for your overclocks?

I've only had my processor for 1.5 days, and only just this morning finished the watercooling + software setup.



So far running at 4.7ghz, with CPUZ reporting a vcore of 1.464.



This is just a qick o/c, all of 15 minutes of effort. So yet to really see how low the vcore can go.

Temps appear to be well within acceptable limits, no core going beyond 80c based on CoreTemp's reporting while running small blend in place prime95 across all twelve threads for 2 hours.

Now i'm yet to do a lot of reading up on these CPUs or the Sandy Bridge E boards and chips, but how's that vcore look for 24/7?

I've read some people claim anything over 1.35 for 24/7 is bad.
Others have claimed 1.4v is fine as per Intel's max specs
And them some more claim 1.45v-1.50 is fine provided you can keep it cool
