20x Core i7 3770K IMC overclocking test on air
Hey all,
After the SF3D OC Gathering Vol.X binning event, I quickly tested the 20 Core i 7 3770K chips I brought over for IMC overclocking capability on air cooling. Test system: - Core i7 3770K (obviously) - Simple air cooler with 1 fan - GIGABYTE Z77X-UP5 TH - GSKILL TridentX DDR3-2666C11 There are four states: - "ok" means the CPU can boot up with that memory frequency - "66" means the CPU cannot boot up with that memory frequency - "51" means the memory was not capable of that frequency (like "55" on M5G) - "/" means untested setting Of the 20 tested CPUs ... ... 20 passed DDR3-2400 test ... 19 passed DDR3-2600 test ... 18 passed DDR3-2666 test ... 13 passed DDR3-2800 test ... 2 passed DDR3-2933 test ... 0 passed DDR3-3000 test I've verified the testing on the M5G, the results were of course the same. I also tested the 2933 CPUs with memory under cold and then passing DDR3-2933 was no problem anymore, which indicates that "51" was related to the memory rather than the CPU capability. The chart:

I used the new UP5 TH board, not the UD5H
 .What BIOS setting are you looking for specifically? Already flashed the BIOS of the board, so the profile I used has been overwritten.
