Yep, Snowbeast, that's pretty much what I think I was about to settle on. . . before I decided to make a run at 4.7GHz.
vcore set to 1.35v manual, LLC 6, cache at 43x.
Ambient temperature is 80f.
HWMonitor reports vcore max of 1.376v and a VID of 1.377v while running P95 small for three minutes just to make sure vcore won't surge too high inexplicably. Temperatures were unacceptable in P95 (85-87c on a couple cores) but temps aren't the point for this part.
HWMonitor reports vcore max of 1.376 and a VID of 1.381v while in RealBench. Currently 20 minutes in and temps are 76/80/68/77. A tad high for my (newly cautious) taste. Though this would likely be 10c lower if I turn off Hyper-threading.
Speaking of which, I wonder if turning off Hyper-Threading last time might have contributed to the bizarre behavior and eventual demise of the chip. Doing so usually decreases temps by ~10c. But I wonder if that and/or other microcode changes altered voltage calculations in an unforeseen way.
