You missed screen shot of advanced voltage page. You have the dram section.

And is that 4c/4t or 4c/8t?

[wazza300]

which page am i missing? though i caught them all? and yeah 4 cores 8 threads

M.I.T > Advanced Voltages. Where is shows vcore vtt and imc voltages.

Now its there. I did not see it before.

Looks like a pretty good cpu you have there. Whats core temps look like under load? Whats max it can do with HT disabled?

i havnt tried with multithreading disabled,max temp 5runs on maximum was 72c but it is winter here,right now its on a par with my 2600k temp wise,but that needed 1.36v for the same clocks,this needs 1.188v,actually the 2600k hovered around 75c

My main rig 3770K I use +.015 DVID and High LLC. My other rig 3770K I think +.005 DVID and Medium LLC. Otherwise everything else is Auto except RAM & Vtt settings.

If you want to see how stable it is you probably want to run P95 with the AVX instruction set and >90% memory used. Then if you can pass with no WHEA errors in Event Viewer you're probably OK. I ran mine >12 hours but in reality it takes around 15-18 hours to run all the fft's IIRC.
Of course some could care less.
For quick runs sometimes I just run the first two fft's, which defaults to 448K & 8K I think. The 8K will bring the heat on and either or both will pull WHEA errors if Vcore not high enough.

those are my temps with above settings,i know its not a full on stress test but its a good indicator

[boondocks]

wazza what was your ambient when you ran that test above? max Vcore?
Looks like you got a pretty good cpu.
