    Intel i7/Gigabyte EX58 Extreme 4.0Ghz Temps.

    Core i7 Overclocking Guide For Beginners - Clunk's Forums. But after shutting down the test and rebooting everything seems to be slower as far as opening or closing application windows. Or just navigating my Windows 7. I dont think that I have my memory setup correctly. Any suggestions? Also,how do I get CPU-Z to show the actual 4.0Ghz I setup using the manual above and to also show that I have my CPU Core Voltage to show 1.25 as I have it set in the BIOS? Thanks

    Just one more thing, just even dragging a application window across my desktop stops and then starts again. Thought I would add that.

      A 191blck would give u the full 4ghz if you must. Voltages in Windows programs will appear lower than what you have in BIOS. It is completely normal. I have my vcore set to 1.4 in BIOS and CPU-z reads exactly 1.376 or 1.367 which is intels max spec.

      As far as laggy windows, you sure Prime isn't still running in the backround? lol i know its a funky question but i have done that before. Ran a test and thought i closed it. Opened TF2 and it was extremely choppy- minimized and close prime properly. But even while running prime and doing other tasks in windows it runs extremely smooth for me, dont have any other suggestions. Wish i could be of more help.

          Hey do me a favor, forward that template this way if ya dont mind. I would like to see what advanced voltages were tweaked which way. LSD has been missing for a couple weeks now, hope the guys ok. This place is falling apart without him!

          Thanks my good man.

              Having the Noctua setup this way really helped my temps. 2 fans in Push/Pull directed at the top to the huge top mounted fan. And my 4.0Ghz finally. I tried having the Noctua blowing out the rear but I felt that it was like having it blowing against a wall,the Noctua was to close to the rear fan and I dont feel the rear fan was keeping up with the 2 Noctua fans and not enough air was being moved out of the case.

                REAL sweet looking setup kenestra and thanks for the info. I got my Noctua mounted horizontal along with twin Scythe Slipstreams moving 110cfm a piece. They been anoying me lately so i hooked up a sunbeam fan controller to calm them down from time to time. I love it. been meaning to reseat it and mount vertical while im at it. I'm very curious to see the TIM pattern left behind, I have a good feeling i could knock off some some degree's with a reseat and or applying TIM using a different method.
