I would have purchased the 1100 for a little better OC maybe. But my 1090 is stable at 1.42 V and 3.7ghz. Any more, and I have to jack up the volts which is kinda silly for 24/7. I would gain 300mhz at 1.52 volts for 4ghz. No thanks.

Or is 4 the max?

I think in 12 months this chip will start to show its true potential ;)

NO............. but the 1090 is a sweet ass chip though brother ;)

Seriously, some of you guys need to get a life. :rolleyes: What did you think BD was going to 8ghz on air or something? Bulldozer is 32mm and 2500K is 32mm. Both the same "generation" chip. AMD operates on a fraction of Intel R&D. We buy AMD because they are not intel, they are the...

back off the acid for a few days, report back with any improvement next week ;)

was wondering which AMD utility allows control of fan speed? Like CPU, ect...

warning, Battlefield BC2 crashes all the time with my 6870

:rolleyes: You understand the only reason we have Sandy Bridge in 2011 is the competition AMD brings to the market? Seriously, the best today might be Core Duos priced $500 per chip without competition in the market. Supporting AMD brings better products, faster and cheaper to the market...

They are socket FM1 :eek:

No way, the AMD chip IMO would be an upgrade when overclocked properly.

that looks more like it froze than boiled. Boiling water takes 200 degrees.

1090t IS AWESOME; I'm at 3.8Ghz @ 1.425 volts and less than 41 C. why run faster? over 4ghz is OK with 1.5 volts and less than 45 C. See board below. Plus, Asus sends rebates FAST

I'm at 1.425 V; max 40 degrees C under 100% load 3.8 ghz What power saving features can I enable? Fans, CPU, HDs? What NOT to do? I have the MB below. Its an Asus AM3 790X

no prob with the fans, that chip should not run that hot. Re-install ;)
