Hi, I was reading up on some ways to quickly determine if you have a good or bad Haswell chip, and was wondering if you guys agree with it.
The rule an ASUS employee posted was that if the computer posts and/or gets into Windows at 46x and 1.2v you have a good CPU.
Going off this test, I think I have a good one; it gets into Windows 50% of the time at 46x 1.2v. Currently, I am running 44x at 1.25v, and Prime95 runs pretty stably and Core temps do not exceed 65c.
This chip a candidate for a bigger clock you guys think?
