i7 860 overclocking, vcore greyed out!

Whats in the ClockGen tuner? (second pic)

Also in the second pic, it's not scrolled down all the way is VTT voltage down there?

here ya go:

And you say it's still undervolting/underclocking when the CPU is idling?

When your CPU is idling, if you open CPUz, whats it say for the CPU Vcore and frequency?

uh, It's completely stable right now at 3.6ghz, but if I go to 3.9 it gets bsod at
full load using prime95.
 
You didn't answer either question!

Open CPUz and what does it say....voltage wise and frequency. Let the CPU idle.

Ok, cpu-z says, at 0% load:

the red part i marked, varies from about 3650.5 - 3650.9, this must be
speedstep? Or it's just some random things cpu-z does when reading?
 
No, speedstep would take it down to about 1ghz with a multiplier of 8 or so.

Strange that your voltage is only 1.224, thats stock voltage. Whats the voltage set to in the bios right now? +.198?
 
ok, so I noticed there is an auto function for cpu voltage, witch takes vcore to about 1.28, it should be enough for 3.9ghz-40ghz? Right?
Also, I have the corsair 750w if it's to any help.
 
Auto may take your voltage even higher once you overclock higher.

Just curious what this will do, but set your voltage to +.3 once, don't change anything else and boot up. Open cpuz and whats the voltage say? You won't damage anything I promise ;)

hmm, when I set it to auto, I lost the control over voltage at all :)
it's greyed out at auto :O
 
Well yeah of course...thats why I said to set it to +.3

no,no. before i set the voltage at auto, I had control of the vcore, because
the vcore changed when I raised cpu voltage, but heh, when I tried auto on cpu volt, it's got stuck like that, it seems to be changing after the needs, but now I can't fix it ;)

When I go over 3.8ghz, I get a BSOD, will post all my specs when I get home, and if you see any problems I have done, it would be awesome.
