Re: Can't reach 4GHz on EX58 Extreme & i7 920
Here ya go Kiteman, for future issues
BSOD Error codes and what they mean:
0X00000050 << Incorrect Memory Timing/Freq or Uncore Multi
0X00000124 << Incorrect QPI/Vtt Voltage (To Much/Not Enough)
0X00000101 << Not enough Vcore Voltage
Try these settings for the ones you posted above, if you BSOD see code then see above notes.
