Nice score, for xmp;)

By interesting do you mean no fun?? 102.6BCLK max kinda makes me not want to bother with Skylake i3

I5 6400/6600/6700 and co are all the same... you tried on cold too Roman ?

I saw 3066 mem divider Sam

What memory multipliers are available with these i3 (and locked Skylake in general)?

Can't remember exactly but was quite high. 3600 even higher. 3200 MHz worked fine even on stock SA. So IMC doesn't look bad.

Great Score man! Despite the low BCLK capability, pushing DDR4 on this CPU Class will still be fun if they have an IMC close to the K-series Skylake then

those points lol

is BCLK not unlocked like everyone was talking about?

I'm surprised XMP is working on these chips! Can you dial in the memory timings manually too?

The Q0 engineering samples were unlocked; the R0 retail are not. In fact, due to the new implementation of BCLK (external PLL), the frequency range is even more limited than on previous platforms. So yeah, we won't be seeing much over 103 MHz on these chips.

 

Well ... maybe ... we'll see ...

Where did you find this? I've not been able to find anything about it anywhwere and I'm aure the early reports about Q0 said they were locked too

Yea memory and timings work without any problems

Little sad. Was hoping that I could up the BCLK on i3s and get an healthy overclock. Damn you Intel

Who finds the bios which firmware detects only Q0 cpus instead of R0? Bclk oc should be possible than. 103Mhz is a joke, external pll should actually give a lot more bclk than those internal ones we had with haswell but it seems like intel is doing anything to stop oc on budget pcs.
