Need Help Going Past 4.67 GHz

Hi , I seem to hit a wall at 4.67 (133 x 35). If i use a slower multiplyer, say 24 and crank up the blck. I still cant go past 4.7GHz. Im running BIOS Ver 1401. I can get into windows 7 with a higher multiplyer but when i push my system with prime95 - it crashes. My temps are in the 50's when pushed at 4.6GHz. I'm using the followning settings.....

CPU Core , QPI/Dram and CPU PLL are set to 1.55
Ram is 1600 @ 1.65 Volts with 9/9/9/24 - 2T
Load Line set to full
Disabled both Spread Spectrum
Disabled C1E, Virtual Tech, CPU TM, A20m, C-State and Speedstep

Everything else is default and/or Auto

I would like to keep all cores on.

Are there any other settings i need to set for stability?
Do I just need to run more voltage?

For the people that use LN2 🙂 Do you do anyting in the BIOS other then just raw voltage?

Thanks

It will help if you tell us what kind of CPU you have, I notice a xeon in your sig, anyway 4,67 is a good OC especially on a 1366 CPU , not all the CPU are born the same some oc better than other.

What is the QPi? 1.55v?? If so I had 5.6ghz on ln2 QPi @1.37v

CPU-id is telling me it's a Xeon X5667 but it has 6/12 cores instead or 4/8.

The QPI is 1.55 volts. I will try turning it down.

Do I need to adjust any of the PWM settings or the extreme OC (auto/mode 1 / mode 2)?

Thanks
