hehe, this is not stable, but I love the RAM running at this speed:

[msgclb]

I started with the BIOS settings found at this link:

http://i4memory.com/f80/dfi-lp-ut-x5...emplate-12919/

The following are some changes and my voltage setting.

------------------
Genie BIOS Setting

CPU VID Control: 1.375v
Vcore Droop Control: Enabled
DRAM Bus Voltage: 1.695v
CPU VTT Voltage: 1.39v
CPU PLL Voltage: 1.80v
IOH/ICH 1.1V Voltage: 1.11v
IOH Analog Voltage: 1.10v
ICH 1.5 Voltage: 1.5v
ICH 1.05V Voltage: 1.05v

Turbo Mode Function: Disabled
CPU Non-Turbo Clock Ratio: 20x

* BCLK/UCLK/QPI Controller Settings *
QPI Frequency: 4.8GT/s
CPU Base Clock (BCLK): 172 Mhz
DRAM Frequency: 1376Mhz = 8x DRAM multiplier
UnCore Frequency: 2752 = 2x DRAM Frequency

These setting work up to a BCLK of 172 but using 173 causes the system to shutdown and then will not boot until I do a Reset/Power Off to reset the CMOS.

A BCLK of 172 will work with a lower vcore setting but I've gone up to 1.45v with 173. I was using a lower DRAM and VTT voltage for 172 and raised it to the above values for 173 but that didn't help. I'm just about ready to give up on this i7 920 and try something else. Any suggestions before I throw in the towel?

[eva2000]

With a very bad batch (3838A), i prefer to use low voltage and resigned to 3.8Ghz. My RAM is 7-7-7-24 1.65v stock, but i need to climb to 1.71v in Bios, i suppose that because of the needs of the Uncore.

not bad 3.8ghz 1.232-1.264v is also my 24/7 comfy clocks

As to my mismatched testing some CAS7

6x1GB 7-7-7-18 1T
Seems this mismatched combo does pretty well tightening both main and subtimings managing up to DDR3-1718Mhz 7-7-7-18 1T at 1.875v bios. Needed a notch or two higher vdimm when subtimings were tightened otherwise I could of lowered vdimm by ~0.25-0.30v.

I didn't take them as recommended. I just failed to use my full bios settings.

The following BIOS settings are stable but when I increase BCLK to 173 the system will not boot. I've tried a vcore up to 1.45v.

When I had this 920 in my P6T I got up to 4074 MHz with Turbo on (21x194) although not stable. I also had Prime95 stable for 30 min @ 20x195 (3900 MHz) but I stopped it because it was hot.

When it doesn't boot what postled code ?


play with PWM switch frequencies as well some memory like reduce 15% over nominal

and play with modules in different order for same dimm slots

also play with subtimings too

DRAM memory tips #1, #2 and #3 http://i4memory.com/102537-post3.html

Also have you tried bclk values other than 173 ? i.e. 174 or higher ?

I'm using 1/23 pre-beta bios and first time i came across this little bug i was testing 6x1GB mixed tri channel and 7-7-7-18 1t and slowly bumping bclk on 8x mem multi. Was fine from starting bclk of 150 up to 166. Then set 167 got postled 75 on bios exit/boot up and blank screen. Then tried bclk from 168 to 216 and had no probs with 6x1GB @859mhz 7-7-7-18 1T http://i4memory.com/f83/6x1gb-corsai...rclocks-14112/ heh

Hi Eva can you help me with oc my cpu please? I can't pass 3.4ghz even if I try to raise the vcore. I know I miss something here.

[eva2000]

Hi Eva can you help me with oc my cpu please? I can't pass 3.4ghz even if I try to raise the vcore. I know I miss something here.

bit general there... elaborate as to what happens past 3.4ghz, huge diff between can't boot at >3.4ghz vs fail prime95 immediately vs getting bsods/reboots vs failing prime95 after 7 day straight run heh

you need to give us something to work with - aims/oc'ing objectives, system specs, cooling and ram used as what settings you've tried as per template here http://i4memory.com/f80/dfi-lp-ut-x5...emplate-12919/

Show us what you have tried and what did and didn't work for you. I still follow the same process i outlined at http://i4memory.com/f55/announcement...y-eva2000.html with every new system including i7/x58. Isolate and test each part of the system i.e. start with memory then cpu then the rest.

So in your case (and anyone else reading):

1. Find the limits of your memory before you find limits of your cpu/bclk.
2. Find out what your memory can do on each mem multiplier/cpu multi combination.
3. Find out what voltages your memory likes and what's the optimal voltage difference between vdimm and uncore (cpu vtt) for your particular ram/setup
4. Find out whether the ram likes pwm switch frequencies of reduce 15% or nominal.
5. Find out which of your modules likes which dimm slot 2 or 4 or 6.
6. Found out what auto subtimings translate to in cpu tweaker or memset at each mem frequency/timing combination.

stuff in bold could be more relevant for your situation

Basically get to know how your ram behaves on the motherboard with your particular i7 cpu before looking into the cpu side. Sure, there's a wide variance between i7 cpu memory controllers but I'm wondering how much of this variance is due to differences in how particular cpu memory controller interacts with different types of memory modules - down to their PCB/trace design ? Or just bios updates i.e. my Samsung HCF0 based G.Skill PC3-12800HZ didn't do too well with 12/18 and 12/31 bios and that effected cpu stability and what voltages I needed to use. Come 1/06 beta and 1/23 pre beta, HCF0 modules now shine and keep up with Corsair DDR3-2133 Dominator HCF0 and cpu clocking much easier.

Trust me when I say figuring out ram side will make overclocking the cpu much easier

[rusty]

thanks a lot Eva. by the way how do you get 1:1 ratio ? my goal is 3.8ghz if lucky 4.0ghz more than enough.
P.S. can somebody tell what are these switches for (circled in red)

[eva2000]

so such thing as 1:1 lowest mem multi is 6x so 133bclk 6x mem = DDR3-800Mhz speeds

[rusty]

so such thing as 1:1 lowest mem multi is 6x so 133bclk 6x mem = DDR3-800Mhz speeds

I see. Do you know what are these switches for in "red cirlce"

[eva2000]

beats me LOL

[rusty]

beats me LOL

o

[eva2000]

= no idea

[rusty]

= no idea

I wonder if this could be similar to p5q deluxe options.

[eva2000]

doubt DFI needs a voltage override jumper seeing as VCORE available in bios is 1.6 + 14.8% = >1.83v

[rusty]

one more question :> when I set cpu vtt voltage to 1.26v I get 1.21v in Everest & Smart Guardian. Vdroop is enabled. Eva I've read your tips but it seems to be a big gap in volts.

[eva2000]

use multimeter to measure real voltage values so you can adjust accordingly

[jcool]

doubt DFI needs a voltage override jumper seeing as VCORE available in bios is 1.6 + 14.8% = >1.83v

Actually it's 1,6 * 1,3... disable special add limit

[msgclb]

When it doesn't boot what postled code ?

I usually get one of two codes: 75 or 88. When it's 88 I can't use the reset/power buttons to reset the CMOS. I have to turn power off at the PSU. Sometimes this takes a couple of times before it boots again. If it is 75 then I can reboot using the reset/power switches.

play with PWM switch frequencies as well some memory like reduce 15% over nominal

This didn't make any difference as far as I can tell.

and play with modules in different order for same dimm slots

Didn't help.

also play with subtimings too

See below.

DRAM memory tips #1, #2 and #3 http://i4memory.com/102537-post3.html

Thanks.

Also have you tried bclk values other than 173 ? i.e. 174 or higher ?

Yes. 174, 175, 180, 190 and others that I've forgotten.

I'm using 1/23 pre-beta bios and first time i came across this little bug i was testing 6x1GB mixed tri channel and 7-7-7-18 1t and slowly bumping bclk on 8x mem multi.

I flashed to the 1/23 pre-beta bios. I then kinda through in the towel. I've swapped memory. I'm now using my dual channel Corsair DDR3-2133 so I'm going to start over with this memory.

So in your case (and anyone else reading):

1. Find the limits of your memory before you find limits of your cpu/bclk.
2. Find out what your memory can do on each mem multiplier/cpu multi combination.
3. Find out what voltages your memory likes and what's the optimal voltage difference between vdimm and uncore (cpu vtt) for your particular ram/setup

75 i get when vdimm and cpu vtt ain't enough for clocks set, 88 yeah means switch of psu and then hold home key while hitting power to revert to default bclk

loosen everything up and work back to tighter timings as you test

so

REF to ACT Delay (tRFC): 88 and higher

Write to PRE Delay (tWR): AUTO | Yes
Rank Write to Read (tWTR): try values between 20 to 28
ACT to ACT Delay (tRRD): 6 or higher
Row Cycle Time (tRC): AUTO | 31
Read CAS# Precharge (tRTP): 6 or higher
Four ACT WIN Time (tFAW): 31

Max 6x1GB 8-8-8-24 1T Clocks
Changing to 10x memory multiplier, tried to find max 6x1GB 8-8-8-24 1T clocks and ended up with DDR3-2000Mhz 8-8-8-24 1T at 2.04v bios (2.045v real) only for tried 1M Super Pi as 32M Pi test failed. I dropped bclk and mem clocks to DDR3-1960Mhz 8-8-8-24 1T at same vdimm but Super Pi 32M failed at 22nd iteration. Similar trend occured at DDR3-1940mhz as well.

I recall it's probably the Cellshock PC3-14400 Micron D9GTR holding the 6x1GB modules back as it needed more vdimm for do such clocks even on P35/X48 DDR3 boards closer to 2.1+ volts for around DDR3-1920 8-8-8-x. Decided to stop there as unnecessary stress to i7 IMC ain't needed when I shall have some nice DDR3-2000 CAS7 rated triple channel memory due my way this coming week

for me max uncore is around 4000-4400mhz frequency. Uncore all depends on memory and memory volts
