Hey guys, can u post your bios settings to achive that high bclk? Im cracking my head to pass 238 without slowmode, with slowmode its the same. I got the same bclk on my Gigabyte UD5X58-Extreme. Think ive used every volt possible to adjust there... im pretty stuck..
I'd like to known, with a 920, memory to 2000 and uncore to 4000, I had with Everest (cache and memory benchmark)
Read: 21600
Write: 17416
Copy: 24473
Latency: 39.1
with a 970, memory to 2000 and 4000 to uncore
Read: 20400
Write: 17100
Copy: 19950
Latency: 40.5
the only thing to change (except the CPU) is that with the 920, it was 3GB (3x1) and with the 970 is 6GB (3x2)
I think in the bios should activate the C-STATE to the bench
is what can leave C-STATE always enabled? What influence on the h24?
it requires more tension?
thanks a lot ;)

cold air now right outside :D get this right for few min ago

i get almost 260 bclk to when i just save valid cpu-z file then all blue screen
I wanted to get some info on QPI voltages on this board. By default my QPI was set to 1.38v after I installed the board. Now that Im reading, it seems this is just above the max recommended voltage by Intel. Is the default QPI voltage 1.2v ? Why the hell was is set so high by default in the BIOS?
CPU will do 3.8 at all stock voltages (QPI 1.2v) and is stable on Prime @ 72C
CPU will do 4.0 at 1.25v Vcore and 1.25v QPI, Prime stable @ 80-82C
Hyperthread and Turbo functions are on and cores are at 40-45c at idle running at 4.0GHz Im not sure why the board was setup with QPI voltages 1.38v from the factory. Im happy with these settings/temps for 24/7 use.
What voltages do you guys get on the IOH and ICH on air?
I'm getting
Idle:
40c ICH
47c IOH
Load:
46c ICH
55c IOH
All this after I replaced TIM and thermal pads. Does it look good on air?
you using the beefier heatsink on the board?
Mine are quite a bit lower with the big sink.
What are you using to read the ICH/IOH temperatures? According to Everest it doesn't look like temps dropped all that much from adding the block. Although I never see the IOH get that high. Max it hits is around 55C and the ICH about 50C.Quote:

This is what happens:
1. I press start on my motherboard.
2. PSU starts beeping.
3. I switch the PSU off, and wait until all power is gone.
4. Switch the PSU on again, and press start.
5. Computer boots up normally.
Inside a case the little fan does wonders, on a benchtable there's loads of flow due to ram fans and co... Too bad it makes removing the GPU a bit harder...Quote:

I don't have that with the 1Kw DXX version, I had this kind of fail safe thingy when my rear PSU fan was blocked by the cables inside... could you check if it spins freely ?Quote:

Ordered waterblock on it but yea ive not seen this bad heatsink on a high end motherboard EVER, even the Classified one is better. The Gigabyte Extreme could hold the temps near 50c idle and full to 60c. Same setup. But yea, the board shut down when reached 100c lol, never happened before... idiotic cooling.

yeah it was weird on the SB it was the yellow crap on my NB looked like the yellow crap and AS5 mixed in it. new from newegg btw
Wow, I wonder if they are putting a blob of AS5 on top of the yellow crap cuz it sux so bad?Quote:

Yep.. here is a link that explains whats going on here.. i did it to my board and now back down to 55 @ load and 50 @ idle :)

guys, just noticed that my CPU vcore is drooping. It hovers 1.250 and then 1.244v. I'd expect it to be rock solid 1.250. Can someone post the main BIOS settings to turn off all the power saving features?
Thats a smaaaalll drop, could be that u just have a poor quality PSU.
In my configuration using the RIIIE I'm not using the EZ Plugs. Frankly I'm sort of scared to, I've had to RMA 6 RIIIE,s and I have a pet theory that part of the problems that I've had with this motherboard have something to do with the EZ Plugs. I do not know exactly what it is but I've chosen not to use them this time and the board that I have now seems to be functioning correctly. My question is, Do I have to use these power connection for a HD Radeon Crossfire setup with 2 HD 5870,s or not. I do not see why the video cards need any additional power besides the power that they get directly from the PSU and the manual doesn't explain anything in detail what these plugs do . What exactly does the EZ Plugs do anyway and how would I benefit from using them?. Your prompt replies will be appreciated
Thanks
The EZ Plugs are there for high end overclocking of tri/quad sli/xfire.Quote:

Same multiplier? If so, were you using the same timings on your memory?Quote:

From what I understand, the EZ Plugs help in providing additional power when using multiple GPUs. I believe this is only necessary for extreme GPU overclocking or when using multiple high power video cards e.g. GTX 480s.Quote:

And in your case I think everything in your system is fine and you are better off just not using the EZ plugs. Since it is a new feature it may just be a flawed design and nothing more. Just avoid it unless you have problems like artifacting (which is why you'd use EZ Plugs due to insufficient power, but you should not have this problem).
Because you didn't click the right spot.Quote:

None of the "Download" buttons are real, wow that is so annoying.
Thanks Soylinda for Bios 1102! :D
PS PytonOrm No offense to you personally, but I absolutely hate and despise your avatar..seriously what is up with that? I wanna clock that chick in the face for some reason..
