I believe the only difference is the E761 comes bundled with the EVGA Control panel, which is a little PCB that has switches for turning the board on/off, jumpers for disabling PCIe slots, and buttons for tweaking the voltages. among other things (it's basically like a little OC station). If you really wanted to, you could always buy one for a E760.

Ok guys, I just ordered this board and I expect this board to arrive in 2 weeks (Wish it would have arrived sooner) and I heard the Northbridge runs quite hot on this board, is this true? How hot does it run anyway?

Here's an updated version of the BIOS for the E759 Classified for those that want to try it...AFAIK these are the changes (cumulative with changes in S22A)...
***Please note that this BIOS is strictly and only for the E759 Classified board***
1. Adds support for 2TB partitions.
2. Adds new S3 states to allow S3 at high BCLK values. The newly added ranges are (set clock to down-clock needed for S3) 150 to 133, 170 to 150, 190 to 170, 210 to 190, 210+ to 210.
3. Adds ability to Enable/Disable HPET and run it in 32-bit and 64-bit modes.
4. Changes boot sequence, from poll clockgen > poll qpi ratio to poll qpi ratio > poll clockgen (should allow for higher BCLK boot).

Hi all. I've been reading the thread for a while, really intresting. Got my E760 some days ago, and been testing after burn in. Is it good a 191*21 on 1.223v? and 201*21 on 1.282v on a i7 920 batch 391X?
Can anyone tell me if is there any fix for the .5 blck read (cpu-z, eleet, etc)?
I'll post some screens later with dram at 2005 8-9-8-24-88 1.6 bios voltage set (gskill trident 2000 9-9-9) blck 201*21 (4210 read). Any advices to improve memory results are welcome, and so are the RTL possible settings.
By the way I have to use +150Vtt for memory at 1900, and +200Vtt for memory at 2000.
Regards. sorry my english.
Hi! guys i need some tips, trying to find my max benchable speed on air, 920 D0 on Megahalems and E760 (bios S61B).
Bclk seems to be my biggest problem as it can't go higher than 219 without pushing 1.5v vtt... so far with 1.55v i can do Spi 2M @ 223*21, but afraid to push above 1.55... also room temp is very high..
Is it normal to need a lot of vtt volts for higher bclk? :shakes:

Only one way to find out. Drop your vtt to +50 at 200bclk or so and if you loose stability then probably... but I've read that high vtt can cause instability if I'm not mistaken but what do I know I'm a newbie overclocker...Quote:

I've bumped most of the ioh/ich voltages quite a bit and managed to bench 224*21... raising vtt to 1.57 helps stability there but not enough to do even 1M at 225... and vcore beyond 1.51v doesnt seem to help... idle temps around 66° :( maybe it's my limit for air
I wonder how does vdimm voltage affect bclk... gotta play with that and pcie too...
I thought that the limit according to intel was 1.35v (maybe slightly higher under water) for vtt . I would seriously back down your overclock. Have you factored in ambient temps? Also did you say it idles at around 66? OMG whats your load temps at? 95? And your air cooling?!Quote:

Good luck!
Did you try to raise the QPI PLL Voltage? VTT is too high, I think!Quote:

davidm71 i'm trying for max benchable on air so temps are gonna be high of course.. and whats the point to this board if you dont push things to the limit, at least once in a while ;)
Did some further testing today and noticed IOH vcore raises NB temps like crazy, 67° in bios idle, even with 2 ultra-kaze fans blowing directly at it... but what really impressed was the effect of room temp in stability, in the cool early morning i could lower vtt a bit and still bench some pi, but when the day got hotter it was impossible at the same settings...
(Sorry if all this is well known, i'm new to this board :p:)
@TinTin my qpi pll is already at 1.45v, not sure if any more is good... disabling cores doesnt seem to help in my case btw
Hey guys, im rock stable at 4.2ghz, can someone help me get 4.4ghz stable, thanks.

Hi, Guys I think my E760 just died yesterday :(.
From the moment I start it to the end when I shut it down its only showing post code FF. I tried reseting the CMOS with jumpers and battery, it was about 2-3 hours with no battery and its not working again FF and thats it. The speaker on the board is not working too so I cant hear any sounds. I`m trying without CPU, memory and card, only the 24 pin and 8pin for the CPU, I guess its not a problem, cause if everything is ok it has to show a diffrent code for missing CPU, memory or I dont know. This happened when i changed the memory it doesnt want to start so I powered off and removed 2 of the sticks leaving only 1 which usually helps but it doesnt want to start again then I removed one of the cards, then tried without video card, without memory nothing..
I think i`ve tried everything any ideas or shoud I RMA it? The RMA is not recommended because i already RMA 2 DFI boards half year ago in the firm where i bought it and a 3rd one wont be welcome.
So I`ll appreciate any ideas thx.
Hello. Im new here, but i have read that pushing that bios "chip" hardly while u are starting ur pc, would maybe help with that FF code. Worth of try, atleast ;)Quote:

What voltages is needed to achieves high BCLK besides playing with cpu vcore and VTT.
thx
IOH, QPI PLL, IOH PLL and CPU PLL (recommended undervolting both to 1.5V), sometimes ICH a notch or two.
is 200bclk @ 1.28v good for 24-7 me board is evga sli le anyone had any exsperience with this mobo ? cheers
Clock seems decent, so do voltages.Quote:

760 owner here. Can someone confirm that PCIE slots 2 and 5 (according to the manual) must be used in SLI to get full x16 ?
I am searching for an Classified, if you have one, plz write me an pm.
What is a good setting for MCH strap? I have left it on Dram Ratio for now, Unsure if it is helping or hurting my OC, when I try and run 4.4ghz+ when Benchmarking.
You can go and try to decrease strap. @cloxx less than 1000MHz (2000DDR) 1333MHz was the fastest one booting up. Above 1600MHz is minimum. STRAP setting only influences subtiming formulas iirc - nothing spectacular.
I think this's been asked, but I'll ask again.
What's up with NB temp report on this board?
Mine goes 22C > 64C > 65C...
Is it broken? And which number should I trust?
where do you look for nb temp report, everest?.Quote:

Hello all, im new with the classified. I have this problem. Yesterday i installed win7 x64 with drivers and all, played a little with the pc and went to sleep. Today i managed to boot and all i got was Disk boot failure, insert system disk and press enter. I checked into bios and my intel ssd (achi mode) is detectable and in boot priority. I also changed sata cable just in case but no help at all. Any ideas?
Have you changed from 'normal' SATA to ACHI after the installation?
Instalation and normal operation were with the ssd in achi mode. Didnt changed anything.
Are you sure you have booting up from all removable drives and network stuff disabled?
Or maybe you accidentally disabled the boot ROM from some SATA controller your disk is connected to.
No removable drives on and network boot disabled. i dont understand how would i disable the boot rom from the sata controller, plz explain.
Actuall,y my bad, no such option on this board, just rebooted to check.Quote:

Also:
Try a different SATA cable, a different SATA port, and a different HDD power plug.
Can't think of anything else...
If i had a sata port, a sata cable or a power plug problem would i be able to see the hdd in bios? I guess not.
Anyway i tried everything, dont seem there is a solution. I ll reistall win7, damn :(
I have a EVGA 760 Classified and 5870CF, but I wonder if that is what the essential differences between 2x16X pci-e and such that I and 5870 pci-e 16X slot and one in the 8X PCI-e slot and if you know the difference and 3DMark and games and how much?
Is it still 5870 where you both such Because I saw that if I have 2x sli then work with 16x/16x PCIe if 3xsli then 8x/8x/8x PCIe
You have the board and the cards, just test it :up:
Is there a difference if one 16x pci in 5870, 5870, in the second PCIe 8x or both in 5870 PCIe 16x slot
For 2x 16 use slot 1 and 3 on E760
Problem is that I can not get more CrossFire bridge extending from 1 to 3 slot
You have to order the 100mm one. I got mine off of EBayQuote:

On E760 the first pci slot is 16x the 2nd is 8x the 3rd is 16x and the 4th is 8x :)
I have the following set up
Classified 760 with EK full water block
BIOS 61J
CPU cooled by TEC chilled water
ATI 5870
3 x 2 GB Perfect Storm CAS 8 2000 MHz
I can get to 21x 218 without too much trouble, see link below for voltages etc:
[IMG]http://img22.imageshack.us/img22/8414/4566hz20xlinx.jpg http://img22.imageshack.us/img22/456...jpg/1/w973.png[/IMG]
However, I cannot get BCLK 219 to work - Eleet will just freeze if I set that value using the above voltages, or the board will not post if I set 219 in the BIOS. Upping IOH to 1.35 volts will allow 219, but 220 is no-no even at IOH 1.500 (!!). Upping QPI PLL makes no difference. PCIe frequency doesn't seem to make any difference either.
The very same CPU easily got to BCLK 224 with minimal voltage changes and PCIe 101 on the vanilla EVGA X58 board (a 758, which sadly died after a few days although I did get a full refund). So its not the CPU.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks :)
CPU impedance = less, IOH and QPI PLL to keep synchronously, decrease cpu and ioh pll to 1.5V, increase vtt...
/edit.
QPI Signal Compensation = less
OK thanks- I'll give that a shot:)Quote:

what is the best bios for E760 and the W3565?
I'd guess the latest one. ;)
I see many of you are running the classified with the intel G2 ssd. Anyone of you have/had any issues running the ssd in AHCI mode? I tried installing win 7 x64 a couple of times, all of them whenever i turned off the pc next reboot i had disk boot failure. I could see the drive in bios but i couldnt boot OS. I tried IDE and it works perfect, but since i saw some performance decrease i would like to know if there is a solution to this.
I'm about to run my 760 with an intel G2 SSD and win7 x64, i'll keep you posted on how it goes. Still waiting for a few parts though so it may be not before next week.Quote:

This started to happen today when I accidentally decreased the cpu vtt voltage to sth like 1.14 or 1.08 in e-leet, giving me a bsod and a quick reset. Since that, the motherboard won't post more..
What can I do? I've already tried to boot with single channel memory changing slots and without any kind of drives or peripherials. I'm a bit disappointed because this mobo cost me like 600 bucks here in uruguay..
Any kind of help is welcome :) Thanks, Rodrigo.

I would try swapping your psu. This may be a psu compatibility problem. Could be just coincidence to the setting change which shouldn't have done any harm. Are you sure your psu is on the Classified compatibility list?Quote:

Also I am very familiar with the psu problem these boards have and to me it reminds me of what I went through.

Haven't had a chance to shoot for any higher yet, but my temps never get above 61*C on OCCT for an hour and prime95 for 6hrs, so I think i still have some head room.
Hi guys, I need some help.
Got my EVGA Classified E760 yesterday and started to bench straight away. Though my bad luck I had no antifreeze and my water froze outside at -13c. So I took the PC back indoors and im trying to figure out how to get over 222bclk 3D stable. Is it that the cpu ran over 89c or is it smth else? CPU and VGA is watercooled. Had 3x Volcano 12 fans blowing on the motherboard and memory so that wasnt the problem.
What exact voltages to try? I read like 30 pages of posts here so I know something but right now im thinking its the temperatures.. though im not sure. Also HT on i was not able to go above 230bclk but on my modded gigabyte I can run superpi with HT on easy on 235blck. So whats keeping me back? Are there any special bioses i should try?
Can anyone give me a hand with my fan control issue, please?
Check this thread and reply there. :yepp:
Basically, looking for a way to control my 3 pin fans via voltage (or whatever else that works! I suppose the default BIOS option is PWM, and it doesn't seem to work).
Your input would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! :up:
I received my new board today a x58 classified 760-E1. The bios is 6.00 pg. Can someone tell me what's the date of this bios? cpuz shows 30/10/2009!!! Can that de true or is it an older one?
6.00 is the type, not the version.Quote:
