QPI/DRAM is too high !!!
I'm testing my 920 @ 4.31 with CPU v @ 1.36, QPI @ 1.3, PLL @ 1.84 and RAM @ 1.65.
I'll post a pic. later tonight hopefully !

For me, vQPI is 1.50v in bios, 1.46v in Windows and read the bios ;)
about my cold boot problems with the bios 1609, I passed the 1506 and problems solved
in an italian forum more people have problem with southbridge temperature sensor.....
anyone have tryed to solve the problem whithout RMA?
rma is too long.....
I'm unable to flash using the Ez flash utility. I keep getting "Unable to load this drive or directory!" error when i pick my flash drive from the list
For me work very well with 1504.

My Motherboard will not boot with Bclk higher than 211 at all !
I tired QPI/DRAM at 1.45v and still no luck !
I really don't like the idea of paying what I had payed for this mobo and not getting what I've expected !! :down:
I tried 2 CPUs on this mobo and seems to be hitting its maximum Bclk that low.
i got this board last weekend and i only today had some time to test the max base clock.
this is with air cooling still, i will test how far i can take it with watercooling and if it can handle subzero temps next :D

I'm sure you mean the particular board you have. When I go over 210 BCLK on mine I have the issue posted earlier with the first video card not showing video. I don't think Asus told you that it would reach a certain BCLK. Even if you tried two CPU's perhaps both could not reach higher.
Lots of different areas than it just being specifically the board. :up:
I were able to boot at 211 and at 220... with Bios 1504 and this 1639... imo, it just depend on the processor... just, i don't need that much and the voltage needing was just too much comparing with what i need for 4.2GHz.
Maybe when my country get cooler i'll try again... currently during the day the ambient temps are around 37C -_-
where do you live ?
It probably depends on your particular board and your CPU. I have run benches at 215 BCLK on air and both cards worked just fine, and using quite low voltages, I
have got 211 BCLK prime/linx stable. 211 is still relatively low, but it was easily achievable.
@ Solarfall - very nice, looking forward to what you can achieve with this board.
I might be asking a bit much, but is it possible for some of you guys to post your settings ?
This is my settings:
MB - Asus Rampage 2 Extreme
CPU - i7 920 3849B
RAM - Dominator GT 2000 CL8
CPU Cooler - Watercooling

Kpablo - think you made an error there. You really can't be using 1.625v for CPU VCORE for just 4.2GHz with a gem 3849B CPU right?Quote:

Anyone has this batch: 3931A231 ?
Mine does 4ghz with 1.23v OCCT stable but canīt pass 217 BCLK.
That is very high for just 4.2GHz, I hope it's a typo.Quote:

I just got the second kit back from RMA and did some testing and found (at this time) that I can run at 7-7-7-20 Memtest stable @ 4.2GHz. What is interesting was I forgot to change from 1T to 2T before I tested.
So is this normal running 12Gb of ram at 1T? I'll test again once I update to the new Bios. I'm hoping to tighten up the timing a little more, something like 6-7-6-20....we shall see. :p:
Fixed!
it's 1.2625v.
:rofl:
I don't know man... i just put 2T because i saw in Corsair Forums, the corsair representatives recommending to put 2T if you want to run at 2000MHz.
I should do some runs at 1T... but i totally forgot it to test it...
Thanks kpablo, anyone else fancy posting up what they use ?
