I principally use my H24 settings (4.8GHZ, no PLL, 1.37v, 2133MHz) for testing BIOS and old one seems to work better than the newz.Quote:

You think the chip can be degraded and need more voltage with time ?
Why do u want to have maximum speed (=max voltage, =max power usage(!)) when u're cpu is idle? :shrug:Quote:

That is THE dream setup IMHO, when idle or just a bit of browsing u're cpu uses much less energy (=money) and when needed it automatically clocks to high frequencies as long as needed.
My 2500K needs more vCore with 1.60A also.
Whereever I was able to LinX(AVX), now I get immediate freeze. Anyway, I'm happy to be able to adjust BCLK with no additional boots etc. Hit 105 MHz(here I stopped, It maybe can do more) and pretested it with no problems.
Vcore remains unchanged for me 1.35v for 4.6GHz, and pending tests it seems like I can even do 4.7GHz on the same voltage now which even with 1.42A I couldn't do.
Same for me, I don't agree with increased vcore usage.
Just for my own curiosity, am I the only Extreme4/6 owner thats replaced all of the stock TIM and pads used on the mobo with proper stuff? For me I swear its made a huge difference, even under heavy load my system barely creates any heat, in fact, most of the exhaust air is still cold.
Cold air is not necessarily a good sign ^^ warm air means your heatsinks are working and dissipating heat into the air, cold air means something is wrong ;)
Nevertheless, the board itself does not create a lot of heat, some of those heatsinks are nearly cosmetic only. Did you replace pads with pads or pads with tim?
I could do this and report back, this board is going to be exchanged soon anyway :)
Guys, I'm having some "weird bottle necking" with my system , as you can see in the picture, my 3d mark vantage is somehow strangely low! After a googling for a while, Ive found some other results with 2500k and GTX 570/580 which are always higher about 4000 points in both CPU and GPU i.e I have 22.0xx but they usually at 26.xxx points. Also, especially the CPU points, these results run from 4800Mhz-5000Mhz(2500k) , and mine is 5100Mhz and 4000 points lower ! How is this possible ? All the drivers are up-to-date thought >.>
I'm using 6950 flashed to 6970
The picture is below:

Your CPU is throttling. Set power limits to 255/255/300.
On 5GHz my CPU score is 25297.
Cold is deffinately good in my case. I take cooling systems apart specifically to make sure everything makes proper contact ;) The heatsinks on the Extreme4 work very well, I've taken those stupid faceplates off :p: I don't like the PCH heatsink though thats a real POS. None the less I lapped it and fixed it in place with some screws and nuts.Quote:

Olivon run the same volts on my cpu,to test.
have you noticed whether you score more in vantage at 5.3GHZ over the 5.4GHZ ?
Anybody???? :confused:Quote:

If somebody can point me in the direction of a board that uses the Realtek ALC892 supporting DTS I'll see what I can do about making a driver that supports DTS and TrueStudio Pro.
P8P67 PRO DTS Connect
GA-P67A-UD4 DDLQuote:
Realtek® ALC892 8-Channel High Definition Audio CODEC
- Absolute Pitch 192khz/24bit True BD Lossless Sound
- BD Audio Layer Content Protection
- DTS Surround Sensation UltraPC
- Supports Jack-Detection, Multi-streaming, Front Panel Jack-Retasking
- Coaxial / Optical S/PDIF out ports at back I/O
Quote:
1.Realtek ALC892 codec
2.High Definition Audio
3.2/4/5.1/7.1-channel
4.Support for Dolby® Home Theater
5.Support for S/PDIF Out
I'll start pulling the drivers apart and see if its possible to support Truestudio and DTS. If the driver can't do both, I'll see if its possible to replace Truestudio with DTS as I think most would find DTS more useful.
I wonder why gigabyte switched to ALC889 for the new of GA-P67A-UD4-B3?
You can measure vdimm right in the DRAM slot :) Vdimm you can find some point on the backwards of your cardQuote:

Most likely just because its cheaper.Quote:
