I for one have heard good things about Asrock OC Formula, SF3D had his clock memory very nice. In my book, ASUS ROG Z77 and Asrock Formula are the two top choices for mem oc.

O yes it is ,just because you didn't have luck with the board at particular time and moment it doesn't mean the board suck ,i tested some RAM (PSC- on M5G) samples from Loud and i couldn't do the timings he did ,the board is great for memory clocking, I really enjoyed it .There is no need to be biased about one particular brand ,model,etcQuote:

What do you want me to do,binn 100 sample to find one proper one?Srsly?
try adding 0.03V on gene dram voltage,see if it matches the formula.
As for as i am concerned,asrock oc formula clocks psc little better than asus,but rest of ic's are not so good.Period.
Top 10 in 32m beg to differ:p:
It is split almost down the middle between Asus and Asrock.
I have never been able to get any of my bbse to run the same on Asus as it does on Asrock, but I am sure it is more a setting/timing I must be dialing in wrong, it is not that the board sucks, rather my tuning skills suck:D As for setting a bit more vdimm, I have tried that as well with no avail, so don't think it is a voltage issue.
And keep in mind I have owned 2x Genes, a Formula and Extreme from the ROG lineup and to be honest I feel the best one was the MVG when it came to memory overclocking the 2GB classics, while the MVF seemed pretty dialed for Hynix and Samsung.
ps I never said you were biased:)

I actually had a bad ASRock Z77-OC myself at one point. I had to work really hard to get good PSC samples to even boot at 2600 and most of the time it would shoot me a 55 error which left a bad taste in my mouth. I went back to my proven MVF and I thought that had finally died over the weekend (it hadn't, it's still very alive) and so decided to give another z77-oc a try and I am not disappointed this time. Clocks PSC and Samsung with ease, with slightly less voltage than my MVF, but I'd still put them head to head as my favourite boards.
I have owned Z77X-UD3H (still have), Z77X-UD5H (only dead z77 board), Z77X-UP7 (awesome 3d board), Asus MVF (one of my favourites for mem clocking), Z77-OCF (Probably my favourite for mem clocking with the better overclocking software over the mvf). I have not had much success clocking PSC on giga, but I haven't really had the board for it either, I know bullant has had some flying runs and clocks on giga boards so they can all clock.
seems like ocf is pretty good mem board to me ;)

(asus is not bad either)
Splave, at your second screen I see AI SUite, so ASUS M5E(F,G) seems very good boards too )
that is my point bro :) both are good
And that is the proverbial nail in the coffin per se:)Quote:

^ idk where you guys find the good trident bbse, Im pretty sure there is none in the USA
Isn't 1.8 volt for those settings pretty high for bbse. Curious, how bad is "normal" Trident bbse?Quote:

Bad BBSE, Trident or not, will not even give you 2133 cas7 at 1,75v - that?s the reality outside of pre binned highend ;)
how about no boot at 8-11-8 2400 1.85v XD
^Happened so many times. lol
Then I bought yours probably on at least once, sold to someone else on ebay, then you got em back over and over :P
Going to write "Suprise MOFO!" on the thermal tape of anything I put on ebay. haha
Ebay should put "ignore" button and item on sale is traceable to original seller. Lol
hmmmmm....no

I think my BBSE isn't good, max on air 2450 8-11-7 and this modules didn't like voltage higher than 1.84V. I think it's middle BBSE )Quote:

From a triple-channel set of trident 1600 6-7-6,one module does 2500 8-11-7 with 1.83,one with 1.88 and one with 1.9....The best module does 2600 8-11-7 twcl 7 at 1.90,2666 at 1.95.Damn... :(
Nope ) Postcode 55 )Quote:
