Hey guys, im having a hard time on my Gigabyte UD5 board. It just cant do 240BCLK, everytime I but 240BCLK on the Turbo Mode turns itself off, why is that? Do I need subzero cooling? Im on water right now..
This is driving me nuts, my 920 should do 5GHz with ease but this board is holding me back :(

and SuperPi 1M, upping by 1MHz more BCLK the Turbo turns off, up to 240MHz is stable though.

could you post your full bios settings for 239bclk?Quote:

And I believe your CPU just cannot handle it tbh... Need cold I guess.
could anybody who has been able to run 210bclk and higher
please post your bios settings.i know what settings work for
one setup wont work for others,but i for the life of me cannot
go higher than 205bclk.i must be missing something.i been
reading all week about i7 OCing and still no luck.please somebody help.
thank you
I'v had several GB Extreme/UD5 mb's, all of them go to around 210-215 on stock bios values with my cpu's.Quote:

PCI bus should also be set at 102 or 103.
To get past ~218 or so I usually need to play with IOH Clock skew, reduce cpu pll, and sometimes give IOC core a little ekstra.

Setting for above run was (by memory):
CPU clock skew 500
IOH clock skew 750
PCI 103
QPI/Vtt 1.28v
CPU pll 1.4v
IOH 1.18v
IOC 1.18v
The mb is not modded yet.
+1 for bios settings. My UD5 would break 222blck. My CPU will also do 5GHz+ but board is holding me back. I just killed the board and buying a new one. If I can buy another UD5 instead of spending $500CAD on a classified I'll be happy.Quote:

PlatoonSgtElias, you're a freakin animal & it's awesome. I've booted into windows @ 235 x 21 for 4935 but didn't dare try running any kind of stability test (or any load whatsoever).
You're just on water? How many rads do you use & do you keep them in a fridge or something?
FTW - Animal? lol, im human :P
Umm I cant boot into win above 230BCLK, somehow it dosent recognize my HardDrive then, weird.
I use the watercooling that you can see in my sig. I benchmark on the balcony, well my PC is there, I close the door and bench in a warm room :P
Anyway, I finetuned setfsb and got to the point that 235,6MHz is ok but 235,7MHz it will drop the TURBO. Tryed to use EasyTune6 also but no help. So im at a loss, anyone know why is this happening? :(
Btw, what volt is normal for 4GHz on a good D0 24\7? Mine needs 1.3000v in bios and is rocksteady then without turbo, if I turn turbo on 4200MHz its not stable anymore, that kinda sux, this cpu should do 4GHz with 1.1v but I think this motherboard is just not up to it (N)
Am i seeing this right?
A singel tripple (slim) for a Ci7 and SLI?...
Don't want to see the water temps. :D
Guess your running into thermal throttling.

temps while benching are couple of posts up. Motherboard is cooled by 3xVolcano 12 fans, if you know what they are
Human, but still an overclockin animal. I would love to get cold enough to throw that kinda vcore at my chip & see what it could do (planning to order my first DICE/ln2 pot this week).
I use 4.2 Ghz for 24/7 OC, setting vcore @ 1.275 in the bios with llc enabled (qpi 1.26V). In windows I get 1.248 idle & 1.216 loaded. Haven't run 4.0 for a while I believe I was at 1.237 vcore in the bios. All chips are kinda different though, yours may need more but it still takes it & puts out, some just have a wall no matter how much vcore you throw at it. I'm hoping mine just takes the voltage & keeps going faster like yours does.
thanks guys for the templates ill give it a go.
ill get back to you.again thank you much
Forgot 1 screen, in cpu features I have: all cores on, turbo boost, multi threading, thermal monitor & prochot enabled. C1e, c3 etc., eist, & virtualization are disabled.
ok thanks.
Does virtualization cause any stability issues? I do quite a bit of virtualizing so its very benificial for me to have it enabled.
I think it should be the other way round. Will overclocking causes virtualization not to be stable? :rolleyes:Quote:

So i couldn't boot with my QPI Clock Ratio and Uncore Clock Ratio on Auto. With a blck at 191 that should be well under the specs of 8 and 4. As soon as i use x36 and x16 it boots fine. I see that FtW is using auto at 210 blck. Ideas? Sorry for the newbieness here guys alot of new information on core i7 :P
Guys, I have the 6GB Triple Kit Corsair 1600 7-7-7 but I have to use 1.66v in bios to maintain stability @1600, Health Status reads 1.645v. Any one is using same kit? I have read some ppl can run this ram @ 1600 7-7-7 with 1.62v but I'm not sure.
1.66 is safe :)Quote:

It has been running stable with this Vdimm on it's rated speed, but raising the tRCD makes it more stable, including on this HyperPi32M run @1680MHZ 7-8-7-21 1.65v and CPU @4.41GHZ(210x21) 1.32v.Quote:

Thanx for clarification, does this ram use BBSE chips? and you was able to get stability with this ram @ 1600MHz 6-7-6?Quote:
