Great triple SLI 480s result Boadar! :up:
Congrats on the gold cup 3DM03 Bodar, well done man !!
Are those TEK9 FAT GPU pots you used there?
Thanks so much Nick and Linuxfan!! :) I did a test once with 4 gtx 480's on air and a 5700mhz cpu clock.. It was also decent.. about 176k.. Maybe there is a 4-way sli gpu frequency combined with a 6200mhz+ that may be good as well.. Or just bump the cpu up to 6400mhz and use 3 of these on ln2 at below 1100mhz.. :D Maybe 1050 might be good.. I dont think anyone is going to beat Nicks 217k score though. that's really awesome!! :D
Thanks Brolloks for all the help on the IOH stuff!! Yeah! tek 9 slim.. There's alot of insulation tape around them.. Makes it look bigger I guess.
i think the base clocks of the 480s are 33mhz i'm not sure..when we were benching 3 480s...we got weird results.... congrats with results...what bios was used for 3d?
nichshih is back!!! nick hows the new kp pot? :D
The bios I used was 704.. I think it's improved with the newer 3d bios.. Maybe I'll try that soon!! Thanks Hondacity!! :D
Thank you for your reply!!Quote:

So I guess rev2 has any problem, now change there rev to rev1.
But as your info, rev 2 is beter than rev1.
I checked some HWBot ranking, SF3D's REX3 is rev1., other top ranker used rev2.
So rev1 & rev2 does not have many changes･････?
Awesome score Bodar!!
for me, is rev 2.0 shows up in CPU-Z but the motherboard is rev 1.04g :confused:Quote:

Guys please dont trust cpu-z with these boards it isnt configured to read them properly, incorrect vcore and display.

Are you talking about cb with the mobo.. If so, I tested an i7 980x yesterday and the mobo shut off at -110c :( Put my favorite chip in and I'm rockin for a few hours straight at -185c :D
I'm pretty sure I have one of the first retails as well.. Hey Nick.. Does the NB pot really help alot on the SR-2? Max clocks on vantage without it have been about 5400mhz so far with two x5680's..
I think that 1.55 version of cpu-z has solved this problem . I will check it again though :)Quote:

Something like u set 1.7v in BIOS , but u only get 1.5~1.6v

U can replace the mobo with ASUS , if u have such mobo with defective chill chip :up:

Espeacially the FPS of 3Dmark benching . make the FPS higher and more stable
but NB also have Cold boot issue . So u have to spend lots of time to taste SR-2 :shocked:
If i use only one VGA Card and CPU Water Cooling
which board give me high BCLK
Gigabyte X58A-UD7 or Asus Rampage III Extreme ?
wow!Quote:

I checkd my rev1 REX3(retail products ver) BCLK limit on air.
The mobo PCB rev is 1.04G, production month is 2010/06.
http://psycho999.blog38.fc2.com/blog-entry-310.html
BCLK=243.8MHz, QPI≒4400MHz
mobo cooling is only stock cooler.
I think rev1 is not so bad.
I think its not noted on box & PCB.Quote:

That's some nice BCLK with high QPI . :D
Did you test highest spi32m BCLK ???
I am very sorry, it just tested only high QPI BCLK limit.Quote:

It's not my ACE chip, just test new chip internal clock.

I think my X58 chip high QPI limit is around 8.8TB.
Man, I think my cpu is finally giving up on me.. :( Got some fun stuff out of it though! Time to find another one.. Testing 2 more this week.. Just tested a new one last week and it was crap..
Max clock when I got my old one was almost 6800mhz.. I need a 7ghz chip :D Do you think tri sli gtx 480 in 05 or 06 might be good with a cpu over 6ghz?
here's a good question... i'm endlessly trying to get my memory to 2000mhz with cpu at around 4.4-4.5ghz (preferably 4.5 but the number is just a goal set, not a major need for the extra couple mhz...).
i'd like to know what a good daily OC'd DRAM voltage is between memory and the 980x that i wont need to worry about frying my $1,000 cpu >.<
currently my system settings is shown below in my sig *recently updated to current values*. i just want to hit 2000 on the memory without loosening the timings more than they already are (9-9-9-24-98-2N). atleast i can say the VTT / QPI voltage i'm running at now is a very large improvement over the previous 1.43-1.48v range i needed for god knows what reason... it just randomly started being stable at 1.28-1.31 range... *XMP profile says 1.25v but i increased it just slightly knowing that 6 stick kits generally need that 1.3+ range*.
just wondering if raising DRAM voltage to say 1.7-1.75v is gonna hurt my 980x enough over the years that it might fry on me... i'm only extremely cautious about it from intel's 1.65v limit warning and so on.
EDIT: Stock speeds of the memory are as posted below; 1866mhz @ 1.65v w/ 9-9-9-24-98-2N timings.
1.7-1.75 is safe :>)
safe for cpu or mems? mayb both?:rolleyes:Quote:

I couldn't get the motherboard to power up, every time that i connected the PSU which is a PC Power & Cooling Turbo-Cool 1KW-SR to the board and tried to power up, the board would malfunction and go dead. I have since gone through 2 other Rampage III Extreme's with similar results. I was completely baffled at this. After the 3rd Rampage III Extreme went dead I decided to get another Power Supply and try it with the 4th board that I got from Asus for the RMA of the 3rd board. I brought the Corsair HX1000W PSU which is on the qualified vendor list of certified Power Supplies for the Rampage III Extreme.
I wanted to see if it was indeed the Power Supply that was causing the problem. When I connected the Corsair HX1000W outside and inside the case to the motherboard after installing the CPU and memory and powered up. The board functioned normally and started up just fine. So I thought "At last I've discovered the problem however the PC Power & Cooling Turbo-Cool 1KW-SR was a brand new PSU but it obviously appeared that it was causing the problem and killing all the boards that I connected to it so I thought that I would just send it back to PC Power & Cooling for them to fix since the unit is still under warranty and that would solve my problem once and for all and I Would also get to get my $219.00 back for the return of the Corsair HX1000W but I held off returning the Corsair PSU until I heard from PC Power & Cooling about what exactly was wrong with the Turbo-Cool and causing it to damage the motherboards that I connected to it. I talked to an engineer from PC Power & Cooling yesterday who tested the unit I returned to them with their Chroma 8000 ATE to find out what the problem was and he told me that they found NOTHING wrong with the unit I returned to them and that about floored me, How could there be nothing wrong with this unit?. There obviously must be something wrong somewhere. My question is "Why doesn't this motherboard work with a brand new PC Power & Cooling Turbo-Cool 1KW-SR PSU?, it has the same basic specifications as any other ATX power supply. Here are the manufactures web site for specs.
http://www.pcpower.com/power-supply/...ol-1kw-sr.html
I've tested this motherboard with 3 power supplies, An Ultra Infinity 600 watt PSU the Corsair HX1000W and Turbo-Cool 1KW-SR. The motherboard works with the first two PSU's but will not work with the Turbo-Cool 1KW-SR. PC Power & Cooling has sent me a B Stock reconditioned replacement Turbo-Cool 1KW-SR PSU but I'm not going to use it and risk killing another board. Does anybody somewhere in the world know what could be causing this issue?
I don't think it's right that I should have to spend an additional $219+tax for a new power supply on top of the $426.00 that I paid for the Rampage III Extreme just to get this motherboard to work when I already had a brand new PC Power & Cooling 1KW-SR. Please help me find the answer to this question.
Thanks
^^
it's probably sending a voltage in a single pin that's slightly too high in voltage or in ampers that's causing a power jump to another circuit on the board and causing a fry. it could very well be why it's not on the white list for the board. also know that some power supply companies DO sometimes have reversed wires on their cables that are not double checked in inspection before going to production. some motherboards can counter this simply by accepting a reversed polarity without any adverse effects, others are more sensitive and wont accept it and fry. this may very well be your case and due to this (in my opinion that is) i would recommend using a power supply listed in the known compatable units for the board.
if it helps any, i'm one source who can tell you an ABS 1,100watt Majesty Modular PSU will work just fine without any issues as another option over the Corsair... though i don't think you should return the Corsair unit you have as it's one massive power house... had it been out when i made my purchase i would have gotten it my self... but no it came out about a week after i made my order >.<
if that's safe... then why does intel do the whole 1.65v thing? is that just a safety net to follow or something?Quote:

i have the following:
Extreme OC - Mode 1
QPI LLC - enabled
LLC - 100%
QPI link - auto
Unclock - auto
cpu settings are the usual and mem timings are set to stock. and i can't seem to touch unclock, system wont post if i do any setting other than auto for some reason...
You probably don't want to hear this, but have tried 4.5ghz with 6gb?Quote:

My, idea was to use the "Reset" on my chassi to switch up to heavier OC and let it stay lower for normal 24/7
I know I could solder som wires on the MB - but I don't feel it's OK
Is this PSU enough for
i7 930 overclocked to 3.8Ghz on a Rampage 3 Extreme
2 x GTX470 in SLI
6 Fans (3 x 120mm, 3 x 140mm)
2 SSD HDD

1 x MCP655 Pump
http://www.xbitlabs.com/images/coole...ndup/2p10s.jpg
And should i connect the EZ Plugs to improve stability?
Jkswe PSU ok. system 100% stability :up:
i have not, only because i've seen people comment that they've gotten it to work at 2000mhz without any issue with the settup i have. yet there's nothing mentioned about what settings were used to get it.Quote:

it just bugs me that i can't even get 1900 over 1866, that's barely an improvement of any kind.
the couple things i do notice that i'm not sure how i can change are:
1 - the ratio on the memory is set to 2:14, i've seen that you can change this but i wasn't sure how and i know that it's a rather high ratio and might help to lower it to get what i'm looking for but i'm not sure how to change that and to what level to change it to.
2 - my data link seems a bit high at 3,200-3,400 and was wondering if that would cause it aswell. the few times i have tried setting it to the lowest link before slow mode it would BSOD but i also think those were times i used a VTT that was a tad too low.
3 - one thing i do notice no matter if i'm OC'd or at fully stock settings, my system will not pass a round in LinX... ever. it constantly finishes one round and stops due to an error yet all my other stability tests go just fine for days when i'm on any clocking i know to be stable *4.4ghz / 1866mhz right now, of which doesn't pass LinX either but passes everything else*.
I personally dont think it is worth trying for 2000mhz on the ram. The voltage required is to high for the very very small performance increase.
2000mhz not worth it but 2150 might beQuote:

Nah it is still in the box, but I check in every once in a while in hopes a bios came out to help with bloomfield oc. My guess is that we just didnt get good boards, some others say they arent hitting the same bclk wall. For 400.00 shouldnt they all be good boards?Quote:

4.4GHz on air, using the Prolimatech Megahalems cpu heatsink and two 120mm fans in push/pull. Had to loosen the RAM timings, though. I like running my RAM nice and tight. I also had to back this OC down because my temps were just too high. Moving to water cooling soon, though. I think i may be able to hit 4.5+ on water with the tight RAM timings (CAS 6).
Picking up a 965 EE ... what BIOS you think I would get the most out of this chip with?
Cause default VTT is 1.2V for Bloomfield and if vDIMM is max 1.65V it doesn't breach 0.5V difference safe limit.Quote:

Probably you uncore+ram is not stable.Quote:

I know it's nothing astounding but I'll be reading up in here and getting to it tonight. I'd like to see a stable 4.5ghz out of this chip.
I tested REX3 new BIOS "0901", today.
I think that "0901" is much faster than "9124" on Air.:up:
Especially, 3DMark 06 CPU test score is improved!!
Test results reported on my blog.
"Overclocking Memo"
Tomorrow, I will test this new BIOS on LN2.
I hope, it will improve extreme cooling limit temp.:D
So... what are the changes?
You can hit 4.5 with the 930 on water no problem. I don't remember what the magic number was exactly but I think it was 21x187, replying to this on my phone so I don't have the settings I used infront of me.Quote:

Any feedback on the new bios versions and LN2? I've been rockin 704 and I love it, so no need to change unless you guys think its better in some way. :)
Alot of problems with reading main cpu temp, cores never had the problem.
They fixed it, need more info...
http://vip.asus.com/forum/view.aspx?...Language=en-us
the latest BIOS i see on the DL at ASUS is the 0802 I just flashed to that one ... is it gonna treat me right?
http://a.imageshack.us/img12/1645/asusrogcomp3.jpg
This is the fastest I can get this to run. I'm hitting a BCLK wall at 216 with memory turned up then I have to thumb down the memory to get it to 218. I can't get it higher than 218 for now :-(
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get this thing to run any faster ? Whats the max volts under water I can put to a 920 DO with blowing it up ?
Its probably not your chip, these boards are no better than average at best for bloomfield (welcome to the "I just wasted $400.00" club) unless you use slowmode. For gulftowm they are very good though.
0901 appears better for my 920. Now I can do super pi 1m in an air-cooled close case system.

Should I take the Chipset cooler of and re-apply a new layer of artic silver 5 instead of the Factory compound?
or just rma the board?
I also installed the optional little cooling block with the fan but it doesn't help....
Yes, remove the heatpipe assy and reapply TIM. They use what I can only guess is yellow dyed gutter sludge and then bake it in the oven until it turns to stone. I saw about a 5-6 degree drop in my temps and you may see much more. If still sucks RMA it.Quote:

DDR 3 2000 really doesn't worth for 24/7, it offers really minimal performance increase and take a huge QPI voltage, I would keep it @ 1600MHz 7-7-7 with 1.3x QPI for 24/7Quote:

802 - 1.27v
860 - 1.33v
Speed at 1866 compared to 1600 on the G.Skills.
What board guarantee higher blck on blooms under water cooling than r3e? I mean over 230?
cause it's seems to be an average blck for this board.
no garantees for 230blkQuote:

even my rexII was good for 229 lol
no you can go higher for the R3E just fine but it requires you to increase PCIE speed to do so. i've seem some get upto 250-ish with PCIE around 115-130 range. you don't need to go subzero unless you intend on speeds over 4.5 to be honest.Quote:

nostromo
edit : screen keeps popping f1, or f2, hit f2 to continue, will boot into windows, but all stock, bios will not save any changes. all ok with 860
edit2: bios will not save any changes, so proper boot order not being saved. I thought it was at least saving that, but it saves nothing.
that QPI voltage is a bit high for 24/7 use... you shouldn't even need anywhere near that high of voltage to begin with with only 6gb of memory. i would bring that down to 1.28-1.31-ish if not lower even at the speed your memory is at, you shouldn't need 1.51v that's breaking the degration zone.Quote:

I am having the SAME issue as Nostromo. Tried flashing from 0860 and same thing happens each time. Made a post in Asus forums also ftw..
Wow that's really low. What are your ambient room temps? Sounds like someone's cheating with AC :p: or i did a crappy job of replacing the TIM.Quote:

I found some bugs about 0860 BIOS, so I never use 0860 BIOS.
When I tested 0860 BIOS, I can not shut-down Windows Vista.
If I shut-down Windows Vista from start menu shut-down buttom, my REX3 locked & can not finish shut-down process.:(
0802, 9124 & 0901 never happen that shut-down problems.
will try it kurumi, thank you.

Same as classy E760, P6T WS pro & UT X58, I need select good one.
When I used these mobo, I selected good one from 5 or more mobo.:(

My REX3 had same problem before re-applying Scythe "Thermal Elixer".
Chipset & heat sink had good contact, perhaps your mobo temp will go down as normal.
After re-apply good thermal compound, temps does not change, just RMA.:D
i seem to be having issues with a 4.5ghz setup again...

PLL - 1.62v *have tried between 1.6 to stock 1.8*
QPI - 1.39v *have tried from 1.31 to 1.48*
DRAM - 1.65v *no need to increase as i'm only using CPU multiplier for higher speeds BUT! i have tried frrom 1.65 to 1.7*

this is i can boot into windows but i constantly BSOD when trying to LinX test for stability about 30-45 seconds into the first round.
Are they using slow mode? That is useless for 3d benches and 24/7 use. My board tops out at 118 or around 237 with slow mode, but i could care less about spi runs. My UD7 so far has maxed out at 231 and without having to use slow mode or 115-130 pcie, 107-109 is all that is needed.Quote:

Yes probably so, however for the premium price they are getting for this board shouldnt they be more consistent? Eventully I will let this go and move on but hope I can prevent someone else from making a bad choice and blowing extra $$$.
