everything else auto
but the motherbord just wont boot do you think i have hit the highest clock with the cpu becuse i can only get 3.6 anything else and it wont post
thanks for the help
Maybe be you have yes but, mine is acting funny I think.Quote:

I can't remember but, it pisses me off. I had everything wrote down to the T and it just acts like the whole game has changed on me now... Is this normal behavior any body? I know that my VDrop, is .066v, is that in spec? I am talking about VDrop here to not VDroop. :shrug:
The overclocking gods have not been smiling on me lately.
How is this board for crossfire? The manual says dual 8x lanes, what does that mean performance wise compared to dual 16x?
Hey Viper, I bench the Q9650 around 4945-4980Mhz and rams using 2:50 strap around 1360-1370Mhz PL 8 > Turbo.Quote:

I can try to retrieve some of my old benching profiles from the UD3. Just need some time.
Hey guys, I don't post much but I figured I'd post my oc settings in case they can help someone out. They have held up since February I think.
Could not have worked this without this place. Love ya all and this mobo:)

Thanks to paul_ for the template:)
Edit- I want to stress the tRead value for anyone with the same board/ram combo. Go up one from the default. I could not break 473fsb and symptoms included core 1 dying out in P95 Blend after a few minutes and the nvidia driver resetting even when surfing the web.
Resolved!!! :clap: :clap: It was the excessive heat from pcb of my 4870 :eek:

+1 for that at the same price the GSKILLPI 1200 and the LV GSKILLS i would not think a minute mates...mines benched till 2,5V and run all day since a year at 2,26 to 2,3 and benched lots of days at more volts, so did Jor and Napalm, Oc nub, Power Chips cant take much voltaje and dont get warm...not the same on elpyda'sQuote:

Those seeking on the UD3P/R great clocks and pump vdimm for benches go the the Gskills PI PC29600 without thinking inmo
Cheers to all :up:

what do think about bios F11? Is it a good bios? [Now I have F9] [I've heard which this bios has some problems...]
I went from F9 to F11. I was hoping F11 might allow me to push my chip a little more. It didnt, in fact it made me unstable at same OC settings as F9, so just yesterday I went back to F9Quote:

ok is a good reason for keep away :D .Quote:

to be honest i would pay 50$-100$ more for pi than a lv ddr2;) i paid 300$ for my set last year so its dirt cheap to me now
my 9650 rig hasnt been turned on since i primed it:ROTF:
god bless my REX:up:
Am I invisible? Come on now guys, I help people all the time no one knows the answer to my couple of qeustions listed above?
relax dudeQuote:

i didnt notice a vdroop on my ud3r v1.1
n you have a v1.6 but its only nb orientation that changed
i say its your psu crapin out lol
I am gussing you are joking with the last part, hope so because I have been wondering to be honest :p:. I was seriously freaking out though like, what the hell???? I have it stabelized it now but I just thought it was weird along with the fact that this board has a .064 VDrop. I was thinking maybe the board is kind of a flunky but, I wasn't to sure.Quote:

Does any one know about the VDrop thing, how much is to much before I should just RMA the board on the whole Vdrop issue?? My Asus motherboard had like, none. Thanks again,
no i was not jokinQuote:

As far as the GTLs "happy spot" changing with OCs, I dont think there is any consensus, as I asked this question a while back. The advice given for the Q9650 was to set VTT to 1.2 then change gtls to .78 and .80 (CPU and MCH). Some people stated that this ratio should remain the same regardless of OCs, and I believe it has worked for some. Others as zsamz has stated say you should continue to tweak the GTLs when you make OC changes. I believe in the first part, but thats only based on simplicity as I dont want to keep tuning them with every OC. I havent done a ton of P95Blend, but for me setting the .78 and .80 at 1.2VTT has worked for all my OCs (Q9650). Of course I have raised VTT but the ratio remains the same. It would be nice to hear from others on this issue.
I won't be going back to Asus until I see they have a winner again in the future maybe but, I am concerned about the VDrop though and wondering if I should care or not still.Quote:

The vDroop of around 0.05V is normal, just enable load line calibration and it reduced greatly.:)Quote:

<Happily plugging away on the new mobo here. Still priming to make sure the new board is where I left off with the old one.
If you own an Intel processor then Vdroop is your friend.
I've said this countless time. I use my stable settings with the Vdroop control disabled and all the C1, C2, EIST, Thermal Management estates on Enabled...
The only problem with this board is that little part that sits between the chair and the monitor.
If you don't have time to sit down, take notes and spend a couple of weeks learning how to OC a quad till 5Ghz, then this board is not for you.
No Asus, DFI, MSI, etc can touch it with Quads.
