i personally got the board for 1 - good memory OC abilities, 2 - 6core support / favored and great OC, 3- has 9128 controler for SATA3 raid ability *though not marketed with the board, it's listed as SATA3 raid capable on Marvel's page*, 4- USB 3.0, 5- loads of power stability... it's just a good future proofe board that'll get it's owner some years out of it without a thought of upgrading for a while.
you don't have to have HIGH BLCK to get good numbers, balanced settings will get you where you want to go aswell.
^^I agree..well said :up:
Let us therefore rock the R3E!
when you are working with a 21 multi high bclk is a must, i enjoy playing with the 920/930 do's especially for 200.00 at micro center. I got this board in hopes of going a bit higher than on my ud7, which got me 4.725ghz linx stable on water, but i cant even get close. i refuse to pay 900.00 for a cpu, for me that just takes the fun out of it. it is nice to buy a lower priced chip and see what you can do with it, bloomfield 920/930's and clarkdales are just a blast to oc and wont break the bank.Quote:

I also noticed when flashing from 0860 the process was a lot quicker and didn't seem to flash completely. Thanks once again!
yes rock on with your 4.2:up:Quote:

but i'm not gonna lie, i too am having issues with my R3E and have yet to get much of an answer from anyone on here the times i have posted my bios setings, so i really don't have the help i need to get to my goal or past it, of which i know is more than capable of hitting because it's only 4.5ghz and then times i CAN get it running for a bit at that speed, temps stay to the low 70's at most.

I need a Gulftown chip :-( I can't get this thing past 21 X 218 BLCK no matter what I do.
Going to Vegas in Oct and saving every penny right now. Hopefully I hit it big so I can buy a Gulf when I get back LoL.
bclck=222 is probably highest my air-cooler can handle.

Very nice oc harbin. :up:
I probably wont be testing the new bios on LN2 until this week. My ud9 crapped out as well.. Bummer.. I really liked that board. Big bang x-power seems to work better now. I just said the hell with the IOH HEAT.. I need maximum stability and since the rampage is my favorite benching board I just decided to put an LN2 pot on the NB. All is well while benching when the IOH is at -5c :)
Agreed, this is a temporary OC (currently 4.0 on air, get it, air!).Quote:

I decide to buy this board because I want not to tost my crossfire setup (2 x 5870) first and in future have a cheap 6 core cpu.Quote:

Yeah, I had a same problem with flashing from 0860 to 0901, as I wanted to keep 9124 in other BIOS chip. Solved it same way.Quote:

I have no problem to boot even at 231 (without slow mode), but my W3520 definitely has a wall at 231, because there is no matter if I use slow more or not I can't pass bclk 231. I can't even under windows rise the bclk to 232 :( I think the broblem isn't the board. It depends of CPU potentiality.

This BCLK limit is depend on X58 chip.
My REX3 can raise up BCLK 245MHz with x36 QPI(QPI speed is 8.8TB over).
But in the slow mode, I can not raise up BCLK over 251MHz (QPI speed is around 8,0TB).
My REX3 has BCLK margin when it works slow mode.
But it can not raise up BCLK over 251MHz because of it faces CPU BCLK limit.
So I test x36 BCLK limit & slow mode BCLK limit when I buy new chip & mobo.
If high QPI & slow mode BCLK limit is almost same.
→It faces CPU BCLK limit, change other CPU.
If slow mode can raise up BCLK than high QPI mode.
→It faces mobo BCLK limit, change other mobo.
Sorry, I confused you so much.
So, 0901 is the best BIOS right now, including an i7?
I love β9124 & 0901 BIOS.Quote:

I think 0901 improve 3D06 cpu test score from 9124.
Test results are as my blog.
Very nice results, I also hope to eventually get a 6core chip, but it doesnt look like they will ever be cheap. I think the board is nice and loaded with tons of great features that are all functional unlike some other boards which makes it very appealing, just not ready to make the jump to gt yet. I will keep it so that when the time comes all I'll need is the chip.Quote:

EDIT: what i mean by not booting is that it hangs on CPU check during bios start.
I've read that 980 only need 3:2 ratio uncore to RAM. Here's very nice thread over i4memoryQuote:

Room temps ~26-27c. You run your board in a case? If so which one? Oh also I am NOT using the optional Northbridge Thermal Module.Quote:

8.007 Ghz on my Rampage 3 Extreme with Core i7 920 DO...
LoL
This is what happened today while benching... Screen froze and then it jumped to this and stayed on the screen so I grabbed my G1 and took a picture.
So far the highest boot settings is 216 BCLK on my i7 920 DO. With the ROG connect I can get it to 222 then freezes at 223 no matter how much voltage I give it or settings I change. I think im done for awhile until I get a Gulftown or the next bios comes out. I'm going to order a new bench table ( probably a Danger Den Torture rack ) and LN2\Dice pot and try dice for the first time here soon.
Wish me luck ... LoL

Hi people. I am not an expert as most of you are. I am just now trying to put together this system.
And I need some technical info if anyone here knows.
Well, my two Radeon HD5970 video cards had a hard time fitting into the ANTEC 900 TWO computer case with all my Hard Drives.
So instead of using the PCI-E slots #1 and #3 for CorrosFireX as stated by Asus
I was only able to fit the cards in PCI-E slots #2 and #4
I need to know if this will be ok !?! Will I still get 16x and 16x out of this setup ? And will slot #2 act as the primary PCI-E slot ?
Thing is I heard that X58 chipset has 32 PCI-E lanes for video cards.
I also heard that slots #1 and #2 make up first 16 lanes and slots #3 and #4 make up the other 16 lanes.
So is it not possible to use slots #2 and #4 to get 16x and 16x ???
(Note: I also turned the PCI-E swiches to " off " on all but slots #2 and #4 )
I am just putting it together now, so no OS is installed yet. No way to test.
Can anyone please reply ?
Thank you.
@Samson
PCI-E 1 & 2 share 16 lanes and PCI-E 3 & 4 share another 16 lanes, so as long as there is one VGA in 1 or 2 and one in 3 or 4 you are fine.
There are exceptions though. If using 3 VGA's in 1, 2 and 3, 1st will run @ 16x while 2nd and 3rd will run @ 8x. Also if you have VGA @ 16x and stick in some sound card for example in near slot @ 1x, you won't slow down VGA, IIRC.
Thank you so much for the info !!Quote:

Are you sure it will not ??
Anyways, I will not be putting in any additional video cards.
I will only be using PCI-E slots #3 and #4 for my two Radeon HD5970, and the
standard PCI slot for a 56K Modem.
So I am safe to put my 5970's in slots 3 and 4 and still get 16x/16x bandwidth ??
No, you can't use 3 & 4 and maintain 16x speed for both. You said you will be using 2 & 4 and it would be OK for 16x/16x. :up:
You can use 1&3 or 1&4 or 2&3 or 2&4 to keep it at 16x/16x, and not 1&2 or 3&4 as it will drop to 8x/8x.
About using x1 card by the side of VGA and maintaining VGA at 16x, I'm 99% sure, as I read it somewhere what people tried, but didn't try it myself.
alright so...
4.3ghz / 1880mhz mem is Prime95 stable for 19 hours, 27 minutes on all 12 threads and no errors... yet it wont pass a 20 round test in LinX... i think something is wrong with LinX.
i think there was an update for 980x for linxQuote:
Originally Posted by skuldarin

i had no problems with linx and 980xQuote:

But thank you so much for the perfectly clear reply. The good side of my
error is that it caused you to give an even more detailed explanation of
which slots can be used for 16x. It is crystal clear now, and should be to all
looking at this topic.
Thank you again.

EVERYTHING else i have to stress test with passes the 4.3ghz / 1880mhz setup and does it solid for nearly 24 hours straight... yet LinX thinks it's not stable... i don't trust it... specially when it's not exactly putting 100% load because i get nearly 15% more power consumption when testing with Prime.
I can confirm that using a sound card in slot 4 or 2 does not slow slots 1 and 3 at all,
currently I have a D2X in slot four and both my 5870s are running at x16.
6x2GB at high speed is tough for IMC, many wil need 1.35 ~1.45 on QPI/VTT to be able to run it stable..Quote:

DDR3-2000 with 12GB of memory unconditionally stable, is going to be difficult. I achieved DDR3-1904 with 12GB at 7-9-8-20 - using a GSkill PSC based kit. If you can get that, it is more than enough. Alternatively, you can aim for DDR3-1600 CAS 6 with a tRCD of 6. Higher bandwidth does not add up to much as the dominating factors for random access are tRCD and tCL. A tRCD of 6 at DDR3-1600 gives you a plenty fast random access time of
7.5ns, versus a time of 8 ns with a tRCD of 8 at DDR3-2000. The burst time period will be a little faster at DDR3-2000, but not by enough to make any kind of noticeable difference to applications.
i had no problems with 12gb of dominator gt @ 2050mhz 8-8-8-24 with 980x i had 1.42v for qpiQuote:

Great ! Good to know. Now we have an answer to that as well. Thank you.Quote:

how much memory are you testing with prime?Quote:

IMO that is the only reason blend passes and linx fails (not enough mem selected), on older platforms where 2 or 4gb was the norm linx required a little less voltage to pass, and on my x58 if i set custom blend and use more memory blend is still harder to pass. using the latest version 26.xx i bsod in blend on a linx stable system, 4500mhz.
hey skuldarin I found linx the hardest to pass with 980x. So if you're looking for 24/7 stable definetly run linx 25K+ problem size and maybe a quickie Hyper Pi run
i do custom blend and test the rough amount of available memory like LinX does (before i used LinX i was testing 10gb of memory leaving the rest with a bit of head room for windows and whatnot while testing.). i've been making sure to test as much memory as possible every time to insure stability.Quote:

i'll try it and see if there's any differences. right now i'm testing 4510mhz / 1866mhz @ CL7 (7-9-7-24-72) and in the middle of the 10 and 5 minute passes right now. almost every attempt i've been doing hasn't passes the 10minute 16mb test but this one just finish without errors so i'll update later.Quote:

i play bc2 mostly, getting tired of overclocking for now. i run the i7 930 at 4600mhz to play the game with ht disabled, but i dropped vcore down from what it required to pass linx because it has run the game fine for many many hours with no issues at all. i ran linx a lot to get on that 4.5ghz linx stable thread but other than that i could really care less if it passed, as long as it does what i need it to without problems.
Hehe your like me. I did it just for that thread. Otherwise I tend to just run Hyper Pi 32M multi core and then if it passes just play games etc. After a while you get used to how the cpu behaves and just up a setting here and there then all good.Quote:

@ 4.5ghz / 1866mhz CL7, it passes Prime95 previously tested upto 11 hours and no hickups, it passes Pi multi on 32m repeatidly with no issue and it passes memtest easily enough aswell all without BSOD at the following:
vcore - 1.44v
vtt - 1.3125v
dram - 1.7v
IOH - 1.23v
PICE - 1.53v
uncore - 2800
link - 7444mhz
ratio - 29x155
cpu - 4.510ghz
mem - 1866mhz @ 7-9-7-24-72-2T
average temps - mid 70's
peak temps - 84*c on core 1, 82 on core 5, 79 on the rest
EDIT: not to mention the only error i get from anything at all is with World of Warcraft. it does get a critical error on a very RARE basis but other than that i don't have any issues.
i'll do more stress testing tonight but here's a shot just before i did about an hour of FFT-12k stressing. i used a memory size of 10512mb (left about 200mb headroom for whatever operations were going in the background). FFT-12k testing showed a peak temp of 89*c but there's much that i do that hardly gets the cpu past 70*c so i'm not worried about it.

Be sure to enable extreme 0V in BIOS and turn off OCP to DRAM and perhaps VTT.

hye guys..is it possible for me to hit 3600 uncore with my 1600mhz dram mem..??i've set the timings to 8-8-8-24/88..i've push my cpu vtt till 1.400..but keeps on error on linx after 11th test..huhu..any guide..? ..or i have to get the 2000mhz ram in order to achieve that 3600 uncore..?

(I know of "sense amplifier" in DRAM, but no more than that)
2. Why should "extreme 0V" be enabled?
3. How to "turn off OCP to DRAM and perhaps VTT":confused:
Thanks.

2&3 answer each other - Enable extreme OV to get access to the OCP settings.
THX for sharing!!Quote:

About "3D06" overall score, around 300~500pt down from "0901"
I believe the last one I tried was 0806? I'll be using the most recent when I do the 3D runs. I was a little dead after work yesterday so I didn't do anything.Quote:

Juts got my R3E today. First Asus board in many years and I am far from impressed. Ethernet doesn't work. Takes 2 minutes to POST. Takes 4 minutes to exit BIOS & POST. Tried the 0901 bios and it does the exact same things. :down:
Ouch M8... Definitely needs to be returned. I have had two and neither have had any of those symptoms.Quote:

^ please dont say "us", i am not impressed either lol.

Because I would like to run 4 videocards for folding plus my ioXtreme. This is the only standard ATX board that will do so.Quote:

i dont need more than 3 pci-e slots
For some reason, R3E runs my i7 920 at 20x multiplier under ubuntu while in windows 7 it runs at 21x. Bios was set at 21x. Anybody knows if there is a fix for ubuntu running 21x?
Can that board break 222 blck? I will be running a cascade as soon as ruffus finishes mine.Quote:

nope the board tops off around 220Quote:

Seriously, we have all had bad experiences with hardware. I find if I sell it and move on I feel much better than if I harp incessantly on a forum.

Board is not perfect but no more Gigabyte for me and DFI is gone. It honestly suits my needs perfectly. Seems simple to me, Classy for Bloomfield, R3E for Gulftown. :shrug:
:yepp: the board is perfect for gulftownQuote:
