Only left is my pcie power connectors from psu that are 8 and 6 pins is that i have to use ?

PCIe plug on mid-board is for PCIe 3.3V. there is VRM on board specifically for this, and the voltage can be adjusted under "VGA Tweaker's Paradise" screen. You do NOT need 8+4 pin CPU plug, I can run my 4.6 GHz and 2666 MHz mem with just 4-pin, even.Quote:

Thanks mate i dont understand ur last line rear I/O power ? I just want to know if i can plug a normal PCIe 6 pin from PSU on the EZ PLUG located above the first red sli slot to help pcie power for 3 way SLIQuote:

Yes normal PCIe plug.Quote:

just north of that plug is also a floppy power plug. right next to PCIe EZ plug. White. It's for rear I/O. you probably will not need it.
Thx man for ur help im getting 3.3 on the PCIe without it plugged did u change anything on the tweakers paradise ? Like giving a bit more than 3.3 or so ?Quote:

Anyway, it improves how the cards run under high clocks, not really increasing clocking ability. you can literally get more points with the same clocks with a properly sourced 3.3V line. I cannot tell you exactly where to end up, I am not running the same cards as you are, and I think each card and config will behave a bit differently here.
Yes i understand what u mean i know how power affects the benchesQuote:

Can u show me a screen of turbo evo and timmings for ur 2666 mem ? Its incredible on the formula both of my kits where rock sokid i have 2 kits 2666cl10 and 2800cl11 none is rock solid on the extreme lol
MVE is not as "user friendly" with ram like other Z77 ROG, IMHO. In order to have it ready for real benching, especially with BIOS used, has slightly different focus than 24/7 like the other boards are for. IMHO.Quote:

G.Skill 266C11 is up now, but 2666C10 dom plats I reviewed with MVF board...same timings apply though.
i got a Gskill TX kit 2666 CL10-11-11-25 1.65 and i load samsung medium profile and fails memtest...with 1,7volts passes 138% memtest...on the Formula i have this super tightened and passes 500% this mem is samsungQuote:

third timmings are on AUTO
please show me your memtweak it and i start with my samsung kit
here is my actual settings using bios 0022
http://i.imgur.com/dNekGqq.jpg
tell me what timmings and i test
thanks for the info mate and tell me your page of reviews the ones i found there are without memtweak it screens just cpuz
yesterday ... everything was fine ....
this morning i got a error code , the first screen freeze , and nothing else happens .
http://i48.tinypic.com/nvy0ir.jpg
manual refers to cpu dxe intialization is started
cpu is an i2600k
HELP PLEASE
Oh man first clean that cauz u have lots of humidity with dust on the mobo user air compressorQuote:

Maybe you can just read this page here, and this will help, IN my experience, it's tertiary timings that are the issue most often when running 2666 MHz+, so I wrote a little bit here about how to adjust them all easily. If it was Shamino that made this in BIOS, he's :banana::banana::banana::banana:ing awesome for having the foresight to do this.:Quote:

I have my CPU in the MSI Z77X-GD65 Gaming right now, have to finish testing for the review, and then I can pop the chip back in my MVE and post some real screenies for you. I kind of get in the impression you aren't looking for standard stuff ,you want something faster than average.
yes Latency Boundary...man its so easy on the Formula and cant believe i ant stable here using same settings :/Quote:

@cadaveca
here's a screenie almost as i did before on the formula except seem that vdimm i used lower now
if anything u see wrong feel free to tell me plz
btw i dont know why BCKL shows -65 lol maybe cauz im using vcore offset mode

edit :
changing memory positions , got 64 again and a 58 .
i believe that mobo is past.

what do you think ?
Well mate sorry to say but u just confirmed what i tought that humix mix of dust made a short anywhere on the mobo from now on clean it oftenQuote:

I tend to use 4 sticks, by your timings I think you are using two.
Try using timings listed in SPD tool. Give Latency Boundry 7-9 a try as well. My CPU is not capable for 2800, but I can bench 2D with it all day with L.B. 8 with Samsungs and four sticks. I haven't had the time to bin the best two sticks of all the sets I got and see if I can push further.
0021 works without any compatibility/overclocking issue with any ram chips
replaced with an other new one .....Quote:

Seems you have a short somewhere I would think - maybe board not mounted correctly or case flexing????Quote:
