i finally got my waterblock on
@ 4.5 cpu is @ 38c idle 69c @ linx but
my nb is 50c and my pwm is 45c idle 60c n 55c load:mad:
i think i gotta remount again:(

That are normal temperature for those elements. You don't need to worry about it.

No, it isn't normal. I have about 50°C load with air cooling and 40mm fan at 5v

I think he have only CPU waterblock ? If I'm wrong than it IS high temperature.

Doesn't matter, on stock heatsink that is also high temp... But I think he have WB on NB as he wrote ,,i think i gotta remount again''

^^ What cooler? If yours turns out good I may try watercooling the board for the first time.

Thanks radaja, I hope it does also. This is my first EVGA X58 board, after my last 2 boards, rex3 with crappy bclk, and the p55a ud7 with defective foxconn socket I am ready for a good one.

I think CLASSIFIED 3 will do just as good or better than the regular E760. It's so mature right now, and it's a very good performer. Hope it does well to you. Regards, and tell us about it.

im trying desperately to get a used E760,which will be my first eVGA board
also.kind of worried about using a new bios format(been on gigabyte so long)
because i dont like confusion frustration when it come to OCing.so let me know
how it goes for you and how dealing with a new bios format goes:up:

today after long time with no test i've fired up the board with the 950 and 3x2gb kingston mgh-e-hyper...so, same config as always.
all was at air cooling, but the mobo at the first boot stuck on FF.
4 hours later i retried the board and this time it works "fine"...but...only with QPI in full mode. :rofl:
when i set slow mode the board start and pass from F8 --> F3 --> F6 --> F8 --> some strange codes (e.g. d4 - that means nothing.......).
if i press reset button the mobo restart and this time boot apparently normaly but when i'm in windows with CPUz and CPU-Tweaker i ALWAYS see memory in 2:8 and uncore 16x.
there is no :banana::banana::banana::banana:ing way to make it boot with another memory or uncore multiplier with QPI in slow mode.
and this occurs with bios S61A, 44 and 74 ALSO WITH LOAD OPTIMIZED DEFAULTS and only QPI slow mode and dividers modified by me.

in less than 3 months it gave me alot of trouble, every time there is something that doesn't work properly.........

Thanks Federico.

Will post results with the new board asap, I am excited to finally try a Classified. I picked the rex3 over it last time, turned out to be mistake.

It is weird switching to another brand after using giga so long, but once you play around with it a while it feels normal again.

zsams had 2 classi's radaja, maybe he is still looking to sell one.

i had 2 1 did 229blk 1 did 231 blk sold the 229blk one

i shoulda bought the e760 it was same price as the rexIII:mad: rexIII was a pure waste of $

anyone got a spare standoff can measure thickness of stanfoff
my block is a pure pain :mad:

I have the apogee XT water block, the backplate wont work on the e770 classified 3. I was going to order the HeatKiller 3.0 backplate to replace this one but keep my XT block. Does anyone know if this will work?

The backplate for the XT is square and will hit these circled in red. They stick out enough to make me nervous putting any pressure on them.

the heatkiller screws are much thicker

just cut the backplate in that area
10-12-2010, 07:00 PM

^^ Thanks, think I have it figured out, cut out slots in the xt backplate so they wont hit. What cpu block are you using?
10-13-2010, 06:41 PM
OC Nub

Well this is the slowest build I have done. Got home late, but was able to get the XT backplate to work. Hopefully this weekend I will build.
Next I have to clean up the wires on this non modular psu.

Got the board running a few minutes ago, will take some learning. The board overvolts quite a bit, but this was my first try at these bclks, NO SLOWMODE, havent done any testing yet, just wanted to see if it booted at 230bclk from bios. Need to figure out the VTT, not like my giga board.

bro
hmm i know u already mentioned to me in KPC that the ioh skew and cpu skew has to be aligned etc..
but eh.. asus having both of it off .. can stabilize high bclk's with high qpi speeds.
so was just wondering to ask again for it.
also is it possible to have a tWL on dram timings like giga boards do.
hmm cause still trying to run a 2k C6 psc on a 920. its like some of the subtiming issue or etc... but works fine on a 980x

also hmm just ordered a 770.waiting for fedex, so wondering what does that jioh jumper do ??

cstkl1, mate, iirc Peter ain't working at evga anymore. Maybe post it to their forums, hope you get heard. :up:

/edit.
Seems like the E770 is a great board and clocks bclk nicely without exaggerated voltages. Seems mine E759 (NB rev1.2) can get there only with some pushing and under cold. Can boot at 21x235 with singlestage... but it's nowhere near stable.
10-15-2010, 03:22 PM
OC Nub

Thanks guys, seems to be a very good board for bclk. Havent done any testing still, just got home. Having fun just getting it to boot with over 230, a number my rex3 will never see. Will save settings and post later. This was 235 set in bios, but comes up a little under that in windows. Im not sure if E-Leet tune reads the temps right but I do have fairly cool air blowing at the open case.

Does the E770 have the VT double pump issue when rebooting?
10-15-2010, 09:48 PM
OC Nub

^^ Im not sure what that is.

First test Ive done with the board. Short LinX run 4500mhz 1.388v load, screen shows 1.399v but went down to 1.388 most of the run at load. Could possibly get vcore lower, this was my first try with the board. I have to say I thought it would take more vcore with this board than my UD7 for the same clocks but it is not voltage hungry. VTT, IOH core, and QPI PLL were set same as on the UD7 for 4500 once I figured out how to adjust for the board overvolting, can pretty much use same settings for the same clocks. Unsure about what to set the IOH PLL so I left at default 1.80v, my UD7 doesnt have this setting.

The board doesnt have LLC1 and LLC2 option, so I set it to With Vdroop, the board overvolts when using Without VDroop so I dont like using that option.
The 3rd screen just shows voltages set.

I note a little bit strange behavior of my system:

I7 980x - 016Axxx
EVGA 760 @ 74 BIOS
3x2GB Team 1866 mhz
Corsair HX1000
Water cooling

The CPU is stabile 4200mhz@1.305v in Prime95 small FFT (30 min – max temp 67 degree) and makes 4589mhz@1.529v in Vantage (max temp 83 degree) or 4608mhz@1.517v in Vantage (low BCLK).
The issue:
I increased vcore to 1.56v but I cannot finish Vantage not even at 4620 mhz. I always get windows error “….has encountered an error and need to close...” I tested from 4620 MHz to 4.800 MHz @ 1.56v but I get the same error. After I close error window the system work.
At 4.900mhz@1.56v I get the BSOD.
On SS I only managed 4900mhz@1.62v in Vantage with Idle temp -15 degree and max temp 28 degree in Vantage. The behavior is the same@4940-5100mhz – windows error.
Any idea?

I get Windows Error, "Windows Desktop Manager stopped responding and needs to close" (or something like that) if it isnt stable under full load. Once I increased voltages and get it somewhat stable it doesnt happen.
10-15-2010, 10:59 PM
Sam_oslo

"Windows Desktop Manager stopped responding and needs to close", is caused by unstable display/PCIe.
Usually means unstable chipset, the BCLK is too high for voltages applied to IOH/chipset.

Didnt know that, thanks.

Ran 06 at 229bclk, 230 set in bios. My Rex3 jumped out of the box and hid behind the couch when I ran this. Im pretty happy with this board.

Another short LinX run with the new board, the voltage required are just as good clock for clock as on the UD7. Its seems to be a very good board. Idle vcore is high because I didnt use LLC.

Cheers dude. :)

Do you find your VTT overvolts? +225 should give me 1.425v but it's 1.5v idle and 1.55v load!!!
10-25-2010, 10:01 AM
Mafio

don't know, later i will check with DMM. :)
with the 2 others 760 i've used i've +0.04 and +0.02 on VDIMM but all the other voltages are always very close to what i set in bios.

+0.05 positive drop isn't a good thing if it's in a DU rig.
if i were you i would try with load line calibration disabled, maybe it solve the problem.

p.s. NB temperature of this one is at least 20° lower than what i had with the first 760.

yes, i know, in fact i've always used less, but with this particular board if i want high BCLK i need auto. :shrug:

@kup:

VTT bios = real VTT
VDIMM overvolts by 0.07 v - 1.8 gives me 1.868 :D
all the others are very close to bios setting

I have EVGA 760 CLASSIFIED motherboard whit post code 25 ....

Press start pc ... no boot and on db-led error code 25 ... i press reset buton ... pc boot and work ...

I try more cpu ddr power suplpy and video card in diferent position ... and same problem ...
I rewrite the bios(E76074.bin) whit load default seting .... same problem
I remove the bios battery for 12 hours and stard whithout keyboard,mouse or hdd connected ....did not work

the board is not death ... she run ok after restart ... and video card is ok

1) Whith default load seting or overcloking setings the board have same problem >>>> push start button ... on DB-led show 25 ... press restart button and the board pass 25 tu 26 ... and boot .... and board is bunctional in bios and windows ... can be done overcloking

I try in diferent combinations :
i7 920 D0 + i7 930 D0
3x2 Corsair Dominator GT 2000CL8 (elpida hyper MGH), 3x2 Corsair Dominator 1600CL8, 2x1 Corsair 1600CL9, 2x2 Walton Chaintech Apogee GT DDR3 1866 cl9(PSC), 2x1 Kingstone 1066 cl7(elpida BABG chips), 2x2 elpida (elpida BBSE)

has anyone here used a corsair HX850 with the E760 and tried to use both 8 pin cpu power connectors.
the HX850 doesnt have two but according to jonny guru he said you could mod and existing cable to work

Quote:

About the only place they don't have you covered is if you have the rare board that needs two 8 pin EPS connectors.
That's when you start butchering the modular cables. It would be relatively easy to cobble something together that would run
from one of the blue connectors to the second EPS.

question is-wouldnt i want to use the black modular connector rather than the blue?blue is where the pci-e cable connect to.
is it the same power between the blue and black?
also do i need to use both 8 pin connectors?does it provide a big enough benefit to OCing on the E760 to worry about?

If you can point me in the direction of the info I'd be happy to test exactly this for you as I have a 760 and the HX850 (and dozens of spare modular cables). :)

EDIT: Or more so, is the second EPS connector the same pin layout as the first (I can't find any decent pics)?

yea he really doesnt go into it anymore than what was said in the quote i posted.thats why i was wondering
how to go about trying it.do i use the blue inputs or the black inputs on the actual PSU?do they put out different
amounts of current?heres the review i got it from maybe you can see something that helps
Reviews - Corsair HX850 850W

i have extra PCI-E cables too and could try it when my E760 gets here.
just want to make sure im using the right inputs

I have a 1000HX and the extra EPS12V cable goes into the blue connectors. The connectors look the same on the 850HX so I'd imagine it would go on the blue ones there. I wonder if the 1000HX cable would work on the 850HX?

OC Nub,yea i just wasnt sure if he meant blue cable to mod or blue input to use.

Shiranui Gen-An,thanks for clearing it up.so now i just need to figure out how to mod
it(wiring order for cpu)

OC_Nub did it worked as good as with two 8 pin cpu connectors?
and please post a template or two for 4.2-4.4GHZ :D
I'm really newb to EVGA and there are a lot of settings I don't really know how to set them ... like CPU PWM Frequency and QPI PWM Frequency ...
I don't know where are the RTLS and many others ... this is new bios to me and I really need a starting point

This is how I have it setup, has been good for 4500mhz 4 threads.
Check voltages with a DMM, can grab one for 20.00 at radio shack or home depot. Dram over volts, and QPI/VTT takes some figuring out because it is in +mv. E-Leet is wrong on some of the voltages like dram and vtt.
The easy read points are very easy to use like it says.

+75mv gives me 1.28VTT real tested with a DMM, yours may be different, e leet reads much higher.
1.60v DRam set in bios gives it 1.634 real tested with a DMM, 1.65 in e leet.

For 4300-4400mhz I dont think it would matter if you used a single or dual 8pins for the cpu. I ran linx at 4500mhz last night (a short run) and it passed using a single 8 pin, gflops werent steady like before, could have been my settings though, not sure why.

Dual EPS mod done, I used two of the blue PCIE cables and plugs, taking two 12v and GND from each. Initial tests show absolutely no difference at all. lol I'll try some 4.5GHz LinX later to see if it's stabilised things there at all.

EDIT: It might just be me (and Linx testing later will confirm) but I think the CPU is running cooler now...

great to hear.i also heard that using two helps with the IMC which helps in better memory stability for extreme memory OCs?
but i might have misunderstood it.but its good to know i can mod it with my existing cables(that came with)my HX850:D

i cant seem to get the x21 to work?

radaja, if I enable turbo it still shows 21x multi on this 930 in bios but in windows it shows the 22x multi.

Managed to get 2300mhz mem but looks like it drops a channel unless I raise the timings.

you know i never checked,i just kept rebooting into the bios to see if any of my
changes i tried had worked and then when i finally booted into windows it failed
so loaded defaults and then posted here on how to fix it:D
man these voltages are whacky,it loads my vtt at stock as 1.24v so +100 gives
1.36v but load it jumps to 1.39v.

you test with dmm? e leet reads very high but with a dmm vtt was much lower.

Just started linx, e-leet reads vtt at 1.37v and dmm reads 1.28v. have it set to +75mv in bios

i havent tried a DMM yet but i will soon.what kind of temps are you getting on vreg and NB and MB sensors?
i got the AC blowing in hard and still at 27c vreg/39c Nb/17c MB? i cant figure out how to get NB and vreg
temps down like the MB sensor.i have three 40mm fans blowing directly down ove socket and another on NB

took 1.71v dram and 1.60vtt. stopped after that, dont want to kill anything.

vreg is 29c, this software doesnt show nb on this c3 yet, only place to check is in bios, which doesnt do a lot of good. with your cooling im sure everything is fine.

aida64 and everest read board as unknown still.

use mch strap 1333 and u will get better timings

the new bios
hmm seems a lot of ppl dont know how to use it

with the tWL and tRL ( it was incomplete without the tWL)
and the tREF

u can use any other manufactorer ram timings
example like r3e bclk 200 C8 2:10 timings

http://i287.photobucket.com/albums/l...1/af11e3ee.png

r3e timings are much more mem timings tighter but
less strained for ure Uncore especially on C7 and C6 on 2:10

^^ Thanks, strap makes a big difference in sub timings and in aida64 bench, I was using 1600 to try and keep it stable. Trying 1066 strap, required 1.67vDimm.

just raising uncore seems to give me the best boost even with 1600 strap.
