Unbuffered is when you turn the optimisations off like in the bottom right of this screenshot (credit to http://i4memory.com/f29/highest-sand...64-52/#post234:

Hello all im having a big problem i cant get RAID0 or any other RAID config. on this PC , i have been trying for 6hr with no luck do i need a floppy drive for this to install the drivers cause i dont have one plz HELP
Voltage Error!
When I set in the BIOS the core voltage to 1.526 I got this error and it would proceed.
I am sure this is a safety feature...how do I change it if I want to?
Hey guys,
has anyone measured with watt meter his system?
I bought recently this meter because I was curious if my 750w Corsair was too much for this sytem.These are the results with 1,475vcore and 3.450mhz (daily use):
*During booting 300-400w
*During the loading of windows bar in black screen you can see 500+w
*In windows Idle mode around 330w
*In windows Full load mode 500+w.Sometimes maxed at 600+
So, I guess it was a good choice to hit a 750watt psu..
Any OC to the VGA?
I checked some links for the vga.

260watt in LOAD, without any OC and in default voltages
Imagine my 4850 at 750/1200 and in 1.158 voltage.300watt for sure!!
Also for the CPU:

308watt only for 3.1giga
No worry why you need 600+watt PSU for an OCed system.
Edited my signature for correct details in daily use. :)
Waiting for Deneb and I must also change ancient ati 2900 to a newer one. Maybe bigger power and so on. You know the endless circle.
very sorry for the noob question here, but i've searched on google and found nothing. i see a lot of posts mentioning ACC. what is ACC? is this a bios setting? AOD setting? too bad i can't use AOD as i'm running windows server 2k8. also, i think i'm missing some bios settings, especially in the chipset section under pci express. i don't see the options for port #2,3, and so on. i wish i can access these settings to change the pcie setting to 16x instead of 8x. i have my two 4850 in crossfire connected to both blue slot which should be running at 16x in crossfire. i know they're not in 16x mode but 8x mode as gpuz shows that. btw, some specs
bios 0403
amd 5000+ am2 BE
4gigs gskill ddr2 800
asus m3a79-t mobo.
so far i'm learning more about this board. i'm going thru 50% of the posts on this thread. please help. you guys are awesome. thanks in advance
Hmm, this is very interesting. I have an Antec Neo HE380W psu with three +12V rails, 15A each. Well, with this board it gives a nice 12.03V for that line and with load to all cores its about 11.98V or so(atleast according to asus pc probe), with previous boards it gave 11.8V and even 11.5V without some bios update to the board(dunno why), and it didnt even start very often with that board(MSI KA790GX without bios update) and the whole comp. shutdown sometimes.
Well, now I have this asus.. works flawless and starts everytime etc, BUT when i get to some point in OC it totally restarts the whole machine everytime(usually in LOAD ofcourse), the voltage readings are the same 11.98V .. just wondering if I only have PSU issue, and not CPU in OC. Its 3.1GHz 24/7 LOAD stable, but even with 3.125GHz it restarts or jamms within 1-60minutes in load. .. ?
Thanks cbjaust,
Because I was curious I did a little test and ran the benchmark 20 times with buffers/fusion on/off.

Seems best results are archieved with unbuffered and fusion enabled.
I did an similar test few weeks ago. I ran the benchmark 40 times with fusion on/off and that time the derivation was lower with fusion enabled.

in this thread there are a few response about ACC but none are clear as AMD is being very secretive about this

ok im alittle confused i fornatted my PC and i installed the drives for my motherboard and i noticed that i have the RAID drive install all so can i just got into the bois and just change it to RAID
thanks patty :). i'll be reading about ACC on the train going home from work tonight :). btw, i don't know if you folks followed the other thread about the amd phenom II and dragon preview event. i got an invitation and i'm going. i can't wait to see phenom II in action. too bad i won't be able to hang out too long. it's a two hours event. i hope there will be freebies :).
Haha, noticed that my CPU was running hot like hell, 78C because the fan was failed. Still stable and i was surfing, dont know was it working when i played GTA4 :D
Pretty good, passive aircooling 3.1GHz! Haha :D
i´ve got some problems with thermal throttleing when i run prime at 3.3ghz and 1.5cpuvid.
i was running prime at 254x13 1.475v+2%acc and got a bluescreen after about 20mins. so i thought i just bump up the voltage and give it another go.
but after setting the cpuvid to 1.5v the mainboard puts down the cpu multi to 7.5 and the vid to 1.05v when i reach temps around 50°C in coretemp.
i disabled the temp monitoring in bios by setting it to "ignored", but it´s still doing this.
how can i get rid of this? or is it a cpu internal protection?
