240x10,5-2520mhz - @1,8 1,8 3,1 52222-13-15 - 3h 1 min fail PRIME 95

YGPM. :D
hey it worth it to switch my mcw159 NB cooler for a w/c NB and put the MCX on the SB?
what kind of Vdd volts are you using?
i would say no personally, but i would defiently get a better then stock SB cooler.
so get this, im checking for volts under load at prime, as im still having trouble breaking 2700 stable ever since my vdimm mod, and my FSP-530 was at 11.95, so, i adjust it to 12.3...
at the same time i re-arrange all my sinks on the board...
anyways, i boot up, and i check volt status in bios, the mobo finnaly read 12v in monitor (usually was at 11.5 lol) and i notice one wierd thing, my vdimm was reading as the actual bios setting, not plus .1 like usuall... i had seen this before, it seems completly random whether the board works my vdimm mod or not...
anyways, i set it to 260x10.5, my previous max after my mods, and no boot, so 200x10, no boot... i decide to change everything to auto just to get into windows, and no boot, i hold ins to try and get into bios like i usually do and no boot, i clear cmos, no boot etc etc etc...
so i dunno, maybe its dead?

stealth17 - if your target FSB is not over 250Mhz, then probably nope. I managed 250Mhz memtest and 242Mhz benchable (11-2-2-2-2-9-12-0-0-3-3-2-0-3-E-E-F-E) with 2x512MB hi-performance mushkins and just stock cooling :D

@tictac
whats that for?
@ everyone else
running max like 2.5 or 2.6vdd....trying to get as high as possible FSB. when i get over 260, its not ram limiting me, its board/chipsets....
High fsb and Audigy out sound output>
ACPI installed is better( not sound problem) than standart pc but you will not run so high with fsb like ACPI+APIC disabled.
ive found at low vdd's i get hard drive corruption at high FSB, stable or not, the issues go away with more voltage, lost two installs of windows figuring that out lol...
anyways, strangest thing, today i boot while holding ins, no go... clear cmos again, no go, im getting ready to pull the board and run it in open, and i say whatever one more go, i boot holding ins and bam, im up, but guess what, cmos wasnt clear!?
man thats a strange one, anyways, now its prime stable @250x10, not what i was hoping for, but at least i can break 250 fdb again, going for more now, i set my Vdimm so i can get up to 3.55 now, so weeee....
ok now you want wierd, i set my vdimm up like 3.0=3.3, 3.1=3.4 etc...
so i cant get it to boot at 260 without setting it to 3.3 in bios (like 3.56 bios readout)
so even then its not stable so im thinking my Vdimm mod wasnt working, so i and say what the hey ill run memtest, first pass of memtest 5, 18,000 errors...
2nd pass, no error
3rd pass, no error
4th pass, no error...
this BH-5 is only a month old but has anyone ever heard of something like this? maybe like some new crazy burn-in to high voltae that i didnt know about....
ok so yet another update, im thinking its my modding skills at fault here, seems like the voltage is coming and going at random, therefore it passes/failes at random, guess ive got more work to do....
are you using a USB keyboard? They dont work so well for the hold insert trick.
no sir...
again an odd thing happened, it seems to be working, tested at 270x5 just fine, 250x10 is different though, needs more on the vcore i think, only using 1.8 now....
man this is one of the quirkiest boards ever heh..
so it does 270x10 memtest with 2 errors a pass at 3.55v, so i shut down and turn it up to 3.6v, and it freezes during test, so i figure board cant hang, so i turn voltage back down to 3.55 and 270x10 freezes during memtest again, then 265x10 (something i ran stable for 20 passes on test 5) cant even boot up into memtest anymore... ive hit this thing like this seems every night lol, and it also seems that every morning the problem magically dissapears...
lets keep our fingers crossed lol...
edit - it also doesnt seem like my CPU likes high speeds anymore, before my mods i could do 2800 stable easy, now 2.7 stable is really hard work...

You won't believe it, but that's exactly what I was telling peeps before... the boards seem to have a day's shape (can you call it like that?!) - one day they feel great allowing for great ocs, next morning every tiny positive bit of the former day is forgotten. The board has its migraine :rotf:
yeah its funny, sometimes itll let me boot 270 memtest stable and others i cant even get 260 going right at all...craziest thing ever...
YEH!!! i was wondering if i was going crazy a few times! man it pisses me off when it pulls that :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana:!
Hope these times are over when I get the nf4 ;) :D
im actually thinking about pulling the mods and just keeping this at its stock OC until i get a better rig setup, sure 10x265 is fast and stable when i ca boot it, other times i end up with 200x8 lol...
i think id prefer the 255x11 i had at one point, i had the same superpi time as my cpu magically clocked higher before my modding, anyways, it was still a worthy project for me, learned much about modding and such... :)
might be related to the vdimm issue I experienced with my infinity where it was running 3.5v all on its own.. rebooted a couple times and it was normal?? Maybe it happens to other components also..
Dont know if anyone remembers that thread.. ;)
Are you referring to the bios/battery issue?? :DQuote:
