Hey Nick.....I'm share some results in ASORCK Z77OC Formula Event in Thailand 08-09-2012
Quick test....for me and Zolkorn ^^" Try to 7Ghz Soon....
http://upic.me/i/98/220525_438135729...34323740_o.jpg
max Valid @ 6.86Ghz and 6.93Ghz Bule screen x_x....
Why Formula Drive can't adjust Vcore over 1.92V+

I know...it's not that important for you guys, but for casual user it is!
This board is absolutely great for 24/7 users!

Very nice, this board seems to like almost every memory.

I have one of the biggest watercooler and radiator, but it's extremely hot!
I think, I'll take off the hS. Or I must begin with xtreme cooling!
But then I'm not in the enthusiast league anymore :(
My chiller can do -36°C, but don't ask for condensation! :D
Here's my System:

Thanks for the advise, we're having a thread therefore in hwluxx in Germany.
But let's go back to this great board! I'll post some results concerning 5GHz soon!
http://picx.xfastest.com/nickshih/asrock/Z77OCF114v.rar
new beta bios updated . improve memory overclocking ability when mem clock >=2800
Wow... Thx NickQuote:

^wtf? lol
CL5? Wow!
post the cas4 pic nick! :p
CL4 2466 coming ! Psc doesnt scale from lower than Cas8 . i think need to put memory under cold.
http://picx.xfastest.com/nickshih/asrock/cl4.JPG
Dang, haven't seen cas4 air in a long time. Lol
:shocked: A long time indeed! Not since the days of DDR2. :up:
I think it's time for me to set the board on my tech bench and do a few benches...it's been sitting under my desk while I shop around for a decent CPU.
The board looks so good I don't want to get my dirty hands all over it.
I don't think CL4 on DDR3 is real. In 2011 there was a memory competition at HWBot and some guys were entering the CL4 stage with DDR3, so I checked some datasheets and it looks like CL4 isn't supported by DDR3 ICs. ( This was my post back then. )Quote:

Cas4 is wrong for sure ... haha just feel so fun to seeQuote:

Nice to heard it !!! my dram same kit as you :D, so time to update bios again but my kit working well for 2800 4dimm 11-14-14-35-1T, 1.65V !!!
with L1.14U bios :up:
Thx buddy ;)

2856MHz is max ? or it max for IMC my chip IMC wall on air/water at 2920MHz hope i'll can manage it to 2900MHz hyper Pi :)

for 1.14U it won't boot for CL12 well have any new or should be try for 1.14V ?
Edit : same problem for 1.14v still can't boot at CL12 for my kit but CL11 easy
Thx

if u have problem to update bios , please use the bios jumper . and follow the instruction to flash from backup bios .
http://picx.xfastest.com/nickshih/asrock/Z77OCF114Y.rar
Going to LN2 this baby tomorrow :D.
Hopefully get time to LN2 memory too. Stay tuned
Thanks !!! for quick update and well for update method it no problem but after success and reboot it stuck at 0b code for 1.14X
Thx

Coollll 1.14Y CL12 working well now and hope my kit can fly to 2900MHz+ :D
Thx Nick :up:

Not bad at all the new bios!
http://hwbot.org/submission/2313699_...calculate=true
@nick
again a description concerning my booting issue!
When my machine is off, then I must give a vtt1 of 1.085 - then it starts...after the start, I can change the vtt1, directly while booting, to 1.064V!
Maybe the starting voltage is too low when the machine is switched off. When I reset the machine, i have no problems, just when it's switched off. Could you change something in BIOS to have a higher starting voltage with automatically lowering it, after detection of ram?

Bcz first time training is going from default to OC setting . Need the real stable VTT .
second time u can lower down a little bit for sure. but .... i still suggest that u use 1.12 or 1.15 . It is safe ..
http://picx.xfastest.com/nickshih/as...latool0914.rar
Software update .
Formula drive update to 0.2.12
Timing Configurator to 1.0.7 , add lots advanced timings .
Rapid OC to 1.0.15
Also fix the issue of software skin become white when u disabled the windows theme .

^ Congrats on new WR....... 7.136 GHz! :clap::up:
Yep, nice :
http://www.techpowerup.com/img/12-09-14/69a.jpg
This board rocks on ln2,
tested a new CPU and the 06 performance is really good.
8th single card
http://d1ebmxcfh8bf9c.cloudfront.net...id_840577.jpeg
^agreed
http://i.imgur.com/AUBq6.png
and wprime is pretty efficient too:)
http://i.imgur.com/1QHpD.png
this chip has the worst IMC I have ever seen, 23 at 2133+ and the 2000 divider would just 00, but the board performed flawlessly and I have maybe 5 liters left for a quick run tonight:D
Loud that is the "Y" bios. it gave me 00 at any settings. also 23 at some, but never booted for me. Please go back to P or something to get your IMC up again.
Nice results lads !
uncle Nick forgot us for a sample board :p
Dude I was wondering what was up, all was well except memory clocking and I just chalked it up to a bad chip, so the earliest P release is good to go? What about X have you tested it?Quote:

^Nick I am having a small issue, no matter what vcore I set in the bios I only get 1.92v and vdimm is the same except it is locked at 1.725v, not sure why just noticed this.
The bios is the P bios as the newest one was giving issues last night.
Even with the gimped vcore/vdimm issue, I was able to do this. . .
http://i.imgur.com/ls4nE.png
soooo close to 150k on air and I am sure with some more vcore and vdimm it is completely doable

I will try to ask them fix this problem . But 149k is nice score . I will suggest that using 1.14y to bench . Seems the 01 will be higer after enabled the oc tweaker option.
But i dont have the memory voltage issue ....
rock mobo vs rock ram = rock results ! :D
Looking good for mix and match between Z77 OC FORMULA vs AVEXIR 2800C12 16GB yellow LED :)

Impatient to test this motherboard :D
@Nick which bios is better for memory oc 1.15b or 1.4 official ?

When everything is checked , i will put into new P bios for sure
Finally home, ready to bench! have some niiiice psc to try ;)

Still haven't done the mod as memory voltage was good to go with the bios you linked, still vcore is stuck at 1.92v .

just receive this kits today. Apacer 8gb x4 2666 CL12 , Try it on my new bios . And something happened .
Direct boot 2856mhz , 12 14 14 35 . And hyper Pi 32M stable ! World first with 8gbx4 ?

New bios 115D updated . added memory profile . Will add more soon.

This board loves psc ramīs :D

http://i900.photobucket.com/albums/a...ps7a50f129.jpg
^ very nice vdimm?
1,805V in bios , but the real voltage mensured with Fluke 115 multimeter is 1,830V ....
the ~25mv difference remains indifferent what voltage set in bios( 1,5v is 1,530 , 1,650 is 1,675 etc..).. please check and you guys:)

Curios as to why your timing software is better?Quote:

Also black or yellow slots? I have only tested the black slots and everything seems to be working fine:)

New option : Memory Profile in 1.15D
http://picx.xfastest.com/nickshih/as...oryprofile.jpg
hmmm not sure I will have to check haha, the only reason I use it is because it is on the thumbdrive and it doesn't require an installer, just a standalone app.Quote:

I will give it a go tonight Nick, thanks for the prompt response:up:

Memory profile will has on 1.15D Nachtfalke not 1.15B you need for update again check at #280 ;)
about memory slot, on my mind or my experience with IVB cpu i thing it depend by CPU not a motherboardQuote:

some chip of 3770K like inside slot or mean to install with inside will better for OC and some chip like outside slot
then you should be check your CPU what side of slot is better
btw. i can't confirm for this is true or not but it come from i meet it on my tried to OC ram from different CPUs
Cheer.
Not really...?Quote:

nobody ever wonders why performance is so bad with 'TCL 5' here??
I keep mom on stuff , dont like to rain on peoples parade but when you try to call on something i think is more of a moral as to whether to l;ock fake settings or not.
I can set TCL even after training and before windows load but what is the point of Fake TCL?
CAS 2 & 3 lol
So those locked out settings in memtweakit are actually fake is what you are saying? CAS 6 is it then huh?
