The VTT Voltage :D

I think it's high but because you use x4 memory multiplier.:)

Here's to hoping I can get one that's even remotely in the same league as yours eva :D

And I do hope those chips like the cold better than my Q6600, which would do EXACTLY the same clocks at EXACTLY the same Vcore regardless of the coretemps being -20 or +60 :rolleyes:

My 920 coldbugs at about -40, and even -39°C didnt get me 1 more mhz than aircooling did :shrug:

yeah high ram clocks need higher CPU VTT especially in 3d benchies, 2d/pi apps can get away with less volts but it also depends on ram used. Better ram may allow less CPU VTT required from my early tests - won't know more until I get to test other memory configs out with different ram.

Crap... good thing my unit is tuned for high loads and doesn't go below -35 anways. Will have to see about the OCing on phase, it sure should help with high Vcore and Vdimm (as in, prevent the IMC from crapping out :rolleyes: )

Damm nice scores !!!

But did you disable HT to get 4.5 ? what is the max speed you can run with HT on ? And what is the max stable speed on stock volts with HT on ?

Keep up the good work !

see screenshot for cpuz HT enabled would = 8 threads , HT disabled = 4 threads :)

Sounds like a plan to me

will be interesting to see what it does thx

Cool ! That 4.016 @ 1.35v is that prime stable ? or just bensh stable ?

4ghz at 1.328v only 30min prime95 stable due to air cooling/heat limited :)

Still very nice. :)

Hey guys,

just finished with my build an hour ago (DFI x58, i7 920 3838A, 6GB CSX Diablo 2000, custom SS).
My oberservations so far:

1. My CPU just hates the 20x mult, it won't even boot at 4Ghz with it
2. It likes the 19x, so far I am primestable at 220x19 using 1,42V Vcore and EVA's bios template, thanks.
3. Turbo mode doesn't work.. whether I enable or disable it there is no visible effect. Mult doesn't change under load.

So I think I need a new bios to fix that turbo issue... maybe my CPU likes 21 better than 20. Which bios can you recommend?

Are you sure you have enough cooling? I know other Stuttgart products need to run their fans at very high (and noisy) speeds for cooling, especially in traffic.

Lol? WTH are you talking about :confused:
It's -15C outside right now :p:

Anyway flashed to 0106 bios and turbo seems to finally work... back to testing I go

to enable turbo you need to enable EIST too

might want to read http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...&postcount=130 as well

Great work, Eva. Keep it going!
