Yup...nice kit. Ran them on the RE III @ 2200 8 8 8 24 no probs. They currently sit in my home rig eVGA 759 Classy 2000 and change @ 7 7 7 20. Thats a much better price than when I bought them. Go for it!!!Quote:

I managed a stable 222 BCLK by increasing the pcie to 103 and increased the ioh and ich voltages.
I tested Bad Company 2, Crysis, 3dmark06, And Heaven Benchmark. And all run fine except for micro stuttering in the heaven benchmark while msi afterburner is enabled. :(

Hey guys ...
Just received my Rampage III's and a i7 950 Cpu today :)
I tested the cpu and has a very nice low vid 1.15V only.. Hope this one can clock well for low volts :shrug:

Urgent help needed: i'm running windows 7 x64, bios 1102 and i can't recover from sleep mode. When i put my computer to sleep, it goes to sleep - no prob with that. But when i try to wake it, it powers on (everything seems to be rnning ok) but there is no signal comming from the vodeo card to the monitor (power diode is blinkig as in sleep mode). I have to manually power it off, then turn it back on again. then the message "resuming windows" appears as if resuming from sleep. It's really frustrating. I've tried playing around with different biod setting but so far nothing worked for me. I have all cpu power saving features disabled. Any ideas? Any help will be much appreciated
Any ideas why my cpu qled indicator is turned on? I just changed my 980x from an msi xpower to my new rampage extreme 3 and the Qled is marking cpu....any help would be greatly appreciated.....all my rig is completed and does not boot, doesnt show display doesnt do anything...the cpu was fully functional i don't know why is marking that component... Thanks
I think 3013A472 is good batch.:up:Quote:

Concerning raw speed it needs less vCore then 970 but more then W3540 for 24/7 use (Folding@home). For benching it needs lowest voltages I ever seen, but I still didn't test it much, so I'll see how it scales.Quote:

Thanks! :up: I bought it as "a good batch" and it does "feel" good. Passed 3DM06 @ 4.6GHZ 1.4V vCore w/ HT ON, but failed CPU test in Vantage. It was after less then hour of testing, so I hope to see some even better results on water when I get to know it better. Now testing some 24/7 settings, but will be benching for the weekend, probably in the cold of the night.Quote:

Hmm. Whats the proper way to test the VID on the 980x? Set everything on auto, and put cpu under load with prime and then read voltages? 4000mhz Uncore seems like a target I need to reach.
New 24/7 clocks. I must say this chip + board is a great combination.

AFAIK, there is no default VID for i7 CPU's, cause Intel never provided/written a register to read VID. You can check in Real Temp thread thread, there was a discussion about it and unclewebb explained it. IIRC, 1.15V is default w/o turbo mode, and 1.25V is default with turbo mode.Quote:

I'm interrested by your settings for the 980X in 24/7 (when it's done ;))
Just for comparison sake here's some memory benchmarks at 1066MHz (ALL stock), 4.21GHz @1600MHz, and 4.21GHz @2000MHz
Starting from top left, going down:
2.67GHz @1066MHz 8-8-8-20-1N
4.21GHz @1600MHz 6-6-6-18-1N
4.21GHz @2000MHz 7-7-7-20-1N
4.21GHz @2000MHz 8-8-8-24-1N
4.21GHz @2000MHz 7-8-7-20-1N
http://hostthenpost.com/uploads/aba9...6c6129675b.png
Well, I did saw a big difference, at least between my two chips. I guess it should be that way, cause 980X IS top of the line. :up:Quote:

As I said back at i4memory, very interesting to see 8-8-8-24 being faster then 7-8-7-20. :cool:Quote:

Yea the results are interesting and enlightening to say the least. I'm actually interested to see how your new memory kit at 2250MHz+ will compare to the rest :yepp:Quote:

Just recently upgraded from my trusty q6600 and an old 780i mobo, I have to say I love this board already,
Only third time to boot since install and the 930 fires right up to a 4.5Ghz clock and stayed there solid for best part of the day.
Later while exploring the bios I accidentally rebooted to a 4.7Ghz clock :eek: no wonder it felt snappy, neither cooling or vcore or any other v! was not ready for that so fixed it quick.
Cooling wasn't tuned for 4.5 / LinX heat either. Fairly soon after 100% LinX load at anything above 4.2 with 1.35v cpu & 1.4 QPI or above the cooling collapsed and the test aborted,
need to work on getting more gas.

Just asking around if anyone here using the i7 980X batch 3020A476 with this board here. Want to know how this batch perform. thank you.
before:D
after:D:ROTF::rofl:
nice :P what did you change besides more vcore?
I could use some advice plz ppl !
over the w/e I was having trouble booting, the post cycle would start in the normal way but just as the system was counting the ram it would stop and a second or 2 later try again, it did this some time back but fixed itself so I didnt really worry about it.
so the obvious thing to do was try different ram, no joy, so then I tried to figure why the primary psu was dropping out, couldnt see anything obvious so I changed it with a spare, still the same, also switched off all pci lanes apart from lane 1, no dice.
now with everything back the way it was I have a complete non start, all the leds sitting there ready but no fans, no psu fan, no post nothing at all, I can jump start both psus no problem by bridging the 2 pins.
luckily I held onto my RE2 so Im building that back in for now and I guess Ill have to RMA.
has anyone experienced similar post issues to this b4 ?
cheers guys

have you tried a higher IOH voltage (1.15 - 1.25v)?
i need ~1.22 - 1.25v for stable 228MHz BCLK.
Edit: this was @ ~1.2v IOH and ~1.4v QPI

I thought the website would be a good place to go for drivers, but it will not even load on Linux with Firefox or Chrome, in windows it wants me to install an Akamai downloader (which is not going to happen). I never would have thought that a company could have such a slow and down right crappy site! If you did not know the products you'd think it was a fly by night company.
The download FTP site on the first page has an incomplete list of drivers.
Just makes me sick,

The website works flawlessly and fast for me w/ Firefox. And if you don't to use a download manager then select the other download link instead. They offer both.Quote:

I am pretty sure they will drop to x8. Although I have my doubts that will make any noticable difference in performance. One of my GTX460s is pooched and runs @ x4 and I causes me no grief.Quote:

The setup is:
mobo: Asus Rampage III Extreme (duh!)
cpu: i7 980x
ram: "CORSAIR 12GB DDR3 XMS3 INTEL I7 9XX PC12800 1600MHZ (6X2GB)"
So basically what i've done was i tried the standard modes in Rampage III bios, "Crazy 4.00" and "Crazy 4.20" and they booted and worked quite alright.
(Bear in mind that i haven't done any hardcore stability tests, just a fast test in the program we are using).
So i went into the bios and was thinking that i should try to tweak the setup a bit, as i absolutely not would like to hurt the cpu in any way.
So what i've done is that i resetted the bios, then i've made myself a small setup that im running now that looks like this:
CPU Frequency: 4200MHz
DRAM Frequency: 1503MHz
CPU Ratio setting (mutliplier eh?): 28
BCLK Frequency: 150
CPU Voltage: auto
CPU PLL voltage: 1.45 (standard was around 1.8 which seemed very high, and i read some on in this thread were people recommended to lower it a bit.
QPI/DRAM Core Voltage: Auto
DRAM Bus Voltage 1.6
These are the values that i've changed. (of course the auto values are standard).
What do you guys think? Would you like to see something more? How could i try to tweak my system even more, without risking anything? I haven't looked anything at memory timings etc, and i don't know if its necessary, worth etc.
And by the way, what kind of stability tests are there that i should run? As i said, long time ago i did this..
edit: Downloaded a pi-program from the forums, "y-cruncher" , when i run it the cpu goes to ~84 degrees celcius quite damn fast. I don't think this seems to be healthy at all, agreed? I run the standard cpu-fan.
edit2: LinX seems to be another good test, but i don't feel like running it if i hit these high temps!?
