Bullant there must be lot of humidity in australia, I never get much snow while benching on cold. Sadly I cant get the pci-e issue fixed, pretty sure its the cpu.

Don't know if anyone is currently in the market for one of these boards, but at the moment there is a $20 MIR available from US retailers such as Newegg thru 10/15/14.

Loud its kinda bad luck to have it so. Could it be some gold contact points not getting contact or just faulty CPU. Damn I dont have another one in hand right now.
Luumi if you nearly sure its your CPU maybe buy a pentium to test your theory. Besides pentiums look fun!
Fun to play with for sure. Most of them eat volts unfortunately, this one scaling 4700 1.3V to 5000 1.6V :eek:

nice run bull
Bull question for you, have you ever had a psc kit dont scale with voltage ????
explication, i tested yesturday a 2200 pi kit under LN2, this kit dont like the voltage,because with tight timming, full pot -189, 2.12v 2750mhz, my 32m pass no problem, but if i put 0.1v of more like 2.13 it's "nt exactly in run" in the first loop and it's the same result between 2.13-2.28v :eek:
may be if i play with the dram frequency can help ??? i dont know , on air is a killer kit, one of best i ever had
thx for your help and im so sorry for my bad english :(
Hey mate,yeah every kit will
Have a max scaling voltage,my kits range from 2.15-2.27v the lowest kit I have is the same kit as yours 2200 cl7 max 2.15v
Quite often in my testing if you passed the scaling point of volts it will fail 32m quite quick,it may be the limit of your kit.You also could of had some moisture in the session,just do another session see if there any improvement,can also just play around with ioa-iod-imc volts sometimes lowering ioa and iod volts can let you push dram volts a little more.
Have you tested each dim on air see what max volts on air is,maybe one dim is lot different to the other,so yeah try those few things if it still the same in next session it may be the kits max scaling volts
Does seem little low on volts as most I've tested do 2.15v,seems like nice kit tho
One other thing to try,see if volts improve with little warmer temps ,try -150 or so see if it helps ,won't hurt to try
Your -189 temps are dim temps or pot temps?
Thx you for your fast respond Pro ;) i never tested only one stick on air always in dual it's a killer killer kit on air 2,12v it's very low volt scale
my ioa and iod yesturday play between maybe 1.2 and 1.25 and i use no vaseline or other insulate on my stick :shrug:
the temp is dirctly on the module stick not on the pot like KPC i use the EK pot and i have a hole on the module for that,i have -189 directly on the chip of ram
doyou play with you DRAM Voltage Switching Frequency ??? me is always on 1100mhz
do you can ship a copy of your bios setup for psc in PM please just for reference ??
Thanks you Bullant

voltage and temp please on this amazing kit :up:
What golden kit is that Bullant? 2000cl6 pi I guess.
Hey mate,yep these memory's are Pi 2000 cl6 I have few of these kits that are good as well as 2300 Pi kits
I have 2x kits of Pi 2200 cl7 memory's and these are also very good value,normally a very cheap kit to buy that can also do some nice results on LN2
Pretty much every Pi gskill memory I have tested works good,I believe Z97 OCF is clocking these memory's further then Z87 this is why most memory's are looking good
Great run man!
Too bad running for HOT now so have to use meh samsung

Chip Has running the same exact speed for a little over a year now no degradation :)
Hi,
I'm about to buy my first ASRock board and I'm Looking for some expert advice. Would you guys recommend the Z87M OC Formula or the newer Z97M OC Formula for CPU overclocking? I'm looking to get the maximum possible out of my chip. The VRM and components looks to be weaker on the new Z97M, how much will this affect the CPUs potential?
Will be custom water cooling and deliding G3258/4690K/4790K.
Also whats the likelihood that the Z87M will support Broadwell next year? Any chance ASRock will release a BIOS update to support?
Thanks :)
no idea on broadwell, Id get z87m OCF :)
Nice one Splave :up:
Thanks Splave, I was leaning towards the Z87M, it does seems like the better board for OC and I'm not likely to use SATAe or M.2 anytime soon. Intel Ethernet on the Z87M is also a plus ;)
is there anything that maybe the Z97M does better than the Z87M? Or is the Z87M the better board all around?
Just removed HS from some Gskill Pi 2300 cl8 kit,these are st code ics
In my testing comparing KO to ST code memory's,St memory's not the strongest air memory's but seem to scale quite high volts with ln2.Just prepping OCF now with KP Ney Pro and these memory's to see how they go. :)

Very nice Loud,nice memory clocks :up:
I ended up just retesting low bin Gskill Pi 2200 7-10-10 kit,-155 and kit tops out at 2.16v would be nice if the kit could push more volts

Confirmed now that my pci-e issue is cpu related, tested with G3258. Kinda badluck though since faulty Intel CPUs are very rare nowadays. Otherwise my 4790k seems kinda good. I got myself two kits of 2400 Cl9 Geil Evo TWOs coming next week. I'm looking forward to seeing how they perform and get some ln2 in near future again.
Did some 3D the other night on my GTX580,all test are what cpu and gpu clocks are set at in pics,I believe if I can push the gpu core clocks and gpu memory clocks more 180000 be possible :yepp: :up:
The board was pleasure to bench 3D and nice efficiency

Just ordered the z97 Formula. I have a decent 4790k and have tried out 3 other mobo's so far. Each had its draw backs and hoping this is the "one". Looks like the mobo to have for PSC, which I happen like. Maybe I'll get around to pressing them finally. 2sets of 2000c7 flares and my "big boy toy" 2200c7 pis. I'm comfortable with CPU and 3d, but have yet to fully dive into ram.
How good is the conformal coating? I've done due diligence on a pcmate and would like nothing more than mount a pot o this. Do you guys still grease, eraser, or LET on this?
Hey mate,you'll be pleased with the board it really is very nice to use,Nick has some nice profiles in bios that will help you as well as a 32M bios setting that disables all unwanted stuff and enabling a few things.The board trains memory very well,im sure few of us in here will be happy to help with any questions once you get the board.
The formal coating is very good but I myself still use a little Vaseline on my board just to be safe :up:
be sure to post some pics and results when you get the board
Bull
Slow progress in XTU even without overclocking memory, finally managed to pass 4900. That chip is very touchy above 4800.

Looking good man,seems you have a nice chip Im guessing air or water
Thanks bullant, I'm on water. You're probably the right one to ask, did you ever come across a PI kit not able to match its spec?
I've got a 2200C7 kit here. At 1.65V, all I can get out of it is 2200C8.

Psc
Hey mate my iPhone not loading your pics cant see your timings and sub timings ,ill look at your pic when home incase I notice any timings off,on the matching spec thing I don't normally test PSC at those clocks.Normally I try 2600-2666 cl8-12-8-28 and volts,I can test it for you later on some of my PSC if you like,of the top of my head Sam or Websmile do bit of testing with PSC at spec and mite also be able to give there thoughts .
I have couple Pi 2200 kits that I can also test at spec
Just guessing here as I've never tested spec ,cl7 trcd 10 @1.65v depending on subs may not be that easy for some bin ,just a guess tho as I've never tried spec
its because the RTL on auto will set to tight at CL7 tWCL7 you can see already at CL8 tWCL7 it is 38 39 4 4
Maybe you can play with dram training threshold value to loosen rtl automatically or you can just run 2400 cl8 ;)
Hey aerotrack sorry for late reply,
I finally got around to looking at your pic and yes splave is totally correct,as you can see in your pic rtls are 38-39 already
So what happens when rtls are on auto and you drop down in cl rtls will want come down as well,so whats happening when you set cl7 rtls are wanting to run 36-37 @ 2200Mhz this now puts a little stress on you system as you have nice tight rtls if this makes sense
So for example if you were to train loose rtls say 39-40 or 40-41 @ spec then this would give you more of a chance to boot cl7 and lower volts ,also remember tighter rtls give better efficiency.I also agree with splave about moving up on the Mhz :up:
here is couple of pics
Gskill Pi 2200 running @ 2200Mhz 1.8v ,note the rtls on auto 36-37

Hi guys, I need your help!
my PSC 2666 with CL6 run without problems by SuperPi (DDR 2.20 / VTTDDR 1.034) otherwise only the profile of Nick for MemLN2
Boat with 2750 and 2800 CL6 is also possible, just not SuperPi :(
Timings are from the screen, only available on RTL 36/37/4/4
http://abload.de/thumb/20141020-19535976oc9.png
Can one give a hint of what you still have to adjust to the bar to get stable in SuperPi also about 2666 me?
Thanks Splave, bullant for explaining. I'll increase the clocks then, will post results once I get a grip with that kit :)
Little more :)
