Resolved with latest BIOS flash. Not sure if this was recently fixed, but Tri-Fire works after the flash.

Well got my 3930k at 4.6 w/o much problem. Any having issues with VCORE?? I believe it is the VRM temp and it really shouldn't hit 81c+ that easily but it does.
CPUVCore is at 1.45, Cpu load line is high, and CPU Current is at 110%
Nothing seems that extream to trip VCORE > 81c.

So the temps, given the small footprint on this symmetrical, quad channel platform for VRM cooling seems about right to me depending upon how you are cooling the VRM/heatsink. These boards will take 200amp loads to VCC before OCP kicks in, the ROG boards higher if the VRM is kept cool.

Anyone know Intels maximum vcore, and vtt for these chips?
1.4v is Vabsolute, 1.52v is max SVID just like SB. Max VTT and VCCSA is 1.4v. Those are absolute ratings listed, but intel lowered max vcore from 1.52v for SB to 1.4v for SBe. IMo don't go over 1.7v, i wouldn't even go over 1.6v at least above ambient. They are all in the datasheet, check em out under electrical specifications.
Thanks Sin!
I am trying to figure out this M4E board today. Just trying for stability and wasnt sure what 24/7 safe was. Ive been lazy the past few months and have done 0 overclocking. Learning this different bios from what I am use to (gigabyte) is making it a little more difficult.
We all have to get used to UEFI, good luck. BTW I wouldn't run over 1.5v for 24/7. Id try to keep it around 1.45v max for 24/7, you'd look around 4.5-4.8ghz that way at least on air/water. i should get out of this thread before i get yelled at by asus, lol i just am bored today.
Just got system loaded and board together last night , love all the tweaks it has for sure its like the old dfi tweaker rejoice dayz . . . nothing to much to talk about at the moment screen shot has high vcore becuase i was trying to prime at 5.0 i haven't made it yet , but im passing at 4.9 at 2133 7 10 7 28 2 . . . 4 x 2 gig sticks
latency not bad but could be better ;)

Testing all kinds of ram so fare like my older gskill the best at 8gig quad setup

my old ek supreme lt block fits excellent , this board has the 1366 hole pattern

VSA 1.2V 1.4V
remember this is intel spec. we are at xtremesystems here, so most won't even care ...
... but you asked
with water-cpu in a case i would suggest a good fan blowing air over the VRM area...Quote:

Worth is a pretty loose term but it is quite fun :)
agreed, I am just bored and I want to play with something new so looks like later next week during the holidays I am going to upgrade.Quote:

well i always wanted 6 cores but from what i've seen 5Ghz is land of 3960X and i cant afford that, 3930X seem nice for 4.7 and 4.8 im not saying this is bad but im runing my 2600K at 5.1 for daily and its hella fastQuote:

Starting to get the hang of this board a little. Running Blend now at 4.5ghz, but not going for any marathon runs. Just trying to get a feel for it.

@ OC Nub
very nice oc, glad to see you around its been a while:up:
batch # on that chip?
looks like a nice one 4.5 at 1.28 and the temps are even better, barely 55c under load:eek:
^ Thank you! It has been a while, I went back to gaming to take a break from this.
Batch is #3133B533
Passed 1hr, will try going up later. http://i43.tinypic.com/dqocj6.jpg

running hypers on it?Quote:
