Just started OCing my RIIIE this week, 980x. At 4.7GHz LinX run I started to get wandering erros in PC probe as shown in the picture. I am currently working my way through the thread lloking for siumilar situations.
Does anyone know what might be causing this problem - what can I adjust to resolve - BIOS 1005
Any assistance is appreciated.
@ x-built-Stan ......to much CPU PLL ! ( 1,88x )
Not over than 1,8v. . Over CPU PLL 1,8v. kills the CPU.:(
The 6core CPU`s run`s better @ CPU PLL 1,55 -1,60v.
And PCIe @ 120 ...Why ?
Just left this club for the classy 3 way club... :shocked:
No, CPU PLL won't kill CPU if kept under 2V and for sure it won't kill it if around 1.88-1.89. It actually helped many to gain stability.Quote:

And, yeah, use updated LinX from Intel 4.5GHz & 5GHz LinX Stable Club. See the GFLOPS rise. ;) And temps BTW.:rolleyes:
@ donmarkoni ....what the best Bios for Bloomfield CPU`s ?
From my experience, CPU-Z specifically causes problems with PC Probe. Only when both programs are run simultaneously.Quote:

@ mahaudi
Try bios 0095 for Bloomfield. Works very well with my 920.
Thanks for the assistance :up: as I wouldn't really know what to recommend to mahaudi, last BIOS'es I used with Bloomfields were 9124 and 0009.Quote:

Thanks for the advice donmarkoni. I'm running a 4.806GHz LinX test now. I have 12GBs of memory so it takes forever. Has anyone noticed the relationship between GFlops in LinX and the QPI PLL voltage. the GFlops in LinX go up as the QPI PLL voltage increases. I recorded ~40 GFlops woth QPI PLL of 1.7v vs ~47GFlops @ 1.8v - w/980X
Also, what are the 0095/0096 bios?
How do you flash it? Try entering BIOS when booting and flashing from there. Works best for me.Quote:

If "error" is small, you will probably pass stress testing, but that's not it, at least does not satisfy me.
CPU PLL 1.65-1.8V voltage range is most useless, so go below it (as you have used range above it).
I don't really understand the question about BIOS'es. Those are latest (0095) and 3rd latest (0096). 1203 is the 2nd latest.
you need ES version of afudosQuote:

Thanks

I saw earlier that someone said EIST is marked as SpeedStep in BIOS. I have always had SpeedStep set to Disabled, but when I look on CPU-Tweaker, it says EIST is still ON. I can disable it through CPU-Tweaker, but what combo of settings in BIOS will actually disable EIST properly?
First, be sure your memory can run stable at those settings (I don't doubt, but just to be sure). I would raise memory voltage to 1.65V no matter.Quote:

Then, I would play with CPU and VTT (QPI/DRAM) if still unstable.
Give it a try and report back. ;)
I would be very careful with dram voltage at 1.65. Anything over 1.65 can damage the memory controllers on the chip and when I set mine for 1.65 I can get spikes over that so be careful and watch for voltage spikes. Just a heads up :wave:Quote:

If this is the case it could help me a great deal. Not that I don't believe you but do you have documentation of this anywhere?:shrug: Thanks GaryQuote:

I plan on keeping the CPU until it burns out or is completely obsolete though, I cant be bothered with buying a new one for a chance of a better overclock / lower volts, nor do I want to downgrade my mobo to sandybridge.
My Corsiar wants 1.65 stock at 1600. I run at 1875 but I am sure I can get a bit more with more vdimm.Quote:

I have 3 dual channel kits specified with 2133 Mhz and 9-9-9-28 timings @ 1.65v, but I think its my CPU that cant handle over 1850 Mhz, nor 4.2 Ghz because of how voltage hungry it is.
Cas 6 at 1600 Mhz is really good though.
Hopefully when Ivy Bridge is released, there will be some nice price cuts on X58 CPUs. If I can ever get a 6 core Gulftown for <£250, then I will, otherwise I'll keep the 920 until 16 nm CPUs are out.
Has anyone managed to get Wake On Lan (WOL) to work on this board?
When turning the computer into sleep mode (S3) it just restarts and turns itself back on straight away.
Attempting it from shut down mode (S5) the computer just doesn't respond.
I have done:
Enabled Wake from S5 (under chipset features)
Enabled Boot from WAN (under chipset features)
Enabled Wake on PCI and PCIE (under power management)
Enabled exactly the same in the device configuration under windows
I am using the WOL under Tomato to send WOL packets but nothing seems to work!
Thank you.
I'm running the OCzs (see signature) which are rated at 1.65v. When I try to set that inthe bios, I get a warning saying that 1.65 will damage my CPU. Does anyone know why? I'm running a 980X - first time out with this chip - usually run a 920 or 930.Quote:

Thank you!
1.65 V is the max recommended voltage to RAM when Vqpi is on default.Quote:

To avoid that Vram comes back to IMC, destroying it, there are protection diodes that block the Vram voltage.
If the difference between Vqpi and Vram is less than 0.47 V, the diodes are closed but over 0.47 V the junction opens and Vram can go to IMC, destroying it.
If you want to use Vram over 1.65 V, the trick is to push Vqpi to mantain Vram>Vqpi difference less than 0.47 V.
Anyone know how to get rog connect via cable to work? I had it working and removed the cable a few days ago now when I try to connect the latop says no connection.
step 1 plus into pc
step 2 plus into laptop
step 3 hit connect button
step 4 open rc tweekIT
am I missing anything?
Following quote is as much documentation you will ever need, and that I ever had on that topic. ;)Quote:

I would try do 5GHz LinX stable, if I had phase change unit (read: money to spend one one :rolleyes: )
Well it wasn't the BIOS with the WOL issue. Both 1102 and 1005 do exactly the same.
Sometimes the WOL works sometimes it doesn't. Appears to be random.
I think it is either an issue with the board/BIOS or something is going wrong at the router level. I will try just connecting a laptop and my computer via a hub to see if it is the router that is distrupting the magic packets.
Any other suggestions would be greately appriciated. :)
BTW I am using an ASUS RT-N16 with Tomato build 54 installed.

I have at last got it to WOL from a cold start (plug the computer into the power socket > WOL from iPhone).
The Solution: Enable ONLY 'Boot from PCI' and 'Wake from S5 state'. Before I had 'Boot from LAN' and it didn't like it.
However, if I shut down the computer using Windows, WOL fails to wake the computer.
So now I have problems with Windows and WOL! If I put the computer into sleep mode, it automatically turns back on! :mad:
PROBLEM SOLVED!!!
It was the ethernet drivers. I uninstalled the latest Intel ones, Windows automatically installed the ethernet drivers and it worked fine.
When I turned the computer off using the Intel drivers, the ethernet indication light went out. Using the stock Windows ones, the indicator light stays orange.
WOL now works perfectly, cold start, shutdown/S5 and sleep S3. The automatic wake from sleep was due to interference from mouse/keyboard. Removing their ability to wake the computer in Device manager fixed it. I am now able to turn my computer on from within my own LAN and over the WAN. I can also remote in using my iPhone over the LAN/WAN using Remotr -very good app by the way.
Strange that the official, latest drivers from Intel disable the WOL ability...
Damn it, Intel...
This piece of silicon won't work at bclk more then 215 Mhz..

Has anyone noticed that their CPU tempertures are not showing up in CPU-Z hardware (V1.17.0 Driver version 135)? Mine did at one time. AThe temp sensors must be fine because all cores show up in Real Temp GT 3.60

1.About the fan controlling , i noticed that all FAN headers are 4pin, my HAF-X's fans and my NH-D14's fans are all 3 pin , so how can i let the motherboard automatically adjust the fan speed according to temps (Q-FAN) ????
Is there a way through bios to change the way the mobo controls the fans (instead of PWM to switch to classic 3pin control process?)
Otherwise the only way is a fan controller or maybe adapters 4pinPWM to 3pin?
2. I also would like to know which bios is the best for i7 OC. I always download the latest official version but if your experience is different ..be my guest :)
:welcome:I'm running BIOS 0095 with a 980X. THe BIOS work very well so far. If you are running a 980X recommend staying away from 1102 (production). I have some issues with it reportingthe CPU temp incorrectly. Production 1005 were good though.Quote:

quad sli is not supported on the R3E as it lacks the second NF200 which is required for sli. see hilbert's article on guru3d:Quote:

Asus-Rampage-III-Extreme Daughter-Board
there is also some discussion on this going on here:

I've asked this three times with no reply.
Can someone verify if CPU-Tweaker misreports EIST?
I have SpeedStep set to disabled in BIOS, but CPU-Tweaker says that it is enabled.
How do you disabled EIST on R3E in BIOS?
I always [disable] cpu turbo power limit, and then go into the cpu configuration and turn off C1E [disable], Cpu TM function [disable]. There is also two more settings i turn off, Intel Speedstep Tech [disable] and Intel turbo mode tech [disable]. The latest cpu-z has issues with this board. Drop back to a older cpu-z and see if that helps.
I'm not talking CPU-Z. As far as I know, it does note report if EIST is on or off.Quote:

I have all of the above settings you mentioned disabled, but CPU-Tweaker still reports EIST is enabled.
Sorry about that , I misread your post about the cpu-tweaker. I was thinking you was asking about the voltage as it is grayed out in cpu-z with the latest on this board. I will download that program and try it on mine.
If you mean the "eist" is checked even after you disable it in the bios. then that is normal as this setting enables you to change multi's in cpu-tweak. As i turned all my settings off in the bios and it holds at the 20x multi no problems showing in cpu-tweak. Even when i load it and it goes to idle it stays locked at 20x.
Thanks for the reply and the research! I suspected it didn't matter. I was worried that something was going on behind the scenes that I could not detect.Quote:

cheers
Does anyone know of software that can be used to dynamically tune the memory on the X58 chip? I used to use nTune on the nForce chips.
Thanks - got it - CPU-tweaker :up:Quote:

My CPU is a stupid CPU :(
1.28v = 3.8 Ghz
1.3375v = 4 Ghz
1.3875v = 4.2 Ghz
(LLC on 100%).
Why cant the thing just die within its warranty period so I can get a better one lol. At least its still working after 2 years.
On my previous UD5, I needed to use 1.45v QPI and 1.4v on the CPU to get stable at 200 BCLK and 4.2 Ghz. The R3E is stable with 1.275v QPI and 1.3875v CPU, plus just 1.59v for Cas 6 ram @ 1600 Mhz.
It should be fine as long as it doesnt go over 85 degrees during gaming. Must skip Ivy bridge and wait for 16nm before upgrading.
So you think running 24/7 on 1.38 volts makes that a bad cpu? What if you happen to kill it and get back a worse cpu then?Quote:

No, I think that running it 24/7 at 1.38v maybe unsafe and it might die because of that much voltage. The max temps are 82 degrees on Core 1, and under 79 on the others after hours of Civ V.Quote:

I am about to start building my new system and I have a question relating to SLI and the recommended configuration. The manual recommends using slot 1 and 3 for SLI, but can I use slot 2 and 4 instead?
The reason is that I am considering an OCZ Revo SSD for slot for the x4 slot and MB will be inverted so my H20 blocks on VC's will not be visible if I have to use slot 1 and 3.
TIA
Put them where you like, take a look here, there is almost no difference between x8 and x16 unless you are using 3 monitors at 120 hz

i'm having stability problems with my 950 , can't get more than 4.3 ghz fullyy stable... what's wrong? :|
Thank you!Quote:

My 950 can't pass 4.3GHz fully stable so i think the problem is the cpu, not MB because the 980x goes like wind on the same RIIIE :/.Quote:
