im using 1203 with no problems and the re 3 seems a good board
For 24/7 use I prefer 1005. Not the fastest but very stable.Quote:

Weird....:confused:
i'm using 1203 right now... seems alright but still having trouble hitting 2000mhz stable on 6 sticks of memory :shrug:
i was able to get as close as just over 10gigs registering out of 12 but i really don't feel safe doing over 1.78v to ram. i use Dominator GT's in mine and i think with... PC chips? i can't remember off the top of my head. they also have the niffty corsair dual fan cooler ontop so it's not heat i'm worried about, just over voltage.
for right now my daily setup is just a simple 4ghz @ 1.28v and standard (133x30) and with memory at stock 1866mhz but with 7-9-7-24-72 N2 timings.
the highest i've gotten so far is 4.5ghz @ 1.44v and 1900mhz on memory with the same timings and that's been with many different bios versions.
3dmark only reads the cpu on the stock multi 25Quote:

They have room for much more, but with 6 sticks they max out at around 1850 Mhz. I've never tried testing my PC with just 3 dimms installed, I cant really be bothered because installing one module requires removing my CPU cooler.
ok no news for a while but heres one from last year asus claims its the best for ln2 ?!?!?!?!Quote:

I'm sure this has been asked somewhere in this thread before; but I'm thinking about doing an all-air build with a Silverstone RV02 E; and trying out the Noctua D14.
My concern is my RAM; I have 6GB of G-Skill Trident memory, and apparently the D14 gets VERY close to the RAM. I know that the Tridents are too high to sit under the D14, but is it true that only the fan could be in conflict, and if I use the 2nd set of slots for the 3 RAM sticks, I should be fine?
Believe me, it's not new. ;)Quote:

I've already lowered the ram speed as you can see in order not to cut me down from achieving a higher bclk. I've already tested with memtest 3hours and OCCT Large Data set too for 1h30min, all passed, so i think that rams are not the problem (btw my mems are G.Skill Trident 3x2gb 2000). If i switch at 1659@8-8-8-24 2T (again fully stable at memtest/OCCT Large), no difference, same things again.
Any ideas??:confused:
thanks!
@ N.I.C
Are you using the latest Linpack? The version which comes with OCCT is very outdated and may be causing errors unrelated to your overclock.
Download the latest Intel Linpack v10.3.2.005 here. If you prefer to use OCCT, go to its directory and replace old 'linpack_xeon32.exe / linpack_xeon64.exe' with the new one you download.
I actually prefer to use LinX, it's simpler to use and "lightweight"'. So if you choose to use LinX, do the same and copy/replace new linpack.exe you download into LinX directory.
I have 2 R3E's one is rev 1 one if rev 2 any differences between them?
Chil IC . Check the chip that is located above the cpu socket area . Rev 1. writes a code and at the end -20 , rev2. writes just the code .
Rev2. usually bugs under cold .

I tried to raise PLL up to 1.85, seems to help more, but now i cannot pass above 17-20 min LinX/OCCT with a bsod (with 1.32 VTT...And again if i go above ~1.37, i have a bsod at 1-3min). Either I am doing something wrong, or i have a crappy cpu or mobo :(.
Any ideas?
Hello there to all
I am waiting for an i7-970 and i want to know what is the best bios for this cpu.
I am currently use tha latest 1102 official.
Is there anyone that play with i7-970 ?
Thanks in advance.
Have you tired a higher UCLK frequency? Have you tried lowering the CPU PLL voltage (sometimes lowering it to 1.7-1.6 can actually improve stability)?Quote:

The only tool I know that can sometimes nudge you over that wall is the IOH/CPU clock skew. Although this is a very delicate and very time consuming solution and I wouldn't undertake it unless you know what you are doing.
Thought I would link this post over here since it applies to a RIIIE in particular... there seems to be some confusion as to how the PCI Express lanes on this motherboard behave... does anyone have anything to add to this conversation? Anything more definitive is appreciated, thx!
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=266712
I took a look at this post (and the surrounding) but again all that is discussed are multiple _video_ cards in the X16 slots.
Nope, i haven't tried with higher Uncore yet (Dram Freq*2) , i cannot see how this suppose to help, but i'll give it a shot.Quote:

As i remember from my old s775 platform, the skews did help in many cases, but here from what i read, you can face exactly the opposite (much instabillity) using high ioh/cpu skews. I think that it's too early (low bclk, just 206, i see that achieving this bclk is piece of cake on W3520/decent 920) to start messing with skews, but i guess i'll have to start with it.
Another think i need to ask is about the LLC. on 0% calibration, i get much vdroop. To be exact, from 1.3750@BIOS (1.360@real/idle, measured with polymeter) it goes around 1.308@full load. Is that normal? On the other hand, with full calibration, it overvolts quite a bit (1.3750@BIOS-1.381@real/idle-1.383@full load), which, from what i've read, its normal.
50% Calbration is trying to keep the balance between the other two, but i get a lot of spikes on vcore some times.
What you guys use on LLC? full or 50%?
ok fianlly my socket was replaced on r3e and now the board doesnt work at all, finally threwed away that half-product to the garbage, thanks all for help on this thread :D
UCLK was just a long shot, anything below x2 RAM will cause instability, hence why ASUS don't allow those values. It is often recommended that you have the UCLK set to (2x +1) RAM.Quote:
Originally Posted by N.I.C
As for clock skew, I can't really comment on what other people have had, but I was able to pull off any extra 5MHz on the BCLK by using it, but tbh it isn't worth the trouble.
LLC, I did a mini study on it myself when I first got the board, plotted graphs etc in relation to the voltage measurements at different overclocks. I came to the conclusion that in low voltages, it's best to have it at 0% otherwise it overshoots by quite a bit. When you hit medium voltages (1.2-1.3 on my i7 930 for example) 50% worked best. After which Full calibration seemed to work best. If you use Full calibration on voltages below 1.35V then you will most likely see a negative impact. Regardless of what voltage you use, Full calibration always props it up a notch more, even if it is marginal; this is to guarantee no vDroop.
Has anyone here tried running two Sata III SSD's on the Marvel controller?
Can they be raided? I want Raid 0 Crucial C300s :(
Hmm, i knew that for UCLK, you suppose to have DRAM Freq*2 in order to be stable (and you can raise it later), but Dram Freq*2+1 , this something new, thanks for the heads up :up:.Quote:
Originally Posted by NathObeaN

I use 1.38250@BIOS which goes around 1.377@real/idle 1.345@full load with 50%, which is close to Intel's max safe ( i think 1.3750 is the safe max). I want to see what bclk can get with this vcore first, and then i'll pump it. And that's why i asked about LLC. If i turn it to Full Calibration, i get 1.387@ full load, which is way too much for a Xeon for this bclk, as i saw in different threads. Maybe after all, i just bumped on a "banana" Xeon :shrug:.
New stable ram frequency :)

Has anyone had any issues running 3x4GB Corsair Vengeance modules with the R3E?
i have no problems with this RAMs
I so wish I could get my ram up to 2000 Mhz, but it starts failing around 1950 Mhz :(
These modules might be better:

If I try either of the cards in pcie slot 2, 3 or 4, they are recognized fine. Here is the kicker, I inserted a different pcie graphics (low end ATI) card into pcie slot 1 and it works fine.
The setup with the 480gtx graphics cards was working a few weeks ago, then I had a cpu waterblock issue and had to take everything apart to find what the cause of the overheating issue was. I replaced the cpu waterblock and put the waterblocks back onto my graphics cards, put it all back together and get the situation I described above. When I boot off the one graphics card, I only see the one 480 gtx in Device Manager. When it was working a few weeks ago, I did not have the molex connectors by the pcie slots connected.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
Another problem - speedstep don't work.
No OC, all setting auto - don't work..
Bios 0095.
Anybody have same issue?
Hey guys, can anyone tell me if I need to have both EZ_Plug 1 AND 2 plugged in for SLI GTX-580s and a RevoDrive X2? Will it damage the board if I have them both plugged in or if I DO NOT have them both in?
I currently have both 4 pin molex's plugged in along with both 4 pin CPU and the 24 pin using an AX1200. I just want to be sure I won't damage the RevoDrive or the GTX580s by giving them either too much or too little power.
No. 0095 working fine for me, dropping multi to 12 when idle. ReFlash BIOS, clear CMOS, etc...Quote:

No problems on my end, have 24gb vengenace modules running in my R3E with 970. Haven't started overclocking (which I know will probably be a challenge with so much ram).Quote:

I updated bios with these ...
My computer stopped booting the raid ...
these bios guess we're in trouble ...
I'm sorry for the trouble but there is a 64k limitation with the intel rom and bios and I was unaware.
Not a serious problem just flash back to older bios. It's only not recognizing the controller nothing is wrong.
Hi!
I have a problem with my Rampage 3 Extreme now.
To get it to post, i have to reset the bios, then it posts, if i as much as just enter the bios, save the settings, maybe change the full logo post to none save and exit, it will not post again before i reset the bios.
It have been running fine for about 4-5 months now.
Via ROC and the leds on the board it hangs at CPU Init.
Any suggestions?
How do all of your power supply rails look and what power do you have? How is your cooling?Quote:

Not sure how i could look at the rails when it's not posting...
That is a good power supply but even good ones go bad. I would first start at checking the rails in the bios and then measuring them at the molex with a mutimeter.Quote:

Made it to 4.46GHz 212x21 so far. I'm absolutely loving this board! 4.5GHz LinX Club here I come :D
Hopefully, I will have this up and flying this weekend.

I've tested the GFX card in another computer, but no other socket 1366 boards/cpu's to test with.
But other PSU? ;)Quote:

Installed the EK-FC R3E and leak tested, looks good so far. The block is quite a restriction it seems (either that or its dumping a bit of heat into the loop) as my idle temps have increased from what they were with just the CPU and VGA in the loop in the previous setup. Load temps aren't too different though.
I'm running 0901 BIOS as that's what it shipped with, will have to read up on what's going on with them at this stage. Also have some things to discover and play around with like PMW freq, currently set it to 500KHz, but even at that level its allowing my CPU to run stable at lower vcore than the R2E. First impressions are I like it.
Some pics of getting it ready:
Prepping the board:

This kind of shocked me. There appeared to be grass and debris on the stock thermal pad! It's also a hack job in terms of pad cutting precision. Nice QC asus.

Now I'm ready to do the loop :D

Mosfets make lots of heat! You now have that heat load as well as your NB + SB heat in your loop! :yepp:Quote:

Do you have any clearance issue with the EK-FB-RE3 and your first PCIE x16 slot lock? Mine is very tight.
