well it wasnt needed for the oc just experementing. Tho the qpi volt is necessary since i have the uincore this high.Quote:

Got some Crucial ECC-RAM CT3KIT25672BA1067 to go with my X5650, and it seams to be working fine on this MB :)
These sticks are rated as @1066MHz CL7, but seams to be OCing pretty easy to @1400MHz CL7 1.60v. This is no speed-monster, but I'm hoping to get more stability with ECC. Either this CPU or this RAM belongs at home on this MB (I'm waiting for a OC-able double socket MB to hit the marked, hopefully soon), but it is nice to see it working fine for now.
I've just got these sticks, and haven't done any serious testing for finding the limits/potentials yet, but it looks promising already. :)

folks, anyone else having a problem with one or more USB controllers on this board spontaneously disabling and reporting code 43 errors in windows device manager? is this possibly a problem with too low volts on the IOH or something like that? running win 7 x64.
when ocing i usually run with these disabled.
Yoh guys,
right now I am running my memory at command rate 1.
What is the differenz to command rate 2 ?
Yo guys! :) So the soldering is done.. 20k resistor.. It's weird though.. Hicookie said that the default was 15k and if you solder the resistor on it will be 8k.. Not that there's much of a difference but my multimeter is showing 9k? huh.. Hope I did'nt mess something up. I'm going to see how this chip overclocks now under LN2 in a bit.. cheers!!
Finally!! :) first time at 6ghz with HT on!! yay! Thanks Hicookie for the awesome mod! Was testing speeds for an hour or so and ran out of LN2.. I'll run some real stuff tomorrow.. I love this board and the xeon w3680 really works well with it!
Congrats man! makes my poor little 4.5 cry :(
Sup Nugz, long time no see ..... I'll post some pics of my new ghetto w/c for you (rx360 strapped to the front of a portable a/c unit)
lol awesomeQuote:

I think I will give this one a try over the weekend, Thx Stasio!
Btw, here is a pic of my ghetto mod ......... XSPC RX360 Rad mounted to the A/C unit :)

Yo guys.. Thanks so much!! I'm having a hard time getting stable at 6ghz though.. I've been running some cpu tests at over and around 5800mhz but 6ghz is rough.. You think it's this xeon w3680 or my settings? Anyway, Here is a shot I took.. 6 cores with HT on.. Any help would be appreciated!! :)

I was wondering why Hicookies voltage says 1.938? I'm at the max voltage on this board at 1.920..
do you have vdroop turned on?
