Hey Primoz

Reset the CMOS a million times. Take out the ram and try putting just one stick in the upper orange slot. Do what it takes! Good luck.

I have RDC from work...and I left it burn-in as usual...at voltages and speed as in my signature...Tried RDC without respond and have called home...and even pushing the power button nothing happend...

But now it is ok...took the power off and restart after a while...I think it was the PSU that overheated...but on monday I will get an Tagan 580W-U15...hope it solve some of my problems with VCORE swinging....

Thx for your support guys :toast:

Well I wish you luck. Next time when you are bruning in dont mess with it. What do you burn in with? If you use cpuburn make sure you disable error checking. GL!

wow dood gratz on a faulty glitch, that woulda sucked had something really good gone up on ya
heres to a good x2 :P :toast:
I guess ima just have to be content with 2.5 with 1.35 because she isnt gonna give me a lick more I guess.
Once a newer bios comes out for this asrock then maybe ill go further but until then im gonna sit and game here for the time being.

Mhm...I use Burn-in but in most case I use SP2004 ;). A question about Tagan 580-U15...does it really have only 30A on 5V and 26A on 3,3V?...cause My 480W Tagan has 42A on 5V and 28A on 3,3V...I think is strange... :confused:

Thx njkid

I just found out I have a toledo core with 512 cache disabled on my core makin it a manchester :(
I wonder what it was to make them disable the 512?
like maybe a 4000 or a 4800? whats the deal here?
Now ima have to start doin research into this, I want the extra 512 per core enabled now..
wow 3ghz on 1.6
I would die for that
dual prime stable? on small ffts?

Can I get a 64tweaker ss of that?

Uff...awsooom... :eek2: I will be very hapy to reach 2,75ghz or 2,8ghz at 1,65V...but unfortunatelly it is not possible for me...nice chip dude :clap: !

my chip suddenly starts to EAT voltage at 2.8ghz. 2.7ghz runs with 1.36v no problemo, 2.8ghz needs 1.48v or something mad. I'll have to burn it in hard, and see if that helps at all. Temps go through the roof at above 1.45v as well.

yeah don_v. temps definitely go way up for some reason above 1.36volts..

also.. is that 3ghz stable? or just a SS? either way thats really nice.. i had mine @ 2.96ghz @ 1.75V (im on water) but that voltage is just too high for me to be comfortable.

Nah it's just a screenshot. I'm working on bringing stability up. I figure if i can get a ss at 3050, then after some tweaking i can get it stable at 2.9 Ghz or maybe 2.95 GHz. I really don't want to go over 1.6 volts because temps really increase with X2s, and the PWMIC starts to really heat up as well. Plus, unlike venices, it seems to be that X2s like to go further on less volts. Which makes sense because they seem to start out with less, mine autodetected to 1.26 volts.
10-07-2005, 11:07 AM
don_vercetti

same as mine, and i can reach 2.5ghz on that. I'm burning in to go higher!

I REALLY want to reach 3ghz stable, i know i can and i don't care how long it takes, as long as nothing dies in the process then it'll be worth every hour it takes.

Now this might seem a silly question but how do you make it run a instance of super on each core?

I've read this thread from page 1 but havn't seen how to do that maybe I missed it.

I have set prime up for each core but I tried super pi and couldn't do it.

Cheers.

You will need to set it up just like prime in sep folders. Now for some reason even when I edit the shortcut it doesnt work so the fix is go into the taskmanager and set the affinity there for each instance.

Think I must be tired just opened prime up then went into task manager looked at the tabs can't find anything to set the affinity.

I am slow on the uptake with things it took me ages last night to get dual prime going even with the screenshots, I couldn't see the colon after the EXE must have tried it for ages it didn't seem very clear on my monitor.

If you could explain like to someone who hasn't ever done it before then I might grasp it, that's if you get time of course.
Cheers.

Well you want to go into the processes and find prime or super pi and right click on it and choose set affinity. Do one intstance for 0 core and one for 1 core. I hope this helps.

Another quick question, I have tried running both and it always fails non convergent in SQR as I remember yet it has been running prime for roughly 10 hours perfectly OK, does this mean that it's unstable and I'll have to reduce the overclock?

That sounds like its a ram problem.. What are you using and at what timings?

I have both of mine in seperate folders and set the sffinity in task man..
but for some reason when i run em both only one gotes to 100% other hangs around 30ish.. why is this?

nvm guess they cant both be at 100% in blend?
If i set em to small ffts they both go to 100% in blend one takes over, I guess because only one would have access to ram?
I really am green at this x2 stuff but am learning I guess.
so far 2.5 at 1.35

It looks like your unstable. When I oc'd to much ran ran 2x super pi one of the cores (usually 0) would freez up and I would have to endtask or reboot.
