ehhh ca va BOB! :D :toast:
good to have you on this thread as well hehehe
thanks for the info
how well does your blitz clock?
did you test a p5k3 so far?
thanks a lot for the dump for roger btw :toast:
olli, what was the max of your blitz again?
eva2000:
LE82P35
SlA9R
L715A337
490 FSB max/1960 DDR max?
boblemagnifique:
LE82P35
SLA9R
L716A390
Fr3ak:
LE82P35
SLA9R
L717A231
435 FSB max/1750 DDR max?
Yeah same voltages as well as the optimal voltages to reach max FSB... the P5K3 Deluxe is clearly better for FSBQuote:

I test the Corsair 1800 c7 for the moment , i can benchs spi 1mo at 1890 c7/8/9 DDR3 max (and 1900/1910 with Cellshock 1800 c7/8/9)
I test with the Supertalent 1866 on single , the max screen is 1070mhz cas 9
(max benchs spi 1mo 1960/1980 on dual cas 8/9)
i dont think the p5k3 is generally better than the blitz, i think its just some p35 nbs sucking...Quote:

good boards can reach 2000 stable, and the worst i saw so far can only do around 1700 stable.
they are assembled in china, but the pcbs are made in china and taiwan.Quote:

what boards do you have eva freak and bob? made in china or made in taiwan?

VMem 2.2v, VMch 1.95v, Vpll 1.90
My Blitz Extreme Max FSB stable the E6850:
- Air - 540Mhz
- Mini-cascade - 595Mhz (just a bit less than Formula that did 605)
The Cellshocks DDR3 black sticks cost me a fortune, but they are real good .. in the next day I will test with 2 stock 2900XT in CF to check how much can improve my favorite game...
BTW : nice posts on this thread :up:
At last! P5K3, BIOS set vdimm 1.9v, vmch 1.55v and look at that poor CPU lol - that's the best "stable" FSB I can get at 8x, tho I can get 475x6. Great pair of sticks though, fulifilling a bit of that early potential :D
http://valid.x86-secret.com/show_oc.php?id=260706
these are my results...
it can go 2000 though, but i will adjust it better, and post results later..
but its Sweeeet mems :)
vDIMM 2.08v.

And one 1M result with ddr2000, but it wouldnt go for 32m yet, need to adjust more.. 2.28v is this..
Http://hem.bredband.net/infan/cellshock/ddr2000.jpg
Nice Infa :toast:
I just ran a 32m at the same settings as my 1m, no probs. If I could get a higher FSB, I'd like to try 2000 - maybe my Q6600 will get there.
Thank you :) finally im in the game, been waiting a while for my stuff :)
yeh, you gotta have atleast 500fsb for the ddr2000 to work though...
best luck! hope it will work for you, now i will try to get my 32m ddr2000 to work..
regards.
A prettier picture (still can't get more FSB with this chip, hit a wall) -
Hmm, i just CANT get em to work ddr2000, nomather what i do, really..
i dont want to pump more than 2.3 either, but they should work with that atleast, not even cl 8, sure i got 2.06v now and typing this, and cl 8, and thats working better than more voltage, but its dead before first irretation at super pi, wont work! tried every setting...hmm.. annoying.
regards.
guys just buy X38 chipsets and you will be able to get that extra little bit and even tighten the timings somewhat :D
well i got it, and it wont work, now i will push the Vdimm a bit higher to see if thats the prob, will go over 2.3 a while, hope they not will die on my, they were expensive, BUT I WANNA KNOW DAMMIT :P i want a 32m ddr2000, then im happy, i dont want it 24/7 couse my setting at 930 7-6-5-18 and 4.1ghz ARE FAST!, i just want that magic ddr2000 :P, any tip on a sucessful settinf for ddr2000?
Hmm, what can be wrong? Im at 2.32v now, still same not exact on round, aswell as in 2.24, it cant be the voltage?? i did test with memtest for a few mins and not a single error, but super pi, just goes to bed?
something cant handle this, the board? some setting ive missed?
idd. My P5K3 seems to be the limiting factor - 462 FSB with my Q6600 as it turns out, pretty much the same FSB as the E2140. Infa m8, don't burn 'em, they don't like much over 2.1v afaik.Quote:

Noo, ive come to the conclusion that i think its my bios, its just the third out for the p5e3, it just got the Damper enabled, sooo, the errors thats happening, it just dont feels like its the rams faults in some way.......i do put it atleast bios stable CL 7-7-7-20 2000mhz 2.18, and its rock solid in memtest, noo error, but still almost allways, BSOD when loading win, or BSOD in win, or mostly NOT EXACT IN ROUND, but still error free in memtest? whats up whit that? isnt memtest suppose to be a testprogram, so if it goes error free, then the comp will be stable?
ahh well, now im at 1827mhz, 4.1ghz and 7-6-5-17, and Transaction at 3, strap at 266, Twister at strong, and only at 1.96v, but att fsb 500 and ddr2000 it just goes crap?
ahhh i hope for the next bios might be a sunshine :) , now ive been trying for 2days in a row all eveing, and it wont goo, so i'll give it up until next release.
im satisfied anyhow hehe....goin such low Cl below rated is fair enough at this speed... seems p5k series got more mature bios, couse i dont see anyone hitting 2000 with p5e3 and cellshock yet?
atleast i got to play with all the settings in p5e3 deluxe :)
just gotta get this with AI clock twister, and exactly more what it does for the mem...and how.
regards.
thanks a lot pedro :toast:
that compliment from you really means a lot to me :)
Infa, dont use that much vdimm!
you dont nearly need that much for 2ghz cas8!
1.9-2v is enough to get 2ghz stable for most kits, if it doesnt run stable at that speed then its most likely the chipset limiting and not the memory.
if memtest passes and windows doesnt then its most likely the chipset begging for more volts and not being able to keep up. what chipset voltage are you running?Quote:

tried a lower multi or memory divider?
it can also be the mem, but in most cases in my experience its the chipset. so switch the sticks around, try different slots and try stick1 closer to the cpu and then stick2, this can make a huge difference on some boards.
hitting 2k is mostly limited by the chipset, not the memory in my experience. the same mem that can do only 1900 876 with 1.8v on one p5k3 we have here can do 1985 876 with 1.8v on another one... same settings... and its not onle one kit that behaves like that, all do so far.Quote:

about hitting 2k on the p5e3, ask pt1t :D

Beware that NOT ALL P35 can get them ABOVE 2000MHz......It's chipset related and not rams..... ;)Quote:

Hi George,
so you made the same experience...
Did more vmch help?
Did you think about changing the nb already? :D
If anybody can do it its you :D
Our guys here told me they can remove the chipset easily, but soldering back is something they dont even want to try :D
i wonder if a p35 could work on an x38 mainboard.... and if it would still be 16x 16x :D
But i dont think so... if intel wouldnt lock it then im sure some asian mb mfg would already have made a p35 where we can unlock something to have 16x 16x
Hey saaya, have you tried the 0704 BIOS on the P5K3 yet? I want to know if it helps der WunderCellShocks :)
Saaya, thanks for you answer, Im feeling a little better now that ur saying this :)
Yes my cpu can handle 510fsb in another MB.
Dunno if the board can handle it, but its an all new x38, it should really take 500fsb atleast..i think, but you'll never know...
i've tried max 1.91 vNB, didnt help, sweetspot for an error free memtest at CL7 2000mhz, was 2.18v.. but it was a no goo, i really cant get it to even do a Super-pi 1MB, load windows i can get it to do, but it crashes easy..
no i dont use that high vDimm , just wanna try if it was that, but now i know that it isnt, maybe i got a bad board? gaah..cant afford to buy a new just to take a chance that its better..
no i havent tried lower, couse im looking for a high cpu speed, aswell as high mem, so im not interested if it goes ddr2000 at 3.6, when i can use 4.1ghz :)
Im running them in the black slots, tried the orange, but that was noticible worse.. so Dual channel in the black ones i do..
Maybe its the bios? perhaps i should try to work it with an older bios, 301 or 402.. i really hope its the bios...
so 9x456 ddr 1827 7-6-5-16 goes fine at 1.96-2.00v... ahh well... maybe i can sell it to someone and get another one....its not broken so i cant return it..
really a bummer, so close :)
and another thing, i dont have That express thing on my boad, not even physically ON the board... thought all p5e3 deluxe came with that? really strange, its a Rev 1.03G board.
regards.
I got the 0704 beta 2 months ago or so, i didnt have time to use it but passed it on to 2 people and both said they didnt see a difference.Quote:

The problems really do depend on the chipset im 99% sure about that.
I just talked to a reviewer who tried 4 or 5 boards, p35 and x38 from different manufacturers and the max memclocks are all over the place. some nbs clock well some dont, it seems to be the same for p35 as for x38, only that x38 for some reason needs slightly less vmch to get high mem clocks and doesnt boot with more than 1.55v chipset voltage more or less... I think intel bound vmch to some other voltage for the x38 chipset so it scales better with less volts but doesnt like high volts.
well... i suspect x38 and p35 to be identical in that regard as well, with p35 the ddr3 boards seem to clock fsbs around 20mhz worse than their ddr2 counterparts. So i suspect x38 will not clock that well fsb wise, but not much worse, 20mhz maybe 30mhz in a bad case.Quote:

sucks... well i recommend everybody the same thing, if you want to go ddr3 buy 3 boards, keep the best, and sell the other two on forums or ebay for less than the retail price. you will lose some money on each board but in the end youll have a really good board and buying 3 p5k3s and selling 2 with a loss of 50 euros each means you spent the same or less as buying a maximus formula.Quote:

try less and work your way up slowly.Quote:

dont think that makes a difference... : /Quote:

you have 16x16 atm, so unless you plan to run tripple xifre as soon as its out theres no need for that chip anyways :)
Hmm, you say that X38 dont like high volts, actually i havent tried 1.55, to see if it is that im using to HIGH vMCH? If it is like that with the dimm, why not NB?
No, i can get it stable higher, but as i said :) im looking for high cpu speed..so im allways using the 1:2 Divider which is the highest divider..
And i am using a 6850...so its a 1333fsb cpu :)
i will try lower volts in the MB settings overall and see how it works.
I got a fan blowing on the mems aswell as NB, it never rises above 35c, think thats low enough :)
And no i didnt mean pci-e , i ment the "splashtop" thing, on the board there are supposed to be a "usb" between the Pci-e..i dont got that, its not even in the bios either.
Tried all Straps, 200 no boot, and on every other one, it boots and behaves the same, 266,333,400,auto.
No, more vdimm helps to a certain point..then it doesnt help anymore, and like i said before, maybe im using to high vMCH? i never go below 1.60.
i WILL get it to work..hehe..the damn board aint gonna win before ive tried ALL.
well i dont know what the default nb voltage for x38 is, for p35 its 1.25v afaik, on x38 gigabyte +0.375 seems to bee too much and +0.300v seems to work. and on asus boards a few people said the sweet spot is between 1.5 and 1.55v.Quote:

the RAM's can so easy handle 2000, (Very good German Qualtity :)) and i really want it to work.
and yes, i mean the splashtop, thats the Linux Enviroment that is suppose to come with p5e3 deluxe that everyone was talking about, i dont have it for some reason? maybe a early revision? or a late, where they have removed it?
I got a taste for cellshock now, and will by it more times, i like the solid Heatspreaders that are put on them, it just feels quality and that u guys are good at this, not atleast the top performance that you have deliviered for some time now :) , appriciate that you are here as a rep, and a big helper nomather what :) thanks!
yeah, the rams are almost as cold as the air blowing on them..ddr3 are cold compared to ddr2.. even with 2v.
yeah im a fan of high volts, ive allways thhought higher were nescessery to push it, so im used to start high hehe, i killed my striker that way i guess, but the board sucked anyway ;) but that was before, now the technology has improved i guess... :)
