That's probably just the limit of the current X58 chipset. Revision B3 might fix that.
Is a Rampage II Extreme with X58 rev. B3 available?Quote:

Either a V2, Rev. 3.01G or 2.02G something. Currently it is Rev. 2.01G. You will definitely notice the difference in revision numbering.Quote:

i.e. if I set BCLK to 200 MHz, I can choose only 1333 and 1600 MHz as memory frequencies.
Anyone with R2E and a Xeon can confirm this behavior?
This LINK seems to confirm it :(
I don't have in my BIOS the two controls that are enlighten in yellow:

I can confirm this for you. I have already looked into it a few days ago. Xeon W3520 is fully locked chip. DRAM, Uncore, and QPI are all locked. You only have two options for DRAM, 6x and 8x. You know how they say, if it seems to good to be true (like this chip) it probably is...I knew there had to be a catch with it.Quote:

This seems very poor to me and when compared to the same CPU and memory of other systems on HWbot.com they are definatly poor.
I have tried almost everything I can think of to no avail.
Any help is truely appreiciated.

Is that a different mobo than the regular RIIE? Wonder what the V2 is all about...
From the template it appears you have disable HT. By doing this with wprime you have reduced the number cores to 4 enable HT then set number of threads to 8 and you should score lower times.Quote:

I am positive that SpeedStep and C1E have to disabled.
Now to test the other settings to see how they affect things.
Yes and I asked for suggestions on ram for a RE2 :D 1gb x3Quote:

If you set the DRAM Bus Voltage to Auto it will push the voltage way past 1.65v in a heartbeat. :eek:
Here is some readings from Everest:
Voltage Values:
CPU Core 1.52 V
CPU PLL 1.82 V
North Bridge Core 1.27 V
North Bridge +1.5 V 1.51 V
South Bridge Core 1.32 V
South Bridge +1.5 V 1.51 V
QPI 1.50 V
DIMM 1.79 V:shrug:
This is with the Core i7 920 @ 4.6 Gig (B-220 M-21)
Still can not get the WPrime 32 times below 6 sec, even pushing the system this hard.
I have no idea what could be causing this problem.
After beating my brains out trying to squeze better numbers out of my system. I decided to try a different HD that I had setup with Windows XP 64, Vista Ultimate 64 and Windows 7 (64 bit).
Without even pushing the system very hard Windows 7 and Vista get wPrime 32 results in the very low 6 seconds @ 4.2G.
ARGH bitten again by MS.:rofl:

Hello All,
I have just completed a new build: i7-965, 6gb Corsair Dominator GT 1866, BFG GTX 295 in Quad, Vista 64, Thermaltake Toughpower 1200 and the Asus R2E r2 board. One immediate problem I am having is that only 4gb are being reported in bios (1306, 1104, 1205) and windows. However, CPU-Z reports 6gb. Memory is fine, checked it six ways from Sunday. I have seen this issue on other forumns and have tried some of the suggestions to no avail. Is this an RMA issue, bios issue, driver issue, I do not know. Any suggestions would be appreciated...
Sorry if I'm jumping in on this thread or out o fline with the question...
i think it'll be the same mobo, but with a different chipsetQuote:
