It is close to the CPU socket, you can see the socket lever in the pic.

The reason I indicated VTT where I did was twofold. It's an easier spot to access for someone not familiar with probing circuitry and also depending on the CPU cooling used the area around the processor can be next to impossible to access.Quote:

Praz I think you have the VTT & PLL indicated measure points round the wrong way on the "SK12" chip.
I don't get any VTT voltage drop if anything a slight over volt so the Clunk/Jimmy charts are out a bit IMO & should be checked again on an X48 with BIOS 0320.
CN :)
sorry to ask here, anyone heard any news about the dd3 version?
It's possible. I can double check them. Graphics isn't one of my strong points by a long shot.
Your readings compared to what Clunk posted is most likely completely normal. Got to remember that it will be just a matter of chance that two boards are going to read the same. What's considered in the industry as high precision is still a 1% variance when talking about components such as resistors. The voltages and charts any of us post is best considered as nominal values instead of absolute.

wasup, have now a new x48 and oczreaperX but, my system doesn´t start :S have a lcd post error code C1 , what i can do :(
Actually I just had a look at my P35 board & although the chip is in the same place the D6 side of it is switched out on the X48 so your P35 edge of stability pic is correct its just switched out on the X48.Quote:
Originally Posted by Praz

CN :)
I have Reaper X 6400 & 8000's & they both run fine on my x48.Quote:

CN :)
1.603 set and actual being 1.55 is more likely a divider issue. If so it should be the same on all boards. Can you check your board at that setting?
come over to our support forum and let the support guys look after youQuote:

Updated with some bigger pics and clearer labelling. :)
X38/X48 Voltage Measuring Points.
I think this may be down to the type of CPU - do you have a 45nm CPU you can try and see if your BIOS values match the tables?Quote:

In other words, if you have any 45nm CPU, what VTT voltage settings do you have a choice of?
Thanks.
Yes good point & no I haven't had a 45nm CPU in the x48 but I would have presumed the x48 limited vtt to 1.45v with a 45nm CPU as per Intel's maximum spec just like they did with the P35 & X38.Quote:

Any news about the UT X48 T2R version?Has anyone got it?
the oficial page,has having problems, i trying to download bios, from official page, but appears corrupt info or a lot of letters and numbers.
same here i think server crashed lolQuote:

hey anyone using that bernstein card? i gave it a few weeks , playing with settings/drivers and hopeing it would get better , but my god , it has to be the worse sounding card ive ever heard lol its terrible. voice is so low and no bass . very tinny sound .
i tried a few realtec drivers and the sound is bad with all of them. must be the card.
im looking at getting one of these -Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatal1ty Pro but im worried it wont fit. the pci slots are so damn close to gpu. itll be really squashy.
Yes we are waiting to get the German Watercool soon, if you interested put your name on the list:Quote:

My LP UT P35's CPU voltage measures pretty much the same measured with a DMM as what I set in BIOS with vdroop control enabled & something like a .03 ~ .04v over-volt with droop control disabled. DMM measure voltage is something like .02 ~ .03v higher than CPU-Z shows.
There are some areas of the voltage supply that get a bit funky as you run through the scale but I have never observed any wild over-volting rather under volting from what I set/asked for in BIOS if anything.
The LP UT P35 is a very powerful board & can max out anything you put near it real quick.

Thanks again man:)
just recieved another 2gb of crucial ballistix 1066. i tried to match the batch number to my other set, but crucial is very sneaky imo when it comes to this, they wont give u the last 4 digits, even though i requested them. so i had no way of knowing they were one sided modules as the rest of the batch number was the same as my originals.
luckily they still overclocked fine upto 1142mhz, thats not bad for 4x1gb.
i just think these companies should be honest and be willing to release all information about there product.
The last 4 or 5 digits are the extension number and usually only on the modules themselves, the outside packaging box doesn't list these extension numbers so no way for someone to know unless the break the seal on the packaging. I guess crucial would have their own way of knowing maybe ?Quote:

hope it helps with overheating.
Keep an eye on the heat spreaders they just come off for no reason... Use 1 inch binders to keep them in place.Quote:

yeah thanks ill keep an eye on that. and i have a 90mm fan on it now so hopefully thats enought.Quote:

Hey anyone try this board with a Xeon 3360? I just got the Xeon today and put it in the X48 board with the 3/20 BIOS. I noticed that this new BIOS has a warning for the vCore and it goes up to 1.4500v before the numbers turn pink or red ... supposedly to let you know you may fry your CPU ... :rofl: Anywho, does anyone have a template for the quad 45nm Xeon? I have been out of touch with this thread and didn't read ALL of it yet ... so if anyone can give me a ballpark start, it would be greatly appreciated ...:up:
Just curious if going past the 1.45 vCore voltage would really do any harm to the 45nm processors ... so far with a little up and down experimenting, RealTemp hasn't shown anything over 55C ... just not quite ready to put a heavy load on this proc ... not yet anyways ... :D
Xeon 3360 w/IFX 14 and two Noctua NF-12P
LT X48 T2R
4GB OCZ Reaper PC2 8500 (2 x 2GB)
Yeah, had the same issue recently, I had to RMA one of my ballistix tracer 1066, got back a single sided, which sorta sucks because the LEDs are single rowed instead of the double I have on the other 3 stick. It's not killing me, just a minor drag. Now I'm have more memory problems, had to underclock them tonight just to pass 90 minutes of memtest. Not sure which I'm paranoid more about, the RAM or the P5K dlx. But that's why looking to go back to DFI and put a new system together. :) ( I have a 80mm fan I've been blowing on them and the NB, didn't help enough though.)Quote:

yeah same with older crucial pc2-8500 tracers i had http://i4memory.com/showthread.php?t=4218 - one set hs was installed off center heh and other were lifting off... no probs with non-tracers even for older clip ones.. the tracer LED chip in middle of module is usually slightly taller than ICs forcing the gap from what i can see on mine.
not yet. hopefully soon.. got 5 sets of 2x2GB memory to test out on UT X48-T2R :DQuote:

how do they work with no cooling at all?

All with active cooling (OCZ XTC).

Sorry to be a pain, but I was hoping someone could answer my question regarding a vCore limit to the 45nm Quads ... in my case the Xeon 3360 ... :confused:
I am slowly working into this board and proc with 4GB OCZ Reaper PC2 8500. I can't quite seem to get a decent range of voltages that will let me go above 445FSB with either the 8 or 8.5 multi ... any suggestions? At 440 FSB with the 8.5 multi, and vCore around 1.36v she'll boot into Windows (XP 64) without a hitch, but as soon as I try to run Prime95, the first two cores halt immediately , yet the second two keep on working ... really weird shyt! I can bring it back down to stock volts and not a single problem with all four cores ... :confused:
Those Prime95 issues can be due to wrong GTL settings or disabled.Quote:

It's not always vcore that your processor is asking for.
I have been working with them today ... I started all over from scratch and now I am in a Prime run with settings as follows: vCore-1.26v(real 1.24v); CPU VTT-1.1v(same); NB-1.462v(real 1.45v); DRAM-2.19v(real 2.16v); 8.5 multi x 400 FSB, DRAM Target speed is 333/800, GTL is disabled for the time being ...
I have had it up higher and did some preliminary benching with SuperPi but what is the fault when the error says "NOT IN ROUND" or "NOT IN CONVERGENCE" or something to that effect? Do I need more or less of whatever?
thanks, now im really worried lolQuote:

Silly question, are the green and yellow board connectors UV reactive?
If X48 is like X38, then memory clocks maybe sensitive to clock fine delay values once oc'd - might want to fine tune the values for your memory http://i4memory.com/showthread.php?t=4743 which can product very dramatic gains in some cases!Quote:

edit: I also have tinkered a bit with gtls, and maybe that was one of the reasons I hit 4.2 and posted one time. Any recommendations for 4.0-4.2ghz gtls and corresponding vtt?
double edit: I am no longer even stable at 3.6 for long periods, ater a while I get app crashes then bsod.
I just checked im my blue led case, and I didn't see much glow off of the sata plugins. Everything else lights up I think.Quote:

Any help would be great.
Have you run 3dmark 06 yet ??
Yeah i did. Multiple times. Supposedly there is a compatibility issue with DFI X38 and 3870X2. Guess the problem was brought accross to the X48. Anyone know of a sure fire fix for this?

edit* relaxed settings didnt do anything, so forget that q's . still unstable with occt. im trying what u said and i reduced my memory speed. but i had to reduce fsb to reduce memory speed. how can i reduce memory speed only? it doesnt seem to have a separate setting for reducing memory speed? i overclocked using strap settings and increasing fsb i didnt increase memory manually.
also is occt to strict? seems stable with prime but looses out with occt.
For OCing and WCing, is it ok to stick with the stock SB heatsink? I'd expect so, since if I recall what I read somewhere, 2 of the things the SB is responsible for is the JMicron and the on-board sound, neither of which I'll be using I expect, plus that high intake fan on the TJ09 will probably put air right on it. I'm just in planning to order parts mode and wanted to see if I needed to snag something like an Enzotech SLF-1.
SB heatsink works well, doesn't really get very hot.Quote:

edit* ok i did it , but the stable "current" settings wont match the manual settings? sometimes by more than 50. i had to use the closest figure. any way of setting it to the exact figure?
damn i cant get it stable at 475/1141 . becuase i cant set fine delay to the exact stable settings.
is it better to just keep lowering it till its stable? lower= stable? its a shame this bios wont allow me to set it manually properly.
I just ran prime95 for 11 hours straight with my q6600,
9x420 = 3780MHz
strap 400/800
vcore 1.392v

And now I installed another 4 gigs of ram, let's see how high I can go with 8gb :) Now benching 9x425
mines prime stable for 5 hours but fails with occt. i think occt is either way to strict with its testing or prime is weak. has to be one or the other.Quote:
