hmm ok then it´s just weak ^^
drops down to 11.4 volts when setting my a64nc to 1.7vcore and 2.6ghz :(
have to admit that i have an oc´ed 6800 in the rig :D
Did you measure with a multimeter on a spare molex connector under load. I ask, because this could also be caused by the mobo giving in. For example, my Tagan PSU always regulates to a perfect 12V, even under full load, but the monitoring software says something about 11,6V under load. These .04V difference is a drop caused by the mobo and not by the PSU.Quote:

Quick question:
What does everyone have their AGP voltage set to ?
I have mine at 1.6V.
agp 1.65v here... improved my overall stability.
mine is 1.5v...
1.6v for me.... it is stable at 1.5v, i jus do it to be on the safe side.
jus for the record, i hav NEVER seen a benefit from raising vAGP
I was just wondering if it could improve increased fsb. I'm just confused because i memtest test #5 @258fsb and it can do 100 passes and then spit out 2 errors.
How many passes untill a person considers a certain fsb stable. 40? 50?
If I get no errors in memtest for a complete run overnight of test #5, then at least 8hrs of Prime Blend, i call it stable.
Those two errors may be heat related Klisp... what are you ambient temps like, and how good is the airflow over the modules?
@ Rabbi_NZ , i can only play 3D games if i raise my vagp. :) this at 240Mhz of course.
btw, congrats for the wonderfull job at "VX/UTT Voltage Scaling" thread. :)
I should try harder with my Buffalo CH5, i've just passed super pi 8MB at 250 Cas 1'5-2-2 1T. I don't know the vdimm cause the LEDs are burned (and i don't have a voltimeter at the moment), but it may be low because the heatsink of the ocz booster is quite cold.
Thanks mate :)Quote:

My ambient temps in my room are good. I have to wear a nice sweater in here.Quote:

Your cooling is much better than mine... doest look like you got much to worry bout there bro.
What are your timings?
For reference, I run these timings. They are in the order found in the DFI BIOS:
1T-2-2-8-2-7-15-0-3-1-2-3072-1-Increase-255-Level2
Well i run these timmings on my DFI BIOS:
1T-2-2-6-2 and the rest of the settings are on auto.
I'm gonna see if your setting will help since i'm running everything on auto.
Here is a screen shot of my current "A64 Tweaker" settings:
hav you tried Tras=8?
Also, bare in mind those timings I gave are the tightest I can run without hindering my overclock... you RAM may not be as forgiving, but give them a go
Yup, i tried 8 and 10.Quote:

I'll try 8 and 10 again and see if i could run at 259 or 260mhz. Usually running 259 will cause 18+ errors per pass of test #5.
Well i still got errors running @ 8 and 10 tras but they were less. I got about 268 errors the first pass. When i changed the drive strength to 4 i got around 216 errors on the first pass.
Then i decided to play with the "tref" so i set it to 3072 like you had it and got over 300+ errors. Then i set it to "tref" 0128 for the hell of it and then the first pass was error free. wtf ? :confused:
I then went back into windows and checked cpu-z and it says i'm still running 1:1. I think this might be my new setting. What you think ?
sigh, i give up. just gonna wait and try it on an AMD setup.. Intel aint doing me right. BH6 and BH5 gives me trouble on this platform.
hhmmm interesting... I only tested the effect on performance with Tref, but didn't do much in the way of seeing whether or not it effects max MHz.
But yeah like I said bro, that Tref (3072) is ABSOLUTE "tightest" I can run... I actually gained a second in SuperPI 1MB @ 10x256 with that setting
Here's something I posted at DFI-Street:
And here's something jess posted at DFI-Street:Quote:
I only ran the settings that related to 200MHz (1:1) ratio... but here are my results with the settings I tried (CPU @ 10x256):
3120 : A close 2nd. Sandra bandwidth = 397x/397x , SuperPI 1MB = 33s-34s
0064 : No POST
1560 : 3rd best. Sandra bandwidth = 393x/393x , SuperPI 1MB = 34s
0032 : Horrendous Bandwidth!!! Sandra bandwidth = 500/500 , SuperPI 1MB = 1:02 m
0780 : 4th best. Sandra bandwidth = 381x/381x , SuperPI 1MB = 34s
0016 : No POST
3072 : Best for me. Sandra bandwidth = 397x/397x , SuperPI 1MB = 33s
0128 : Sandra bandwidth = 252x/252x , SuperPI 1MB = 35s

Correct... now i upped the fsb up untill i got an error on a first pass of memtest. I hit a wall @ 262fsb with 5 errors. So i backed down to 261fsb and am now running loops of test 5. Right now i'm on my 7th loop and so far i have had no errors. :toast:Quote:
