My Crosshair V Formula-Z doesn't have multi's above 2400. I'm running 2400 9-11-11-25 for daily use. Pronblem is that you can't run CPU-NB lower than your ramspeed so if you want to run DDR2600 you...

Whatever you do, DON'T touch the pins, they're fragile beyond belief. Just return the board.

I don't know why you want to know ratios for CPU-NB as you don't change a ratio number in bios but you change the frequency. At least on Asus boards, i don't know what board you've got?

For my...

Thank you guys.

L0ud, i have a 1244PGT here too that does pretty similar on water to the one i put on cold. I don't expect much more from that one then i got from this chip. Weeknumbers mean...

My 1249PGT maxed out at a mere 7.4G . :( http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=2692072 Did 5.6G Cinebench watercooled at -3C ambient though.

Hey Dave, that looks like a very nice setup! I love that little benchtable you got there but it appears to me as being made of wood, is it? If it's made out of a durable material like plexi or...

Just because my chip sucks doesn?t mean yours will be equally as bad. Maybe yours will shine under LN2 but i?m not too sure. I think your 8300 is a high leakage chip which might go higher so don?t...

1249PGT under LN?:

I got the voltage reading with DMM figured out. I guess it's not a good idea to take ground from my case.

Just did an LN2 session on Vishera yesterday, see my thread for info. Hope your chip will...

I just swiched off cores in bios and raised cpu speed with TurboEVO, not the way to go i guess. PSCheck is better? This was 1.95V, i didn't have the balls to go higher. :)

Yesterday me and my friend Pete aka ExpatGriZ benched the 1249 chip under LN2. We benched the chip in a Crosshair V Formula board i bought specifically for this type of benching so i can leave the...

Dave, i have never been a fan of Asrock boards myself but i have owned the Z77 Formula board designed by Nik Shih and i have to say it was an absolute formidable board. What i'm trying to say is that...

That is one hot bugger! A serious 5G contender if you can manage the heat. :jealous:

Thank you for the explanation although i have no idea what CPU fuse delta values are. :shrug:

2.4GHz CPU-NB is fine. To be honest, DDR2400 ram is way overkill, especially with your cpu only running 4G. Member MusicismyLife tested memoryspeed and timings on this platform. Suprisingly DDR1866...

Sounds interesting. How do you calculate this value?

And if you get tired of that 8320 i'll volunteer to give it a home, some love and care. :)

Ermm, I3 is only a dual core with HT. Vishera is a full grown 8 core CPU. We'd better stop comparing to Intel and just enjoy Vishera. ;)

Your post made me wonder. Tried another DMM i use for my work, a professional true RMS meter. Same thing. Funny thing is, i took ground from my case and that happend to be the problem. If i take...

Pics or it didn't happen! :D

Congrats on your new home Dave! :toast:

If you weren't on the other side of the world for me i would have come over to celebrate and have a beer.

Good luck and...

Ht link should be 2600 default.

Funny how software reads out voltage dipping down, DMM tells a whole different story. I'm really afraid to go by what e.g. CPU-Z tells me for Vcore, if i set LLC...

Ivan my friend...i owe you a big beer! :toast:

300ns did the trick! I would have never ever looked into that myself, thinking trfc is a completey memory related...

I think you guys expectations of these chips are a little too high. I've had 3x FX 8350, non of them ran 4.8G stable at reasonable voltage. Pretty sure i could have gotten 4.8G by brutal force like...

Cheers The Stilt.

No idea why i want that myself but i guess i was exploring the limits of the board. :) Up till now my last 3 Crosshair boards all went 300+ except for this one, maybe that's...

The AMD section has been dead all weekend, i wonder where all AMD enthusiasts have gone.

This FSB thing is driving me nuts. Tried bios 1002, 1101 and 1201, all were the same. Tried booting at...

My 1249PGT has 1.35V cpu vid. Definately needs lots of volts to get stable. Undecided which chip to keep now. The 1244PGT has 1.325V cpu vid and needs slightly less volts.

How does your chip clock?

Better CB score with higher HT link? Really?
