[franco_cov]

without sounding thick what will this tell me ?

[T_M]

memset is software that allows modification of RAM timings from within windows.

[dinos22]

without sounding thick what will this tell me ?

just load the application and increase tRFC and see what happens

[franco_cov]

ok will do that shortly as i have prime95 running at moment seeing if i can achieve a stable 3.0mhz before playing with it as since i had board a few days ago i cant get a stable overclock at all

[franco_cov]

i cant use that program i have the 790i chipset and keeps giving me the msg wrong chipset

this version should work...can't remember.

[franco_cov]

whats classed as setting tRFC high as its on 60 at the moment before touching it ?

[franco_cov]

and if i save it so thtat it boots up with new settings what happens if it hangs can i reset it?

Are you sure you've downloaded the latest version ? ( v3.5 Beta ) [ link's on the very last page ]

60 is very tight mate

loosen it to 70/80/90/100 and see if it affects stability

it's interesting the bios is setting it so tight heh

[dinos22]

unfortunately i don't think you can actually have it autoload in windows

i asked nvidia to put tRFC in bios to make it easier to tweak high density RAM or 4xslot configs

[franco_cov]

well i just applied and saved it to 80 and rebootedmy windows and when i loaded up memtest it remembered 80 ? so does that mean that windows has booted up with 80 ? and if so do i now try an overclock to see if its more stable or what just a little bit confused :S

[franco_cov]

still reboots if i increase from 3.0ghz

[T_M]

How about you start a new thread in the Intel section?

[dinos22]

lol i just modded the second card and watercooling it as well

wow guys

i am going to be able to bench at 900MHz core 2000MHz shader (probably a bit more on this one) and 1GHz RAM (still not modded)

[dinos22]

cooled by Corsair Nautilus 500 + DTEK GPU WB



it's a slow CPU but you can still see the power of this OC in nature

[MarcusFoX]

Nice setup dude I go the same board and I can run my cpu at 4.7 like nothing... this board is seriously impressive without water cooling the NB or MCP

you've posted what....a gazillion times today...you trying to get access to for sale section or something

[neo mike]

So i take it you like this board Dinos, been trying to decide what board to buy, im tired of p45 boards. Nice clocks, i think you just sold me on the 790i, how does it compare to x48 chipset ?

well Intel has X58 out now
its the

[neo mike]

Yeah x58 is very nice, but i have a e8500 thats needs some whipping, not ready to go i7 just yet.

Maybe........ I have this exact setup minus the phase ln2 so I actaully did read this Thread and watched the youtube video
