Foxconn Bloodrage-Quantum Force- -X58- -Retail-

[zalbard]

Is there a way to adjust the PCIe bus FSB?

no, not atm... asked about this a couple of times already...

Does "not atm" mean that this option will be added in the future?
And two more semi-random questions...
Is it the only reason Bloodrage cannot score Bclk Classified can?
And is there some Bloodrage revision for x58 b3 planned, and if so, will it be possible to find out if that board is x58 b3 based or not?
Probably hard or no way to answer these questions, but Saaya might know, I just had to ask.
Don't

i need input since i am almost about to buy an X58 board...how is this board fairing?..is it average, good or excellent for overclocking?

what about Vdrop and Vdroop?

1st - eVGA Classified (without NF200)
2nd - Bloodrage or DFi UT X58 (depends on priority, mine was Bloodrage .. cause it looks great

Its excelent OC board (I've reached 4,2 and 220 BCLK on air with that)

vDroop works good, at least for me.

thank you for the feedback

It looks like a new bios will allow for the PCIe adjustment and they are claiming it should go beyond the 222BCLK wall. I doubt there will be any revisions to the board itself since Foxconn is closing that side of the business. It's a shame since this is one of the best boards I have ever seen, both looks and performance wise.

[quake6]

Foxconn is closing quantum force??
I thought that was lie and also saaya said that Foxconn is creating QF am3 board, so...

[BenchZowner]

QF is being shut down.
They will more than likely release 1-2 boards that are ready and then stop making new boards, and just support/warranty the already sold boards.

Is there a guide to getting the Bloodrage to 4Ghz on a 920? I'm having an issue with QPI link speed getting really high.

When I set 200x20, I can get to the windows loading screen, then I crash. My vCore was only 1.2, so I don't know if I need more or not.

Try shared BIOS settings under Foxconn thread.

Btw. 1.2 vCore? Miracle that you've get into BIOS .. or you have D0 rev i7.

I guess that D0 should be 1.3V - 1.35V with vDroop enabled able to get 4GHz. Plus maybe push some VTT volts higher.

[Utnorris]

For 200x20 with HT and Turbo you will probably need 1.27v vcore and 1.25v VTT for a D0 and 1.36v vcore and 1.35v VTT for C0 series on the Blood Rage. If you got to Windows with 1.2v vcore that is a miracle.

[BrokeDown]

C0 stepping, vDroop disabled, HT enabled, Turbo enabled ( I never see x21 though)

-1.2 vCcore BIOS setting, default VTT - I can get into BIOS 200x20. Windows loading screen crashes.
-1.264 vCore, default VTT - I can get into Windows 200x20. Load 1.280v, 5 seconds into Prime blend BSOD.
-1.28 vCore, default VTT - I can get into Windows 200x20. Load 1.3v, 5 seconds into Prime blend BSOD.

I was told to leave VTT alone but I guess I need to adjust it up a little bit.

Did some more testing tonight:

BIOS settings:
-1.33 vcore
-+120mhz VTT
-1.64 vDIMM
-200x20 core

Windows:

-1.312 vcore no load, 1.360 load
-Core temps get up to 83°C according to RealTemp 3.00
-I can run Prime large FFTs for about 30 minutes before I get my first error.

Not sure if I want to turn up vCore anymore. Would turning up VTT some more get me stable?

[zalbard]

I doubt there will be any revisions to the board itself since Foxconn is closing that side of the business.

On the other hand, don't think there are any changes in the MB building procedure required to move to b3?
If I get it right, manufacturers will just start using different chips on their current motherboards, but that's it? Well, and new BIOS versions ofc.

Eh I runned my 220 BCLK at around +300mV VTT. Don't worry its safe on air up to 1.5V VTT. You must have really good chip.

Hey where can I find the board revision number# I cant find it?

[BenchZowner]

It's near the FDD connector on the bottom left part of the board.
The letters are nearly tiny, so pay attention

I am looking for ssome help to get my 920 to 3.8 - 4 GHz. I have tried a few of the templates above but none of them seem to get my computer to boot. I get a Blinking dash after the initial hardware screen.
I am using Bios P07

I would like my ram to run at it's rated speed of 1600.

I am also pretty confused by VTT. I have heard people say I shouldn't go above +200 but I see people using +300 so any hep or advice will be greatly appreciated.

System Specs
Core i7 920 Air cooled
Bloodrage GTI
6GB DDR3 OCZ 1600
EVGA GTX 260
300GB velociRaptor Drive (OS/Games)
640GB Black caviar (Storage)

[The-Fox]

Anyone managed to hit Uncore speed equal greater than 4400Mhz and care to share some settings ?
I can't seem to get that board stable above 4300Mhz Uncore, even at 1.8v Dram and 1.7V VTT voltage

[BenchZowner]

On air cooling/watercooling unless you have a very very very very good i7 you simply can't no matter how much Voltage you supply your components with.

[The-Fox]

Tried on DICE too, may be the temps weren't low enough...
so, basically you say Uncore scales with cold ?

Someone can tell me what version of BIOS I have to download the Bloodrage has compatibility for the processor i7 960? Thank you!

Get P09, it should be compatibile as my 930 works on that. We have own forum, you know?
