UnOfficial EVGA X58 Classified Owners Thread

[FedericoUY]

Has anybody tried the Super Talent 2200C8 on this motherboard? Looks like there are really fast modules that come in 2x2gb packages. Eva2000 tested
on X58 in triple channel and reached some really good results. (http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=253110)
If anybody have this combo and want to share some results would be great. Regards.

they are about the same as any 2k C8 elpida hypers.

Hi guys....

New BIOS 73 Updates:

* Added TRL setting to assist with memory compatibility while overclocking

I bet you guys know EVGA E-LETT good, but it is new to me and I have couple of question

How do you start multiple instance of it?
How accurate is the readings in Monitoring tab, the Vcore, VVT, DRAM etc.. ?
Does that OCing thing works?

I'm using it on a SR-2 tho, but it should be almost the same.

[FabricioGS]

Why do you need multiple instances of it?

[The_Game]

Just start multiple times CPUz I think eleet cant be started many times from 1 account. As to the voltage reading its the same like every other software(everest etc..). Just measure ur voltages with DMM and dont look at this. Its showing me VTT = 1.5v, I`m using VTT = 1.4v. DRAM its showing 1.72 and this is correct I have to say 1.65 set at BIOS but classified is overvolting so the real one is 1.72 measured but NB Core is 1.15 it`s showing 1.18. OC works good np I still cant make setfsb to work with classified and the only software I`m using for OC in Windows is eleet.

It shows temp for just 1 CPU at a time, an I have to select/switch to see the temp for each CPU.

Yes, I can open several CPU-z, but not E-LEET.

I'm wondering how accurate these E-LETT readings are compared to your DMM-readings? Specially the DRAM and VVT?

Yeah, SW-reading is not the best, but that's all I got for now. The DRAM is overshooting on SR2 too, the 1.61v BIOS-set ends up as 1.65v in W7, But the VVT is really weird, , it is increasing on CPU#1, 1.325v BIOS-set ends up as 1.33V in W7, but is decreasing on CPU#2 from 1.375v BIOS-set to 1.35v (all according to E-LEET). These variations are OK, as long as they are not too off from DMM-readings, then we can adjust accordingly, but I don't know how off from DMM-readings they really are on SR-2 .

Why don't you use Core Temp??

[Sam_oslo]

Why don't you use Core Temp??

I'm using that too, but it is reporting ~3-4'C less at idle, and 4-5'C more at load compared to E-LEET. Reltemp is showing only 6-core and reporting different temp too. The temps av individual cores is not the same between these 3 either.

I guess the X56xx ES doesn't got the most accurate sensors, but I'm trying to get an idea of real load-temp, and have to switch E_LEET all the time, and it doesn't make this confusion any simpler. It is OK, I can live with that for now.

[safan80]

Why don't you use everest? it has support for the SR-2

[cowie]

is -118c about right for cold issues with 980x and 760?

[blinker0]

Sorry For the Noob question.. Old PSU died it had 2 8 pin connectors. The new PSU has 1 and a 8 pin PCI-E connector I am not useing. Can it be used for the other 8 pin on the board?

no
you will kill the board

[blinker0]

Thanks..

testing i7 950 @ air

[ZL1Killa]

what is the word on the latest bios that came out on 7/07?? is it any good compared to the s61J

[SAE]

For 980X^^

I'm having a bit of trouble trying to replicate some of my results on the Classified that I got on my Asus P6X58D, specifically my best clocks to date as seen here. I'm using the same CPU (switched back to the W3540), same memory and PSU. I wonder if there is some setting in the Classified BIOS I need to adjust as it is a lot more exhaustive than the Asus.

i'll be back on the classy next week n post a template
but so far i like 664 bios best

I'm using the 4-Way Classified (got it at a stupidly low price) but it should clock the same as the 3-way correct?

yes it should
you should be thinking or running higher than 4.0

[Shiranui Gen-An]

This chip needs a lot of voltage and I'm on air so 4.2~4.3GHz is probably the max. I'm more interested in clocking all these Elpida Hyper kits over DDR3-2100

i think you should aim for cas6 instead
but i will be playin with the 760 soon

i keep looking at this board for bloomfield to replace my not so great (as you already know) r3e. does it run that hot that it is a must to wc the board? i really have no desire to buy a block and change my setup to cool the board.

Just wanna get some crazy clocks like OnePageBook or 3oh6, but I'm guessing I just need a better CPU. Then again a chip that can do DDR3-2100 C8 HyperPi stable can't be too bad...
