UnOfficial EVGA X58 Classified Owners Thread

OK I got the ST1500 I installed it in my Spedo case, let me tell you something about it...... it is HUGE !
Bigger than a thermaltake ToughPower 1500w by around an inch and it is much heavier !

I have not tested the cold boot issue because installing this PSU drained me !
there are 2 things though I find them really bad in this PSU, one of them I totally new about it and it did not worry me much which is the lack of power switch in the back of the PSU, now the 2nd issue is really annoying and did make installing the PSU a little on the annoying side, its the cables, they are inflexible enough for me !

I'll test the PSU later tomorrow, now I go play some Star Trek Online !

OMG finally, the silverstone ST1500 solved my Cold Boot issue !! SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET

Congrats!

Congrats!

Thx Now I'll start overclocking, I'll take things slowly so I could get used to the EVGA BIOS which I find very unorganized unlike the Gigabytes and the Asus!

Just use the BIOS to set your RAM timings and final overclock settings. The entire overclocking and tweaking stage can be done in ELEET.

Does Eleet change the BIOS settings from windows or I need to run it every time ?

[ReverendMaynard]

lovin this board

[Salamndar]

BIOS settings and what cooling are you using?

Great OC by the way

Thanks mate. I'm using DICE with a Koolance LN2/DICE pot.

Boot at 109mhz PCIE, pull to 113.4 via Eleet
Vcore depends on your cpu I use 1.5-1.525v
VTT depends on your cpu I used +300
QPI PLL vcore 1.4v
IOH PLL Vcore 1.8v
CPU PLL Vcore 1.8v
1OH I/O 1.6v
ICH vcore 1.05
cpu signal less
qpi signal less
vtt pwm 610
cpu pwm 1210

[Dahaka]

my team and i have some numbers to.



Anyone have problems to boot over 4500mhz under Dry ice? this one can't :S.

Hmm what Graphics card are you using ?

[H2O]

Does Eleet change the BIOS settings from windows or I need to run it every time ?

It changes it right from Windows. You can go through the entire cycle of rough overclock-stress testing-tweaking right from Windows without rebooting, and once you are satisifed with your settings just reboot and save them in the BIOS.

[ReverendMaynard]

Hmm what Graphics card are you using ?

MSI R5850. Why?

[t_ski]

Many high OC's are done with basic cards that aren't demanding on the rest of the system. Nice to see yours with a decent card.

[Dahaka]

MSI R5850. Why?

Nice.

I get the 240 bclk with a 5770, 2x 5770 and 3x 5770 just pushing the PCIe frecuency to 115mhz.

Regards!.

do you have the x-cool jumper in the right position? It's at the bottom of the ram slots, and it's key in booting cold.

Thanks dude. I was looking for a great base to get all of my benching and the board really made it easy. IOH voltages are key for those beat cards at high PCIE freq.

[Salamndar]

Dual Chip graphics card hates high PCI-E clocks !

that's where you adjust the IOH I/O and ICH vcore

[Salamndar]

True but still high PCI-E don\t coop with dual chip cards that good

Yep!, i move that jumper but this MB doesn't have an extra performance.

what temps are you trying to boot at? I can boot in at -68C every time on DICE.

I'm using the factory bios btw

FUUUUU!!! jajaja LOL.

Maybe can be that, i'm using the lastest bios, i will try the factory bios and one or two older bios.

PD: like -60° on DICE.

[tatts]

I take it most of you are using a multimeter to read volts? I just did a quick test and Eleet is out by quite abit

Vcore: Eleet 1.31 / Everest 1.31 / multi 1.28

DDR: Eleet 1.68 / multi 1.65 (1.64 load)

VTT: Eleet 1.4 load. 1.37 idle / multi 1.3 load, 1.29 idle

IOH (NB): Eleet 1.18 / multi 1.15

CPU PLL: Eleet 1.8 / multi 1.79

QPI PLL: Eleet 1.15 / multi 1.13

Both ICH: multi & Eleet read the same

[ZL1Killa]

when I get my damn monitor back i'll update with my settings & what I read with the multimeter. some of those thats a pretty good difference

What coldboot issue did you have?

What sort of cooling were you using? What kind of o/c were you trying?
