The beep was (I put one ram in red slot), but now it shows 7F?

[M_T_M]

I have my cpu on 4.0Ghz but it shows 0mhz in bios. Why is before turbo mode function X. Why cant i enable turbo mode function?

Hi,

I have not been active for a long time no so please tell me the best bios to put in for a i7 980x?
..and are this board still one of the best?

[SAE]

Latest version (56), I'd assume. It contains the critical hotfix microcode.

980X@4.5 Prime 1R OK

You should be using LinX to test stability. Prime95 just doesn't cut it anymore.




Can anyone confirm if I will need to mod my E760 to get an E5620 to work? I thought I read somewhere that this is needed for the 6 core Xeon's but no idea about the 4 core 32nm Xeons.

Isn't the mod only required for Dual QPI Xeons?

It is a dual QPI Xeon. Well that is what I was afraid of.

yeah man, it sucks. I have two X5555's here waiting for an SR-2 and I can't do shizzle with them.

the mod is fairly easy if you have the hands of a two year old lol.

Ya it doesn't seem that difficult. Only pictures I can find are here

But they aren't actual pictures of the board.

Nice kazukun what kind of cooling? Can't wait till I get my 980x on Friday.

Prime95 doesn't cut it anymore?? 50 passes of Linx stable, but not 8 hour prime stable... seems to happen all the time.

Mind if I join this thread XD
Anyone has i7 980 in EVGA Classified 4 way SLI (E762)?
Mine didn't scale so well in terms of vcore/frequency beyond 4.2Ghz...
I can get my 980x 16 copies of 32M PI Stable with 1.24375v @ 200x20, uncore was running 4000Mhz while dram was running 1600Mhz CAS 7 (EVGA didn't allow me to adjust uncore ratio below x2 of dram frequency...)
and 4.2Ghz was proven stable as well with 1.275v BIOS. However any frequency above that will require a huge pump of vCore voltage to keep stable but I didn't see such issues in other X58 motherboards
I was suspecting if this is the motherboard BIOS issue or what..can anyone help to test?
My i7 980x batch is 3003B466.

[justin.kerr]

need more V core
I have same batch, 1.39 to get 4.5Ghz, and it seems to be better than most VTT seems to be very needy to.. it will run 2200Mhz RAM, stable, but way to high VTT, just for 2000Mhz I need 1.4V VTT

That's an issue of 980 and LinX, a lot of people are reporting the same in the Gulfy thread.

[justin.kerr]

I have had it happen to a lot of CPU's not just the 980x's

[Enigma422]

Hi, I have a pretty specific question regarding this board regarding an SLI system and a Corsair HX1000W. Do you guys with similar set-ups run the second 12V ATX connector and if you do how do you guys set up the rails for the modular connections?

[=[PULSAR]=]

Any results with 980x on air?

[hlonipha]

Guys is 1.30v IOH too high or too low for a gtx 295 quad sli setup?
I just measure my voltage with a mutlimeter and that is actual volts eleet is reading the same

Please advice

I just picked up my E760 from a fellow member here in the "classifieds"... (brand new return from RMA) just this week and I'm also new to the 1366 platform coming from socket 1156. I've got a nice batch 920 (3938B010) and will most likely run my rig with a low voltage overclock ~4.0GHz for a "crunching" 24/7 setup. I've done some testing at 21x200 and 19x~210 but I seem to be having some bclk issues at around 209. I most likely need more voltages. Can any one give me some VTT and IOH voltage ranges to work with for bclk in the 210 to 220/225 range. I'd like to bench the chip at 215x19 and then 215x21 and providing that I'm successful... perhaps even push on from there.

Note: I'm running with vdroop enabled on air with a Noctua and two medium speed fans in push/pull. These are just short stability runs I'm just starting to test the chip.
