UnOfficial EVGA X58 Classified Owners Thread

SAE bro
confirmed its the new bios

with some adjustments
very close now to get 2150 stable.. 4.3ghz uncore
hmm theres a few bugs etc sorting out atm on perfect voltage and subtiming.
making sure they are all at the lowest so can gauge whats 2200mhz will be.. 4.4ghz uncore . although ive already seen a few hitch at this like running my vtt at 1.6v
1.55 daily me thinkest no problem.. 1.6.. eh.
all this with ht off. as ht on .. my cooling solution and ambient temps where i live 35c all year long doesnt help .

finally got my h20 setup and added fans to the board itself along with my singlestage, which bios is best these days for good overclocks?

The last one is fine.

[Circaflex]

so that would be Bios 64?

[Wezly]

I just realized I should probably update my bios before I try any of this crazy stuff haha. It's been MONTHS...

Let's hope it helps...

13GHz bclk, 223.4 multi x59



to bad I don't have validation

[Esajuppeli]

Could someone post settings that you use for 210 BCLK?

thx

[ZL1Killa]

is the new bios worth the update? is it ok?

[owikh84]

Spec as per siggy

Hi,

this is the first Bios since the best S61J for Nehalems that runs overall
succefull with my Xeon 3520@4.2GHz, Batch A704.

All other BIOS from S61J to 65 makes great troubles with my Mushkin Redlines
on 2:8 Divider on 6-7-6-18-72-1T Settings. Now it runs very stable at moment
on running OS with Prime running at 1600MHZ@6-7-6-18 at 1.65v.
It looks good.

I hope the S3-Usue are fixed too, but can't test it now.

edit:

Once again the Divider-problem:
If i set my memory to divider 2:8 to run @1600MHz on 6-7-6-18@1.64v, the Board are initialize only 4.0 from 6.0 Gig of Ram. But i can run 6GB on 2000MHz with 2:10 Divider on 8-8-8-24@1.65v. Hmm....?

My Ram:
Mushkin Redline xtreme Performance DDR3-12800, 6-7-6-18@1.65v Product-ID: 998691

Just ran the BETA Bios and what a disaster lol i couldnt even OC my rig at all, had to keep all defualt settings. Reflashed to latest BIOS and runs like a dream again.

Set ure RTL's
thats what the bios options is for.
and ure clocks are not that stable also.

that means ure settings werent right in the first place

the new bios no difference than the previous
the difference was just on mch strap 1866.

RTL's? What's that?

[cstkl1]

RTL's? What's that?

round trip latency
in ure mem

set it
dont let it fluctuate
this is the main reason why the classified bios is so great
its the only mobo that u can set the rtl's

[SAE]

Radio Télévision Luxembourg -> www.rtl.de

j/k ... round trip latency - should be be set manually to optimize mem stability and throughput. They are being determined on an individual basis by the board/bios. You should check what values get set automatically. You can use CPU Tweaker from windows or you should be able to see them in the second column on your BIOS memory setup screen. Then work out optimal settings from there.

managed to get up to 2140 CL8.. HT off


2150.. is a real pain atm.

also theres a difference on rev 12 vs rev 13 of classified
rev 13 fly's on stock mobo voltages as shown
will post full 12 hours 100 linx when i manage to do 2150.. also will lower the latency to CL7.

[ChaosAD]

RTL's are set according to mem speed and latency? If so what do you think is the best setting for 1600 6-7-6-18-1T, to start with?

[cstkl1]

eh wrong
rtl is based on mem multi to uncore

example
1600 C6 uncore 3.2 rtl is 46,49,51..
1600 C6 uncore 4k is 53,56,58

[ChaosAD]

Oh i see, those values you posted are standard values for the given uncore speed or should i play with them a little?

[cstkl1]

thats the tightest u can go for 1600 cl6
oops made a mistake 1600 cl6 uncore 4k rtl is 58/60/62
1600 cl5 uncore 4k is 53/57/58
1600 cl7 uncore 3.2k is 53/57/58
1600 cl7 uncore 4k is 64/66/68

all tested with sp32 m need some tweaking for full test

[ChaosAD]

Is there some kind of formula to calculate these RTL values?

Edit: Auto values was 47/49/51. Changing to 46/49/51 as u suggested i had a small increase in Read a small decrease in Copy and Latency dropped from 44,1 to 43,9 according to everest.
