    Voltages on GTX2 and Sandy Bridge?

    Hi guys...

    just curious to know what you guys run, in terms of voltages, on gtx2 (or something comparable) on sandy bridge for 1070-1090 7-7-6-20 54 1T? Curious because i have to run 1.84v to get them to run super pi 32m and still not waza stable

    3d is fine with slightly lower volts
    just wondering if there is something i'm doing wrong... or if i need to use other sticks and see if they're better

    other timings are:
    tRRD: 4
    tRTP:4
    tFAW:4
    tWTR:4
    tCKE:4
    tWCL:4

    not particularly sure if these are going to yeild best efficiency since i'm not 100% on what all of them do lol

    too much voltage and efficiency drops a little

    hmmm... i'll try and see if i can use a lower voltage.

    Do you know what most people use, running ~same clocks?
    for some reason super pi 32m will work if i don't use waza.. but i freeze if i do

    don't kill the rams just for sp32m(and you don't have the 6er yet ) you can utilize those speeds for 3d01 and many gpus

    just get a ram pot and be done with it... or another single stage just for the ram

    don't worry i wont
    i've been limiting voltage on these alot.. never went above 1.9v (short session) ever.
    also have ram pots now

    Don't be so sure that hypers will work as you dream :p
    Depends your cpu's IMC. On my cpu I can run the GTX2s at 1150 CL7 with 1,74V or so. Couldn't do the same on my previous cpu...

    ^^^ This...I was never very impressed with my GTX2s, because I only got to try them with four CPUs...I'm sure if I could have found a better CPU I would have been more impressed

    @ badatgames....nice HW And nice runs....I think you can run those speeds at 1.8V or so without getting cold

    i think you are right.. swapped out to 2700k and i would get freeze after a few iterations with just 8-8-8 2133 1.65v (which is rock solid on my golden 2600ks)
    so i think cpu imc is a big factor...
