    Sounds like one of the mem timings might be off.

    appeared the first z87M OCF in Italy.
    There's any difference in efficiency between the z87M OCF and OCF standard?

    My -M OC Formula arrived today Thankyou to Nick & ASRock for the support!

    I got a feel for the BIOS by binning some CPUs and..... oh! OH MY! The BIOS is EXCELLENT. It's easy to navigate and timings/settings are explained PROPERLY. If I wouldn't have looked like a moron, standing there in my garage, I would have given the BIOS a round of applause.

    Here's some pics:




















































    (I expect the board will get its own review thread at some point)



    The board will be used mostly for 3D (funny that....,) but it's been a while since I SPi'd and it'd be nice to get back into it. I have some alright Hynix CFR here, so who knows what will happen

    Nope, readpoints have to be done the good, old-fashioned way

    New bios coming . Still has some issue with target cache present value ,but will not effect oc

    1. fix some auto rule for daily user , improve the oc ability on retail CPU

    2. improve memory oc under cold

    71 78 mean PCH unstable ... memory unstable or bclk too high might cause this issue .

    tRRD 4 is real min internally in the chipset. Remember, bus is 64 bit wide. Can't send ACT before last burst of 4 clocks is complete. Setting lower register will just revert to min or arbitrary value.

    exactly . i ever try to boot from 3 to 1 . Even boot up ,the performance is slower than 4 .

    This week splmann visited me in Vienna and we benched for three days until the bitter end!


    We binned about 11 modules rated at 2800 CL12, 1.65 volts


    One ADATA module did 3300 MHz with only 1.6 to 1.55 volts on air while pretesting, but it died on ln2 before we could max it out. Couldn't handle the voltage, I guess!


    The EK Memory Cooler got some action. Nice price, but the upper black part of the pot should not be made of plastic!


    That's the Hynix MFR you should get! Takes 2,4 volts (sometimes only in Windows) and scales both with voltage and cold. No cold bugs on our best 2 sticks!


    The funny little guy is splmann, the other punk is me


    We got a pretty nice result with an 8 gb module (2800 CL12 @ 1.65 volts) from ADATA: 3700 MHz CL13



    Links: hwbot.org | Validierung

    Our best two 4 GB sticks (after the low voltage one, that died) were both ADATA and did 1900 (mine) and 1930 (splmann). Crazy how the battle for memory suddenly is really about memory!

    3802 MHz CL14



    Links: hwbot.org | Validierung

    Thanks to Nick Shih for the extraordinary support. Your board is a very nice piece of hardware. Fast bootup, definitely the fastest fail recovery out there and very predictable. Congrats to Nick and the ASRock team!

    As with Ivy and most every platform, 4 is the lowest addressable value as Raja has stated, so no point in setting 1-3 as they should revert to 4 actually even thought it may be slower than actually setting 4.

    P.S. I'm not in to high clocks/validation ...just had to try it

    EDIT;
