My REX arrived today. I have paired it up with my Dominator 1866 C7's and an E8600. This is my first time with DDR3 so I'm in for a steep learning curve.

**radaja** · 07-23-2009, 05:25 AM

CryptiKthats great to hear.maybe we can help eachother out.ive got a kit of g.skill ddr3-2000 2x1GB coming and
im really hoping for some great clocks.but these dividers im not familar with(maybe its because of the crap ram ive got now)
very limiting.either way good to have you on board

**CryptiK** · 07-23-2009, 06:57 AM

Yeah for sure, I need all the help I can get too heh. The ram you have coming should be nice.

**ci2kla** · 07-23-2009, 07:24 AM

With your RAM obsession, I think we will be asking you for help the coming weeks :p

hes not as obsessed as i am

i got a set of mushkin with d9gtr commin in soon

**CryptiK** · 07-26-2009, 04:13 AM

Been doing some initial testing and slowly learning my way around this board and DDR3.

Here's some initial results anyway.None of the voltage are really tweaked for minimum required.

SPI32M @ 4GHz (533 x 7.5) / 852 MHz / 7-7-7-20 / PL8 / CT Moderate / DRT & SRC Disabled

SPI32M @ 563 FSB / 900 MHz / 8-8-8-24 / PL10

SPI32M @ 571 FSB / 913 MHz / 8-8-8-24 / PL10

Memtest Test #5 20 passes / 475 FSB / 950 MHz / 8-8-8-24 / Clock Twister Moderate / PL 8

**********************

SPI32M @ 4.275 GHz (475 x 9) / 950 MHz / 7-8-7-24 @ 1.75v / PL8 / CT moderate @ 1.40vNB

Everest @ 4.275 GHz (475 x 9) / 950 MHz / 7-8-7-24 @ 1.75v / PL8 CT moderate @ 1.40vNB

**CryptiK** · 07-27-2009, 02:15 AM

Improved things a little more.

SPI32M @ 4.275 GHz (475 x 9) / 950 MHz / 7-8-7-24 @ 1.75v / PL7 / CT moderate @ 1.40vNB

Everest @ 4.275 GHz (475 x 9) / 950 MHz / 7-8-7-24 @ 1.75v / PL7 / CT moderate @ 1.40vNB

**CryptiK** · 07-27-2009, 08:30 AM

Doing some more testing with the 2 x 2GB Corsair 1866 C7 Elpida's. I'm starting to really like this ram now I'm getting more of a feel for it. Same goes for the board, it's just incredible what this thing can do.

SPI32M @ 4GHz (571 x 7) / DDR3-1826 / 7-8-7-24 @ 1.70v / PL9 / CT Mod @ 1.37vNB

Everest @ 4GHz (571 x 7) / DDR3-1826 / 7-8-7-24 @ 1.70v / PL9 / CT Mod @ 1.37vNB

SPI32M @ 4.2GHz (600 x 7) / DDR3-1920MHz / 7-8-7-24 @ 1.75v / PL10 / CT Mod @ 1.41vNB

Everest @ 4.2GHz (600 x 7) / DDR3-1920MHz / 7-8-7-24 @ 1.75v / PL10 / CT Mod @ 1.41vNB

The 600 FSB SPI32M settings were first tested using memtest. Check out that reported bandwidth of 7566 MB/s! DDR3-1920 MHz @ 7-8-7-24 is not too bad either.

Memtest Test #5 / 10 passes / 600 FSB / DDR3-1920 MHz / 7-8-7-24 @ 1.75v / PL10 / CT Mod @ 1.41vNB

cryptik, you're going crazy with posts for this board now lol. does that mean you finally left the M2F thread? this is a much better board ya?

**zsamz_** · 07-27-2009, 06:03 PM

i'm tryin out 401 bios radaja lookin better for d9
@least it let me boot @ 2000mhz lol
here it is for u lazy boy http://st-gaming.co.uk/bastra_space/...0401.zip<br />

got to 1900 cas 8 but bandwidth not acceptable

**2chesapeakes** · 07-28-2009, 02:02 AM

Looking for some help with this. I have had two Rampage Extreme's and twice the cap behind the CPU socket has blown out. Both times I was running LN2. The board and CPU scaled fine up to 1.75 Vcore tried to go to the next step and when I went to save the settings the board shut down. Was able to get it to start one more time to save my screen shots to a thumb drive.
My setting:
CPU Vcore: 1.75 ok next step up no good
PLL: 1.63
VTT: 1.41-1.44
NB: 1.61
GTLs all auto
SB: 1.55
sb: 1.1
The fisrt time the boardtook out my E8600 and I beleive it did thesame this time. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Well my M2F is the board in my 24/7,work, etc system, and it's still going well, but I'm not benching with it anymore. I am definitely enjoying the REX a lot though.

From what I've read, these boards seem to be prone to failure with LN2 and many also take the cpu's with them when they go. How have you determined that the cap (the Fujitsu ML cap) behind the socket blew? Have you checked the fets for damage too?

Yes, REX user should not damage the Fujitsu. If they do, their REX'll messed up. Because of that I successfully modded my Apogee GTZ backplate for Fujitsu LOL!

**radaja** · 07-29-2009, 02:45 AM

i was getting pretty upset with my REX over the last week.
no matter what i tried it wouldnt boot 510fsb,i tried setting the ram at the lowest
setting,highest p-level,still no go.that all changed today.
i got my g.skill ddr3-2000's yesterday.thew them in and tried 9x500@4500 ddr-2000
using the 333strap 1:2 booted up and primed for an hour.so i tried 8x540@4320
ddr-1734 7-7-7-21 1t pl8 no problems at all.so i think my crappy old kit was to blame.
this weekend ill do some testing,really dont have the time during the week,working
10 hr shift and saturday,so sunday will have to do

i should have my ozc animal kit then too

**CryptiK** · 07-29-2009, 03:02 AM

Good to hear, I look forward to some results. I would also like some 2 x 1GB micron sticks to play with.

**Leeghoofd** · 07-29-2009, 03:13 AM

Also when benching it's preferred to keep LLC off !! I can hardly believe you smoked 2 in a row, must be something terribly wrong

**radaja** · 07-29-2009, 03:16 AM

well heres a quick one,not stable im sure,but i dont have time this morning.
im just glad im able to do above 510fsb now,after reading zsamz and CryptiK
being able to run 600fsb right out of the gate,i though oh no its the MIIF all
over again for me.i had lots of problems from the get go with that board.
but now its all good,im a happy camper.

8x560@4480 ddr3-1792MHz 7-7-7-21 1t pl8

everest

**CryptiK** · 07-29-2009, 05:37 AM

Heh, that would have been very unfortunate. You had truly bad luck with your M2F's.

^Looking good there, DDR3 is very odd still for me and probably you too, but now I'm getting more used to it I'm starting to like it a lot. For the first couple of hours I was using my board, I was struggling to get more than a couple of settings to work. Now I have no idea how I was having so much trouble.

its weird 600 way way too easy
hey but @ least you broke 12k

btw i was primin @ 600

**radaja** · 07-29-2009, 05:14 PM

well now i got this new ram,i think 600fsb should be easy too.like i said this morning
i tried 540fsb-success/556fsb-success/and 560fsb-success.so now that im home
from work ill try 580fsb and 600fsb.just to see if it will do it.will post back

why is this? i thought LLC stabilizes the voltages and doesn't require as high in BIOS.
