Have dropped the multiplier to 8 to eliminate CPU issues and mem timing is loose at 9-9-9-28. Will post what I have later tonight but from memory I have tried Vcore is 1.375-1.395, LLC-DIS, VMCH 1.48-1.55, VTT 1.3, PLL 1.5 , VDIMM 1.94.

Will try EF's comments in red on Mike's earlier post tonight to see if that helps - thanks for those.

What is the common setting for DRAM Static Read Control, DRAM Dynamic Write Control and LLC ?
Disable both the controls if you want to overclock the board and increase stability. Enabling LLC reduces the VCore needed at idle, however at load as opposed to having VDroop where the VCore drops around 0.6V under load, you get a slight increase of VCore. I would recommend leaving this disabled and raising the voltage to compensate for the VDroop, as people have had problems with LLC in the past.

Nice results! how stable are those? prime? orthos? OCCT? screenshot?
And I wonder wonder where you got that idea in your sig! Glad we both agree on the crappyness of the Striker II Extreme.
Also what is this "new creed BIOS"? and which version are you using?

Very nice!

Great to see more people are posting their results.

Here's something to get you quad users started.


FSB 450
CPU Ratio 8.0
Skews AUTO
Strap 266
DRAM frequency 1803
Command Rate 1N
DRAM Timing Manual
CL 7-6-5-18
All other DRAM settings AUTO
Read/Write control Disable
Clock Twister Moderate
Transaction Booster Manual
Performance Level 6

Voltages as in BIOS:
VCore 1.34375
LLC Disabled
CPU PLL 1.51106
FSB termination 1.31216
All GTL AUTO
Northbridge 1.44472
VDIMM 1.98806
Vref AUTO
Southbridge 1.5 1.51106
Southbridge 1.05 1.06039

Spread Spec Disabled

This settings uses the parts in my signiture, and have been extensively tested, with minimum stable voltage + a slight overhead margin for insurance.

Note that I am using watercooling, so the voltage I need only applies to watercooling the NB and CPU. Aircooling may require a significant increase in voltage to acheve the same stable settings due to heat. With larger amount of RAM you man need to additionally raise the VMCH.

Happy clockin' !
