DFI LP UT X58-T3EH8 - First bench, bios screens etc

[eva2000]

btw eva
to pass linx i had to pump more nb voltage compared to what was require for memtest hci 1000% and prime

interesting thanks for that info

I should have this board set up by the weekend along with the rest of the system, and hopefully will be able to post some figures and help out if maybe

Congrats and welcome to DFI X58 family

no problem

btw...my batch is: 3839A628

my batch : 3836A594

definitely 3836A are sweet batches!

I am about to get my system together and start playing with this board; from everything I read it sounds like I should leave all the jumpers alone (CPU_VTT and CPU FSB in particular). Can someone confirm that? And if everyone leaves them alone, what exactly are they for?

Also, I noticed that the 2/17 bios was officially released (today?). Should I go strait to 217 or stick with 114 for now?

-sfxs

just leave the jumpers alone you don't need to touch them... no idea why they exist though.

You mean 2/27 ? Haven't tried 2/27 and I skipped 1/14 but might go back to that bios to see how my Corsair Dominator GT 2000Mhz 7-8-7-20 and Kingston T1 HyperX 2000Mhz 8-8-8-24 kits do.

Question for MEM-gurus

Everest is reporting some very high MEM, L1 and L2 performance, which it is too good to be true.

Everest has been reporting "sane"-values most av the times, but somehow it is reporting some "insanely high"-values in some BCLK/multi. I tested the system with memtest right after the benchmark to see if there is something wrong, but it is passing. And everything else seams to be working fine, no symptoms for bug. Somehow Everest see much higher "CPU FSB" and "Memory bus speed" in some specific multi/BCLK-combinations(but not all of them)



Could somebody explain the reason for this?

had that happen to me once with 35k read in everest LOL, just everest being buggy i guess heh

Ok folks just finished testing beta 2/27. My oc doesn't work with 2/17 and 2/27 however 1/14 bios works just fine.

interesting, haven't tried 2/27 but one 2/17 right now and not getting much head way in oc'ing Corsair Dominator GTs, so might try 1/14 again and see.

What is the cause for 94 post code?
Im trying to run my 295 with my 24/7 overclock(+15h prime stable), but i cant load windows, and 94 appear in the post code display. No problems with stock settings and 295, and oc worked perfect with my 4870 1gb. Any idea?

no idea, but as mentioned tri lowgap of 2176-2560 and see.

is there something wrong with prime95 25.9
cause always has inconsistency

prime95 25.8 np.

no problem here but is that with small ffts or blend or both ? 32bit or 64bit OS with 32bit or 64bit prime95 ?

hmm found out the reason
apparently its because of 1N setting

eva i can run prime stable for the gt at chn interleave 6, rank interleave 4 2N
memtesthci/memtest 86 1N no issue but prime is no go..

any suggestion??
rank interleave and chan interleave settings?? for 1n??
or is there some other settings??

also the 1n setting prime95 25.8 pass
but fails in for prime95 25.9

i just leave interleaves on AUTO... i think it comes down to individual i7 cpu and individual kit of memory as to what it's 1T vs 2T max. Weird about different versions of prime95 though

tried on different bios version ?

Need some help guys with oc for some reason can't push beyond 3.8ghz

hi all,

I rma'd a ut-58-t3h8 recently because some wierd issues. When i connected a 120mm low rpm ledfan to the NB fanheader and have the bernsteinaudiomodule connected. The fan kept spinning after i turned off my computer. Yesterday i got a brand new board and i was verry happy about it... till i saw the exect same NB fan issue as my previous board. What can i do???? the board where both the same revision i think r58. the issue isn't there when i remove the bernsteinmodule. I have a video(mp4) so you can see my problem.....

thanx in advance.

this is the link of the video!!!!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P7FxKi3GL24

tried a different fan ?

Anyone in here has used both DFI and eVGA x58 boards. I am about to get one to play a little since the confidential has a long road to reach Greek market. Do u have any recommendations on which is a better board. I know that this is a DFI thread but i hope that you will reply to me honestly

Jody/3oh6 has both boards and he likes them both - i think for x58 boards DFI and EVGA are current leaders in terms of max bclk and memory clocks.

my multiplier 21 drops to 20 under load even though vista set to high performance ? is there a way to make it stay at 21 ?

set vr limit max = enabled as per info at http://i4memory.com/102537-post3.html
