You could be right, except none of the other boards I have here exhibit this issue. Once the cpu draws a wee bit over 165a, the "system" process will load up one core. As you breach 165a, the system process will use a full core, preventing Prime from running 100% on all four cores.Originally Posted by safan80
Now, as I said earlier, you must read before you post...I clearly stated that my G0 DOES NOT have the same issue at the same voltage. My B3, however, does show the behavior GAR descibed weeks ago...at a LOWER voltage than his cpu does. It's another user here that has the issue at the same voltage.
BTW, before you claim it's the board sample I got, I have 2 boards, and RMA'ed one already. Each of the three showed the same behavior w/ the B3...my G0 does not show this all the way up to 1.725v, real, but @ 1.7375 it does...
My dualcore doesn't cause this at all.
About your "user error" claim...if such was the case, changing cpu but not changing settings would exhibit the same behavior....as all that a user can do is change settings in bios.
However, against your opinion, this is not the case. @ 1.525, 400x9, all other settings on auto besides setting FSB strap to 333mhz, and ram to 2.1v...B3 shows it, B2 E6600 does not, G0 does not.
So if it my error, then what error is this that we(GAR and I) are both making? If you could explain how you came to this conclusion, maybe we could fix the error?
Other than simply blaming it on me, how about some contructive criticism so others here may benefit? Simply stating that you do not experience the problem does not mean there is no issue...nor can you deny the fact that each cpu is different, so how your cpu performs on this board is NOT how everyone's cpu will behave...
Please feel free to look back a few pages at my settings for 450x8, and tell me where I went wrong...maybe it would help others...
