You remember this post Celshock 14400 ddr3 died
Well Friday morning got the new kit Cellshock Blue Guess what , one of them's dead. Another 8~9 days

What were the conditions they were running under when it occurred? Voltage, timings etc?

[Supershanks]

As i say got them friday dropped them in, tried a quick 5 minute oc 1800 no real sress only +0.35, din't make it and I had a lot on so , just stuck them on stock , which believe it or not is jdec 1066 for the night. Tried in earnest with them yesterday. Tried a whole raft of settings based at 1st on my old set then with VDIMM: 1.80V = 1775mhz, VDIMM: 1.84V = 1810mhz, VDIMM: 1.90V = 1870mhz
from OC Report: Cellshock DDR3 1866 BLUE D9JNL
using the memset timings & voltage shown , also +0.10v extra
Was getting a post oiccasionally , but then it would rapidly lose stability with bsod or freaaze, Was freezing even at post screen on occasion.

I took a module out & it soared away , no worries. Swapped over to other module, won't post.

What a supreme bummer. That was a very unaggressive effort to have 1 fail so quickly.

Exactly , I was looking forward to getting a feel for them & then pushing on past rated 1866. So i'm baack to 1gb of 1333mhz

Seriously thinking of 2GB OCZ DDR3 PC3-16000 2000MHz Platinum EB Enhanced which I think are samsung, then flogging my blues if the ocz deliver, not sure

DARN!...that is the total pits with new memory dying on you like that!...it just goes to show you that even the best maker has bad luck with those micron modules.

[Supershanks]

Yep it seems that these micron chips follow the tradition of DDR2, they die young
Wouldn't mind if they'd had some chance to perform though

[Ace-a-Rue]

it happened to me on Corsair DDR2 modules with micron chips...one stick failed within a couple of hours at a higher vdimm.

Hi guys

I have a little problem with my quadcore Q9450

See if you can tell from this printscreen, how good this cpu is: Its at 3.2ghz 1.134v


yep, I have a bad core.
Three of them prime95 up to 18hours, no problem. The one with 64ºc Only primes 3 or 4 hours. If I feed him less, He fails quickly. If I feed him more, He fails quickly too.

Is there a way to Tune one core differently? GLT perhaps?

[Supershanks]

Your temps are overstated for a start by 10C see RealTemp
or Update Coretemp TJMax so it's right

GLt tuning may work see 20) GTLREF

luck

Supershanks and I were discussing where to readout MCH voltage...he thought that the readout for MCH could be measured from this Mosfet which is just on the backside of the NB bolt that holds the heatsink firmly over the chipset...this is between the I/O back panel and the NB heatsink

after setting all voltages to normal, i read with my DMM from the right hand post, which SS said was MCH voltage...i found it to be the "FSB" voltage, at least on my board...baseline or normal voltage was around 1.11v....and, it responded as i raised the FSB voltage add.

the middle post voltage actually moved up as i increased Vdimm...i had a slight variation from the Vdimm voltage reading over by the DIMM slots, but it definitely moved up and down as i adjusted the Vdimm...baseline or normal was around 1.53v.

new bios for x48t-dq6 after f5d ??

[Ace-a-Rue]

none that i heard about.

[Supershanks]

Got a new baby

[loonym]

I had to know you were going to when you were drooling all over that bios

[Ace-a-Rue]

Got a new baby

Woooooo!...very nice that gigabyte gave you a sample to show off...hmmmm...coming up in the world!

[Clunk]

We have to call him Sir now, or he doesn't acknowledge us peasants

It does look a nice board though, I'm interested to see how that cooling does

[Supershanks]

yes my screen was in a right state
cheers Ace
Oh and Clunk

figuratively, we peasants, have to take a back seat!

[Supershanks]

he's misspelt sir he means cur

[Ace-a-Rue]

he's misspelt sir he means cur

i think he meant "Sir Mongrel"

[NinjaZX6R]

Can anyone give me a quick heads up as to whether or not you can mount a Tuniq Tower on this board with that back-cooling on there? I've heard the story go both ways. Can someone clarify? Thanks a bunch.

-Collin-

[Ace-a-Rue]

i have a TRUE heatsink mounted on mine with a 120 x 38 MM fan which makes it like a Tuniq and there are no problems with any orientation...i would recommned removing the crazy cool back plate but loonym left the back plate on and he used store bought bolts to mount his TRUE heatsink....i believe he talks about it in this thread...start looking around page 4 and then go forward.

EDIT:..found the post and it was far away from page four!
