ASUS Striker II Extreme

[tekjunkie]

I finally think I got my Gskills working on this board. The problem before could have been due to more vdimm voltage that it was necessary(was 1.92v now 1.9v). But, I still have to prime though for atleast 10 hours to declare it uber stable.



This is with 1.335 vcore with LLC disabled.

Hi guys,
I have a SIIE, actually its my fourth but anyway. Now i continue to read about all the problems and difficulties to get the board stabile.
But since i got the last RMA i can easely set the FSB to 460MHz with the timings at 7-6-6-16 CR1 (Using 2GB Corsairs, 2.00V). If i use my OCz 2x2GB 1600EB i can go to about 1810MHz 8-7-7-20 CR2(1,92V) before it goes
The CPU is at 4370MHz for 24/7(bench tested @4,6-4,7GHz). Everything is Prime, OCCT and 3DM stabile. Well to be honest i´ve just run prime for 8h(how long do one need to run prime before the system can be considerd stabile?).
Now i do have some difficulties to push the FSB higher. If i do the board needs to be reset. So 460 is the current stabile maximum that i´ve reached.
The rig is the one in my Sig.

LLC enabled
My CPU likes voltages...
CPU 1,49V (It is high but still the temps under prime max out at 51C, so its rather fine i guess)
PLL 1,6
VTT 1,3
NB 1,68
SB 1,55
0 -29
1 -24
2 -24
3 -29
NB ref +30

P1-P1 Enabled
VDIMM 2,00V (For my corsairs)

What do you guys think of this? And do you have any ideas how to go beyond FSB 460Mhz?

Cheers friends

it says it failed two times....

Yep, it does. But for what it's worth, when I had my Qx9650 on, it would pass prime for 10 hours , but it would fail the burn test. But I guess it's a moot point now since I am now both Intel burn test stable and prime stable for 8 hours. I just had to up the vcore a notch. Now I can move on to find a new home for my Qx9650(deciding between rampage extreme and the 790i FTW).

Hi chaps,

Can anybody point me in the right direction ie bios settings to get following spec to 3.4 ghz on air plz

Well thank you sir
Should I say this improves memory overclocking or enhances memory compatibility? Hmmm

About time, I can't wait to test it.

Will test it soon...

What is NVMM 4.083.38?
I have big problem with this memory

According to pmp
Nvidia Memory Module
Thats what takes care of the RAM...

If I am learning about the ASUS file names this bios must be a beta, is that correct?

bios 1103 is the first bios that will not let my memory (Corsair Dominator DDR3 1800) boot at stock settings? not sure what they changed but memory will not even post @ 1800 mhz @ 7-7-7-20 2t settings and it did with all previous bios.

Hi! I have q6600 and Team Xtreem PC3 12800 DDR3 1600MHz CL7 (2*1GB). Somebody help me how made stabile pc. I try with every bios.

Hi! I have q6600 and Team Xtreem PC3 12800 DDR3 1600MHz CL7 (2*1GB). Somebody help me how made stabile pc. I try with every bios.

Please post us your complete system specifications as well as what voltages you are running. Are you having trouble getting the system stable at default clocks or overclocked values?

Guys, got a new build here with an S2E (again).
One small problem: After a fresh Vista 64 install onto a 2x300GB Verlociraptor Raid 0 it keeps saying "Raid error while writing to drive X" in windows. Yes, Windows is working fine but it keeps popping up, like a balloon tip. Sometimes it's drive A, sometimes drive B. As far as I can tell, there is nothing wrong with the array, Win works fine, I can install and run anything, it's also very quick in response.

So I checked the drives with mHDD and that WD tool, both say the drives are fine. Using latest official bios (1004 or something) and no OC yet. This started after I installed the NV chipset driver v. 15.17 I think (obviously this was the first thing I did after the 1st Windows boot).

[Deathspine]

I too have consitently been getting an error message about a Raid failure. And like you there is no problem with the drives. In the past two months I had one problem with the drives but other then that is like a false alarm. I suspect it may be driver related as even Nvidia control panel reports the drives as heathly after each raid failure message. I have messed with voltages and bios setting without effect. The machine has been stable with mild overclock but I have spent days trying to "stablize" the system from the raid failure message without success. I have now just learned to ignore the message and just wait for new drives in hope of a fix.

Hi all....been lurking here for quite some time....thought I was finally getting close to 450 x 9 for crunching 24/7 (well, minus a few hours of gaming here and there)....finally got memtest 2.01 to actually make it through a few passes by actually lowering my NB from 1.46 to 1.36 (in BIOS), but Prime still fails....froze after 4 hours....can't crunch WCG without freezing (haven't tried in a while though).

System Info:
E3110 (will do 450 x 9 if I leave the mem at 1600 7-6-6-20-2T which was stock timings when I bought them back in April - mfg's specs have since changed - OCZ 1600EB4GK)
Caseless
Fans over ram and NB
Fans also blowing across
TRUE 120 push-pull
Vista Ultimate x64

Settings in BIOS - 1002 non-beta (board overvolts almost everything I think):
1780 QDR
1780 DDR3
Unlinked
8-8-8-24-2t-all sub-timings on auto
P1 - Enabled
P2 - Enabled
Vcore - 1.325
LLC - disabled
PLL - Auto
VTT - 1.3
Mem - 1.86
NB - 1.36 (was at 1.46, tried up to 1.5 in .02 steps....memtest failed or locked sooner with higher voltage)
SB - 1.55
NB GTL - +20mV
If it's not mentioned, it's auto.

It passes memtest at least 3 passes. It passes Winblows memory diagnostic tool (default....what are you guys using for settings for this?). Passes OCCT 1hr CPU, 1 hr MEM, 2 hr MIX. Passes 3dm06. Can't get it to Prime successfully. I seem to be able to game without trouble....mostly been sim-racing lately....not much of a load on the system though. Any suggestions for 24/7 stability/Prime stability? Thanks for any help.

Try increasing PLL a bit. 1.56 or 1.58

Thanks, I'll try it and prime overnight tonight.

I try everything to stable my pc. This forum is my last chance. After this I ..... Maybe somebody have this memory.
