How to set up GTL Ref Values for 45nm & 65nm

[truehighroller]

Thought of that before i even put the chip in.

Yesterday i basically went from 1.2 vtt to 1.4 vtt trying pretty much all the GTL values (0.6 to 0.75 basically) for each vtt voltage increment.

I eventually just gave upon the finesse approach as no combination was working.

1.42 vtt with auto GTLs seems stable @ 450, but even going to 1.44 does not gain anything; maybe 452 at most; more testing needed.

Seems this board really hates anything over 450, at least for stability.

I can boot way higher, but anything over 450 won't pass IBT or P95 Blend/Large.

What CME option are you set to? I noticed with mine set to performance or compatible that I was getting random errors. Just a thought. Maybe you should try 0803 BIOS revision and see if your issues go away. It could also be you already jacked your gtl settings so high for awhile that maybe now your chip doesn't like lower settings any more. Just a guess as well. Mine will not run lower then what it is set to now and I read some where that after awhile per Intel that if you run higher settings that your chip will no longer like the lower settings recomended by Intel.
