i would like to know that too.also does anyone know whats the optimal way to set my pagefile system when using 8 gigs of ram?im not very well versed in the software side of things,but from what ive readthe paging file is space used on the harddrive as if it were ram, right. so if i have all this extra(task manager shows 1.34gigs being used)wouldnt it be better for my system to use the ram instead of the harddrive?isnt the ram faster?or do i have this all wrong? someone here must know this kind of stuff,i surely could use some advice on this issue. thank you

It's for the UD3R but will do.

[Supershanks]

Finally started to play with this board again but can't find anything on the volts measuring points, wanna take multimeter reading to calculate the references %.

Anyone wanna share this info? Maybe older Gigabyte boards share the same spots for vcore, vmch, vdimm etc?

was just about to give you link them i saw ^^^^^^^

[fatguy1992]

Should I disable for enable LLC?

When I enable it, I don't get any vdroop. So is there any down side to having LLC enabled?

I saw it mate well done! I still have one under the sleeve I'm benching AIR for now I need Duniek's mount to cool down this beast!

Damn, i was hoping you moved on to the i7,
Still i got to climb that 10 fsb hump... Hopefully tonight it will be cold enough,

Hi Guys,

Decided to bench on AIR with a normal priced air cooler (below$35) to keep peoples hopes up on this amazing cpu.

All low volts for people that want 24/7 use: 1.376vcore, 1.400vtt, 1.57pll, 1.40vnb, 1.20vsb (except ram that I needed more juice to keep tight timings and 5:6 strap).

Hi amwhitey,
The bios settings for these clocks are in the links below, for the ud3R, may give you a guide:-
E8600 4,160 8x520@2B 1,040Mhz 5-5-5-14
E8600 4,260 8x533@2B 1.066Mhz 5-5-5-14


luck

[systemviper]

I was able to run my Q9650 with the Xig direct touch at 4.5 @ 503 FSB and it was grerat, bvery stable, I never ran 11 hours of that stuff, but did all the futuremark stuff, and played a lot of games, I love this board adn CPU.... Q9650 and GIG UD3P

[amwhitey]

Thanks Supershanks for the settings. I'll give those a try and see what happens.

[pangingIII]

Jor3lBR,

i just took a peek at your bios setting (above) again, it seems to me that your DRAM setting is might be too tight?

did you try setting memory timing differently to see if you can lower the DIMM voltage down to may be 2.1-2.2v?

i don't have a Q9650 and the ram kit, or i would check it out myself, i'm just wondering is this overclock really need to use 2.3v on the dimms?

Yes it does if you want to use the 2:40 strap. Max Vmch that strap offers is 1.40vmch.

The rams are fine 2.3vdimm on BIOS = 2.25vdimm Real on Dmulti and 2.28vdimm shown on the ET6.

I would try PL7 1:1 strap latter to see if there is a big loss.

My OC testing begins isolation any ram errors, Config BIOS > Memtest DOS 2 passes > Memtest windows 150% > then I go to small fft's 8k and 10k if passes I will blend it above 3hrs.

Anything less on the Ram would give Memtest #7 errors. I will play with the other options too and see if I can discover anything else. Today I lowered the DRAM Terminations and References to below 50% a bit and could reduce vdimm a bit.

But if you have a 120mm fan you will be good till 2.4vdimm (probably 2.35 real).

[pangingIII]

you probably need to use more NB volts. i'm sure 2.3-2.35v is fine for the kit, but like i said i'm really wondering why it has to be this high.

for the DRAM settings itself, if you willing to try something new, there are a few different settings to try.
but since i don't have the hardware (especially the GSkill 9600 PI kit) i’ll have to let you discover them.

i would say try using XMP profile and leave the 2nd/3rd timings in the Advanced settings to Auto, don't set the Drive Strength Profile, diable the DDR Write Training on both Ch A & B
and then also try setting the Extreme Memory Profile to Auto, but set all timings manually in the bios.
i still use 700mv/700mv at the Advanced Clock Controls for my 500fsb, no Clock Skews settings everywhere, but my CPU is Q9300

2.3-2.35v in BIOS is not real panging as I said I got Digital Multimeter here that shows my Ram below 2.26v.

Dunno if you read my entire post but I'll say again MCH Voltage on 2:40 Strap is broken on all Gigabyte EP45 UD3 series boards and thus far there is no fix for it, I would need at least 1.5mch to lower vdimm to 2.1 or 2.2 but it's stuck on a max 1.440vmch because of the strap problem. If you put MCH voltage above 1.440 results in a no post condition...

Yes I just discovered that lowering the Dram Refs and Termination will allow you to lower Vdimm, I'll try few things you suggested too. Thanks.

[pangingIII]

you're right, sorry, i didn't read every words you wrote above.
it's new to me about the volt limitation problem on the NB, this due to i've never needed more than 1.40v, i'll try a more higher overclock on my quad and try using more NB volts and see for myself.

and btw, if i recall correctly, when i used XMP profile, i also set Turbo, and i didn't set tRD value in the bios.
for an example, on my 8800 PI kit's EPP timing (or XMP profile 1 in bios) it would be like 5-5-5-15 / 4-4-13-68-4 (this's a stock timing for DDR2-1066 as an EPP), and i used to use the timing to overclock the ram kit and it worked quite okay.
so all i did was to set the XMP at profile 1, set Turbo, and didn't set the rest of memory timing and tRD value at bios to auto.
Everest's memory read/write/copy was a little lower but not that lower, and i think Everest's L2 Cache read/write/copy was improved.

@Jor3lBR,

i like to update about the NB/MCH core voltage limitation, i just tested it right before i posted this.

this is a 1.50v MCH core, i set MCH ref. to "Normal"
after the CMOS is saved the system boots up fine in to Windows, i already try rebooting a couple time to see if it boots, it's seem okay so far to use MCH core voltage above the value you mentiond with 333 strap and 2.4B.



the rest of voltage and ref. settings in bios i just happen to picked all these values when i set the CMOS just to see if i could boot the system. this doesn't mean i can stable my Q9300 with this setting yet.
however, it seems to me that may be i will need less voltages than this since my 500x7 stable with quite less volts than this one.

Hello

I need some advice from u. I got some new RAM OCZ Reaper Rev. 3 1066 version. I want to run my RAM in PL9 but it doesn't boot with it. I tested 333 and 400 strap. I got 510 RAM clock run with 2,4b and PL9. But no Boot with 510 FSB 2,0B and PL9.
Here is a screen for higher FSB

Thanks for looking into this panging I tried everything but it's a still no go, probably I need 1Gb sticks it may be ram related.

Using 333/2:40b strap if I boot with NORMAL on MCH volts it will get in Windows with 1.1vmch and if I try to raise to 1.5vmch on ET6 = Instant OS Freeze. Again if I raise in increments to 1.440vmch everything will go fine but after that freeze in OS or no boot in DOS

If I boot on AUTO (Mch core) it will double boot and restore defaults, probably because it's trying to set it above 1.440mch.

Funny thing is nobody on Gigabyte seams to have an answer for this.

Oh before I forget I have 2 boards and tried this on like 4 boards. Versions 1.0rev and 1.1rev.

I will try 1Gb sticks and see.

Hello there your full bios template would easy our job here, just copy from last page my template and post it here between the CODE tags (click on the # on the toolbar and put the template in between the CODE tags).

2:40B strap requires a little more volts then normal and also PL9 will require more MCH volt and more Vdimm volts too.

Remember the voltage you set for Vdimm in bios is a little higher then reality. 2.3vdimm in BIOS = 2.26vdimm in reality from my measurments. So if your setting 2.15 will be more likely that your ram is receiving less then 2.1v.

You can also try settings the RAM References and Terminations one step lower then the default 50% it's set, so for 2.0vdimm Ram references and terminations shold be 1.0v I would lower that to the next step down.

Again send template so we can help you better. Template example:
Hit CODE (#) on toolbar and add the template:

Thanks Supershanks for the settings. I'll give those a try and see what happens.

I thought i'd cracked the ram stability when i got it running at 4,320 10x432 @2.66D 1,152 5-5-5-20 but if I try to use 2.00B or 2.00D above 1066 I'm still struggling to get stability. I'm using F6A Bios. Ram is Crucial Ballistix Single Sided 8500 5-5-5-14 2.0v CL1119H.DY.

Had no such issues with the EP45-Extreme , strange .
