how do you manually set pl level? is there a way besides changing that one setting from turbo to extreme?

545 seems stable at 1.22cpu term and 1.26nb but its pl 11 lol.. help !

here are some results with my ud3r.....im selling this e8400 pm me if you want it

**fatguy1992** · 01-17-2009, 11:45 PM

Why are u selling ur E8400?

im just thinking of going quad or maybe i7 got a few p4,s lying around to hold me over till i decide what im doing....remember those 2 sticks of cellshocks i was selling..ask radaja about em he put em side by side with his other 2 sticks cellshocks on his ud3p and all 4 sticks booted to 1200mhz with out any change of the bios......i only sell good stuff just like this cpu i can give any one the bios settings i used on my ud3r and this bad boy will fire up at 4.45 ghz at 3.44 volts on any ud3r or p...and with only 3.44.v theres more overclocking head room left in this chip and could be good for bench marking

**fatguy1992** · 01-18-2009, 12:07 AM

I'd buy ur E8400 but...

I have a E8500 on its way (with my phase change) and I had to borrow the money for that so...

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).

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.

You're welcome and thanks for the info.

i personally never think these UD3P/R boards overvolt the vdimm settings so i never checked it with a DMM, but this mostly because one of my friend has already checked it and told me back when we first got our first boards.

as for vdimm voltage that are reported by software, which i use Everest's or ET6's HW monitor,
one of my UD3R has, for example, if i set vdimm 2.28V at bios i will see during idle in Windows 2.26xxV,
but my another UD3R will be 2.30V in Windows. and since i believe the boards don't overvolt the vdimm settings i really don't concern much on the real vdimm voltage value.

anyways, i'm still interested to know about the G.Skill 9600 PI kit under this UD3P or R board,
can you please check and see if you can overclock this ram kit to DDR1200 and using its rated voltage spec (or lower) and if possible, please try it all, at 375fsb, 400fsb, 450fsb and 480fsb?

**Simps** · 01-18-2009, 05:35 AM

I just woke up, stop priming and got this on my Maximus II Formula.
Anyway, can some of you guys with quads help on the comparison?

quadcore 500FSB
7h prime blend + 20 IBT loops on max stress

The following settings give me a BSOD before entering Windows:

I am using BIOS F7c
Now, if I just change the the FSB to 400 and manualy enter my RAM timings and keep everything else on auto. I can boot into Windows and am prime stable for 3 hours...?

thanks, i ran 545 for 8 hours blend, at 11 which was auto'd, set it to 9 on both dimms and its flying again in blend

will run it tonight at pl 9, 1.26 nb and 1.22vtt

I have ordered a few motherboards 'open-box'. The only problem with openbox boards is sometimes you get an early revision of the boards. Does this board have any early revisions, and were they terrible? i'll only save $40 bux; but hey, $40 bux is $40 bux.Ive always had good luck; but I would hate to get a crappy overclocker or something like that.
I will be getting a q9650 to put on it. I would appreciate any feedback. Thanks

Has anyone tried the UD3 with a 9800GX2? If so, please can they post up 3DM03 screenies with score breakdowns and clockspeeds?

Ideally around 4GHz 720/1100. I can interpolate the scores a bit if they're close to those levels.

Cheers!

@Simps

Yesterday I gave 500FSB a go, but I couldn't get it to load Windows

I'v run 515FSB before, so I don't know what setting I had wrong, but i'll give it another go in a few hours when I wake up.

**fatguy1992** · 01-18-2009, 12:09 PM

I was just running Intel Burn test at 3.6GHz (400x9) and my NB temp was 65C, is that to high?

About the 500FSB not booting, it is probably related to:

mem speed (lack of vdimm)
strap
vPLL
vFSB (vtt)
vNB

About 65C NB, yes I think it is hot. Try to add a fan to the NB heatsink. Don't let it run passive. What was your vNB for that?

@ pangingIII ,

I tried the settings and I was able to boot into windows. First time since trying to go to 4GHz, but it BSOD after about 5 min in Prime 95. Looks like this might be teh right path. Any other suggestions?

Thanks for your help,
-Jason

i like to suggest you to always post your letest bios setting if you want to get done with the basic of this particular overclock quicker.

I got 500FSB to run, but it wasn't stable. Turns out my references weren't right. I think if I tweak them a bit more it would be stable.

The vNB was only 1.2v for the 65C temps. I can't add a fan to my NB cause my IFX-14 is in the way

. But when I get my phase change there will be enough room for a 12cm fan

.

I hope you can do 500FSB stable. And please post pics with stress tests, volts required to do it on your UD3P, and temps. Like those pics I posted.

I see you rocking arround with that phase unit on your quad

You will have a blast!

1.2vNB and 65C NB temp is a NO NO. You should really try to add a fan there.

We are on page55 of the thread, and there is an option to go to page 56 already!
Crazy forum bugs...

**fatguy1992** · 01-18-2009, 01:25 PM

Yeah i'm really looking forward to getting my phase change.

Also yeah that forum glitch seems to happen quite a bit in this thread

.

I'll see today if I can add a 92mm fan some how.
