took me 3 weeks to fully stablize it but now it 100% stable

For you extreme overclockers....something better than AS5 !!!

I would like to know, ehich one is for you the last stand for vcore on a quad for 24/7 on air??

[radaja]

I never posted my results of my Q9650 @450x9, well, here it is.

very nice

[xzulu]

Thanks radaja! Thanks to Sergio for helping me make the transition from the M2F to the UD3R!

[radaja]

yea i did the exact same thing.only it was by accident.i went from the P5Q-deluxe,in hopes of something better(i thought if it cost more it must be better)so i got the M2F.but i died and as luck would have the day newegg first got and posted the UD3P for sale i was looking for a cheap board to hold me over till my M2F got back from RMA.and what a surprise these boards turned out to be.
half the price and two or three times the performance.anyways your in good company here.a lot of happy and helpful members here to help out,but it looks like your doing great as is
keep us updated on your 9650-UD3R endeavours
looking good already

Thanks mate! Yeah, I was surprised what this board could do compared to the M2F. With the UD3R lower voltages needed compared to the M2F and especially the damn GTL Ref on the M2F, that was a pain! LOL!

If that doesnt work try going up one notch on your MCH Reference to .890
If that doesnt work bump the MCH ref back to .850 and try going up a couple notches on your CPU Vcore. If it still fails, set everything back to stock and open prime and let it run a couple hours. If your 1066mhz ram fails at 1066mhz with no overclock then you know the problem. Or just run memtest.

I have 3-45nm quads and all will do 4.0ghz on less than 1.30v vcore (bios), I think it is your settings or like you said, your Ram
Under Advanced BIOS settings, at the bottom. Set "Init Display First" to PEG, default is PCI. Maybe nothing but on my GTX I freeze or crash if that is set to PCI not PEG.

[radaja]

well i am so damn happy with my new E8400 EO vid 1.23.now that i got another kit of cellshock pc8000 im having more fun and more options.
i decided to see what the lowest vcore i could use at 9x445@4005 and it turns out that i can drop it down two notches below default vcore
and the cellshock at almost ddr1200 with only 2.08vdimm
so heres 9x445@4005 with 1.21 bios/1.18 cpuz load ddr1186 w/2.08v



i just tried 450x9@4050 w/1.18v and ddr1200 w.2.08v
and it's priming just fine



THIS CPU ROCKS

Thanks radaja! Thanks to Sergio for helping me make the transition from the M2F to the UD3R!

im happy your are happy mate

@Sergio

Yes, you made me happy! LOL!

@Sergio
Yes, you made me happy! LOL!

[xzulu]

Did a little more testing now with IBT....

[xzulu]

I tried running my MCH lower, 1.38v and upped my vtt to 1.28v. But i got an error, I guess I need 1.40v MCH....

[andressergio]

yes on my system i have to go for 1,4MCH as im always over 1170Mhz with the Gskill on Turbo Profile, if i remember you are on turbo profile also mate, maybe it can handle it good if you go for standard, but with thight timmings it'll ask for more at least in my case...

cheers
Sergio

[radaja]

heres a couple of Pi runs with my new cellshocks.

1m Pi 9x500@4500 w/1.32v ddr1200 pl8 w/2.18v


32m Pi 9x500@4500 w/1.32v ddr1200 pl8 w/2.18v


1m Pi 9x512@4608 w/1.34v ddr1228 w/2.2v


32m Pi 9x512@4608 w/1.34v ddr1228 w/2.2v


1mPi 9x523 w1.36v


and finally 8.5x530@4500 w/1.34 ddr1272 w/2.24
all runs use basicly the same settings except vcore and vdimm and vMch/vtt


its nice to finally have a cpu that needs so little vcore.
i havent had to use more than 1.36v so far
when i get better cooling i'll be able to go 1.39v and see what
it really can do

[stw500]

@radaja

Please, could you put in your bios-settings in this Code when running your CPU with for example 4,5 Ghz? If you didnt set manually please put in auto or standard.

Thx & greatings...

and to go higher i just changed vtt/mch vcore/vdimm up a notch.

Just picked up an e8400 EO. Going to try my luck with a dual core on this board. 1.2375 vid, not a good start lol. Have an old CO 8400 with a 1.125vid with 2 stuck sensors, but a good clocker.

[radaja]

mine is 1.2375 vid oo.and is an awesome cpu.whats your batch#? mine is Q843A771
mine will do 4123GHz with default vcore,1.237. lets hope you got a good one too

[OC Nub]

Hey radaja, my batch # is Q843A900. Trying to figure out the reference voltages. priming at 4050 now.

[OC Nub]

Was wondering what percentage to use for MCH Ref. to vtt? Got a bsod a few minutes ago. Had the CPU REf set to normal and the MCH Ref set to .738 with VTT at 1.260v. Was trying 450x9. Maybe just bad settings but doesn't look like this is going to clock as well as yours.

[radaja]

mine likes 0.750 for vtt/1.28 or vtt1.20 mch ref 0.700.and cpu ref at 0.76 for vtt1.20
maybe try this

Going to try that now, Thanks. I do like the temps better than on my quad, hardly gets warm in orthos.
