DFI UT X58-T3EH8 continued - Part 2

[loonym]

I cant get this board stable with my I7 920 D0 for the life of me.

1.21 vcore (Proven stable at 1.2)
1.45 cpu vtt
1.08 nb voltage
1.65 dram voltage.

What else can I do?

What do your timings look like? I could be way off base here but I've noticed that a couple of my mem kits are very sensitive to voltage in this board. One in particular, some gskill pi 1600, gets weird with 1.65 but if I go to 1.635 they are solid.

I have one of these mobos. I have not tweaked the bios yet. Running it at 175x91 with a 920 C0 chip. I need to speed it up or see about dropping the voltage on the cpu.

If that's the 920 I sent you, while it will overclock pretty nicely, it really isn't going to use low volts like some. Iir, temps should be reasonable even using 1.45v or more though. I had pretty much decided that all my C0's were 3.8-3.9 crunchers and no cherries. I didn't really do a hell of a lot better with the batch of D0 xeons I bought to replace them. I'm traditionally very unlucky when it comes to buying cpu.

Finished installing my UT T3H8, did some quick runs to get the hang of this board. It is my first DFI board, and my results have not been very good yet, but once I get the hang of it, should be decent.
First I tried for max Ghz, 4.9.. nearly.

Then tried 32M, no windows tweaks, ect.
Saved this 32M run, and took off for work, lol I guess you will have to guess the Ghz. ROFL..

Trying to get Prime 95 stable now, has not gone well so far... hopefully I will get the hang of the board soon.

Yes it is the one that I got from you. Still on the bios that it came with. Have not played with it much. Got it crunching stable and let it go.

Very nice. That was the pick of the bunch just because

Keep in mind as you increase past 3.6-3.7 it may need substantially more volts. I had the feeling all along, and still do, that that's a solid 4ghz cpu.
