DFI UT X58-T3EH8 continued - Part 2

Yeah there can be variations between boards too - i'd double check real multimeter read voltages for CPU VTT, vdimm etc too - some boards might not be spot on (depends on psu used too) http://i4memory.com/f80/dfi-ut-x58-t...rements-16683/

thanks for the suggestion, eva2000.

Is there any list with BsoD's description related to X58 OC?

anyone experience this?

CPU VTT 1.21 (bios),
on the old board i needed to use at least 1.34-1.36 for 12GB RAM, uncore 18x and 1T...

Finally, your new board starts to look like my old board. I have got the first DFI-batch (R.A51) and don't need more than VVT=1.21 (BIOS) either. But as Eva is saying, the actual VVT can can be higher.

My board has a kind of "intelligent VVT-regulator", and adjusts the VVT according to the application, and can go up to 1.26v (depending on the load, and the software you using to read it.

I don't have a multimeter and never checked it but it would be interesting to see how high the "real" VVT goes. I always thought that the CPU-batch would play the most important role on VVT, and your finding is new and interesting.

My mobo has this problem too, but 'cause of its positive drop, the lowest vtt is 1.24v

I wouldn't call it a problem, because it is actually helping to keep my voltages at lowest for 24/7 use. Actually I'm happy for this 'positive drop', because it works very consistence and I have never seen it "miss" or drop irregularly. It adjusts/regulates the VVT as needed without cosing instability.

When It passes HyperPi 32M @4.2(210x20) with only 1.25v VVT, then how can I (or you) dare to call it a "problem"?

This 'positive drop' wasn't working on my old i7 920 C0, the VVT would idle at 1.32v and go up to 1.34v under load (with 1.34v BIOS set). But my w3520 idles at 1.23v and gos up to 1,24v under load, but it is "intelligent enough" to raise the VVT to 1,26v under "really demanding loads" like Linx and Hyperpi 32M.

But i REALLY have a positive drop, isn't only a low vtt problem. ALL my voltages are positive dropped + 0,03v

hello , i recntly upgraded to DFI UT X58-T3EH8 from evga classified e-760 cause i burned it

after i finished install all the components i turn on the pc sec later it shut downs ... after 2 sec ... it turn on and sec later shut downs ... and it goes on and on in an endless loop ...

i think when my evga classified burned it take with it the cpu and mybe the memory sticks ...

i tried turning it on without the memory sticks and got the same result with the shut downs ...

what you all think ... what can be the reason?

What is the recommended BIOS version for the JR X58-T3H6?

Need to fix the issue where reboot wont load windows, and stuck multipliers in Win7.

For stucked multi the 0724 beta BIOS should have fixed it.

Thanks mate. Just flashed to 0701 and I can confirm that didnt fix anything.

**Sam_oslo** · 08-10-2009, 04:58 PM

Good job

, aren't these sticks just amazing?

I didn't have much time to play, but got some good HyperPi32M actions over 21k

@4.01GHZ(211x19) 1.15v

VVT = 1.32/1.34v (BIOS/Load)
NB Core = 1.13/1.12v

Corsair XMS3 1600MHz CL7 @2110MHZ 9-10-9-23 1T HypePi32M stable

What are the 2 jumpers at the top corner of the cpu socket for?

no one knows.. just leave them alone

**Praz** · 08-12-2009, 08:14 AM

As Eva has said no need to change the jumpers. They set the PWM IC operating frequency. At default the ICs operatate at the frequency spec'd by Volterra. The jumpers are there for CPU load testing in the lab and probably should have been removed for the retail boards.

**Razer(x)** · 08-12-2009, 03:54 PM

Ok so, my problem is the cpu, i have to change it, but i have no money

if you don't care about manners, just kill it and RMA...

You're still fighting this thing? Whats wrong now, what did I miss

**Bo_Fox** · 08-12-2009, 07:00 PM

Hmm, never noticed the jumper! Perhaps I'll be the first to play around with them? Nah, just kidding!

Maybe emailing DFI about it would result in an answer, if nobody has the balls to play around with them?

only when you get HARD

**Peen** · 08-13-2009, 03:23 PM

Guys I have a major problem and I can't seem to find out why!!

I'll have it perfectly stable, and I start thinking to myself...if it's stable I can either...

A) Lower Voltages
B) Overclock it moar!
C) Your mom

Why can't I just leave things alone when its stable haha

Sure man. I've found that with 4gb everything works fine, but i have problems with 6gb, it's a cpu problem
