why is this? i thought LLC stabilizes the voltages and doesn't require as high in BIOS.

i find its much more stable all around with LLC off on this board and requires less volts on load to be stable

It can stabilise voltages, BUT the strain on the PWM's and Samsung chip are enormous when benching.... hence why some users fried their mobo's by using LLC and high Vcore voltages... when going high voltages put it off

Hey guys,

I just added my latest results in the air (stock fan). My results are in low multiplier and FSB rates for now because these days are hot like hell man. I'll have got such nice results when I completed my watercooling setup soon.

fell asleep last night,so this morning went straight to 600fsb.
and zsamz your right too easy.



i know its not stable,but it will have to do
no work on saturday so ill have time to really have fun this weekend

Arthur,nice results

Nice work Arthur


Nice work Radaja. Only 1.24 Vtt too

Since it's 600 FSB short orthos run season, here's mine from the other night. I ran this after a SPI32 run at the same settings to see how stable the CPU actually was. I initially thought it had barely made it through the SPI32M run, I never expected it to make it through 10 mins of small FFT's.

10 mins orthos @ 4.2 GHz (600 x 7) / DDR3-1920 MHz / 7-8-7-24

[CryptiK]

Testing these 2 x 2GB Elpida's a little more.

SPI32M @3.94 GHz / 563 FSB / tRD 8 @ 1.47vNB / 900 MHz / 6-6-4-20 1T tRFC 60 @ 1.76vdimm






SPI32M @3997 MHz / 571 FSB / tRD 8 @ 1.47vNB / 913.6 MHz / 6-7-4-20 1T tRFC 60 @ 1.76vdimm -- So close to sub 11min @ < 4GHz!






SPI32M @ 4.25GHz / 500 FSB / PL8 pullins 1+2 / 1000 MHz / 7-8-7-24 1T tRFC 72 @ 1.72v

heres what i got this morning.im struggling to get pl8 to boot.i dont
understand why,i booted fine at 600fsb pl8 before.
7.5x600@4499 ddr1921 cl8 pl9 1T

everest

[CryptiK]

Looking good, perhaps your ram/cpu skews or ram timings need adjusting a little to get it just right.

[radaja]

CryptiK,thanks.yea thats what im thinking too.ill keep working on it.

8x563@4504 ddr1800 cl7 pl8 1T


everest



CryptiK,which memory slots are you using?the white or blue?
ive got mine in the blue,but i read earlier in this thread that some were
saying the white are better.but im not sure if i read it right and cant seem
to be able to find it now.thanks

[zsamz_]

my blue slot are better

what what best bios guys for micron lol

[radaja]

i tried 1202 and 403 but it wouldnt boot at 600fsb anymore so i went back to 501.
im still trying to find out for sure what IC's these g.skill's have.F3--16000CL9D-2GBPI-B?

[CryptiK]

CryptiK,thanks.yea thats what im thinking too.ill keep working on it.

563 x 8 and 1800 C7 looks good for 24/7 (if this is your 24/7 board of course).

I use the white slots, I switched to them after having some initial difficulty and I did not test the blue slots as rigorously. Apparently the white slots (channel B) has been electrically designed for better overclocking, and this is a common theme with X48 boards. As different ram kits behave differently, I think its a matter of 'what works best' for a particular kit.

It probably as I said above depends on the particular ram kit/IC type. I heard BIOS 0403 was good for micron.

i tried 1202 and 403 but it wouldnt boot at 600fsb anymore so i went back to 501.
im still trying to find out for sure what IC's these g.skill's have.F3--16000CL9D-2GBPI-B?

I'm using 1104, and no problems booting at 600 FSB here. No idea what those G.Skills have, could be KPT/GTS/HCF0 maybe something else. I dont think GSKill always use the same IC for a particular kit anyway. It depends how they behave.

I think that PI-Black should be Samsung HCF0 ICs.

[PatRaceTin]

hi CryptiK Orthos need to set to Priority 9 or 10 !!! not Priority 1

What´s the different?

[radaja]

got my OZC animal kit today.

ci2kla,thanks ,do you know if these scale with voltage(samsung)?

[zsamz_]

after many tests i concluded 403 is really best with micron
got me to 1900 cas8
on another note my brand new pc3-14400 mushkins are duds cant even run stock withought errors
no wonder they couldnt do 2k
gl with the animals radaja

Sorry I don't have much information Samsung HCF0s but many other power users has tested it and they generally have good comments on this IC. It can achieve high frequencies with lower voltages than Micron D9 based kits but it's not as Voltage Sensitive as the Microns. Usually they max out @ 2.2v while Microns can do higher with ultra high voltage like 2.4v+ (D9GTS). Also this kits don't like tight timings much.

[radaja]

ci2kla,thanks for the info.

zsamz,thanks.and sorry to hear about you mushkin's

Update,well i tried my animals,at first i tried the white slots and had no luck
couldnt get them to boot while OC'ing them.threw them in the blue and they work great.
so i guess they like the blue slots.

[Think]

Well I suppose this board is FUBAR.

Had a storm today but the pc was hooked up to and APC 1000. After the power returned, the board will no longer post.

Tried:

• Different videocard
• shorted the powersupply and it works by turning on the fans
• removed all but 1 stick of ram
• disconnect everything except for one harddrive
• tried jumper 2, 3 bios flashback
• removed battery.

Did not try another powersupply since I would have to buy one.

Result

Rampage extreme logo just flashes on and off, no boot sequence whatsoever.

try your psu in another system
if its not your psu might be the cpu
i think its the psu
i lost a psu recently to power commin back suddenly

Just purchased a new enermax psu and same problem. You really think it could be the cpu?

you need to test can be both
you must have a spare board lyin around
power surges are a ed up thing you never know what they gonna kill
i got 2 powerbars protectin my main rig

Well, I tried different videocard, ram, cpu, psu. Unplugged everything on the board and no go so I've rma'd it and hopefully I can get it back before I come back from vacation. Hope the video card survived...that would be a &&&ch.

Thx.

cross your fingers
asus has a habit of just resendin board as fixed while doin nothin to it
meanwhile try gettin the cpu tested
