UnOfficial Asus Rampage II Extreme Thread

[blaxtr3m3]

Must admit I'm starting to get a bit annoyed with the vdroop on this board. With load-line cali disabled I put 1.33vcore in bios, it shows as 1.3 at idle. Bit too high idle volt, since my clock is stable at 1.28 full load, although I can live with that. But during full load it drops even further down to 1.26... Thus making my system unstable. I turn up the bios volt quite a few steps to actually hit 1.28 during full load, but then my idle skyrockets.

So, I enable load-line instead and set the volt to 1.28ish, My idle stays at 1.26, but during full load my volt get boosted to in between 1.31 and 1.32. Which is not needed, thats just extra heat for an already hot CPU.
I set my volt to 1.26, full load jumps to 1.29-1.3. Good enough, but then my Idle volt drops too low, and my system crashes in between full load and idle. Sighs :P
Gonna try another bios than 1504, hopefully I find something less annoying :>

What temps r u getting? on what clock? what cooling r u using?

What temps r u getting? on what clock? what cooling r u using?

Thats on a noctuau12p and at the evening when the temps are falling. Midday I can easily push 85c on max load. 4.2ghz clock. HT on.
It's not that its impossible for me to run at 4.2ghz or higher, it's just annoying that I'll either have to settle with a high load vcore or a high Idle vcore.
