***Asus Rampage III Extreme Owners Thread***

[SkOrPn]

I dont see any silk screening above ram slot 1 or any of the ram slots for that matter, but the sticker next to the ATX connector says A02. My board claims to be rev 2.0 if I remember correctly.

[KaRLiToS]

My G Skills Trident 2000Mhz PC3 16000 cannot run at 2000Mhz, is that normal?

[Leeghoofd]

And what have you tried to get them there ? QPI voltage how high ?

The silkscreening is just under the word EXTREME by the ram slots
Thanks again

you need 1.6v qpi for that




i poped in the 980x it sits 18c idle @ 4.5 n i hit 48c max in linx are my sensors off

[Splave]

must be unless you are blowing AC over it
what are you using for temps?

Karlitos no that is not normal, post up your voltage settings

Ahh, ok it clearly says "Rev. 1.04G"

Check out my 2000MHz memory 24/7 settings for hot summer days
Hope it might help.

My G Skills Trident 2000Mhz PC3 16000 cannot run at 2000Mhz, is that normal?

No, but I found a solution
DRAM Timing Mode: 3N
VTT=1.425V

[Kilyin]

Anyone know why TurboV EVO is reading my CPU PLL wrong and Asus Probe gives the correct reading?

Just me I guess?

[Splave]

which bios and program version?

[hazy81]

Just me I guess?

I had the same problem reading CPU PLL value until I flashed with latest BIOS 0602 and now it is OK, but I am sure it is a bug.

[Kilyin]

which bios and program version?

Still 0402, and TurboV Evo 1.0.12.2. Guess I need to flash.

I've never had a dual BIOS board before, I assume it has two copies of 0402 currently...

I had the same problem reading CPU PLL value until I flashed with latest BIOS 0602 and now it is OK, but I am sure it is a bug

I figured it was a bug, but wondered if there was a fix. I guess I need to flash the BIOS. Tbh I kinda like this BIOS though.

[Marvin82]

is the 0602 Bios the latest Bios?
My Xeon W3520 run not very god

[zsamz_]

splave you still on bios 534?
should i be puttin in 1.9v pll? less or more i'm @ 1.84 now
? safe for qpi vtt volts
ulk frequency is it the same rule as per a 920?
tks

i got her stable 4.4 1.39v 4.5 needs 1.44v for linx

eva2000 has a good guide for the uncore rules and guidelines for the 980x's

wow completly different game now
now i can go over 2k easy
i was usin 2x rule for memory had to use 1.5
now i gonna be good with even less juice

I meant to ask you, how is that EK Asus HP NB block working out? My NB temps have skyrocketed since going to watercooling, even with that crappy little fan heatsink (figured out why the fan wasn't working, kind of embarrassing)

i got a swiftech was cheaper n thev ek was soldout
you will see a 10-15c drop in nb and sb temps and i'm sure the pwm will be cooler
i even replace all that yellow crap asus had on the nb and sb


i'm @ 2214mhz cas8 stable @ 4.4ghz so far cpu:1.39 vdim:1.65v qpi vtt:1.4
i'm in the ballpark n will work on lowerin cpu volts
for 4.5 i need 1.44v

Man I cant wait

[donmarkoni]

No, but I found a solution

Something is not right. You said to set DRAM Timing Mode to 3T, but your screenshot shows 1T.

[zsamz_]

i'm stumped
why so low bandwidth
