Just like to say Hello! to everyone here as I'm new to the i7 system. I have been trolling around here for about a week trying to learn from other people's mistakes and victories. So far I have found the O/C of my 920 D0 fairly easy, but not without hiccups. I also learned not to use UD-5 Auto settings as it over volts the z out of everything. In particular the QPI/VTT which I had on auto and when I went into ET6 after doing some stress testing realized the board had set it to 1.53V, my CPU VTT was at 1.1875, so that is quite a difference. I have subsequently lowered to a stable 1.295. Next step is to go for 200 bclk, as I have read anything over 190 bclk needs alot of voltage? any other recommendations?

P.S: Could someone give me a step by step on how to make my esata work please, I have tried everything.

Damn this thread is DEAD !!!!!!!

I guess it's up to me to keep this going then!!

Here's another snippet of where I am now. I am not using LLC and the voltage is creeping up, especially after 175 blck. The ram on the other hand has to be considered a steal at what it goes for on line and what I'm able to run it at. G-skill does it again, G.SKILL F3-12800CL9T-6GBNQ great kit. Does memory timings impact QPI/VTT greatly? is my quest for faster timings increasing my QPI/VTT? How how can I go with this OC if I'm already at 1.395 QPI/VTT and 1.54 Ram VTT? Thx

Yup, pretty much. If you like really busy threads, get a new motherboard with a buggy pre-release BIOS

OK, thanks

I've flashed it today. No difference in overclock. It has new layout, but the downgrade is that it has Intel RAID driver 8.5.0.1023, and before that I was using a modified BIOS f13c from this post: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...postcount=4427 , and it had Intel RAID driver 9.6.0.1014.

I like the new layout, but the RAID drivers downgrade makes me flash the modded f13c again, until there is a modified F13J.

It's already F13k out.
