Does anyone run these on R3E ?

Yup...nice kit. Ran them on the RE III @ 2200 8 8 8 24 no probs. They currently sit in my home rig eVGA 759 Classy 2000 and change @ 7 7 7 20. Thats a much better price than when I bought them. Go for it!!!

Thanks for all the advice.

I managed a stable 222 BCLK by increasing the pcie to 103 and increased the ioh and ich voltages.

I tested Bad Company 2, Crysis, 3dmark06, And Heaven Benchmark. And all run fine except for micro stuttering in the heaven benchmark while msi afterburner is enabled.

Tnx !! I am going >_<

[AceBaran]

Check my sig.

Now i know i can get them since you run them too Donmarkoni >_<

[FlanK3r]

guys, what version BIOS is the best for aircooling? And what for LN2? Thx.

I got them three days ago, and got 980X two days ago, so didn't test much, as I'm more interested in CPU now.

Pete you can reduce TRC to 8 , no problem ? so they are not PSC then ?

Hi Albrecht....I originally thought they were PSC but haven't looked under the hood. Fooled around with them a bit before I left for KSA...will be home Sunday (Allah willing).

Was impressed by what I was able to do with them in a few hours. Will explore more when I get home. The Xeon 3565 I bought second hand lets me run high uncore, just doesn't clock that well under LN2 so made it a home chip.

Let you know when I'm back in the real world.

What ? PSC ? teach me master !

[Splave]

anyone running memory 2:12? Whenever I try I get first led flashing on post which seems to happen when uncore is too high... im trying 133 2:12 uncore x24 any help is appreciated

[Leeghoofd]

Which bios Splave ? Have to hookup the REX III tonite to finish the review...

[Splave]

1005 bios

[Leeghoofd]

Seems to work here : Bclock 133; 3600 uncore 2:12, 2:14 and 2:16 boot straight to Win7 (0704 bios)

Voltages on QPI/VTT?

[Leeghoofd]

1.35 for the i970 set there, could be lowered prolly... ( I don't know if these are stable, but at least it boots into windows7 ) Didn't touch Vcore either ( voltage for 4.2 priming for the waterblocks)

[Splave]

damn I cant even boot that, thanks for checking mate

Congrats on the new hardware donmarkoni, how's the OCing going on the 980x?
She is a beautiful piece of hardware

Can you do me a favor, when you get a nice OC will you please post your BIOS template? I'm currently running mine at 4.2Mhz for a 24/7 cruncher, but when I get my farm settled (5 other mahcine for WCG) out want to see what she will do and I'll admit I'm not the best at OCing and actually very poor at it when it comes to the memory.

Hey guys ...

Just received my Rampage III's and a i7 950 Cpu today
I tested the cpu and has a very nice low vid 1.15V only.. Hope this one can clock well for low volts







Cheers and kind regards everyone

Have Fun Toolius

Urgent help needed: i'm running windows 7 x64, bios 1102 and i can't recover from sleep mode. When i put my computer to sleep, it goes to sleep - no prob with that. But when i try to wake it, it powers on (everything seems to be rnning ok) but there is no signal comming from the vodeo card to the monitor (power diode is blinkig as in sleep mode). I have to manually power it off, then turn it back on again. then the message "resuming windows" appears as if resuming from sleep. It's really frustrating. I've tried playing around with different biod setting but so far nothing worked for me. I have all cpu power saving features disabled. Any ideas? Any help will be much appreciated

Any ideas why my cpu qled indicator is turned on? I just changed my 980x from an msi xpower to my new rampage extreme 3 and the Qled is marking cpu....any help would be greatly appreciated.....all my rig is completed and does not boot, doesnt show display doesnt do anything...the cpu was fully functional i don't know why is marking that component... Thanks

I think 3013A472 is good batch.
My chip can run 3D06 & Vantage over 6.0GHz under LN2 .
Some Japanese OCer use same batch CPU, there are very nice same as my chip.

I hope you enjoy new chip.
