SandyBridge 2D madness - let's tweak for the best 1m, 32m, pifast and wprime!

[SoF]

if you run it on XP and no tweaks its going to be 6m39 , just ran a quick one for kicks

I think that's a bit too fast for a windows that is not tweaked. I ran it on my pi windows and ~6min 44/43s without CDT and 6min 40s with CDT.
Hadn't a run with 6min 39s yet - but testing 7-10-7 now (what constantly fails due to me beeing a vccsa-:banana::banana::banana::banana::banana: )

But you are running 8-10-8-30 and from my testing (not with Sandy) trcd and trfc will give u a nice little boost...

So if you can do 6.43min with 8-10-8-30 i think 6.39min should be possible with 7-8-7-21

Ok it is your PI Windows but as i said i'm sure Dinos Windows also always a bit tweaked

[dinos22]

You have a untweaked xp??

I don't trust you

Your 6.23min seems well tweaked

nah man just ran wazza on some crappy XP thats it

it can get a lot faster than that

tweaking timings is not that effective on sandy according to my tests. also tweaking timings sometimes can be hard depending on your ram - get's system unstable during 32m with fails in loop8-20. haven't tested my elpida with new bios yet, that's next.

€: my hypers still won't run 2133 even 9-9-9....instant freeze in 32m, tested all slots and combinations, lots of vccsa and io but not a single remarkable improvement.

pants down and show us a nice 5 gig

[loopy83]

Please show us your score with 5GHz...
I am looking forward for your PP.

With our crappy CPU 2133 CL7-11-7-27 was possible with GTX1.

Thanks guys for the interesting dicussion

seems i dont have to try hard if i already beat you without trying

[Afrokalle]

This will be my new slogan in any competition

Not sayin' but showin'





Dinos you made me testing like 5 hours 32m today - it can't be that easy, you make me feel bad

[Afrokalle]

Nice start SoF

[dinos22]

Hahaha sweet

[chew*]

fastest time on bot is 6m57s but it was vista or 7

if you run it on XP and no tweaks its going to be 6m39 , just ran a quick one for kicks

Def room for even faster than 6:39 @ 5 gig.

full unstripped win 7, no subtimings touched

BTW my effec tuning is very similar to massmans flowchart but mine differs just a tad.........

Does CPU suck monkeyballs? If yes then work on EFFECIENCY!

Stupid chip won't run 1mhz over 5 gig

[loopy83]

Nice SoF - 6min39 is a good start... we will join this little game later

[dinos22]

here is a quick run with maxmem this time and wazza

this isnt my pi OS and i only set main timings you see on the screen and did a quick run

[bassplayer]

Dinos, what sticks are those that will do 2133 7-7-7? Are they 2000 7-7-7 GT's?

[dinos22]

any decent hyper should be able to do this, these are 2000C7
i also have some GTX2 sticks which are good for it too

[Eldonko]

Can I play? 5.7Ghz chip here

http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=1612113

32m @ 3.6 np, working of efficiency. Im rusty, no where near you guys.

[dinos22]

you guys are killing me with these chips, where the hell are you pulling them out of

why dont you try some colder temps mate and try get 5.7 32m runs to stick or close to it, if you are able to reach it there is a high probability you will be able to stabilise it to bench too

[Eldonko]

Running chilled water now. Ill try SS later on.

Regarding chip, mine just came from my local pc store so it was just lucky I got a good one. Trust me I never get a good one.

Guess mine aren't decent Hyper, but I've never put more than 1.8V through them.

What kind of voltages are you giving?

(Sorry to take this off topic!)

[dinos22]

chilled water, oh OK mate that might do the trick just keep plugging away

@bass 1.78vdimm

what board are you on?

it might also be the CPU IMC you know, not necessarily RAM if youve been able to do those clocks in previous gen hardware it should be able to get similar results with these latencies.

[Eldonko]

Tough to crack that 6m barrier without a set of hyper. My mem is clocking like , cant drop timings from 9-9-9, cant bump up to 21 div.

I think it's my UD9 that's messing with things. Three different chips (W3520, 950, 970) and I've never been able to pass 32M with the 10x multi above 1800MHz (can pass at 180x10 6-6-6). It freezes about 10 seconds in, no matter what (even with 2000 9-9-9). I know my W3520 was able to do it with my RIIIE.

I'm considering an RMA but I have Forum Warz coming up for OCN and I need a board for it, so I'll probably do it after.

[dinos22]

do some testing at low clocks and clear cmos after every crash and start over or from F11 bios saves just to be sure no bad settings are still there

for me 1.22 or 1.24QPI/VTT with the right vdimm did the trick

dont forget X58 boards tend to undervolt VTT a lot to what is set in bios, you might be vtt starved

1.5 is really 1.42 or something for example

[bassplayer]

Watching a basketball game on ESPN3 right now... I'll give that a try after! Thanks for the help.

EDIT: I haven't tried higher than 1.515V on my UD9 for 32M yet.

For instance, BCLK 200, memory 2000, and Uncore at 3200 fails 2000 9-9-9 with up to 1.5 VTT.
