UnOfficial EVGA X58 Classified Owners Thread

Well after a year of flawless use, my boards usb ports have died I think. All the sudden when I turned my computer on the other day I had no mouse or keyboard. Plugged them into another computer and they worked fine. Plugged them into my classified and nothing. Not a light or anything. Anybody else have this issue? I am hoping I don't have to get another board and rma it.

If all USB ports gone at one shot i think something to do with driver.
It did happen to me when i switched from one mobo to another one my windows couldnt recognize the usb ports even in safe mode. End up by reinstalling windows it solved my problem.

I can't format because I don't have a keyboard. It won't even work in dos so I can't enter bios or do anything. That's why I thought they all just went dead.

Hey guys,
What is the best bios for Evga Classified 3 E770 ?
Thanks...

[Brazen_NL]

74 and 77 OC the same for me, which is all I tested. I didn't run into any problems with either.

Hey guys,
Who can help me with templates to 4.8GHz on a 980X?
Thanks...

Did some testing on Memory Low Gap and Maximum Payload Size using Classified 4-Way and 2x 6970 2GB in CFX.
Tested in Unigine Heaven.

Render: direct3d11
Mode: 2560x1600 4xAA fullscreen
Shaders: high
Textures: high
Filter: trilinear
Anisotropy: 16x
Occlusion: enabled
Refraction: enabled
Volumetric: enabled
Replication: disabled
Tessellation: extreme

1. Memory Low Gap.
2G:
FPS: 39.7
Scores: 1000
Min FPS: 12.9
Max FPS: 88.8
3G:
FPS: 39.9
Scores: 1005
Min FPS: 13.4
Max FPS: 88.7
Auto:
FPS: 40.1
Scores: 1010
Min FPS: 13.4
Max FPS: 90.3
Sticking to Auto...

2. Maximum Payload Size.
Read up first.
According to Intel's datasheet (page 34):

3.2.5.1 Max_Payload_Size
The IOH supports a Max_Payload_Size of 256 Bytes on PCI Express ports and 128 Bytes on DMI.

So not sure there was any point to go up from 128 to 4096...
Then again:
http://www.techarp.com/showFreeBOG.a...ng=0&bogno=385

It is recommended that you set this BIOS feature to 4096, as this allows all PCI Express devices connected to send up to 4096 bytes of data in each TLP. This gives you maximum efficiency per transfer.
However, this is subject to the PCI device connected to it. If that device only supports a maximum TLP payload size of 512 bytes, the motherboard chipset will communicate with it with a maximum TLP payload size of 512 bytes, even if you set this BIOS feature to 4096.

Test results:
128:
FPS: 39.9
Scores: 1005
Min FPS: 15.2
Max FPS: 89.4
256:
FPS: 39.9
Scores: 1005
Min FPS: 16.1
Max FPS: 89.3
4096:
FPS: 39.9
Scores: 1006
Min FPS: 15.5
Max FPS: 88.8
I did 3-4 runs for each, these are average values. Results are inconclusive, perhaps 256 is slightly better (when looking at particular runs, not averages).
DPC latency is not affected.

Could someone please test Maximum Payload Size (128, 256, 4096) in 3DMark 11 using CFX/SLI?

Anyone have links to a collection of E762 bios'es? Sorta late bloomer for a 4way..
Got it 2nd hand though. Thanks in advance guys...

They're all available on the EVGA site when you go to the BIOS download page for 762: http://www.evga.com/support/drivers/

Hello, wich is the best bios for OC X on 760 classified for 980x ???

tks!

[zalbard]

ver 77

[zsamz_]

look what my classy just did

i can boot alot higher
gonna try for more

edit:went a bit higher on next try

[enkie]

nice bclk

[Mafio]

what cooling?
BTW looks like you have a good cpu, you should get a pot and try it at LN2

cooled by a phase unit built by Gray mole

i plan to play with some dice in the summer
its just too cold outside right now lol

[radaja]

zsamz,very nice

I have problem with stable my cpu i7 980x 4.5Ghz. These are my settings in BIOS:
Cpu vcore: 1.435V
Cpu Vtt: +300mV
Dim voltage: 1.65V
Ich Vcore: 1.1V

What do I need to change that my cpu stable? Please help. I have evga Classified E760

your vtt is way too high
you dont need over 150% 1.36v vtt should be more than enough n you over 1.45v

NICE!
I have a 920 like that
http://valid.canardpc.com/show_oc.php?id=979704
would run most all dx9 3d benches i could throw at it @240 BKL @-20-30c.
1.49vc 1.30vvt 1.65 cpu ppl 1.65v.ddr 1.70v dmm real

never tried to push it or the mb too high for cpuz or anything else like that.
