So who tried F7f bios for me are most the same for some reason F7e seems stable, but reboots looops i hate man

for me

f8x > f7f > f7e

[chew*]

Some 3D testss with F7f/F7e. For me both are better clocking on cpu and ram compatibility (I can clocked my D9 GTR) compared to F8x.

I think F8X tightened ship and effeciency dumo, probably just have to back off a timing or 2.

Guys just got myself this board and a 2600K. Which is teh best bios for clocking a 2600K and G Skill 2 X2gb 1600mhz 6-8-6-24 1.5v RAM? I have tried to read the thread to find this out but after reading afew pages thought I would just ask!!!

f7x/f7e

[PatRaceTin]

boring my gigabyte 6970 was dead ... sending to RMA

looking for some spare VGA Card

[jackbrennan2008]

@ Dumo - Great overclock fantastic chip you have there!

[Dumo]

Thanks OC Nub and Jack

'06 with bios F7f @ 5.75G and HT on, 2GB D9GTR @ 1.88Vdimm...Asus 560Ti stock air. My 2004 SS still can hold this one

[jackbrennan2008]

Thanks OC Nub and Jack

'05 with bios F7f @ 5.75G and MT on, 2GB D9GTR @ 1.88Vdimm...Asus 560Ti stock air. My 2004 SS still can hold this one

What cooling are you using?

[bartman1973]

Dumo ...great chip and great OC How I wish my chip is like yours I can only do 52 x 100 now

[bartman1973]

@maxxx ... lemme try f7e on my day-off I hope it will be at par or better than f7f

[Dumo]

What cooling are you using?

Stock Prometia MachII GT




@Bart..Thanks

[andressergio]

man very nice score on those sli'ed 460s make those suckers scream

thats GTX470

Have you tried dropping multiplier or trying the higher multiplier?

When i say drop multi, i mean increase BLCk to see if you can get a few more MHZ?

The maximum with GigaUD7 and BiostarT67 boards is 58X 99.8 (and any combination multi and bclk to 5.79Ghz) and not 0.1mhz. more. Probly Intel forgot to lock 56X and 57X multies on this cpu, but it sure to clamp 58X
Haven't try it with MIVE though...who knows

[sin0822]

No i meant drop the multi down to 56 or 55x and boost the blck. You haven't even used the 58x yet. i have seen 5.8ghz on this board, but with lower multi. The board wont allow blck to be raised more than 99.8 at 58x??

I think its a freq. wall @ 5.8Ghz for this cpu. Any combo of multies and bclk as long as not 5.8G is fine

Actually it still work, but it gave a lot of random bsods 0x..00124 which lead to corrupted bios. With my still healthy GTR no more problem

Hi , i thought that error code was caused by incorrect vcore?
I only ask as i have gskill as my sig and i have had some of this error too, seems to of disappeared at the moment though which makes me think its not my ram

Do many of you use 8 gig kits , what are the thoughts on 2x2Gig over 2x4Gig for overclocking the cpu that is ?

[Dumo]

Hi , i thought that error code was caused by incorrect vcore?

Probly...But I replaced rams and now run ok and no more bios corruption

[andyr(uk)]

Hi sorry saw the replies about the code now a couple of pages back.

anyway 7h is on Tweaktown !

Are we eventually going to see 2400 for memory selection in an upcoming bios?

[sin0822]

Probly...But I replaced rams and now run ok and no more bios corruption

Yea that code either needs more IMC or vcore voltage. Corrupting BIOS has a lot to do with a lot of settings, its not just one problem. LOL i like your avatar Andyr

[OC Nub]

I noticed today after flashing back to f7e, scores take a hit in 3dmark tests. In Return to Proxycon 3dm05, I havent tested but I assume in 06 also, the opening scene I normally see 234-236fps in the ship, with f7e they drop to 200 and frames throughout the test look low. Flashed back to f8x and they are normal again. Anyone else notice this?

[GLENBOY]

thats interesting to know nub i've tried all the bioses and settled on f6x as it uses the least vcore for same overclock for me of all the bioses, anybody on the f7h, any opinions

[OC Nub]

I will try f6x again, I only used it for a couple hours.

I picked up a Gigabyte GTX470 Soc. It clocks better than the EVGA 470sc but in sli they run like chit. I can score higher with my gtx460's.

[dinos22]

the card in first slot is probably throttling or overheating i have the same cards setup

the cooler is not great for tight space SLI imo
