i realized that i passed all those linx 25 loops in vain...prime bsod at 35mins so crap i need to bump vcore to 1,428 load 1,46 idle passed 3hours so far at vtt 1.05 mem 1600 C7 now vtt 1.12 for 2133 C7 tight passing 1hour+ so far

LLC2 one has to be careful but dynamic vid is dangerous i tested and by mistake put like 2v so i wont be using it but i will give a try on LLC2

[andressergio]

well here it goes same i passed linx 25 2,5+ hours prime stopped cauz im tooooo anxious lol before my tweaks it wouldnt pass 25 mins now its fiiine

LLC1 btw will try LLC2 later

Nice job.
What other tweaks did you do to make it pass?

definite props if your holding prime with such a high bandwidth and tight timings , thought your imc wouldn't hold that type of load

[andressergio]

Nice job.
What other tweaks did you do to make it pass?

i was testing 1,47bios set on LLC1 as my max vcore, so i decided this time to make it pass 3 hours + on 1600C7 to see if CPU was stable and it was i used 1,05vtt, so i cranked up ram and failed in 20mins so i went till 1,12vtt + that vcore and all went good

i also set trfc 88 and IO latency = 2 this last one makes me start and restart with no boot loops unless i make anything wrong

other tip i got is to use system agent on 0,975 that helps ram stable but i just used it on auto

the vcore combo + vtt was the key

thanks for asking
cheers !

thanks T ! i was frustrated on this so i took my time all day to search for it, thanks a bunch for your help on your tests thats made me realize that for sandyb prime is the key linx means notha as i showed before

thanks again

Installed the 2600k tonight, not a great chip but fun to play with.

I may take a trip to micro and see if I can get a better chip.

GA-P67A-UD7-B3 (and others) are on official Gigabyte web.
UD7 and UD5 remain Rev.1.0 and the rest are Rev.1.1.

Nice timings for 1866 cl6 . . kickin a bit of voltage for 5.2 , Im sure i would need the same with my batch ,

GA-P67A-UD7-B3 (and others) are on official Gigabyte web.
UD7 and UD5 still Rev.1.0 and the rest are Rev.1.1.

Stasio im guessing this is the new version well get sent next month hopefully ?

I got tired of it failing the cpu tests in 3d benches so I gave it some juice.

[andressergio]

So as my friend real 7 told me i wasn't stable on NON SP1 so i was thinking i needed more volts to SP1 wich wasn't true...now i can pass the same on SP1 they key is using prime on this chips very easy to pass linx and fail prime

thanks bud

stasio for us that dont have the chance to RMA our boards bios will continue improving ? or they will only make for B3 ?

hope yes as i dont have any possibility to send the board back

mine still perfect running strong

Alot of things have changed with sandy bridge but one thing that doesn't change , is prime . it does what your pc was meant to do but heavy loaded
if it don't prime it aint stable , ive past linx test 40 runs and failed on easy encoding . . after passing prime I never bsod

Sergio glad she running nice . . put your game face on

Nice, I still love Prime too, linx in good but the more you can test it with the better.

Don't forget to test with HCI Memtest too

Your load temps are kind of variable core to core, you can adjust them in Realtemp so they are the same (I choose a point closer to the hottest core and adjust to that point, so for yours say 67*C). Then do idle calibration adjustment so they are the same at idle. I know I have OCD but I like when they are close/same

Heyyyyy friend how are you thanks !!! yes i always Memtest for shooo

i will try what you say on temps

what is HCI Memtest ? is it like hyper pi

Im try this real temp thing of yours I oike to see them the same to as in reality with them being on the same core im sure they are the same and intel sensors are always quirky

Thank you!

Nope it's a pure memtester in windows. You will have to run a few instances to eat up all the available ram. If the ram is unstable it will error out (logic)

I can hyperpi 32M al nite , yet the same ram clocks fail under HCI memtest, usually a slight bump in ram voltage stabilises it...

thanks for asking

Sergio

Thats one of the worst chips ive seen on those forums... I thought i had a poor chip since i need 1.39v to run the chip @ 4.8 w/HTon but you need over 1.4 volt,

Most ppl can acheive 4.8 with like 1.37 vcore. Damn shame if you ask me .

New B3 revision allready listed in the shop i have buy my UD7 .... if im lucky, i should be able to change it soon.
