since you have played with both the MIVE and the UD7 what do you prefer?

Just got UD7 B3 and haven't play 3Ds with MIVE.
When it comes to ratio between bios oc settings set up to finished benching run, this board so far went 1:1.
UD7 B2 average 2:1 means at least I have to endure multiple resets and C1s or E4s with a particular oc settings from bios to finished a sucessful benching run in windows

I have some issues with TRCD 9 and higher dimm voltage than 1.73.Thing is i can get 6-10-6 almost 2280 stable for 32M with 1.79V but when i set trcd 9,anything over 1.72 (2133 memory)will cause the memory not to initialize.At 1.72 it will post about 3 of 5 times and it's stable only for 4M pi.Have you guys found a solution for this?

hmm afaik dram clockin

to mantain ram scaling on cas to speed we change other timings
when we dont want to change we overvolt to force but again theres a limit on vdimm here.

so overvolting or forcing a ram to run on certain timings has a vdimm limit.

afaik

better ask raja on this. cause afaik theres always a limit and overvolting will decrease stability.

change the sticks :/ not the fault of cpu or motherboard

Enybody a tip abbout my problem plz? (see previus screenshot/post)
thnx gys!

Enable the 1st thing, but disable the 2nd ( the on with EPOX bla bla bla or something like that ).

Those settings aren't like that by default, but you most likely enabled the xtreme oc mode :P

[M.I.K.E.Y]

Ok i enabled everything to be sure that it all on, but still no internet connection think its gonna be an RMA case :-( pff

You ask for help but you dont read what ppl write

[M.I.K.E.Y]

Relax dude, it was all on when i took the screenshot ;-) i know its disabled when default! But it doesnt solve my problem when it is dissabled or enabled.
No internet for me :-( on this baby.

Mems can do 6-9-6 on other mobo and scale with voltage with trcd 9 so the problem here is the maximus or the cpu maybe,for example i cannot boot at 2080 with trcd 9 ,same as 2133 will boot sometimes and even complet spi 8M...So i guess if the chips were bad they would not start TRCD 9 no way,but sometimes it boots and run S-pi 8M...Chew reported something similar with gskill 8-9-8 kit so i intend to think it's the board....

[Splave]

alex have you tryed just entering bios after a OC failure and just pressing f10 and saving again? sometimes works for me dont know why though lol

[PatRaceTin]

What if i change from P67A-UD7 to Max4Ex ?

[jcniest5]

How do you guys know where to get the latest BIOS before we ever see it officially? I need 1303 if anyone can link me up.

afaik no overclockin benefit other than 2 things

u can set c6 limit
and nf200 voltage control disappeared

[jcniest5]

Dont know if you fixed this yet but for me I had the same problem and I had to switch my boot drive off of the marvell sata ports and onto one of the others, it works fine now. I now only use the marvell for my dvd drive.
Dont know if that helps at all in your situation.

Nope, my problem remains at anything above 51x multi. 51x and below boots up fine (stability is another story though). All my HDs and even DVD drive are on the Intel P67 SATA ports. Two SATA3 HDs are on the SATA3 6Gb/s ports whereas the DVD drive and other SATA2 HDs are on the SATA2 ports.

With Dumo's link, I just dowloaded and flash mine to 1303 as well. My BIOS 1 remains 1101. I will only update BIOS 2 in case there's something wrong while flashing.

Dumo, I'm still waiting for your complete EFI BIOS Settings/template.

[M.I.K.E.Y]

Problem fixed gys, it was a mayer noob problem with the cable :-)) lol.
ok now that problem is solved its time for the fun part thats called 2600k its the friend
of Gskill ripjaws ;-) .... Muhahaha!
Greetz ;-)

[Expat GriZ]

Glad to see you got is sorted Mike.....yup, sometimes its the simple things. Now lets see what that Cpu and board can do!!

[sfxs]

So I am working on my clocking right now; 2600k @ 48x100 1.350v is a breeze; 56c prime blend (water).

I can boot at 50x100 but that is about it; tried PLL on and LLC 75%; no difference. As soon as I start prime blend I get an error on one of the threads and a few sec-min later a bsod (101). Is 50+ a reasonable goal if I want this system to last ~2 years?

Also, speedstep y/n/why?
C1E? (is this still a big deal as it was on x58)

Any advice would be appreciated.

EDIT: on bios 1101.

Perhaps you are on my boat, too, the unlucky boat, that is. If you read my posts throughout this and the 2500K/2600K thread, you will know my frustration.

[sfxs]

I checked out the batch thread (where many of your posts are). Just reading some of that stuff makes my cpu cringe. 1.58 vcore... sure maybe that would do it - what would the lifetime of the cpu be though? I guess I just don't know how high to push it yet. Capping temps at 60c in LinX @ 4.8 1.35v HT off. HT on and it bsod 101 in < 1 minute. I have the thermal handling capacity but I am not looking to just run a bench - need a 24/7 stable system.

do you try loosening/slowing your ram down?

[Dumo]

@Sfxs....Try other benchs, prime and all those torture tests should not take the fun out of overclocking. Probly you can easily run 5Ghz+ with other test.

I can prime @ 5Ghz+ but it will probly put too much unecessary load on my single stage cooler and eventually going to kill it for nothing.

[Dumo]

Did anyone using bios 1303 ever stuck at post code 00 when start booting systems?

[sfxs]

Splave,

I am running a 4x4 kit rated for 7-8-7-24 1600 1.6v at 7-8-7-24 1333 1.5v - I didn't think it would be an issue but I suppose I can up it to 1.6 or drop to 9's for testing the cpu.

Dumo,

I am having plenty of fun, and benches are fine and all, but I am looking for a 100% stable daily use machine too. If the chip degrades in a year and I have to clock it back I can live with that, or if it dies completely in 2 years I could live with that too. What kind of voltage is "safe" for that scenario though? I am quite sure 1.350 it will last forever but meh thats no fun.

Thanks again,
