The only real advice I can give is stick with the stock base clock and your mems ratted speed at first and then increase bclk up to where you need it for those speeds you're going for and see what the qpi data link rate is at after starting at 6400. That'll give you a good idea as to what uncore you can use as higher uncore requires higher data link which requires higher qpi voltage. That's all I was getting at... its stupid hard to be linx stable with 12 plus gb mem stable at high speeds with high uncore. Other than that I can only say try swaping mem stick to different dimm slots to see if there's any change for the best regardless of how much mem you use. Just know that having two different sized sticks per chan could cause other uneeded problems due to every otherring stick of ram being double the size which requires double the effert to clock compared to the smaller stick in the same channel.

I'm not tryin to frustrate you, most of what I may have hinted at is only coming from my own frustration trying to do the same thing as you. I do follow your posts and do see what you're doing but I also see your difficulty, most of what'd I had said is only in retrosprect to what you are having problems with. Hell with 6gb of mem on mine I STILL can't get higher then 1900 mem speed. Any higher than about 1940, sticks start droping out regardless of what voltages I use or high much I adjust any timings at all. 12gb and higher is really difficult in general period... and I feel your pain >.<

EDIT: also I do read sig a lot and asume system hardware from that ahead of time of whic I am sorry if I confused you going that route as your sig says system mem of 12gb. Just know those higher uncores are a pain and its more to do with the cpu imc rather than motherboard. And I will say that I don't notice much increase of performance past 3400 uncore. After that its more pure cpu power over anything else that's sanely obtainable.
I really don't need or want *your* help in particular.
Again your post is off the mark as clearly I've already stabilized 2.1ghz and blown way past 200BCLK without slow mode.

Clearly I understand what the uncore limit of my cpu is since I already noted that mine doesn't do better than 3.8, and I usually run it at 3.6...

Also, I don't have stability problems with 12 or 18gb. I just have linx gflop problems if I tell it to allocate more than 9gb ram. Again, this is the third time I'm mentioning that to you.

I feel like I'm at this point when it comes to you.
