Looking Detail Baby Monster "ASUS MAXIMUS V GENE"

[andressergio]

andressergio would you be able to post your settings? Just the voltages mostly, I have a MVG on the way and have fallen behind on what Ivy needs/is safe for which voltages.

of course mate but most ppl will tell me its high but my chip is rock solid at this settings for 24/7

do you want OFFSET vcore ? or manual either way i give you both ok ?


my I3570K 5GHz on water IHS OFF with new paste and on again + Team X 2600 CL10-12-12-22 1T tRFC 107 Latency Boundary 6

MANUAL VCORE

1) LOAD GAMER PROFILE and set x50 multi

LLC = Ultra High = 75%

INTERNAL PLL= ENABLED

VCORE= 1,485

VTT= VCCCIO = 1.1

VCCSA = 1.1

PLL = 1.7

VDIMM 1.665 (this depends on your mem)


OFFSET VCORE this will make your chip load the max when gamming and when needed and when browsing or whatever will be on 1,25volts

1) LOAD OPTIMIZED DEFAULTS and reboot

2) enter the DIGI VRM and set VCORE PHASE CONTROL = OPTIMIZED (this will enable MANUAL and OFFSET otherwise you wont see that menu)

3) put VCORE = OFFSET +

VCORE= +0.25

rest same volts as above

4) ENABLE EIST and C1E states


Thats it mate
Hope it goes good my chip is vcore hunger but rock solid
Cheers !!!

I seem to have the same problem as Hersounds with this 1101 bios. 5Ghz stabilty requires a hell of a lot more Vcore. Also latency Boundary 5 on my PSC sticks was easy with other bios' now i have to set it to 7 as a minimum for some stability.

I want to flash back but EZ flash says Image outdated. Can i use the USB drive in ROG connect USB port then hold the rog connect button for a few seconds with this board to flash back to older bios?

i solved it Zeus as i said above BIOS 1101 requieres a bit more vcore, as im using offset i really dont care i like the bios very much as it boot fast as hell

yes use the ROG flash and will go back perfect

cheers !

Yes it did indeed but not the way it's described by Asus. I couldn't get it to flash and tried different USB drives, re-formatted the drives, tried holding the rog connect button for 30 seconds but the led close to the bios chip went on solid (no blinking) and it wasn't reading from the usb drive at all.

Finally after i renamed the bios M5G.CAP instead of M5G.ROM it flashed without trouble! Now i'm back at bios 0903 but i might give 0078 a go, in hindsight that was the best bios i've used.

The reason bios 1101 requires more Vcore is down to LLC working different i think. With bios 1101 having LLC set to high makes Vcore droop almost .025V! Ultra high seems the better choice there. Actually the same goes for bios 0903 i found. With bios 0078 setting LLC to high was good enough to get very little Vdroop.

Jesus SORRY mate i forgot to tell you that u have to rename the BIOS file to that really sorry

yes i think the same i have LLC on xtreme and rock solid with 0.245 vcore offset

I got a second L221B009 3770K today that needs less vcore than my first one and the IMC is much stronger. I am now starting to play with memory to see how tight I can get them then will start pushing them higher. I love this board!

[Xero99]

Nice chip but whats the temp reading on the beast?

congrats my friend !!!

[deachus]

Thanks Sergio!! Very happy with this chip. Picking up one more L221B009 this week then will pick the best out of all 5.

I havent really monitored temps or stability testing with Prime95 yet. When I checked they were like 68C during HyperPi 32M.

Hey guys, I need a quick advice from you all, as I have opportunity to get some stuff from abroad.

I was thinking of some memory, planing to use on Maximus 5 Gene (and Rampage 4 Extreme):

G.SKILL Trident X 16GB (4 x 4GB) DDR3 2400 (PC3 19200) Model F3-2400C10Q-16GTX @10-12-12-31

G.SKILL Ripjaws Z 16GB (4 x 4GB) DDR3 2400 (PC3 19200) Model F3-2400C10Q-16GZH @10-12-12-31

G.SKILL Ripjaws Z 16GB (4 x 4GB) DDR3 2400 (PC3 19200) Model F3-19200CL11Q-16GBZHD @11-11-11-31

I'm leaning towards 11-11-11-31, but I would appreciate any advice.

Thanks guys!

Go for samsung low profile 30nm, 50$ 2x4GB so 100$ total for 4x4GB , they will take you to 2400 10-12-12-22 1.65v with ease and they are your cheaper option

The G.Skill 2x4GB Trident X 2400Mhz 10-12-12-31 kits are on sale at Newegg until 8/6/12 for $89.99 plus an additional $20.00 off with Promo Code EMCNCGJ44 You could get 2 of these kits shipped to your door for $139.98 which is $60 cheaper than the same G.Skill Trident X 4x4GB 2400Mhz kit you linked to above with the same timings. Heres the link: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231587

I have them running at DDR3-2550Mhz 10-12-12-28-1T right now. At 2400Mhz I can tighten them down to 9-10-12-19-1T. I paid $99.99 for this kit a month or so ago and just ordered a second kit at $69.99 for 4x4GB fun. Cant beat that price for 2400Mhz memory.

Thanks buddy! Appreciate it!

Thanks buddy! Appreciate it!

glad to help bud i guess thats your best bet

Am i blind or you cant set blck in the new bios?

[tool_462]

1101? Or is there a link to a newer one somewhere?

Can set no problem in 1101.

Yes, im also on 1101, but cant see blck setting

[andressergio]

me neither perfect using 1101 perfect just need a bump on vcore

[tool_462]

Yes I forgot to thank you I needed a "baseline" since I hadn't overclocked Z77 or Ivy and haven't kept up.

Looks like I got a bum chip though, weak IMC and needs lots of vcore for 4.8GHz.

Sitting at 4.5 for daily use right now, IMC will do tight timings and subs but even 2400MHz on my Trident X 2400 kit it struggles to keep stable. Could be the memory too I guess but I will blame the IMC since the clocking is bad on teh chip anyway

well mine eats vcore a lot but i use OFFSET as i showed you so dont be scared to use it while its cool and you remove the IHS that helps a lot to get stable

the IMC well u cant do anything

[andressergio]

Guys maybe an obvious question

i currently have my raid of SSD on the intel Sata 3 wich we have only 2 on the gene, but ASMEDIA has 2 more, can i make a mixed raid ASMEDIA + INTEL or its not possible ?
