doing RMA and if thats not working then refund

[Raja@ASUS]

Check temps and make sure the pump is spinning at full speed. That's all the debugging I can help you with from here.

[rusty]

temps idle 37c max 65c, need to find how to check the pump speed.

[Charles Wirth]

Hi Rusty,

I think it is your ram. break it down to one stick of ram installed closest to the rear panel.

Test each stick

Thank You Fugger, I'll try that. What do you use to test your ddr4 ?

[Raja@ASUS]

Set Q-Fan control to disabled on the header the pump is connected to. This will run the pump at full speed. Make sure you are not using the pump with a fan on the CPU and CPU OPT headers (if the pump is on the OPT header).

As you are already passing Memtest with quad channel, I think it will be tough for you to nail down any memory instability with a single module.

@rusty
Try like Raja said, use only 1 stick of ram, drop the speed down to 2133.

AND.. maybe try vmem at 1.3v, that isn't to high I think, just because ddr4 is spec'ed at 1.2v, doesn't mean it prefers it, it'll probably need more for 2800mhz anyways.

1.35v is probably the starting point I would think...

One more thing, if you installed windows or whatever os you have while you were unstable, you might not beable to get it stable afterwards even if you fix the bios settings.
Always start low and safe, verify it's stable before you clock up.


Anyways listen to these guys here, they can probably help you sort it out but you have to actually listen.
2800mhz mem isn't stock you know..., even if the ram is rated for it.

Thanks Raja I'm trying that so far no difference

Check event viewer for error logs when the resets occur.

Check event viewer for error logs when the resets occur.

I will look into that but tomorrow rma is going out cause shipping label was created already.

[Raja@ASUS]

Okay, good luck.

Testing 4X8GB with high uncore, cpu cold

Good result Dumo

Watercooled 4647MHz CPU and Cache. DDR4-3305 1T 2 hours of Realbench (2X570s)

[computerpro3]

I seem to have a very good 5820k on a X99 deluxe, can boot and windows stable at 4.9-5ghz and games for hours at 4.8ghz (even IBT stable for 10 passes of very high) but it crashes in realbench and x264 stress test at 4.7ghz. This is a problem for me because I upgraded largely to do x264 encoding lol.

I keep getting 124 and 101 BSODs which are usually vcore, but I truly don't believe it is because there is no difference between 1.32 and 1.4v for stability. Maybe a little more vcore helps slightly. Here are my settings that I cannot get stable:

4.7ghz
1.3 - 1.4v

PCHIO 1.625
VCCIO 1.2
CPU Cache 1.23125
pch core 1.2
vccio cpu 1.2
CPU Input voltage: 2.15

Optimized cpu phase power control
140% cpu current capability
Auto cpu vrm switching frequency
CPU llc 9

Have tried with LLC on auto as well as manually levels 8 and 9, seems to make no difference.

Temps are great, have a nice water setup. Never hits 80c in x264 or realbench.

VRM temps are getting hot, around 78-80c.

I am totally out of ideas, is it the board? Should I return it and get the Rampage? I really want 4.8ghz stable for 24/7 use.

OMG those are amazing results my friend !!!

More likely the CPU. We don't always get what we want frequency wise from a CPU in all applications. Looking at the voltages being used that CPU is being hammered with all sorts.

Do you really need VCCIN at 2.15 for example?

Probably needs more Vcore for encoding - up to you of you want to do that. Personally I'd run the CPU where it's comfortable and not stretch it too far.

Some numbers

Nice!

Awesome DRAM clocks+timings Charles!

playing playing and playing, training training gave me 43/43 C10 nice job asus, 5035 uncore incoming later

[Raja@ASUS]

Very nice Hiwa.
