4ghz Club

[fatguy1992]

I was bored this afternoon so I played with my W3570, still only air cooling, can't wait for my cascade to come back, so boring without it.

Something to gander at...

nice bro, what cooling?

Coolit Boreas atm, but it can be done on regular water cooled loop or a good air cooler as well.

Easy 4GHz.

Here is a screen with RealTemp...

Hey guys, do you's think I have too much voltage on the 920?

[HammerON]

It does seem a little high, however each 920 is differnet. I believe Paulieg and Binge have made several posts about how 920's really vary in VCore.
Run LinX and see what temps you get.

[(FIH) The Don]

thats is quite high for a DO

have a friend who does 4.1 on 1.125+-

is it unstable under that voltage or is it first try?

Actually I started at around 1.36v @ 4GHZ, ran some test and it wasnt stable so I increased the voltage to 1.375, booted the system again, ran some test again, wasnt stable so I increased the voltage to 1.388v or something like that, it ran the tests longer and I was started to get happy but it BSOD so I tried one more time and set it too 1.41v and it was finally stable, MAX load CPU temps were 75C - 79C, cores were slightly higher.

Just wish I didnt have to use so much voltage, increashed temps more than I thought!

do you use XMP on the memory?

Nah man, I dont have it on that setting.

My RAM is running at 1524mhz, XMP runs at 1866mhz and apparently this MB wont wrk at that speed!

PS. how the hell did ur friend manage those voltages at that speed?

[(FIH) The Don]

hmm okay, just got another friend with RIIE board, dominators and a i7 920 do, and when he turns on XMP on that board all hell breaks loose

you remember to turn off eist, C1E, spread spectrum etc?

and my friend got one of the cpus from the best batch in the world, or one of them

Can you post a RealTemp screen? It looks like your hsf is not seated properly or is not up to snuff.

Not sure what eist is, couldnt find it in the BIOS settings unless Im blind but C1E & speed spectrum are both disabled.

Yeah your friend sure has some luck, would be nice to have that!

PS. thanx for the help too!

I will double check it and post some screenies soon.

NP man, glad to help with what i can :laugh;

take a look here if you havent already http://forums.techpowerup.com/showthread.php?t=108526

i use it from time to time to refresh the basics for i7 oc'ing

You should post a BIOS template with your settings, something is off there. I know they can vary a lot, especially later batches need more vcore, but I think that's just too much.

On XS there is a member by the username of "IMO". He has a i7 that does 4.2 GHz @ about that voltage, it's insane!

This should be it. Fill it out and post it. This way we can see exactly what you are doing.

Im using the Rampage II Extreme, not the first one, would it make any difference?

You can try posting as much info as possible, sure lot of the BIOS settings are shared. IF not google for a template for your board.

How do you get 190.5 BCLK?

Here is the template for you. Just leave the "code" tags around it. Don't forget to list what Bios your using if different.
