Asus crosshair v formula club

[Athlonite]

Sadly. we won't be seeing Zen until next year though, hopefully in Q1, but most likely Q2. I'll probably stick to Asus for the upgrade, as I don't have much to complain about with my current Crosshair V, minus it sometimes looses connection on the USB port for my keyboard, causing me to have to switch it to another port...

I had the same thing when I was using a wireless KB and mouse every couple of weeks it would happen so I just went back to wired haven't had a problem since

It's happening with K70. Now it's working fine, minus the multimedia keys. lol

any one using this board tried using AMD overdrive plus bios at the same to overclock,,, recently i have played some more with it and have found that the cpuVid can only be upped with AMD overdrive alone, yeah you can bios up the volts but the reported cpuVid remains 1.325(for eg on mine) whilst all other packages(cpuid ,hwinfo) report the volts ive set (1.55for eg)as CPUin not cpuvid (correctly as they should imho as i know what Cpuvid is).

here's the bit worth a shit though, it takes a bios forced 1.55CoreV for me to get 4.8Ghz stable on all cores(and i do mean stable), which then max's out my thermal profile for this system ie i cant clock stably higher and use it (to fold on 6 cores)as my cpu gets to 64 (while folding 24/7) ,and if i load Amd overdrive it says my cpuvid is 1.325 ,stk style(this is because my pc rads need a clean atm tbh but ya know,,,,,).

However i can get the same Ghz shown in all packages ,and for much lower temps via AMD Overdrive soft by bios setting 1.5 Core V (with high load line cal as before) and clocked to boot at 4.8 still, which this time if i run anything heavy(folding at home) it crashes as it is expected to but.

I Loaded Amd overdrive set the cpuvid to 1.35 and left everything else as it was and with this done its back stable folding 24/7 all last night and no where near as high a temp reached , i can fold like this long term now.

Hwinfo 64 reports this increase in cpuvid and despite every effort i cannot get that figure (for all 8 cores) higher via any other method including bios , IT is a better OC though and has me pondering a refresh and re-clock weekend, ive a new second pump and some decent Tim on the way as i speak.

right so tim's here , weekend nearly is so here's some pics of the above performance i mentioned running folding@home for several hours fine ,proof.


sorry im not counting this as a Dp more a bump
