My idle memory usage is right around 400mb if I do that, leaves lots of resources for everything else.

 

[d1nky]

got an email back from an asrock rep, he said he didn't have one but is asking someone else if they do...

so maybe there is an alternative/extreme bios for this mobo, otherwise he would of said no straight away.

fingers crossed, and he said just remember to cool the vrms, nice guy tbh. Most are ignorant and always say no and remind about warranties blah blah blah

 

[Irony]

That would be cool. Man I would love if there was a vrm block for this board. I guess they don't get excessively hot close to 60 with high volts

the guys @ anfitec usually produce WB´s for MB for low $$ if u send them the mobo for measuring so they can fullfill their productline, would that help ?
i could get ya a grip to them if you want

they also have universal VRM blocks

universal VRM block templates to check
http://anfi-tec.de/UPCskizze.pdf

same for NB/SB

use cardboard for your templates (1:1) ...... as mentioned in the pdf

THANKS MAN!

I don't think ill be adding a block to the vrms tho, im already thinking on a 3770k platform.

I modded the vrms with a fan and they stay pretty cool and never get hot with benching. others may be interested tho.

so whens your rig up and running?!

ROG is back in Biz on CH5F-Z and my 2nd CH5F just arrived from RMA , checked it last night if all works, since it´s the same i send them.....

done some test on the -Z had the 8150 stable @ 5Ghz with 2.6HT , 2.6NB and 2100 on ram , the -Z has plently of OC features compared to the non -Z, i need to dig more into all the switches i found in the Bios


so u wanna go on intel ha, traitor

been thinking about it just for benching purposes, I got to finish this build completely then maybe new year or something.

and then id probably try and get some extreme cooling and learn with the 8350

that's just an idea tho.

these asrock boards are pretty weak with all the features tbh, hopefully some clever dick will realise that people like to abuse hardware lol

New RAM just arrived

Just a quick question;

can I clean off the thermal compound with local surgical spirit that has ethanol instead of iso propanol?

thanks

 

[d1nky]

I used to use white spirit, tend to use methylated spirits and once used saliva hahaha!

Nice I hope they work as good for you as the ones I have. They're not the fastes around but they are pretty flexible and have taken up to 1.87v so far without dying

That should be fine just don't get sloppy with it. If you have them around coffe filters work great they're tough and lint free. And jus make sure that the alcohol/water has dried before re-applying the TIM

 

[kannas]

thanks for the replies .

one more question; having an intake fan to blow air on the back plate of the cpu help reduce temps by atleast couple of degrees?

so far i can only get

2133MHz 11-11-11-30 1.55v & 1866MHz 9-9-9-27 1.5v

what you try to archive ?

if you wanna overclock, you should have some decent airflow in your case, and yes shure you can drop "some" degrees if you place a fan directly to the components.....

which are they basically rated 1866 ?
i had mine running on 2100 @ 1,6 volts (1866)

I have problem if i go above 4.4 Ghz with H80i on fx 8350

trying to mod my case to fit in extra fans.

you go on push/pull on that h80i ?
i think it fools ya a bit with the temp or you messed it up with (to much) thermal compound
try to pickup this

http://www.cpuid.com/news/47-cpuid_reviewer_kit_for_amd_fx_bulldozer.html

and recheck your temps

Yes push/pull config--exhaust at rear. One fan each at side and front for intake. In thread people suggested to keep side panel open and check, i dont think that will make a huge impact but sure a couple of degress.

I had same issue with the pre-applied compound, so I got antec formula 7 and same results.

I just feel like keeping my case in a fridge and OC the hell out of it

if you applied that much like shown it´s ok, i do less

since u have the 80i what does the corsair software tells ya on rpm of the pump/fans

i think i applied just a lil more than that.

i have the pumps on max speed. so they are around 2600-2700 rpm.

pump too max speed. dont remberber the rpm.

I just checked your thread and I think I know the problem. The 8350 pulls a lot of power and the VRM on the 99fx pro wouldn't hanle mine much over 4.5. Even if you have fans on the VRM

They are rated

1866MHz 9-10-9-28 1.5v

and on the socket at the back of the board it'll still be limited.
Mine are rated at 11's 2133 1.65v
I can run it at 7-9-8-24-33-1T with 1.8+v

@ D1nky I just remembered a thread in another forum and I know they had that Fatlady in the 1.7 range I'll have to do some digging but I'll find it.
