Enabling Turbo Core on asus M4A78T-E

[cdawall]

haha yeah i disabled the turbocore, as i read a while back that if ur gonna overclock then turn it off. And i put the voltage to 1.4 like cdawall said and now its jumping between 1.419 and 1.425 so its little jumps.

thats perfectly normal on all motherboards. its the PWM fluctuating trying to keep the board at a stable voltage

See I told you he wanted to OC.

rofl he can still oc on that board!

Yes. Only time you will see huge jumps is when you are using turbo which you disabled.

Also be sure to disable cool and quiet.

Not if he turned down the voltage he can't.

lol OK. so i should turn off the cool n quiet or leave it on? what difference does it make if i do or dont?

man i wish i knew as much as you guys did haha. i feel dumb. oh well im a noob.

You wanna turn it off. cdawall I'm sure will agree

Basically it down clocks your CPU when its not under stress. It can cause performance delays. No self respecting geek has it on.

he can with turbo off crack head. the huge jumps are normal on alot of boards for turbo

turn it off.

turn it off.

Isnt that WTF I just said?! "Huge jumps for turbo". "Mini jumps for stock".

As for the OC well.......he needs a better board.

i bet he can hit 3.5ghz which is perfect for a stock cooler

On 1.4? Hmmmmm I might take you on the bet. One hour OCCT?

...lol what does OCCT mean?

how bout 8hrs?

it should do it just fine if the pile of shit 790FX-GD70 can this board can

my chip had no issues in fact it is the highest clocked 790 series board it just takes a little more work

Blinov Listen nothing cdawall or I have said will hurt your system. We are both debating the quility of your board thats all. 1.4 is a normal voltage for the 1055 and 1090T. cdawall says you can OC with that voltage. I dissagree as the board you have was never designed for x6 chips. It was an after thought. But here is what I would do before you do anything.

1. Make sure you are 100% stable at stock. Do not overclock anything.
2. If everything is stable save up and get a better cooler.
3. OC is small steps. Don't get all crazy and go for 4Ghz. Stay humble.
4. Only up your voltage when you NEED TO. With your board I think you will need more then normal. This is where Cdawall and I dissagree.
5. Keep your timings tight and your temps down.

That should be it man.

that works for me ill agree to that and i still don't think it needs more volts

Where is his board. I don't see it? Oh and 8 hours? FU!

 

[Blinov]

hahah man you guys went on a bit of a rant there...didn't mean for you guys to argue! anyhow i thank both of your guy's comments and advice. So what do you mean by keep my timings tight mail man?

its not on there i never posted a 790GX clock on there i will have to hunt one down. there is a GB 790GX which is in the same boat as his board. neither was released before the X6's were same as my CH3 790FX. the reason yours is a weak clocker is it does not have as good BIOS support as the DDR3 boards

hahah man you guys went on a bit of a rant there...didn't mean for you guys to argue! anyhow i thank both of your guy's comments and advice. So what do you mean by keep my timings tight mail man?

me and him always argue.

for timings he means your ram timings

Your RAM. AMD boards love tight timings. Makes things snappier.

Is that why the DDR3 was also at 1.47? Sounds like the same support to me.

doesn't matter what version its at yours is all chip updates

his ram looks like its got some oddly low timings....1600 6-6-6-20? Blinov can you post a link to your ram kit? Google is screaming hypers

 

[Blinov]

Yea definitely. http://www.memoryexpress.com/Products/PID-MX28656(ME).aspx

So...Tight RAM timings....which means? (remember im quite new) haha

Here man. This will get you started. Post up questions as you need to.

For RAM timings cdawall can help you. I suck at them.

Right on thanks man!
