[DaMulta]

:shadedshu

Your going to do raid and your system is going to be so bloody fast........




T U

Hope you enjoy it, and to me those SDD drives should last a life time.

 

[Fitseries3]

im gonna sell them and get the 2 gtx260s that ive been asking for for 2 months now.

oh and yeah.....

this ENTIRE setup is an early Bday present from me to me.

 

[DaMulta]

Well Happy Birthday to you.

I'm glad you got what you asked for.

 

[Chicken Patty]

no mechaninal parts so they dont fail as easy.

(supposed to be)FASTer than regular drives.

small

um....

idk.

so you can basically use them as hard drives? Of course, their capacity is not much but, good enough for like a bench rig for example?

hard drives are usually used as hard drives yes.

I lol'd.

Sorry CP, but that was funny.

 

[Chicken Patty]

haha, s**t I completely typed that wrong. Sig material anyone hahaha.

what I meant is that it is a good idea to use for like a bench station right?

I'm not even going to correct that post, I'm effin' cracking up myself hehehehe, how stupid was that, god!!!

 

[ap4lifetn]

how stable is that clock? What was the issue that had you banging your head on your desk?

In other words, what were you doing wrong before that you could not reach that clock?

 

[dark2099]

Whole bunch of benches, I will put them in their individual threads some other time. Enjoy.

the board has too many options in the bios.

also,

there is no "feel" for when your close on settings. on 775 boards you can tell when your getting close to stable. this thing is a total shot in the dark.

good work through fit is she benchable?

 

[Fitseries3]

simple benches are for now.

sPI, generic cpu bench, things like that.

no 3dmark yet. im getting there.

make it happen man i know you can 4.5ghz on tec should be cake

Knew it, just didn't have the settings right.

Whats the trick?

 

[Fitseries3]

honestly....................


idfk.


vcore 1.5v
pll - 2.1v
qpi/dram - 1.4893
dram - 1.92

other ppl havent had to use that much voltage. me and dark have though.

 

[DaMulta]

It's all about the right mix I swear.

Just one of them being off, can cause the whole thing to come crazing down.......

The master kingpin

too high pll man...try 1.6v max pll. and for 5g maybe 1.7vv

me
I tried a bunch of them

2.1v
2.0 PLL
1.45VTT

Just can't find a good mix to get into windows.

That was me going for 5ghz with the QX9650......

 

[Fitseries3]

the lowest pll on the x58 is 1.812v.

here....

vcore = vcore
pll = pll
qpi/dram = vtt
dram = dram
ioh = NB
ioh_pcie = pcie lanes on the NB
ich = SB
ich_pcie = pcie lane on the SB

i have heard that qpi/dram to dram voltage is ~1.5x all the time.

so that would mean...

qpi/dram(vtt) 1.35v
ram needs to be 2.15v(???) thats higher than rated spec of the mem.

fugger said he could OC further IF he could find ram that could take up to 2.6v... thats insane for ddr3 thats rated at 1.5-1.65v

idk what to make of this. its really odd.

i feel like its the P5Q3 all over again.

 

[Tatty_Two]

Sounds complex to me, I'll stick with my hamster and wheel powered abacus for a while longer I think, let you guys get there, post your settings then i'll walk right thru the door......kill and eat the hamster, sell it's wheel and use the abacus to calculate how much fu*king money this lot is gonna cost me for christmas

Ohhhh and before you hamster lovers get on my case........they taste damn good with some honey mustard!

My DDR3 on the sticker on the sticks says 2.1v max
