Oh man... loved my 1650 as well... also did 4.7. Also loved my 1680... not as fast but 8 cores. Still have them sitting in cpu cases on display. If I was a gamer... wouldn't have gone 2697.
Oh well, the high speed xeons were fun....

I had mine at 4.8ghz for a bit. If I really wanted to I'm sure I could run at 4.9, but that 200w limit is a pain and I don't feel like burning out the EPS connector.

The E5 26xx V3's are CPU limited to DDR4 2100 memory, the V4's to 2400.

Depends on the motherboard.

Sad day to say that my dad passed away early hours of this morning so I be off the scene for awhile until further notices

Take care, I hope the best for your family. Remember, you don't need to be sick to need help. Reach out to anyone if things get too rough.

All I can do is support mum through out the ordeal that we have to face in the next 6 months or more I try and keep in touch with the forum as much as I can but can't make promises due to the severely of the situation I could be laid up a lot longer

johnspack · Nov 30, 2021

Sorry Ed... lost both my mom and dad already to cancer. Wasn't ready to let either of them go.

Death is always a tough thing. Do what you need to do to take care of your mum. We'll be here when you come back! :toast:

Update on my 1680v2/R4E: Tried every official BIOS from 4502 to 4901 and every one of them failed under the same workload of MSFS 2020 downloading and installing game files. Now some lasted longer than others, but the all eventually resulted in the same crash.

Current plan is to try a different seller for the 1680v2 and if it continues I will probably throw int the towel for at least a couple of months and just use my 3930K again.

Thanks guys for the help you provided.

Did you run Memtest on your RAM?

If a different 1680V2 from different seller still has glitches, then most likely your board is faulty. I had to buy 3 Rampage IV Black Edition boards to finally get a good board for 1680V2 which had been working fine on Rampage IV Extreme and P9X79 Deluxe. https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/...-of-us-still-left.225209/page-74#post-4660083

i just bought an x79 board with an i7 3820
and I have a problem, when I put 2660v2 radeon 280x does not work (gpu light lights red) the same happens with 2690, and when I put i7 3820 in board everything works normally. my board is asus sabertoot x79, does anyone know what it is about?

one more thing 2660v2 overclocks (using bclk) to 114 and 2690 only to 106 is that normal?

Maybe you didn't update your motherboard bios...check that....beside that I have X79 Sabertooth also and it's working totally fine with V2 Xeons and R9 GPU.....

Wdoox · Dec 9, 2021

my bios is 4801 beta for sabertooth x79

Bclk always differs between chips, memory, board, etc. If you wanted to overclock your best bet would've been a 1680v2.

Well I am using also 4801 beta bios and not heaving any problems with Xeon 2697 V2 12c/24t paired with R9 Fury so maybe you doing something wrong in bios settings or maybe some of your hardware have malfunction......

Glad you fix the issue...also now if you want you can try and download NEW NimeZ drivers for older and not supported AMD GPU's.....they working really nice with GCN cards.....

My mum and I are in the process of moving into the temporary house soon so it could be sometime January that I be able to bring my custom computer there. Just hoping that my Samsung curved monitor is still working after it had a fall as I think it hit the top right or top left corner of the plastic bezel or back cover since I don't see any sort of crack appearing in the LCD screen. Will be awhile for a post of it working

Toothless · Dec 20, 2021

Phone doesn't know what it means to focus, but test bench is finally all ready to go!

Edwired · Dec 21, 2021

Well bit the bullet decided to check my computer yesterday night thankfully all is working including the Samsung curved monitor. Only problem is the smell of smoke and some sort of rust appearing on the tips of the USB cables. Will have to do the tear down and cleaning some day soon. Just trying to remember where I put the thermal paste and might have to replace the fans due to the dust getting into the bearings

Edwired · Jan 11, 2022

Been busy lately got about 60% of the cleaning done on my pc only thing that got discoloured is the heat sink and the northbridge the pipes got like a black glossy effect to it no matter what I did to clean it it just won't come off but it not effecting the temperature in anyway
