G.Skill Trident X 2666

im on now if you are free.

Quickly tried 125x 35 with those settings and get a code 79, not sure why im having no luck with the 125 strap.

*update* Logged in now with 131 x 35. For some reason, i wont boot when using an offset. Changing it to a fixed vcore worked

Working at the mo mate I cant MSN I am affraid. I will be on later though.
 
hmm, i can run 131x35 2444 stable, however im not sure I can consider this an option for 24/7 because I need to run an offset Vcore to keep the volts down when idling.

Unfortunately using a 125 strap means i have to use a fixed voltage as the boot hangs at 79 if i use an offset. Ive tried adding a 1.31V startup voltage, which does not work.

Any suggestions?
 
My CPU's offset is 1.29v, which works well for my set up and have been using it for all my overclocks up to 5.1ghz. Will definitely change that to a fixed vcore using the 131x40+ for benching though.

Was looking at my previous bios setting before our discussion and noticed the VTT and VCCSA (Both on Auto) were set at 1.3!! Glad this has indirectly been sorted as well as quite a few other settings in the Bios lol

Is there anything more we can do with those settings at 2400 and 2444? I have tried 9-11-10-24 individually, all fail to work at 2400 settings so, not sure how much more we can change.

They are not gonna do CAS 9 at 2400 with less than 1.75v. They are designed for high mhz and not low CAS. The timings you have for the speed are tight and give good performance. I would not worry too much now as you have a good tuned profile going on there.

They may do 9-11-10-25 1T but you would have to back out TRFC so much it would become pointless and you would still need high volts. 10-12-11-25 is the sweet spot for these sticks, My kit will do that at 1T all the way upto 2750mhz and to 2933 on the cold. They like this setting.

Dont set auto with this board for high memory speeds they set a value so even weak IMC's will boot hence you seeing 1.3v. Tune VTT an VCCSA down to the lowest which remains stable.
