firstly congrats, have a feeling your gonna be very busy

system in sig, and have since added another 2 sticks, can you give any advice on timings, i have tried 1t but just wont go, it did with 2 sticks and went upto 2.5GHz

on my current overclock profile if i set my ram to manual/link instead of xmp/auto and use the timings 10-14-12-31 2t i get bsod code 50 which i believe is unstable timings/frequency
 
can we just focus on the 2 sticks, like i said i dont need 16GB(for now), they seem to play havoc when trying to oc.
oh and just off topic, my cpu is very voltage hungry to get stable, at 4.8 i need at least 1.5v to get a benchmark in(say vantage) yet my VID reads 1.336, what other voltage can i push besides vcore???
 
again to give you more info, whilst oc'ing been getting various bsod's and codes, 3b,24,50 etc but one common denominator is that ntoskrnl.exe is also being shown, which i believe is linked to memory??? would bad timings give this??
 
LLC?? Vdroop offset control is set to 100%
Been having a play with clocks today, and just with my 2 newer sticks of ram it appears i need less vcore now for 4.8, still 1.45v mind!! i NEED one of those binned chips!!

I'll work on a 24/7 setting tomorrow and will post then, Thx for your time 8Pack
 
haha sorry,

its a strange board if theres no llc options,they normally come in levels 1-5 or low to extreme

unless it applies it automatically idk?

:) theres an option called digital compensation level??? options are High or auto

to be honest i'm nearly tempted to try a different board due to the lack of info on it.
 
that soundlike it!! try it and see if it reduces the droop

that was strange???

left all settings the same but set digital compensation level to high
Ran IBT on max, no change to voltage when idle or at 100%
bsod after 5 secs with error code 101, increase vcore i believe
 
Its stable upto about 4.6GHz when pushing further gettings bsod's due to timings/frequency, presume i need to slacken them. Have left the ram speed at 1600 when pushing cpu but cos everything is on auto i'm presuming its tightening the timings due to the slower speed.

Auto vccio does seem high at 1.25, thought it should be around the 1.1 mark.

Will do some tests tom and post results.

Run TRCD at 12 if you can and test this is the first port of call for tuning as is enabling 1T command rate. Then TRAS 28 for those dimms and report back.

ok will try that next

just been playin, heres my results

vcore 1.405
IO 1.25
dram (auto) 1.674
SA 1.105
PLL 1.6
vdroop offset 100%
Pll overvoltage, enabled
digital comp level, high
ocp expander, high

have run the following on the above settings all without problems

aida64 stabillity test, 30 mins
IBT 10 runs on max
catzilla
vantage
cinebench

edit: prime is giving errors after 15 mins, i shall knock the cpu clock down and re test.

edit: dropped clocks to 4.4 and ran prime for 25 mins and no probs/errors, so from this the ram is fine but the OC needs a v.bump, so i either give it a bump(but already at the 24/7 limit) or drop the oc :(
