I havent really tried clocking the memory, its default is 2133mhz @ 10.11.10.28 1.5v, I just set it to 2200mhz @ 10.11.10.28 1.65v kept everything else on auto and away I went.

I see the first 4 settings on the RAM stickers but the BIOS has like 20 settings, where can I find what all these settings should be and what program within windows shows me what they are set to? CPUz only shows CL, tRCD, tRP, tRAS and CR.

I have Muskin Blackline 2x4gb 2133mhz 1.5v sticks.

PGI's getting a bit close to me for my liking, may need some additional knowledge to squeeze a few more points out ;)

My bios is the same, around 20 options per stick, everything is on auto apart from the main 4 timing + command rate and soon tfrc.

Not a clue how well the black lines clock, though apparently z77/ib has a decent imc for memory clocks. Is your memory at 1 or 2t?

Will be perfecting a 5ghz+ clock as soon as I get the gpu block ;)

After having a read of this I thought I'd do a little testing whilst I go out to my jobs.

I setup the XMP profile which gave me 10.11.10.30 1T @ 1.5v and run MemTest. It threw up 2 errors after like 5 mins.

I rebooted and upped the vdimm voltage from 1.5 to 1.525v and restested, it ran for around an hour but errored again.

I'm now running the same test at the same timings with 1.55v and 'so far' looks okay although only been running for about an hour.

Not sure what kind of difference this will make with the system itself but I dont like ANY errors! :)
 
Nice! What clocks were you running on the GTX 680?

I reckon i could squeeze a bit more performance out of this card, maybe get it to 1185-1190

EDIT sorry was mis reading precision x, didn't realise there was a graph at the bottom.

core 1240Mhz
memory 3500MHz

I can't get it any quicker than that, i can finish 3d mark but i get a much lower score if i push it any further :mad:

I think its the heat throttling the voltage when it hits 70c.
