No crash to desktop, complete freeze or signal loss to monitor and freeze.

Only twice out of the many many times it has done this has it actually created a dump file (which both included direct x and nvidia), and it does it on every single game

how much qpi/vtt are you using? stock will be 1.05v but 16gb usually needs a bump maybe 1.08-1.1v see if that helps max safe is 1.2v but you shouldn't need that much

P3N9U1N · 3 Mar 2013 at 17:13

it was set to auto and has been since i got this board back when it came out, and this problem only started a few weeks ago.

Just bumped it up to 1.15 and that has got rid of my DPC latency problem that has plagued me for months, so thanks for that

.

Have to do some more sleuthing to see if it fixes these freezes.

wazza300 · 3 Mar 2013 at 17:19

I can only think of a voltage somewhere,could be drivers idk,usually freezing like that is down to pc memory or gpu memory

you can test by downclocking gpu memory by 100-200mhz and test in games if its stable youll know its that

P3N9U1N · 3 Mar 2013 at 17:24

GPU isn't overclocked and never has been, cant really overclock the 590 much but i'll give downclocking a go. Appreciate it

Sounds more like the UD5 freeze bug to me. Do you have all the usual fixes in place (Set BCLK to 100.1, flash both bioses to the same etc etc)?

Sorry to kinda not read the whole thread but I have been having a problem with playing videos and almost like it's speeding up a few frames every so often and I think it might be the DPC latency as when it happens it does rise ever so slightly but still in the green. Am I right in saying that you solved your problem by upping the voltage to your memory? I have noticed Far Cry 3 is actually doing the same thing as the videos come to think of it. The frame rate isn't changing but it just feels strange. Also it wasn't happening till a few weeks ago.

Edit: I notice we have the same ram as well.

He adjusted qpi/vtt from stock 1.05v to 1.15v

Tobes · 4 Mar 2013 at 20:32

I couldn't seem to change the setting as I think it's a option in another menu but I really haven't looked at the settings for this mobo yet so will do that over the weekend. However I did change something from disabled to profile1 and would you look at that. Latency is gone in videos and in Far Cry 3 heh.

wazza300 · 4 Mar 2013 at 20:35

Soundslike you enabled xmp,it sets up your memory speed/timings/voltages including qpi/vtt,good job on that

Tobes · 4 Mar 2013 at 20:37

Yeah check me out and I the master geek of these forums. If anyone has any overclocking questions and wants to know how to apply the icecream to get the best scores on your clocks then come to me and I will show you how to voltage your north bridge.

Unfortunately XMP did not set Vtt/IMC voltage,so it's stay on default.
Usually XMP set higher Vdimm voltage then 1.65V.
Basic...if you have 2x4GB RAM....manually set Vtt to 1.10V and 2x8 (4x4)GB set Vtt to 1.15V.

Q: i have 4x4GB memory Corsair XMS3 (https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-290-CS) total 16GB
what voltage is safe to set on those?atm i have 1.6,but i read somwhere that its to much for Intel pcu's IMC ?
using F14 bios btw

silent · 5 Mar 2013 at 14:37

i have an issue. i have 5 hard drives, a bluray drive and a recently added dvd-rw. my blu ray is a reader only - doh!

i have power and everything connected correctly but the dvd-rw is not detected. i've switched scables and ports but nowt. blu ray is detected fine.

1 have an ssd and a 2tb plugged into the sata 3 ports, the other stuff in the other 6 ports. is there a maximum win 8 detects? or is it a mobo prob. running F14 bios.

upto 1.65v dram voltage is fine on ivy,

should detect it fine if its a sata drive

I own gigabyte z77x-ud5h and want change for
Asus Z77 Maximus V Formula Intel Z77 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-541-AS&groupid=701&catid=5&subcat=
Im use pc for web browsing and pc gaming.
I have 2 months before few times blue screen..so im replace ssd vertex4 for intel and now is ok.
What do you think guys..which board you suggest me?

I am sorry to tell you, but changing your motherboard may not prevent BSOD. These errors can have a number of causes, including over heating, unstable overclocks.

jaaa1976 · 6 Mar 2013 at 22:45

Ok...understand...which motherboard is more stable...i have procesor i7 3770k

Tobes · 7 Mar 2013 at 01:01

You're asking in a UD5H thread which motherboard you should have for a 3770k? Everyone here is going to say the UD5H. The motherboard you currently have. Because we are all very happy with this motherboard and we don't get BSODs. You really need to troubleshoot your setup and Windows 7 install because it's most likely a driver issue and not a motherboard one.
