E758 22x multi

[Neuromancer]

Anyway to disable that without losing the 21x multi?

I tried disabling turbo, but it will not let me set 21x in the BIOS

If I am going to get up to 5 Giga HURTS I need the 21x multi :)

Could not figure out why I was having so much trouble at 4.67 HTT last night until I saw the 22x multi on core0 in E-Leet. Then I realized I was pushing almost 4.9 on one core... pretty sure that 1.45 volts is not enough for that LOL


Saw on other boards you can disable C state (separate from CxE IIRC) to stop 22x multiplier. But I do not have that option in the BIOS unlike my super cheap MSI board.

So far this board is amazingly strong, but so damn finicky and buggy:scared:

[DrNip]

I'm confused. What CPU you running?

[Neuromancer]

i7 920

[DrNip]

That's what I thought you were talking. Now I am really confused with the whole 22 mult talk.

[Witchdoctor]

Me as well.....? I thought 21 was max with turbo on for the 920...?

I have one coming so I will be learning with you .......

My Gigabyte was rock solid ...... we will see what EVGA has on the table but rumor has it 235 is obtaiable on this board ....... not quite 5Ghz ......
Time will tell man as I am bringing it cold .................

Turbo mode adds 2x multi on core 0 and 1x multi on cores 1-3.

Might want to rig up a chiller and push the volts....

I would imagine that the extra 1x multi would help out on 2d benchies, but I have been wrong before. :Hi:

[Neuromancer]

Oh yah I DO intend to take advantage of the 22X multi later ;)

Would like to disable it though for now. Guess I can try the 20X multi, just means 5% more BUS needed. Since I have also read that even multis do not clock as well that would mean dropping down to 19x though. Which is unacceptable :(


Will play around with 20X tonight and see what I can get done

[DrNip]

As far as I know some mobos will allow for a 22 mult on core 0 if you change some settings in the bios to certain things but only a few mobos allow for this. Not to mention you can get real high MHz with this mult so it is pretty much pointless and I doubt you will obtain 5ghz with it. Still confused as why you would want the 22 mult. Your best bet is 21 mult.

[Neuromancer]

I do not want the 22X multi, I want to get rid of it :p

So far only solution I was able to find was changing Cstate, but no option for that in BIOS (except CxE which is already disabled)

Here I shut off 3 cores to use 22x multi for 2D benching.

[Witchdoctor]

I need to learn how to access this multi....

may help in PI Fast and SPI .....
Anybody do any testing on this ..... ?

[Splave]

even multis are shit on i7

e-leet always has 22 21 21 21, first core always being 1 higher. Doesnt mean you are running x22

search XS for uncle webs turbo tool and it will tell you what you are at. What does cpu-z say?

[Neuromancer]

cpuz is unreliable IMHO

Told me I was throttled down to 19x multi yet pulled my best Wprime times to dats (more than 10 seconds faster)


and goat, yes I had every intention of doing that, I have just been using affinity though for now

Some wierd bug about 4.6 GHz on this setup Disabled HTT and can only get 40 MHZ higher. MSI board I could becnh at settings this setup will not run on, which is why I asked about disabling 22x multi. :) If I could 4.7 ish stable across all cores at 21 its much better than 4.55 across three and 4.75 on a single. Eleet does not let you drop the 22x either :(

I could be wrong, but.. you know, I'm not :)

As for turbo tool as he fixed it to handle the 22x multi on a single core? I have not seen any screens saying 21.25 actual multi. (which would be the mean of 22x-21x-21x-21x)

I noticed when I went to the EVGA board, I had to run more volts than I was accustomed to on the Asus MB.

OT: On intel cpu's it's called HT, for Hyper-Threading. It's been bugging me everytime you type HTT. Must be a carry over from AMD.

[DrNip]

Unclewebb's multiboost might fix your problem. I know it was a temporary fix for my DFI when the bios was having issues with windows 7 and 12 mult.

[RomDominance]

Dude, its doing everything correctly. There is a bug in the chip bios once you get your bclk up above around 243-250 where you will see a 22 or 23 multi on a 920, but your no where near that. I also think your not gonna get higher than 4.65GHz benchable on water. To get to 4.9 your gonna need at least SS, just the facts. :alien:

Actually it is HTT on Intel and HT for AMD it bugs ME every time someone gets it backwards :)


Reason?

Hyper-Threading Technology is a hyphenated word, therefore when abbreviating you use both first letters in the word. HyperTransport Technology is just a messed up "logo-ized" version of Hypertransport Technology. Intel abbreviates it as HT Technology. Shortened further would be HT Tech or HTT

Both companies always use the word Technology afterwards.

If it was HT because we do not add the T for technology, than HyperTransport Technology would be abbreviated H, which would confuse everyone :)
