wow awesome speed :D sub 1:36 possible? :D

dang evga is fast....

And definitely wont match a 980X with 3 second advantage LOL

yay you did some subtimings! :) good work mate :good:

Going to try to get it to boot again and re-run...just to make sure it wasnt a fluke or bugged. :thumbsup:

looking at your results...you didn't set maxmem...920s can definitely play with the 980s...also your 448x isn't optimize....use a different multi...

That is because maxmem was not helping on that install.

New install last couple of days using XP and maxmem... it makes a differnce on XP, but still having trouble beating my FLP times. I am not home tonight, will give it more of a shot tomorrow night.

No go on the boot yet. I will fool with it some more...been having the same problem last couple days with different mb's, memory and cpu's. Unsure if I am killing hardware or something else. Only thing I have not tried is a different psu.

what kinda ram volts you using?

1.74 - I have noticed it takes a lot more vcore/vtt for me to boot into XP than most others...could that be a sign of a psu losing it's mojo? I just find it odd that I am having the same problem with other mb's and chips as well. :Dizzy:

vcore? vtt? what is your 12v rail measurement? mine is steady @ 12.10 :D i love my psu....

anyways rams could be culprit these hypers are super sensitive...

also the removable heatsinks on the dominators....are ok..but the thermal pad they use is too thin...i had to use my own thermalpads so they have good contact....

Same problems with different ram tho Honda. I have not taken any measurements on the psu...it is the same PC Power & Cooling 1200 I have had forever.

980x with 1.528v is too much for air/water .....instant degrade...

during bootup....psu isn't stressed much....with aircooling settings..

nice you have good sticks, thats not too much volts for ram :) if its doing the same thing with different chips and boards it must to be the chips or boards :thumbsup: psu and ram are the only possibilities really.

you are using to much vcore for the 980x though stay under 1.5v unless you start tossing icecubes in

I am so stupid! :argh: It has been the psu all along...plugged in the Antec and she took off like a rocket. Here is a follow up run to show the first wasnt a fluke. :thumbsup:

Me so horny that 980X lives! :rofl

good thing i never bought that turbocool1200...fukcing expensive and ocz doesn't have money for rma'ing that..lol

i suggest antec hcp1200 :D

Looks like Rick is rolling hot and it will take a 980X to beat his 980X in SPI. I think I might can squeeze some PiFast passt him (had a low 18.6ties) but no fucking way I can do better than his 980X. :Dizzy: Pretty sad! :ohcrap:

i been trying cut down the speed but nothing...
i just can't get this sub 1.40 on super pi 8m at all!

idk why even i lowered the timing it's still high?
would it just maybe the timing is too low?

Man I havn't even got my XP partition installed yet ..... :shock:

FACE?
i was just looking on the FTP and then i just saw the MRI 5.1.1 where did you get that from?
http://www.overclockingalliance.com/...RI5.1.1.ISO.7z

are you doing wazza?

yeah!

should i try it with 2003?

2003 doesn't have sp3 enhancements i think....

Keep getting errors now (not exactly square, ect)...isnt there some process where you delete some files to correct this?

i dont' really understand the ideas of service packs (updates).. i means yeah every day use great! but what dose it help you with benches? isn't that less things your computer has to run the better it is? i normally run everything with Windows XP SP1 i never went to XP SP2 and didn't go to SP3 till 7 came out :D

:keeporder:

Our's is not to reason why...results are what matters. :)

got to spi folder..delete data or dat files

sp1 for win7 has a performance increase...
sp2 and sp3 for windows xp had performance increase...

they changed some codes in there to improve 2d and 3d...fyi

:ohcrap:
windows 7 sp1 is already OUT!
where the hell have i been!

but yeah i see

indeed sir

Thanks Honda but I am still getting the errors.

need more vdimm :D

Been running all this time at 1.74 - why all of a sudden does it need more? Relaxing all the sub-timings seems to make no difference...I even deleted/re-installed the bench to no avail.

delete the spi folder completely?

Deleted everything and started fresh...I will have to pick this up later as it's time for me to go to work. Hit it hard folks! :good:

uncore too high? chip is degrading, memory is degrading try a different OS install? 1 mem stick at a time, try different chip. some things to try :)

I believe just the beta is out.

I have a another question here. I cant use my MemSet to change the mem timings. Its like locked or something. Any fix to that?

oh thank god i am not too fair off :taunt:

memset hasn't been updated for so long...try cpu tweaker...

memset is for chips that dont have IMC on die I think? :)
