I don't think I can run it at that or if I did it would be real slow. This i7 is a totally different ball game BIOS wise. |
I was just wondering what those settings do for the ram as i've never messed with them, just sync mode.
|
Today I will be testing the limits of my RAM. I think this is a check. Going to tighten her up some.
CLICKY CLICKY http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...hyperx_1-1.jpg Got to love the RAM cooler. :D CLICKY CLICKY http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/j...IMG_4102-1.jpg |

Damn buddy looking good. Is that vdimm correct in the smart gaurdian?
|
Yeppers.
|
Nice numbers.... and thats a sweet lookin rig!
|
Nip, it looks like you finally got great hardware all the way around. Pwnage is imminent.
|
Thought I zapped the mobo!!! I got scared as it froze up. Upon restarting it it gave me code 88. I reset the CMOS and it gave me a non existing code again like the last mobo. So I pulled the battery and let it sit for a bit and by the grace of the overclocking gods they winked on me and the mobo started up again.

Gettin to 221 bclk is a breeze and that is where I am now. I can get there at really low volts too. Gettin past it is a different story. I am goin to have to buckle down and do a lil research as well trial and error to get past it. I read some where that when you start to get in excess of 221 bclk the pcie clock comes into play. I might need to wait until my pot mount comes in too as I read some cpus just can't hit that high of bclk without cooler temps as I am floating in the upper 40's to lower 90's at these speeds.
|
Its gonna be fun once I eventually get into the i7 action. I wonder if the bios revisions are gonna have any play in increased clock performance.
|
|
I see it, its getting hot in here. :cool:
|
It'll handle more!!!!! :D
|
Here is the highest I have been able to boot. I know the vcore can come down some but I just can't figure it out. I need more practice as I know I am pushin it thru the boot with unnecessary vcore.

Thats pretty damn good on air! I can't wait to see it on dice.
|
Yeah I kinda think I might need to put the pot on her to get her higher as heat is playing a major role on it. Scales better when cooler. Way better.
|
Alrighty. I am getting back in there as I think I have been given her too much volts causing too much heat which in return is limiting my blck. I think. So I am starting from the floor up with less volts and so far I am amazing myself yet again with this lil o gem of a CPU I have. :D

Nice! What do you tweak to get better scores in that bench? I ran one @ 11.578 and thats net bad but I think I can do better.
|
More FSB or BLCK!!!! LOL I really don't know. I am sure there are alot of variables to come into play to make your score better.
|
More FSB?? Not with this board/bios.:mad:
BTW.... I've been seeing you talk about BLCK, what is that anyway?:confused: |
Base Clock. Here, read up on this as it will kinda give you a run down of how to overclock an i7.

I smell another 5ghz overclock on air from u nip.
|
Man I am lovin this shit. Sorry for the language but years and years of wanting a cherry and I finally have one!!!
|
Yeah.... it's looking very possible for a 5ghz on air clock. Amazing indeed!
|
If temps were cooler. Damn why ain't it winter still!!!

I went ahead and dubbed my chip "Golden Graham".
|
lmao Nice one

Significance of the name?
