So the chip it seems can do 5.5Ghz,http://hwbot.org/community/submission/2137823_

but not able to figure out the chip at all. Some of the SB chips IMC is so bad that it cannot handle 2 sticks after a certain CPU speed???, even when they are running at like 1333Mhz??? Have tried Vtt upto 1.36V, and System Agent upto 0.975. I am ready to pull out my hair at this point, air overclocking seems more difficult than LN2 overclocking at the moment to me. No point in having a chip which cannot clock memory.

Ack, that sucks banik, I haven't touched this platform yet maybe splave has some hints?

not that I have seen, sandy bridge IMC is amazing. you are at 6-6-6 900+ and calling it bad IMC?!$@#? Use 2133 and 7-7-7 is faster though. Def need dual channel, maybe you have a bad stick or the board doesn't like 1gb sticks of hyper

my settings for binning

1.575vCore
0.875vCCSA
1.1875vCCIO
1.7vDIMM
1.15vPCH

Starting at 52, increase multi by 1 and boot. Hit a wall and increase vCore, still walled, decrease bclk...then throw it in the garbage with the 20 other chips suck ballz

Looks like 2 of my mobo pins got bent which was causing all kind of different problems. Got fed up and opened up the setup, and have tried bending them straight, looks ok to me now. Setup is behaving the way its supposed to be now.

binning some 7600gt's rofl! I found that I have 3 of them wtf? didnt know I had 1

Cleaning out the closets FTW ......... :thumbsup:


Just hit the buy button on a M4E ....

Impacience got the best of me, so I gave up a bit of PCIe bandwidth :ohcrap:

shammy backed board gotta be win

Thats awesome news! :thumbsup:

where did u find the M4E ?

so is the ud7 the only one with two x16 pci-e with 2 cards ?

yes but lose 2d performance with nf200
