I know right? remember the overclock mode has mode 1 and 2 and auto. We asked the bios engineer and he had no clue it was even there.

Note - Uncore setting will now scale with BCLK settings when set to Auto. Manual settings will be required when running BCLKs over 220 to ensure stability and improved BCLK rates.

Note - LN2 Modes might need to be adjusted to improve cold clocking capabilities. Auto = LN2 mode 2, setting to LN2 Mode 1 will result in potentially better overclocking below -140C. This is dependent upon CPU quality and cooling.

My cpu liked 704 better.

Wish I had one that would get that cold. On my second GT now both 3003B and 3005F CBugged around -110 to -113 I can barely bench at those temps.

Will have to try a 3rd time

cb is somehow affected by ram....

Yep I tried 1x2x&3x no luck ram doesn't help my CB only my CBB. Tried all BIOSes too.

I don't wanna kill my good old i5 ram's (GSkill perfect storm) w/ 1.9vdimm they are rare I might try with my new sticks.

After a certain vdimm I'm sure they will throw errors.

Will give that a shot only tried 1&2... (closest to the cpu and the middle slot).

Does S.pi32m lose a lot of performance from triple channel to dual channel?
