Honda I'm just air testing prior to nitrogen. I just wanna see what are the best tight timings I can get out of them before cold. I see Bryan's run almost at 2000cas7 and I can't even get near that.

So you say it's because it's on Air? I did the same with my I7 860 tested on air, tight timings all the way to 2400mhz+ and it was about the same after ln2 and these ram did really scale nicely.

different imc's dude....

also the 32nm cores have picky imc's

Kal, did you see any difference in performance between the several pci_e 16x slots? Did you pick one in particular or all of them are good?

this was in the third slot

Think they are all the same, I did hear things about switching ram slots adding a couple mhz in some cases though. Worth a shot

I didn't screen the pci-e slots at all, I just jumpered the excess slots to the off position and used the first slot.

p55 ftw

i tried the 8x slot....it seemed slower..and stupid anyways..lol

i used the nearest to the cpu...it worked out great...

Thanks for the quick replies, I just finished CB/CBB mod.

On this board I decided to go with a switch to turn the mod on and off

CB/CBB Switch:


Mod on OFF position should read 0.75 on dmm:


Mod on ON position should read 0.00 on dmm:

What's the magic trick to get this board to run 2:8 ram divider with the i5?

I already tried upping vtt from 1.3 to 1.6max with no luck. Vdimm from 1.60 to 1.76max. I also used Hiwa's 9 and 7 on R to W and W to R.

Also what's the pch volts supposed to help with? I see shamino's template asks us to use a 1.45pch but sometimes I lock when I'm at 1.4pch and it seems to me that system works perfectly fine with 1.1 and high mhzs.
