hey guys i need your help on this one...I can't get my 920 to post at 170bclk or above. I've tried vcore up to 1.4 and 1.35vtt and it just won't post. memory is at 2:8 (1332mhz), uncore is at 16x. I'm prime stable right now at 3.5ghz 167bclk with a true. temps don't go above 55C so cooling isn't an issue. is there major setting I completely overlooked or is my 920 a pos?

Fitseries3 · Feb 21, 2009

1.4v vtt

leave ram on auto as well as uncore. thats what messes things up.

Binge · Feb 21, 2009

Even more proof that these Crucial sticks all have D9JNL chips. Buy @ crucial.com for the best price!

n-ster · Feb 21, 2009

OMG....... the prices of the RAM went up... 5$ for 3gb kit 20$ for the 6gb... now its 105$ for the 6gb

still a great buy but.......

Binge · Feb 21, 2009

Buy them @ Crucial.com. It's that simple

They are Micron D9 chips, at a great price.

Oh ok. I was like wtf? Why are y'all going crazy over this ram. :laugh:

coodiggy · Feb 21, 2009

FYI crucial = micron err, or is it micron = crucial?

I think we need to make sure that the 1366 mounting is included, because when I created a shopping cart, the 1366 mounting was a "recommended accessory"

They sell the HK3.0 in 1366 and 775 versions. The recommended accessory is only the backplate and you can install it without one. You just have to use the nuts. I'm gonna clarify the shopping list here...

Binge - 2 Heatkiller 1366 LT blocks
Paulieg - 1 Heatkiller 1366 (not decided on which), 1 backplate
DanishDevil - 1 Heatkiller 775 LT block, 1 775 backplate
Myself - 1 Heatkiller 1366 LT block, 1 backplate, some fans

I'm gonna keep the Euro/USD exchange rate the way it is right now according to Google: 1 Euro = 1.28400 U.S. dollars
That's for those who don't know how to PayPal foreign currency

damnit i tried 1.33vcore, 1.4vtt, uncore, vdimm (tried 1.6vdimm as well) and ram timings on auto and it still won't post at 173bclk. i dropped the multi down to 12x and it doesn't post either. batch is 3838a and according to google its a pretty bad batch. any way i can rma the chip?

Fitseries3 · Feb 22, 2009

give it really high volts and then tell intel that you are having intermittent failures.

DD decided to wait out for a bit, no harm.

I'm sending Binge and Paulie PM's after this post to confirm everything, gonna order in some 4 hours.

Fitseries3 · Feb 22, 2009

WTF man...

my DFI is slowly dying i think.

1st the lan port now it wont boot. im getting bsod and reboots before i can even get into windows.

this is at stock settings. no overclock at all.

i cant even reload windows because it stops responding while reading the dvd.

WTF is the deal lately?

Thrackan · Feb 22, 2009

Weird stuff... Some problem in the power circuits maybe?

Fitseries3 · Feb 22, 2009

now i officially have a reason to be super pissed.

this fucking board wont run 2 295's at all. i cant even boot with 2 cards in.

Wow, that's odd. I just did some benching with 2 4870's just fine. You just got a bum board. Sorry man.

Fitseries3 · Feb 22, 2009

no... DFI doesnt support 2 295's on this board. what a shitty idea. force people to get the more expensive board for it.

Man this is just a bonehead move on DFI part! :banghead:

Fitseries3 · Feb 22, 2009

im getting the boot loop bullshit.

post, reboot, post, reboot, etc

Just the 295's, or no support for any SLI config? The box/manual states it supports SLI.

Fitseries3 · Feb 22, 2009

i only have 2 295's.

one works fine. both alone work fine. but 2 on the board wont boot at all. only post

jbunch07 · Feb 22, 2009

Man, That sucks. Any ideas why? Or is does it simply not support it?

freakshow · Feb 22, 2009
