Damn, mine's 4.6 with x46 and 1.225v. You sure you can't go down on the volts?

Going to read up on that link.

Ah, my UD4 is still down, bringing it up today. Will see how that goes. Using a p8p67 pro on the other one, and that was weird. All the energy saving features need to be on for you to be able to OC. :confused:

OK, here's the settings I use. For the majority of voltages I'm just entering manually the defaults. Hope it helps:
==AI TWEAKER==
Ai OVerclock Tuner [Manual]
BCLK/PEG Frequency [100.0]
Turbo Ratio [By all cores]
By all cores [46]
Memory Frequency [DDR3-1600Mhz]
EPU Power Saving mode [Disabled]

-Digi+ VRM-
Load-line Calibration [Ultra high]
VRM Frequency [Auto]
VRM Spread Spectrum [Disabled]
Phase control [Standard]
Duty Control [Extreme]
CPU Current Capability [110%]


--
CPU Voltage [Manual Mode]
CPU Manual Voltage [1.225]
DRAM Voltage [1.500]
VCCSA [0.925]
VCCIO [1.0625]
CPU PLL [1.800]
PCH [1.060]
CPU Spread Spectrum [Disabled]
So far those settings have been 24/7 stable.

That's great - thank you.

I'm also going to use the EVO software that comes with a lot of Asus boards. It autotunes the board and then you can make your own modifications.

What I do is roll back the NB speed and increase the multiplier. But it depends on what memory speed I'm using and what the final NB speed is.

Got the other i7 on the UD4 up and running. For this one everything remains the same as default, except Vcore on this one needs 1.34v for 4.6. Either the Asus is very good or the i7 on that board may be golden. Care more about running stable on lowest volts possible than overclocking these days. :ohwell:

I've found it easier to overclock just using the BIOS. You often get more control, and it's easier to test stability. (For stability testing, I recommend Intel Burn Test)

CHIV
2x2gb redline
5850
1000W psu

I don't think you need a 1000w psu. I'd cut back to maybe 750, get at least 2x4gig sticks and an H70. I can see getting 2 1tb drives if you're going RAID but otherwise a 2gig is probably cheaper.

its a combo deal from a friend, that im getting very cheap,

and the psu is silver rated, and i dont deal in overkill....there is no such thing in my world :roll:

its not to piss on your suggestion, its much appreciated :toast:

but cant change a thing until i have the rig in my hands, and the tiger II should have around the same performance as H70 from what i can see

and its an AMD X6, its not like the get very hot :p

if it wasnt for the price i would have gone with SB :rockout:

Ah, ok. But the 5850 only pulls 300watts and TDP on the 1055t is at most 135w IIRC. Even if you did 2 5850's in xfire it would pull under 500w.

Although running the PSU at 50-60% of max will probably increase it's life span, so there is that.

I like the H70 because it has a copper base so you get better heat transfer. And those chips do get hot if you push them. If you're like me though and want a good oc without excessive amounts of tweaking, then yeah, they can run pretty cool even at 4ghz. :cool: :toast:

i know :p but i dont like having psu's that might be too small if i want to upgrade further in the future....been there done that :banghead:

the siberian tiger II is, as i said, and H50 with the dualrad instead

http://www.jonnyguru.com/modules.php?name=NDReviews&op=Story3&reid=119



it has copper base too, and is made by Asetek, the ones making H50/60/70 and H620 by antec

and its a danish company :D

i prolly wont go higher than 4 ghz or maybe 4.2, id rather have a stable 4.0 oc than something around 4.2 that "might" crash one day, if you understand :)

I also still have the 350W PSU for someone that wants to make a cruncher. ill give a 5$ off discount for crunchers so that would be 15$ shipped also on the S478 combo (dont think it can be crunched for good points but the thought counts)

I paid about $580 for each of mine, but the nice thing (not for me) is they will be coming down in price:)

theonedub - you should be able to find one for around $500 or so....
