oh so it's okay then, tomorrow I'll be picking up a Gigabyte GA-990XA-UD3. thanks for the answers.

Yeah, I mean you should be able to. The addition of L3 cache, when comparing to Phenom II, can POSSIBLY add some instabilities and a little bit more difficult to get higher dram throughput & bandwith. I don't foresee an issue and very highly beleive you won't have a problem doing it at all.

Again as long as you can back it up with tight timings the results can be great. 1800 CL7 performs a little tad better on this @ 2.7Ghz CPU-NB than 1600 CL6

I bought a 6770 on ebay, because newegg was sold out yesterday. It should be here between the 22nd and the 4th; Such a narrow time slot, lol

Nice! I know u will enjoy.

I'm looking at just flashing my two HD5770's to 6770 bios's there's only one difference between them and thats HDMI 1.4

Its been done. I read a thread on here with someone who did it successfully but I couldn't find it again.

de.das.dude · Dec 19, 2011

yeah, they are the same.

I got my Ripjaws X 1600, and was overclocking em. I got them to be happy at 1824, but every other time I boot to windows OC'd, my amd drivers crash. If I revert RAM to 1600, everything is fine. This is really bugging me now.

DeAtHWiSh · Dec 20, 2011

Just started running 4 gigs today with the new board. Crunching and benched.

Edit: Just realized I was running old drivers, updating now. (not sure if it would make a difference though.)

either the timings are too tight at those speeds or the voltage isnt high enough or you have a set that is solely intended to run at 1600 and nothing faster

Irony · Dec 20, 2011

The timings are 8-8-8-24

Try tweaking subtimings. Mainly tRFC & tRD.

Play around with CPU tweaker a bit.

http://www.tweakers.fr/cputweaker.html

Also pay no attention to my "Core" speed in that screenshot, I keep CnQ enabled when I overclock. I know I shouldn't but ....

Irony · Dec 20, 2011

I use CnQ too. It doesn't cause me any troubles.

Okay, I got CPU tweaker, and I was messing with timings, and then I fired up skyrim (just because) and fraps read 650 fps. So I started moving around, and I was running like 200 mph, so I decided to discover as much of the map as I could. I ran around from riverwood, to solitude markath and dawnstar, and I still don't know what the glitch was. I discovered a bunch of new stuff I hadn't seen before.

Now I'll get back to ram.

Edit: Here it is at 1840.

JrRacinFan · Dec 20, 2011

Bring your dram frequency down a notch and tighten some timings some. Look at my maxmem for example. Running the same band with along with tighter timings at a lower nb frequency.

Irony · Dec 20, 2011

I tried that. It wont boot above 1600 unless NB is at 3000. Also, if I lower timings at all it wont boot. Unless its at 1600.

Kind of odd but cool also in a sense. :rockout:

good stuff! Keep it there and be merry!

Irony · Dec 20, 2011

I will

I started a thread Here for Cinebench scores.

someone teach me! i wanna get higher than 3.8, just got an amazing deal on some good ram and my pcu is watercooled

any suggestions?

de.das.dude · Dec 24, 2011

get better board. but i think 3.8 is ur limit.

Yeah you might need a mobo with better power phase. Check this thread http://www.overclock.net/t/946407/amd-motherboard-vrm-information-list and notice you have a 4+1, would want to look into a 8 phase for serious overclocking. Or list what your bios settings are at and suggestions can be made from there.

TheoneandonlyMrK · Dec 24, 2011

ive been nice to myself this christmass ive a phenomII 960T and a crosshairV to play with this year so ill be visiting here a Lot .

I can hit 4.0 with my 1055T and a GIGABYTE 880GA-UD3H

As suggested post some BIOS settings or at least CPU-z or something so we can see what more or less you have stuff set up at.

Spartan805 · Dec 26, 2011

HEy guys, having trouble with my OC @ 250x 14Multi. I keep getting AMD DRIVER CRASHES, I just added 2 more 2gb dimms. I think that's the culprit . It was fine with 2x2gb, but the 4x2gb is not good. I can't run BF3 in CFX in anything other than LOW, 8GB is running better. it crashes only during non gaming task.

Any ideas???
