Well...I guess....in that case you can even push it beyond 4266Mhz.....

4000MHz is enough.

I run 1.3625 QPI for nearly a year now, not a single bsod. Done 24H SimRacing events, Rainbow Six Siege (nearly maxes out the CPU)...Stress tests, I've only done 1H 30Min of Prime Blend.

Oh, and I run 24GB of ram with the QPI (UCLK) Speed at 3600. Ram is at 1700.

Good to know....I Push my QPI on 1,31 in bios just few days ago......I also have 24gb 3x8 gb on 1333Mhz

Is it your ram rated 1333MHz?

Yeah...but it´s a bit underclocked atm because of the multiplayer....... it´s actually working on 1266Mhz

I don't know everyone needs but why 1333Mhz when you could get at least 1600mhz/ 1866.

I guess that slow RAM speed stays with me back from the DDR2 days,RAM-longevity is my goal .....also to be honest the difference is mostly negligible when it comes to the every day use and many tests shows that...

He he he...TY....but I am....to be honest I´ll could said DDR(1) but I forgot what speed I was using back in those days :laugh:

...hmmm....maybe that´s a first sign of alzheimer??? :kookoo:

You're jut 3 years older than me, i can remember back in those days DDR1, what was that 266Mhz/333Mhz/400Mhz? :laugh:

somewhere i have some DDR1.

Well I am sure that back then I must be on 266 or in best case scenario 333Mhz

........BTW is there any gain of OC V on CPU PLL?

I have it Auto, never touched it.

Kingmax Hardcore DDR500 @ 582 with 2.5-3-3-5-1T timings

Proper gems from the DDR1 era...i must be getting old...

CPU PLL, the lower the better on Westmere Xeons. My board cant run lower than 1.80V, but some EVGA? Boards can, lowering that to 1.55-1.7 can yield better results

Hey thx.....minimum on my ASUS P6X58D Premium is 1.80V also,I tried also1,82V-1,88V didn´t see any difference in stability or performance except that my cores getting few degrees hotter......

Can't you lower it?

No....1.80V is the minimum on my mobo as I said above......Maybe you have that option on your"Fancy" board :eek:

OneMoar · Oct 15, 2017

anybody need some lga 771 xeons I got a stack of about 20 I need to sort and see if they work
looking for a board or a board I can use a lga 771 >> 775 adapter

Yes i have it and i can lower it.

Cool.....well...maybe if you get really bored one day....you can try and see how´ the lower CPU PLL V effect your Xeon ......

X58 performance heavily relies on UNCORE speed. A 4GHz chip can outrun a 4.4GHz one if UNCORE speed on the latter is not set high enough. 3400-3600 seems to be the sweet spot in Voltage vs Clocks metric.

FireFox · Oct 16, 2017

Mine is at 3758.5MHz

As there seemed to be a few X58 builds in here, I thought I'd share some of mine if that was ok I hope
