I decided to take out the x5675 to see the ihs if it bow out or bow in using the straight metal ruler and light it appears that the ihs is bow inward so i ended up lapping the cpu the four corners were the high points just wanted to level out the core temps abit as core 2 is the lowest reading

Did it help?

 

[Edwired]

Yeah seems to help as been monitoring since as it abit cold out tonight

Knocking on 4ghz door with turbo enabled @ 1.192v according to hwinfo

The highlighted in bold are the i bumped up to maintain stability

Are these setting safe?

 

[Mr.Scott]

Yes.
You're still way under the maximum safe zone.
How's your load temp?

 

[Edwired]

it topped out about 52c during 5 cinebench r20 runs last night since the weather was cold i say it be higher tonight ended up playing games to see the temps it was averaging around 30c to 35c during heavy scenes

 

[Mr.Scott]

Nice. You should be able to break 4 gig no problem.

 

[Edwired]

Got more out of it @Mr.Scott
If you see there differences in the cb point between 3.91ghz no turbo mode scored 1901cb this was manually pushed to this point
With the turbo mode enabled i was getting higher score with a lower blck based 3.87 turbo enabled to 4.20ghz got 2027cb.
It a shame that the cinebench dont see the turbo mode clocks

Might have to lower the QPI/DRAM Core Volt lower to test for stability later on

Heres my voltages

[Mr.Scott]

Nice.
Voltages are still good, as is the temp. Only thing that stands out to me is the CPU PLL. IMO, you should never have to go above the factory 1.8v. Matter of fact, a lot of time you can lower it a little. I've seen it down to 1.6v before, pending the CPU and overclock.

Yeah about the cpu pll it stock number is 1.80 i cant any lower

 

[Zyll Goliat]

Well actually it is possible on some boards to set it lower....but yeah 1,80 is standard...

 

[Edwired]

As the asus p6x58d-e cpu pll wont go any lower on this x5675

 

[masterdeejay]

The Xeon v3 all core hack works on Asus dual socket motherboard.
I dont have yet the cpu-s that i needed. I can test only with one 2620v3.
Base clock was 2.4ghz, aida displays only 3ghz but it works on 3.1-3.2ghz)

i removed the microcode from bios, uploaded the modded with remote BMC, and i added a simple efi driver (not undervolted).

 

[Edwired]

Did abit of tweaking to stablize it abit more

CPU PLL 1.800 V
CPU Voltage 1.26875 V HWINFO reads 1.256v
ICH PCIE 1.500 V
ICH 1.200 V
IOH PCIE 1.500 V
IOH 1.240 V Is this ok for the IMC or what is it for?
QPI/DRAM Core Volt 1.33750 V I dropped this down from 1.35000v
CHA CTRL 0.500 X
CHA DATA 0.500 X

Did the cinebench r20 in realtime priority the cb score jumped from 2023 to 2046 didnt crash as i usually get application error 1000 if i lower the qpi/dram below 1.33750v to 1.33125‬v other than it running good

 

[Mr.Scott]

All your voltages are fine.

 

[freeagent]

I’ve got my ioh at 1.3v and qpi/dram at 1.39v and she’s happy, looks like you are in good shape

I think I’ll buy a new Xeon today, I wouldn’t mind a W series with some memory dividers.

You referring to the x5690?

 

[freeagent]

Yes, it is my main rig again, the kids got my z77.. kinda miss it already. Oh well.

Ouch i know that feeling i kinda missed the asus p5q premiem but loving the asus p6x58d-e. what the settings you got running through that x58

 

[freeagent]

I don’t see my sig on my phone but if you can those are my settings currently. It’s nice and quiet for once. I had cooler master sickle flows in my R4 with the x58, was starting to drive me crazy lol.

Its definitely the case when I slide that switch from 7v to 12v. But still, I can hear my TY143 over my Panaflos when she spools up. It’s a beast for sure, quiet when you want it to be, and loud af when you go deep

It's just the way I read that and I must just have a rather merky mind to say the least!!

I don't believe anyone is or was that innocent!!

I had to post that for the laugh to be honest just to ease the mind of going insane
