Those are damn decent temps for that voltage and ghz level! Solid performance as well! Personally would not keep it at that voltage for anything longer than what is needed to benchmark it. Just too risky. But I'm also very cautious.The system is a custom loop with 2 fans on the radiator, I need to connect 2 more ...
Temperatures will be even lower when I connect everything, of course it will not be at this voltage, 4.8ghz ds adjusts fine with some 1.43v ...Those are damn decent temps for that voltage and ghz level!

That's interesting.....usually only non-ecc/regular or ecc/unbuffered working on those X58/branded motherboards....thx for the info!In case someone is interested - Asus P6X58D Premium works with these 2rx8 4gb Ecc registered sticks. It didn't work with 2rx4 though. I'm using Xeon X5670 and latest bios.
There is a thread on overclockers where someone is using 48gb ecc reg on Asus P6T and he said the same thing that only 2rx8 are working and 2rx4 not. Probably 1rx8 should work too but haven't got any to test.That's interesting.....usually only non-ecc/regular or ecc/unbuffered working on those branded motherboards....thx for the info!

Yeah I remember reading something about that ages ago....good find @Rumcajs997 and thx for your confirmation,personally I don't own atm X58 platform but there are many members in here that might be interesting in this topic so PLS. feel free to share any news about this subject!There is a thread on overclockers where someone is using 48gb ecc reg on Asus P6T and he said the same thing that only 2rx8 are working and 2rx4 not.

Thats the reason why I share it so others can find it as when I was looking for this info few days ago, 98% of answers where saying that it works only with unbuffered memory. I bought those registered sticks 3x cheaper than regular ones.Yeah I remember reading something about that ages ago....good find @Rumcajs997 and thx for your confirmation,personally I don't own atm X58 platform but there are many members in here that might be interesting in this topic so PLS. feel free to share any news about this subject!

Nice.....and BTW I also owned Asus P6X58D Premium before and that motherboard is just Perfect......also don't be shy&feel free to post in here your benchmarking results or your OC achievements....Thats the reason why I share it so others can find it as when I was looking for this info few days ago, 98% of answers where saying that it works only with unbuffered memory.

Just bought it so need to get my head round it as its my first X58 boardNice.....and BTW I also owned Asus P6X58D Premium before and that motherboard is just Perfect......also don't be shy&feel free to post in here your benchmarking results or your OC achievements....

Hmm...maybe you can try to tweak memory timings&speed in bios especially If you OC your CPU see if that helps....anyway Passmark test have memory benchmark also so you can see the result and compare it dual Vs triple should be significant difference if that ram working only in dual channel.......Just bought it so need to get my head round it as its my first X58 boardI've bought Asus Rampage II Extreme too. Unfortunately I seem to have first problem with those rams. I've installed 3 sticks in blue slots and MemTest went fine, no errors and it sees 12gb but CPU-Z under Hirens Boot shows that they work in Dual Channel (but it sees all 3 sticks correctly)... not sure if its a programme error or what.

HehI'm stupid. I was looking at SPD tab and it was showing Rank - Dual but under Memory channel it shows Channel - Triple. When I installed all 6 sticks I had to reseat them as only 4 where detected but after reinstalling them its 24gb triple channel now.
BTW. When I turn on this motherboard it takes like good 15s before anything shows up on the screen. Do you remember if you had the same?
Cheers, ill try that. I've got Asus P8P67 Deluxe as well and it seems to have quite similar VRM, like 16 phases or something. But its over the top for P67 as 4 core doesn't really need that much. But this X5670 probably does after OC.Hehhappens to anyone.........Yeah If I recall correctly you have Asus Express Gate in bios options and enter the os timer or something like that....try to enable/disable and to put that timer on less seconds this will speed up things....I believe that I keep Asus Express gate enabled and soon as that shows up I just skipped and it was way faster.....but you can try all different options....
P.S.VRM on that motherboard is just INSANE......

I got the asus p6x58d-e here that I might try it some day soon as long I can get it at a reasonable price as seen some going for €25 just for one ramGood news, Asus Rampage II Extreme booted just fine with these 2rx8 sticks too. I was not testing it but if it boots to bios, I'm sure that it will work fine. So we know that Asus P6T, Asus P6X58D Premium and Asus Rampage II Extreme work with 2rx8 ECC Registered sticks.
I wonder if other brands would work too. If we have got someone here that owns X58 Gigabyte or other brand board and could spend 3$ for humanity buying 2rx8 ecc ram to test it, that would be great![]()
Nah, that's way too expensive. Ecc registered should be like 3x cheaper than regular ddr3. But p6x58d-e is pretty much the same as my premium, so we know that it will work.I got the asus p6x58d-e here that I might try it some day soon as long I can get it at a reasonable price as seen some going for €25 just for one ram

The thing is that there's 2rx8 ECC Registered and Unbuffered versions of the ram I don't know which one to get as there's too manywe know that it will work.
Unbuffered = expensive as its pretty much a normal ddr3 and should work on any board.Good to know

brands and timings scattered everywhere

That interesting to knowUnbuffered = expensive as its pretty much a normal ddr3 and should work on any board.
Registered = cheap as its mostly for servers but as we know, some work on consumer boards too.
Look at the photo I shared above, its got 10600R and R means registered.
All Chinese motherboards named X79 are built on B67, Q67 etc chipsets and they support quad channel, ecc registered and lga2011 Xeon processors so everything is possible.What I want to know is how all of this is working. X58 isn't "supposed" to support Registered DIMMs, so what gives?
That's a different platform. X58 is not supposed to work with Registered DIMMs. It's not in the spec. But then again, the IMC is on chip so maybe there is a microcode instance being triggered in the BIOS when 8GB DIMMs are installed... I kinda want to try it on one of my T3500s but I don't have any spare 8GB RegDIMMs..All Chinese motherboards named X79 are built on B67, Q67 etc chipsets and they support quad channel, ecc registered and lga2011 Xeon processors so everything is possible.
