Generally, IIRC, disabling the C1 and C3 states will solve that problem.
Thats the most frustrating thing, in the bios that's all turned off yet the CPU doesn't stay at the max speed I'm setting it too. Maybe I need to adjust the multi to actually fix it at that speed??
 
In some cases yes and no best is to save the overclock settings and reset to stock settings and see if the problem continues while using Windows 7. So that way you can enable or disable each power saving setting to see which one triggers the lockup when either sleeping or waking the computer
 
Just disable sleep/hibernate. It almost never worked right anyway.
FWIW, I run W7 on mine.
 
It funny that after doing abit of searching about the sleep issue dated back as far as 2010 it looks like it never got fixed on evga sr-2 with windows 7.
 
I remember reading about some weird things going on with evga boards. I was never able to get speed step to work right unless it was @ stock clocks on an Asus and Giga. I'm not sure if it was because it was an ES or what. I was able to use certain odd and even multis, but it had to be within a certain bclk range. My CPU could do 200bclk np folding for months on end but it was happier in the 159-189 range depending on the multi. 200x20 was cock stiff too but 200x21 was a no go for stability.. but you could spend half a day benching it at 4800mhz with 1.6v it would be ok with it. Its a weirdo CPU. BUT! Because my board has 2 bioses, #2 has the newest, and number one had an earlier one maybe 4 or 5 back.. and going back to that old one resolved my memory problems for the most part. I had 2x4 and 4x2GB in there for 16GB for a month or so and it was like running a set of 3x2, it was amazing. I fought with that thing for probably 8 years to get it to do that for just 12GB. Sometimes the 12GB would run, but most of the time it was just frustration :laugh:
 
Okay, so getting the 1070 in got my curiosity up and I stuck bclk to 166. Makes the whole thing start singing along and whatnot.

Ram is at 1328mhz, since 166x4 is what the ram runs at. No issues at the moment besides PCI errors showing in hwinfo but I don't think that's an issue.

Timespy score with the 1070.. yay? Not sure what else to report.

Weird! With most desktop boards I've seen turning off the C-states defaults to maximum performance. Laptops are the only systems I've seen that default to the lowest performance state, but even them some give the user a choice..

So all your ram is now showing up now?

That's actually great single and multi core results in Cpu-z....Give us some more results what about Time Spy Physics score,Cinebench,Passmark....

Ram is showing up, reboots came back.

Score at the bottom is timespy.
 
You've got a higher clock but just about the same single and lower multi. Something running in the background?
Don't think so. Just my normal daily.

Anybody got a Huananzhi x99-TF with a e5 2678 or know what the fastest ram it can support is?

It's either DDR4 2133 or 2400. It doesn't officially support anything higher. That motherboard BIOS might allow memory overclocking to get faster ram to run, but that is no guarantee.

Here visit Miyconst website and his YOUTUBE channel you will find everything you need to know about X99-Chinese motherboards also you can see how to do turbo-unlock on those motherboards....GL
 
The more you push the overclock on that setup the numbers get smaller. What your power consumption on cinebench r20 that what I be wondering

Not sure where you're getting that since it clearly shows higher clocks = better score. Look closely since the newest run is 4.15ghz,
