10-11-11 not a strong kit of DDR3.

Do an AIDA64 Memory & Cache test if you can, interesting to see how much of a loss is that

I have a silly question.

When changing timing from 9-9-9-24 to 8-8-8-24 do i have to change it one by one and reboot the machine to see if it boots or do I have to change it all together and reboot the machine?

You silly...

Everything at once. Only exceptions are on ultra ln cooled boots where you barely initialize the system for a record.

You usually will get bsod at windows load if timing is too tight. Usually it will boot.

Well, i was trying to do as you said but there is some weird issue, when i change the first 9 to 8 the machine boots without problems but when i change the second 9 to 8 the machine when loading it shows 16GB ram of 24

Been honest i did stop changing timing and reset the ram to 9-9-9-24 because i gOt scared

Well it just means you are past your stability already by far... either more voltage either leave it on 9-9-9-24.

 

[FilipM]

Mind you, tighter timings might (usually will) require higher QPI voltage and other things to go with it.

I know that, but the most common symptom when changing timings and it fails, are: System won't post or BSOD, the system showing 16gb ram of 24gb just because the timing settings failed it's something new for me, i never heard something like that before.

 

[CAPSLOCKSTUCK]

Oh well....

seems the MSI Pro-E is a non runner. Ive tried everything i know but alas, to no avail. I'm not going to chuck it out quite yet because i still havent tried it with a conventional 2 x 4 pin supply but i have tried my ghetto solution which i checked with my psu tester before i tried it with the board so I am fearing the worst.

Not all the lights lit.
No fans spinning.
No POST

and it stinks.

I got the pump. Very pleased for the price. Inner soldering good. PWM pin is present, will test it later if it works. Nice set of screws. No rad still - noise tests will come in later. Well 30€ so far looks good.

Found a Seller on Ebay with (10 at moment )

5 years ago you could get one for 1/2 that

Shows the Value people still put into/ Regard X58 systems and its "in my opinion still good to find New Boards"

 

[Recon-UK]

I would say those of us with Westmere / Nehalem chips north of 4.0ghz will match Haswell minimum.

X99 board prices seem to be going down on eBay at least. I am thinking of getting few boards for the future as it seems I will be sticking with Xeon v3 and v4 for at least some more years.

I am also planning to ditch i7-6700 (non-k) I have which is currently serving as a media PC / backup renderer and replace it with xeon (probably ES, 10 core-ish). Current cinebench score for my i7-6700 is 800. I am not expecting 1700 like my 2683 v3 does but hoping to have something that exceeds 1000 points.
Cinebench has been pretty good at measuring multicore performance from what I've been. I've compared the scores with Blender rendering speeds on both i7-6700 and 2683v3 and it's pretty much spot on, so I know cinebench score is reliable.

Something like this, Xeon E5-2650 V3 ES, should be able to get 1000.

Back in after a day of overclocking and gaming, the 21x multi still hasn't revealed itself, but we're on the WS BIOS now and clocked a little higher. I would have gone further, but the 212 Evo just can't keep up.

 

[FilipM]

I had the 212+ in a push-pull, great value for money, but can't keep up with these extreme OC's that we're doing

You must have a great chip for it to run nearly 4.5GHz at 1.33V. Did you have to tweak any voltages besides VCore?

 

[CAPSLOCKSTUCK]

No,

I had three X5650 and they all clocked exactly the same.

 

[FilipM]

Gives me some hope then

 

[Durvelle27]

Loving this system

added some more RAM and cranked the RES

 

[Recon-UK]

No,

Has a lot to do with the motherboard too

 

[CAPSLOCKSTUCK]

I got the same results with MSI Pro- E as with ASUS Rog. I had both boards at the time.

Same goes for

E5620
E5640
same o.c on both boards
