I'm know I'm late to the party but I think based on what I just read it seems like there is M-die with 2 GB ICs (old) and now M-die in a 3 GB variant is the new M-die... why do we always need to be Sherlock Holmes with memory Jesus Christ... Marco

Is this guy correct? https://www.overclock.net/threads/so-as-of-today-hynix-m-die-24-gb-is-the-best-overclocker.1812624/ I don't know which is why I ask. Marco

that was it, L double E! Thanks!

Not sure but usually I get a size error in that case but let me try to see if reducing the photo of the rig will help. Thanks for suggestion.

Just tried again in case it had fixed itself and same error.

Hello my hwbot brothers (and sisters?), I'm getting the following when trying to submit results for a TimeSpy Extreme run: Any ideas?

Nice man - that card is so overclocking unfriendly all I can say is that you should get first just for trying ;-)

Please delete the following entry - it's not using ECC so it no longer generates points but my latest entry doesn't score as high so it's not generating points either since HWBot doesn't think it's my best score. The only thing I can think of that will fix that is by removing it: https://hwbot.org/submission/5105341_marco.is.not.80_unigine_superposition___8k_optimized_geforce_rtx_4090_15665_points/ Thanks!

Ah, I see what you mean now. Got it. One BIOS won't allow downgrades. The other BIOS gets corrupted and now you are screwed. Got it. That sucks it happened to you. Crazy bad luck ?

Thanks! :-)

I'm still confused. One BIOS can't be flashed back. I get that. The other BIOS would have the NON-K OC BIOS installed. You can't just flip the switch to choose the BIOS that works and go from there? Sorry - I think I'm missing something here - educate me.

Woot! 8200 and daily driver stable - thanks SF!

Thanks, SF - I will give those settings a try and post back - thanks for replying!

strong!!!

strong!!!!

Thank you very much - I get it and realize I've been pushing for global points past my maximum 20! Doh! I didn't realize there was a limit so I've always been going to the benchmark page and just doing the ones which have global points... time to start tackling some of the other stuff ? Thanks for enlightening me!

The global points. What was so different that one had a bunch of global points and the other had 0?

I'm not complaining at all - just want to be clear - because I realized I don't actually understand how points work when I thought I did. When I go here I have an entry that places me third for 8x Ryzen 7 3800X GPUPI for CPU - 1B ranking. That gets me this: When I click on the the link for the entry that has 5th spot for 8x Ryzen 7 3800X GPUPI for CPU - 1B ranking I see this: How does that work? Help me to understand? Thanks in advance! Marco

Guys, isn't this why we have dual bioses? Flash the latest one to one bios and keep the old bios on the 2nd one. What's the problem?

This is amazing results for just chilled water. You were using EVC to get additional volts?

Hi SF, My replacement Z790 Apex came in last week - had to wait an entire 1.5 months from payment to delivery but I finally got around to installing it into my daily driver a few days ago and wow - this board is memory overclock easy mode! That being said, I tried to replicate your settings above and had no problem posting and getting into OS but stability tests failed. I'm certain it is related to third and maybe secondary timings and was wondering if you had a screenshot you could share of your memtweak app? As always, thanks for your contributions to the community!

Please delete the following score - I accidentally filed it under Geekbench 5 when it should have been Geekbench 3. Apologies. https://hwbot.org/submission/5138993_ Marco

Sorry bscool - I forgot to update this for you because my Z790 was dead on arrival from Newegg. I believe they sold me a used board because it had no manual in it and was missing the protective wrapping :-( I've RMA'd it but you know how that goes - no stock right now so have to wait ?

I have Z690 with 13900k and just got my Z790 yesterday. You want the SP score that is listed for both the Efficiency cores and the performance cores in the AI menu, right?

Hi S.F., Could you post your voltage settings for this if you have a second? Would really appreciate it!
