    The official MSI MOA 2011 Americas Online pre-selection thread.

    That pin is not out of place, nor was it my doing, its a clean crack new out of box. I have higher res shots, took them right after i removed socket cover.

    Whatever the case doesn't matter, I worked with board the way it was.

     

    Don't know if I get it right, but for what I understood you fixed it before benching, right?

    I was almost thinking about removing it in here too xD lol

     

    But really strange to see things like that coming that way from the factory... Very well deserved score even more after some scary stuff like the pin "mod"

    All official info coming soon.

     

    You guys are really impatient :P

     

    Yes we are =)

     

     

     

     

    damn I got some pins out of place too.. now I'm not completely sure if only my 655k died, or if both cpu and mobo died or just the mobo =P

     

    This was one of the competition with the highest tax of killed hardware since I started following... =P I know a lot of ppl who lost some stuff... =( Hope to get some of them back from more than one lucky draw (fuck yeah) =)

    but probably I won't get anything.. I'm not a lucky guy

    I just realized that no FM validation required for stage 1... =P

     

    Really strange to have different submission rules for the same benchmark but its MSI who give the rules. Hope one day we will have an huge competition without any misunderstanding (like missing screenshots, bugged submissions and non required stuff implicit in main post and explicit on small post in the middle of a huge thread) =)

     

    Anyway, had great fun benching a lot on these weeks.. Much better to just had saved the unnecessary validation this time instead of like LATIN MOA this year losing great scores opening coretemp in a extreme competition xD Think these things will get better and better through the time.

     

    Great time on the online qualify, expecting a great time on the AM qualify finals =)

    MSI H55M-ED55 Clarkdale IGP Overclocking (VOLTMOD and VIDEO inside)

    As expected, the Vaxg has an extremely strict OVP. Max I can run is 1.53V with the highest voltage set in the bios (1.448V). So, we'll need the OVP as well.

     

    The easiest way would, however, be a bios that allows us to set ALL VID settings for the igp ...

     

    Massman, please see if it's possible for msi the bios with the IGP voltage as the one you've got and also unlocked memory ratio (latest beta I found in msi's German forum (I guess) has that feature already) for H55M-E33.

    Fought hard but done the vcore at the different controler (pin 6 is FB and pin 10 IMAX on E33), but this strict ovp on igp is really tough... +0,016v after a hard soldering time is really sad...

    I'll try the best without it, but again: kinda hard to compete with 1.53v against up to 2v...

    If there's any other way to break this protection please let us know.

     

    Thanks for everything! I Already learned a lot in this competition :)

    Gnidaol, do the homework too by your own, in my case i have to find OCP + Vcore mod + CBB mod on my P55-GD65 for join by my self, Just search on internet the IC numbers near to CPU PWM, and then search for the FB Pin, measure the resistance between this and GND and then add a VRM acording to the formula or add a vrm 10x Bigger than default

     

    Thanks! I already did that too...

    Just failed at ocp.. damn small pins to solder, even the vcore, I scratched the board to solder somewhere else than that F pin.. damn small pin :( but its really hard to solder without any spot... anyway... spend my day completely on that.. And really hard to follow the line, it goes back front back without any resistor :( anyway it worked...

    This week I'll test it (without ocp anyway) hoping to get good results otherwise I'll have to do it all over again in a different way...

     

    But a good bios for every body should be the rule.. for example, I think that's kinda unfair to use an afterburner with max vcore at +200mv at the same competition that people uses extreme versions unavailable for download... Anyway I know that's part of the game... At least I think that the hardest score to come is the one that's gonna be the best rewarded... So I keep having fun overclocking and benching, things that I love to do.

     

    well drunk talk. almost 5am. time to go to bed xD

    please ask for the H55M-E33!!! (the only H55 from MSI available in Brazil)

    Vcore, IGP, and unlocked memory ratio (the most recent BIOS has ratio 5 as maximum).

     

    If not possible a bios, at least the vcore and ocp mods (OVP if it exists) (at least original values and the resistors), the igp and vtt has the same controllers that you've already posted so it's not completely necessary.

     

    Thanks Massman!!
