What voltage were you booting at? I saw in XS similar thing, that booting at 1.95V killed the chip.

Thanks Honda and Stunned_guy

Bulldozer is only good for making fun out of it

Yeah, both should be the same - either 411 or 416.

Very nice competition. Congrats to the winners. Amazing results in all stages, good job everyone!

Yeah, me too . Congrats! Much prettier than mine.

These are the best BH-5's I've ever had, but were tortured a lot in the past

Hehe, nice one

Yes, these are rare. Good job Chris, you're doomed

Are you kidding me? Go for 300.

No, I don't have a backup yet, but will try to go higher, 300 would look good Kinda sorry that I can't play your little competition here, fighting for the next 0.5MHz. And all my 256MB modules don't even boot.

Only 260MHz? Is that the max with 3.2V? I don't get how you will reach 300+ if that's the max with the given voltage, as mine are memtest stable in dual channel with same voltage at ~268MHz 2-2-2-5 1T And I'm not able to pass 300MHz on air. Looking forward to prove me wrong

I doubt so. There are very good chances that it's still alive. 3V is not that much for D9. Good job

10MHz to go

Nah, beer actually helps. Drink more beer and results will go up 1112.4MHz = not enough beers

Ok, the same mem ratio/uncore freq quirk. I'm not an intel guy, but it seems incorrect. I'm assuming this from the fact that uncore should be at least 1.5x times memclk, so minimum uncore on this screen should be 1343*2*1.5 = 4029MHz. One of these is incorrectly detected - mem divider or uncore frequency, most likely the first one, 'cause you're running stock cooler. Correct me if I'm wrong. It looks more like 2:12 divider to me. 3189/1.5/2 = 1063 or exactly 1:6 (2:12 divider) with the bclk. What's the vdimm you're using?

Can you just disable uploading of DDR3 results in stage 2 and add it to the limitation rules?

Yes, completely agree . Well, someone could participate with DDR2@CL6, so they should be allowed. CL2 - DDR CL4 - DDR2 CL6 - DDR2 & DDR3 CL8, CL10 - DDR3 PS: Moving results here, 'cause I have a feeling Massman will delete DDR3 submissions soon

Guys from HWBOT staff, could you take a look at my score and the comments, please. Definitely it's not CL4, but it's the same for other boards, we can't tell all of them. You should take a decision about this stage. There might be problems with detection in other stages as well.

Ok, here's the real deal. It seems that the board sets it to CL8 or CL7 at best. Can't boot at 5-8-8-24 on same settings. Results speak for themselves. There are other possible variants, but I lost enough time to test these 5. Don't mind Everest scores, we all know they are not consistent between runs, so it's there only to display detected timings.

This stage could be complete fiasco, because you can't test virtually every board with every possible bios version.

Yes, they do. I was also curious and ran some tests. Unfortunately PI32M at CL4 screenshot got corrupted, so I need to rerun it. Expect some more results later. First of all, here's my 24/7 config: 1090T@4270 1.45V, NB@3232 2x2GB GTX2 @ 1845 6-6-6-18-11 1T 1.69V What I did for the tests: - Left only 2 active cores - adjust timings, because I don't want to torture my ram and CPU with voltage..for nothing The test order was the same for both cases (CL4 and CL6) - open and run everest, open cpu tweaker, open 3xcpuz, open superpi, set affinity to 2nd core and run 1M, no wazza or other tweaks involved, no other settings touched, except CL. PS: Removed screens with 1M, they are irrelevant, see next post for 32M.

Thеse are the words we were waiting for...now go to the stores PS: Didn't realize it's only for MSI board owners. Good luck!

G620 is Pentium, G540 is Celeron. The second one should be allowed?

I guess it's enough for the clocks. How much is enough? - Depends

Well, DDR3 will handle CL4, CL6, CL8 and CL10 stages, DDR2 - CL2 stage. DDR is out of the game, I suppose.
