  1. you can try the settings I used on the HD4. I used 1.85v for that, this is very surprising for me b/c this memory i have is crap, on X58 when i reviewed it, it couldn't even run XMP(which is T2) lol, on most boards it will screenshot at 2400mhz, but on the HD4 i was surprised it went to 2600, but only good for 1m as of now.

    That is on air, these are the same timings I posted in my UP7 OC guide, but there is one thing not shown here which is in the UEFI, it is at the bottom of the memory timings page, there are two settings: read/write slew rate, they are a mixture of some things which really helps with samsung and PSC. On the HD4 it liked 5 for both read/write(usually keep them the same), but on the UP7 it liked 2-3. I ill try on the UD4H now see what i can get.

  2. damn I am not sure why it doesn't work, I haven't run 3-way SLI before, maybe you try a re-install or older drivers perhaps?

    also you are trying to run 3 PCI-E 3.0 cards at 3-way while in that thread they ran 3 PCI-E 2.0 cards at 3-way, they had more theoretical bandwidth, so it might not be very easy with PCI-E 3.0 GPUs.

  3. hey to be honest I reuse GC-E you can do it when it warms up a bit and it works fine. Use the included tool and wipe it up into a flat plastic container, i use a pill box.

     

    I actually was able to go through customs with many packs of GC-Extreme when going to TW once, no issues.

  4. My result above is with PSC Subaru...

    nice result btw

    only thing i can suggest is better bbse :(

     

    if it cant do 2400 c11 then most likely, there is no hope for them. i would imagine you know what the voltage limits and timings are supposed to be so the only thing left is the sticks themselves.

     

    if you can put up your settings and mabye we can spot something that was overlooked?

     

    @leeghoofd

     

    good to see that you got psc working as well... that was soooo last month though :P

     

    *edit*

     

    on a side note... and waaaay off topic. I found something stuck to my sock that looks a whole lot like weed. should I smoke it?

     

    i say smoke it :)

  5. I hope you guys can give me a little advice. I recently put together this board with an i7 3770K, Patriot Viper Extreme Series (PXD38G2400C11K) set to 11-11-11-30. I followed the OC guide (from this site) as a base; however I did not notice that the LN2 switch was set to Low freq (on my board). This set the multiplier to 16 and trust me it messed me up for about an hr until I realized what the issue was. The odd thing is once I set the LN2 switch to normal and posted into the bios I was able to see the correct CPU speed CPU freq and so on. I then set the XMP profile for the mem and configured the rest of the bios (raid and so on). no overclock at this point. Then I saved the settings rebooted and I got a post code 64 and then nothing, the system would not post. If I set the LN2 switch to low freq it would post. I have swapped memory, CPU's and done everything I could think of to resolve this issue. I can get the system to post with the LN2 switch set to Normal if I hit the reset button a few times, it will post; however that is not right. I have tried all the bios's from Gigabytes site as well. F5F, F5J and F5 give me the most consistent results. The strange thing is once I can post the system is very stable and can run Prime95 all day long. I can also do a very stable 4.8 Ghz overclock as well (once I get the system to post). Strange thing is I don't get the post 64 code at all with LN2 set to low freq. The system works very well in that configuration. Just runs under clocked. Any advice would be appreciated. I have the 2666 Corsair Platinum Mem on the way as well and will try that. I may have a bad motherboard. All the components currently used came out of a very stable 1366 i7 configuration, this build was just an upgrade to new cpu and chipset.

     

    CPU=i7 3770K

    Mem=PXD38G2400C11K

    Cooling=custom built TEC cooling system (CPU stays at 8c)

    Power Supply= 1300 ABS

    VGA= 2X Hydro Copper 680's

    VGA Power Supply= 650watt

     

    Quick OC bios settings.

    Mult 48

    Bclk 100

    Mem 2400

    Vcore 1.35

     

    Just to clarify, this issue happens with no over clock. As soon as I flash the bios, reboot then tell the system to load optimized defaults the system hangs on Post code 64. After a few power resets it will post. then I can get into the bios and configure the rest of the settings. I have better luck (less post code 64 hangs) if I under clock the mem; however like I said with nothing configured in the bios I can still get this issue. I have also used Dom Gt 2000 men from my old 1366 build as a test (only two sticks), same issue.

     

    Sounds like the 51 post code error you guys were getting. Except that is a mem code and code 64 is cpu DXE init

     

    Hey you are the same guy who posted this in the help threads on OCN. Okay i think your issue is the ME firmware or the board itself by default setting your LN2 switch to 16x instead of not. IMO flash to a much earlier BIOS, like F3 or one of the F2 BETAs, hopefully back then the ME firmware revision was different. However try flashing back then with the switch in the position for not 16x, like boot in change your switch and then flash. Then flash to F50 or f5G or whatever, even try F5, but first flash back to F3(or earlier). I think all the F5s might have the same ME firmware and thus it isn't overwritten when the BIOS is flashed. I have seen the boards loop to 64 sometimes with the newer betas that aren't validated.

     

    If that doesn't work then you might want to RMA the board as somehow it was initially programmed with the switch in the wrong position. lol

  6. i also made this guide to OCing the UP7, provided some timings for those of you who have no idea: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?284359-Z77X-UP7-Performance-Review-and-CPU-and-Memory-Overclocking-Guide

     

    Those timings worked great for me with samsung and hynix.

     

    Also about slew setting, basically try above 1 for samsung and psc, some boards will like higher settings, and some BIOSes will also like higher settings so just try them out.
