    Testing Rampage IV Extreme

    in Sandy Bridge-E / Ivy Bridge (X79) OC

    Posted

    Yeah i had the same feeling, that it can run at -70 doesn't equal to It likes that temp so next time I will try to play at higher temps, but with -20c on the pot I think is a bit to high. It can be + temps under high loads no ? Had a 5.6ghz 2500k chip ( dead by now .. ) which was able to run down to -80-100 but liked -50 the most and gave me + 200mhz lol. hopefully sb-e will react the same. I just want to play safe and not burn the mobo. .

    I thought so. :( I will try to squeeze out at least 20-30mhz more but not too many options. Vcore don't help. Maybe a good combination of vrm settings, and high pll voltage will result in 5330-5350mhz stable. The cpu's are not bad temp wise cause both of them can bench at -70 or lower and boot with streched imc at - 63c. To tell the truth the lack of raw cpu mhz is not the main and only problem, the worst part is that i got results similar to 5-5,1ghz cpu-s at 5.3 ish..

    is it possible to have a clock wall at 5330mhz on this board? I've tested to different chips on ln2 and both of them maxed out at the exact same frequency of 5337mhz 6c/12t which leads me to the idea maybe I mess something up in the bios settings. The 1st chip is a 3960X engineering sample which has the same FPO as Massman tested, and his cpu maxed out at the same clocks. The second one is a retail boxed 3930K C2 chip. So is it possible to "find " another 70 stable mhz to minimally statisfie my needs or just live with it to have 2 sb-e cpu-s with the exact same max frequencies? In offtopic the C2 chip is a piece of ....... stability wise, the ES was a lot more relaxed, and kept the setting throughout 4-5 hours straight, while the C2 b1tch had to be finetuned at every damn boot process, and froze a lot, even at settings which were stable for 2 hours ..............

    this board looks a badass efficiency wise but still 100mhz short of R4E on ln2

    we tested 04ahgy"s cpu yesterday on the ud7 first. 1.63v 5250-80mhz max not validated. 5300 benchable, 5340mhz max valid on the rampage with only 1.53v. 1.52v 5300 3dv - 3d11 cpu test stable. but from the eff side of things, the ud7 looks real good, maybe im just too rookie to the rampage ..

    ;159756']Processor boots fine in another motherboard.

     

    Starts on asus x79 pro.

     

    Thank you for answering

     

    Video problem:

     

    its weird. have you put ram sticks only for one side of the cpu ?

    try with 1-1 module in both sides. maybe an imc related problem. my friend tested the xpower 2 not a long ago and had serious ram compatibility and booting issues because of not puting the rams in the right slots. that was with a 3960x c1 es
