Wow you beat the pro's!! Now you just need to edit the sub a little

I have isolated the bclk from cpu,qpi, and ram and the max i can achieve is 240, this is with pci at 110 and vtt at 1.6v not quite sure how high i can push this voltage under phase. After looking through submissions for a 920 its looking about right for the board, so maybe i should get my hands on a rampage or giga OC. At 100 pci-e and other settings normal, as in not pushing for frequency its barely stable at 4.6g temps at -56c Going to test the blades now on haswell and if there no good they will be going with the rest!!

@Tasos you asked what revision of board, its rev 1.0 does this make a difference??

Cheers bud already got a lite 32bit XP Pcie is one that i increased the most other than vcore, like i said think i'm rushing in!! The core i have had around 1.58v cant remember the pcie volts but it was very high!! I hear ya on the loading times, worse thing for me on XP as its on a mech, i'm not what you call a patient type!

I'll post some settings up tomoz when i'm on my pc. I most probably am rushing and going straight in with too much voltage. I have just been trying to push max frequency and nothing more for now as the ram what i have isn't great, OCZ blades 2000cas9, they were advertised as 2000cas7 and just grabbed em quick without checking throughly, you win some you lose some but they were cheap. Anyhow there set to there lowest possible speed to rule them out, qpi is very low and uncore is on its lowest setting too. What is the relationship between pci and the rest, why does increasing that allow a better core clock?? If you were to set up X58 what hardware/os would you pick??? Strictly for 2D benching Hard drive?? Gpu?? OS??

Thanks for the tips guys, i'm currently at 5180mhz but its strange as its not consistent possibly due to turbo?? If i turn it off my max multi is 20x. Is the evga eleet software not reliable?? In bios pcie is at 125 and on eleet 104?? Currently testing the platform on win7 and 33% of boots i have an issue where i open cpuz and a pop up asks if i want to send to the recycle bin, with about 12 of these open and only way to get rid is to reset.

Thanks man i'll test shortly

Just picked up a x58 classy board and a 920 to gain some more points and general thrashing now i have never had the pleasure of tweaking this platform yet and its causing a few headaches, mainly a lock up issue at always 225bclk. No matter what voltages, auto or giving it some it locks up at 225, i have dropped the multi and it locks up at 225. It will pass any bench at 224 which leads me to think its hard drive related. Theres no bsod it just freezes in windows. Qpi is low and ram speed is also set low to rule these out. I have tried the main port which i believe is connected to the south bridge and also tried the jmb red port near the pcie lane and both do the same. The hard drive i am using is a 2.5" lappy drive, got 3.5"mech and loads of ssd's should i be using one of the others instead?? There must be something i'm missing?? Oh yeah installed win7 with drive in ide mode, should i re-install with ahci? HELP!!!

I'll try and get something sorted regards skype, no camera here, got face time?? Pm me where your based in uk, then i can see if its viable, i dont do public transport!! So would be driving. Card was sold faulty mate, tried everything with it, reflow, bios flashing to name a few Regards SS it could of overheated due to where i have moved it (in a corner) has been run before for 8 hours on a 5960X at 1.55v, everytime i glanced at it my face started to melt! Its always mega hot!

I couldn't wait to get suitable sized bolts to connect the SS so i drilled the holes bigger on the card, still not sure what killed it but possibly static. Where are you based?? Do mansfield cryogenics deliver to where you are?? Viz uses 'em and he's way down. http://mansfieldcryogenics.com

I've already slaughtered a very good 680lightning which is why i have been buying older/cheaper cards to test with. And i appreceiate your kind offer, will have to take you up on that you still in the states??

Based near Lincoln, have never used skype mate but never say never, got a lot to learn yet and want to keep pushing. just grabbed an X58 platform to thrash, just building up my hardware before making the jump, thought about DICE but lewis reckons i'm not gonna gain much as far as cpu(SS) is concerned. Just need to get volt modding then i'm set to have a bash, just always hard work being a privateer funding everything. Dagmar has been very helpful in that respect regards hardware but i generally refuse as i dont like being responsible for other peoples stuff but i may borrow his dewar and of course knowledge

Ha ha no seriously thanks, got a new board and chip coming in next couple of days and i would of been truly gutted if it were fubar, so fingers crossed its all good and i can rag this new hardware still building upto LN2 but work needs to pick up a bit before i start throwing the $$$$ at that.

What, i can't hear you!!

Found it!! You were correct! Fuse ok but 1 of the contacts was a bit slack so i bent it in and not sure if that was the problem but its working, testing now and currently at -57c i'll see how long it lasts. Thanks for your help!

Paid.

Are these the fuses?

Brendan, is there a fuse for the compressor?? If so can you remember where?? Had one guy at MLG say to wire up compressor direct to mains to test?

100euro? Current exchange rate to GBP = £72.66 if this is correct PM me your payment details. PAYPAL?

Still waiting for a delivery price, i sent you my post/zip code???

The sticker does not say much Very similar to this one http://airmend-hvac.en.made-in-china.com/product/eSyniZMlLPkL/China-T3-Rotary-Compressor-R22-220-240V-50Hz-1HP-3HP-LG-Compressor-QP407PAA-.html

Have seen a new 1hp rotary R22, does that sound about right?? Can i post links here??

No mate it was running whilst i was switching a gpu out, like the compressor part stopped and the fan was still going. It was quiet for a change!! I would of thought its pretty old now?? So something was bound to let go If i connect mm on ohm setting to capacitor it drops to 0 and then starts to rise and keeps going??

Just been running my single stage and the compressor has just stopped i have just opened up the electrical box and theres a large capacitor, could that of failed?? How do i test?? Not sure if my mm has a capacitance reading. The fans still spins but nothing else, it just cut out, no pop or anything.

The time has come where i need more juice for my cards, so this means some hard mods can anyone recommend a good solder station, upto £100?? I am based in the UK so please bare this in mind. And what about all the bits?? VR's etc can you buy a mixed bag of stuff?? Ideally dont want to be placing orders left right and Center. Is a glue gun essential?? Thank you for your time.
