Not home from work yet... gotta try to bend the corner back.
Really sorry to hear that. Nice score and efficiency.

Cold slow resistor on Strix v2
thanks so much for all your help.

send it back and buy my Matrix cards
I have a 81% asic 980 ti kpe that I might try and sell also, was going to maybe hit you up about a trade, but I'm having so much fun playing games with it right now, best gaming experience I ever had.

Which revision of the card you have?
hey I finally got my card, I got the rev 2 because it has samsung memory. Do you know if an ln2 bios is floating around, or maybe matrix one will work.
Do you know if we still remove the same 2 resistors with the sammy version?
Sorry for all the questions, not much info around about rev 2 strix.
-
I just grabbed a strix with sammy mem. Do you guys think the matrix samsung ln2 bios would work ok, has anyone tried. I know I can just short the shunts but obviously an ln2 bios is easier.
There was only one posted for strix and I'm assuming it was when the card had hynix mem.

Anyone have luck running four sticks on this board yet? Just threw in two more sticks of B-Die (four total)... trying to figure out what I need to change to get them to do the 3866 12-12-12 or so that I was doing with two sticks.
for some other boards changing twrwr_dd & twrwr_dr to like 8 and above helps me a lot with 4 sticks.

Exactly.
In the future, for anyone who might be interested, this is the "universal" guide that can be used:
http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=377158
To add upcoming cards, the Device ID can be found on GPUZ. So instead of 17C8 for 980 ti, just grab ID from GPUZ and add it on the nv4_dispi as mentioned above by Elmor.
in that guide it has 2 steps, I see how to add the device ID from the example inf above, but there is a second part for adding support to the OS. Is that step necessary. Can I use this exact line that I found in the example inf and add to the OS section of the inf I am modding?
%NVIDIA_DEV.17C8% = Section008, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_17C8

I can not load google drive to download Java 9
I had trouble with links also but took the file ID and added to a different url and it worked. it says empty folder after clicking on link but I used google chrome and have google drive so there was an add to google drive button in upper right and it put it right into my drive and downloaded fine after. These should work

I wonder if the die is smashing with glue off... as @Schmuckley showed, they're extremely easy to shatter.
I also think it's the actual process of removing the glue. With the pcb being so thin it twists ever so slightly.
after removing glue had 00 on m8e and didnt want to believe it and pushed the start button 3 more times and then mobo would never turn on again..
But it does also smash the die. My first chip had really bad marks on the die just from the pressure of ihs on die and not from sliding or anything. One piece of electrical tape on each side was enough to stop that, but it was crazy the marks left in the tape from the ihs, the hold down really squeezes the two together without that glue.

Have an issue, hopefully someone has an idea what the **** is going on, cause I can't figure it out. So I recently delidded 2 chips using delid tool. Scraped glue off pcb and ihs with credit card, as I've done every chip in past. Re-timmed 6320 and ran without any issues. 2nd time I tried running 6320, mobo wouldn't boot. Fast forward to 2 weeks later, today. 2 different mobos. Both 6700k and 6320 will not post. Both look pristine without bend, scratch, or other defect. Multiple mountings and still no post. I've seen codes 14 and 00 on Gene and 04 on OCF. Multiple sticks and configurations of ram, cosm cleared dozen times, no post. Why would this be happening? Never had any issues like this before with delidded cpu. I even checked 1st skylake i bent and it boots no problem. So why would 2 chips using safe method, appear dead?? I'm at a loss.
I dont know if this relates to your situation but you mentioned scraping the glue off. I did a perfect delid on my 6700k and it worked great. But I wanted to apply new glue so I scraped off old glue. After scraping off glue cpu wouldnt boot anymore, i tried a few more times to boot and it actually killed my m8e.
There wasnt a single scratch or imperfection on the cpu but I must have twisted it a tiny bit when scraping glue, the pcb is so thin.
Just be careful not to kill mobo's if the cpu's are dead. That really sucks, sorry you have to go thru it

Which revision of the card you have?
cool thanks guys, I was actually proud of myself and found the cached view. it looks like the site is back up, thanks elmor.
XA, I was going to go to microcenter and pick the card up tonight. I'm hoping it's the new rev with sammy mem and someone mentioned updated controller. I had so much fun with my 980 strix I want to try it again.

Shoot me a PM with price shipped to UK for board only and board & gpu.
What does mem clock to? (not a deal breaker)
it's done 8200mhz firestrike easily at 1.75v, but lately I have been addicted to gaming so I have just tried to set it at 8000mhz to make sure I dont crash in the middle of a long fallout session. But it's setup right now with a uni block on the m8e so I can send some screenshots of what it does gaming and what it does benching max.
I can get you some quotes, no big deal on gpu, just figured I would mention it, I just havent had enough money to really bench it. It's so frustrating, but the mobo is brand new with oc panel box and accessories, I'm so dumb and forgot you were in uk, the box is huge. I can still get some quotes though.

From my test the spacer doesn't help the cracking stuff. Have you guys found something different?
I have been using strips of electrical tape for months now and it never seems to be consistent. At one point no crack, same exact method next time and crack. But I have tried 4 strips on each side, I have also tried 2 pieces high on each side. I have also tried glueing the ihs back everytime and re-delidding.
Then I will bench and think I fixed it and do the same thing again and it cracks. It's really strange and hard for me to figure out. I have also been using a lot of paste but not as much as splave showed. Will try that this weekend with new chip.
I also tried with i3. delidded and glued back together with a little higher glue and a ton of paste and I had terrible cracks.
Some of my best results have been cracking it on purpose and heating up with xtu and then benching more.
its definitely the most frustrating thing I have come across since starting xoc.

[WTB] 5960X
in Sold
Wanted:Looking for a 5960X that can do 5.7GHz or higher for 3D benching FM Vantage, 3DMark '11, FS + FSE at Gen 3 PCI-E.
Prefer chips that can also push cache over 4750 or so.
Will be using RVE and XPower motherboards if that helps.
My heatware:
http://www.heatware.com/u/61643
Payment via PayPal is preferred.
I have one I have been thinking of selling, only benched about twice. I got it up to 5.6ghz cinebench, I'm pretty sure it will do 5.7ghz 3d but I have been having trouble with my kpe so I didn't get any subs in.
http://hwbot.org/submission/3116525
The cache is insane, would have done 5.1ghz cache with this low clock sub but I had to keep the cpu core under 4ghz.
-
As per title. Must be complete with no ln2 prep. (Going into a daily).
Px with rve/champ/ocf/xpower possible.
I have a brand new m8e, about 2 weeks old. I killed one and bought another but it's too expensive so I might just stick with the ocf. It's on water cooling right now just gaming. The OC Panel has never even been turned on. I was just about to prep for cold but I ordered an ocf and will be here saturday. I can send some pics, it's the computer I'm using now. it even still has whatever plastic comes on the heat sinks.
I will also probably sell my 81% asic 980 ti kpe. Would definitely give a deal for both, but I did prep the 980 ti for cold but it's perfectly clean now. I'm using it for fallout 4 and nba2k16 as we speak. It's pretty insane, does 1575mhz gaming easily.
I wish I wouldnt have ordered ocf already, we could have worked out a trade.

hey does anyone have the mods for the 980 ti strix. kingpin cooling has been down for awhile now. Was thinking of trying one out. Thanks.

Sweet! Getting a little interest! Would be great if we could start getting a count together (even if it's only 6-10 ppl) so we can start looking in to places and making needed arrangements. I know the dates are still pretty far out there but hoping we can get a bunch more people.
Let's see if we can get the poll fixed sometime this week. We're going to have to set some sort of deadline so we can start researching and getting things booked.
Totally psyched for whatever and whoever we manage to get together!!!
saw this late but I'm definitely in, sounds exciting. Finally close to me. Shouldnt be much drive from ny. I also know someone here from ny who could be interested, I will let him know about thread.
Sept 24th would be cool, it's my birthday, will plan some time off from work.

wow that's sick, awesome score.
-
and it does start with R, come on guys D and R are like 14 letters apart in the alphabet, that's a huge difference.
-
Applied settings and all that, it worked to boost the card and lock it in P0 mode.
Once I open GPUPI, it throttles back down anyways.
Once I close it, it instantly boosts back to P0 mode...
sorry, was hoping it would work, either way that program is awesome, especially for older benches and newer cards
-
would love to try one, been using tape and all sorts of things.
-
Tried 10, and 7, same result on both.
Power save off yes, tried using K-boost as well to lock card into P0 state. Once GPUPI or F@H start, instantly downclocks to P8 mode @ 405 mhz.
you could try nvidia power mizer manager, I can't remember if I had to use that but the last time I ran that bench was with a 980. Or you could try to edit your bios and change the lower state clocks.
also did you try with the normal bios for the 6320.

Better than not knowing what scores are legit and what scores are cheated.
I don't know about that, I mean I spent months and tons of money on my 6700k xtu score and to have it erased because there is a tweak/bug that I didn't even know about would really suck. It would be nice if they could figure out a way to determine if it was used or not instead of deleting all points. I only have 4 xtu scores towards my global profile so it wouldn't hurt me that much, it just feels like the principle of the matter.
HOW TO bench full pot on Asus Maximus VIII series
in Skylake/Kaby Lake/Coffee Lake (-X) (Z170/Z270/Z370/X299) OC
Posted · Edited by Strong Island
this thread helped me a lot with my ocf and 6320/6700k.
Full pot benching on 6320 last night with not a single crack all night after hours of benching. My first real full pot session on skylake where I could really just fill to top and let run.
The most important things for me were the extending of the die with the thermal paste.
Also I think most important for me was not playing around at lower temperatures which I used to always do just to slowly walk up and see what cpu could do. Now straight to -160 and fine tune from there.
Thanks so much for the thread, I feel so happy. I was so frustrated, I even took a break for awhile because I wasnt having fun with all the cracks.
