I don't want to get in too much detail, but due to a loss of a close relative Turrican decided to put his OC activities on hold. As he requested, we've taken down his submissions so his account won't be affecting any rankings or leagues. When Turrican decides to come back, his submissions will still be there. Thanks for understanding.

Okay - I've moved this to our R5 planning. R5 development starts this friday .

Are you using 3DMark11 V1.0.3 ?

So far, haven't seen any Trinity come close.

D0 - CPU initialization error CPU's dead.

Great results! Very unfortunate topic title, though ...

Oh - BBSE is working properly? Like in DDR3-2600+ C8-12 on air cooling? It's been a while since I tested BBSE memory on the UP7, so I might have missed the improvements made . Good to hear!

Just to clarify: F5g BIOS is not the one for improved PSC/BBSE overclocking - it's just the one fixing the tCL=12 incompatibility issues. The Slew Rate finetuning is mainly to help with bootup/post procedure but won't add additional overclocking headroom. Afaik PCB/BBSE bios is coming later. F5f is working out well for memory overclocking here:

For air, you can use any cooler.

Not sure what board it was, Cookie is swapping out so much lately ... hard to keep track of what he's benching

They're getting there. Saw some promising PSC clocks the other day ...

Z77X-UD4H - not available in retail yet, I think.

Oh, right. For all EU folks that can't get their hands on a board: mail Tina at ECS Holland (ziyun.yang@ecsholland.nl). Make sure to include "HWBOT" in the topic title ... that way you'll get higher priority .

Newegg ?

Having problems finding ECS FM1 boards ?

You don't want any info because "see topic title".

Lol. No scaling with voltage or timings but cold will magically change everything

Official spec is DDR3-1600 C11-11-11-28 1.35V, but the spec for retail kits will be quite different. Don't ask me about vendors or retail specs, that's not something I can't share. Don't want to get any vendor in trouble ... don't want partners to complain about me testing chips from other vendors (). Just trying to share some info on memory IC ...

Just a quick heads up for everyone that is waiting for the next Hynix IC to come out. Been playing around with the new -EFR IC and they are definitely not for overclockers. Default spec is something like DDR3-1600C8-8-8 and they can't be pushed higher than DDR3-2133. In fact, DDR3-2133 isn't even stable with C11 and 1.75V ... It's probably going to end up in low-end low-voltage SKUs, but no new magic ICs for overclocking. Just FYI.

Nice one, Boris!

Invite-only events are so 2005

SF3D is on a killing spree

Hicookie already did [hwbot=2323708]submission[/hwbot] Fyi - now trying to figure out how to find good IGP chips. It's not just about low VID there ...

New major revisions are about more than just the points .

Not for 99% of the users - I think it'll only include the "UGP for exotic categories"-fix.
