Guest Bullant Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 (edited) Hi all,is that time again new platform and lots more cold memory action ahah Had this platform for little over 2 weeks,so it's still all new to me,I did finally run some cold memory's for the first time yesterday.Will continue to post many more results as I learn this new platform,will also try to post from different ics,AU is little limited on the new memory's atm The new Z170 OCF once again was really nice to use,Nick has done a great job on the board and bios once again Hynix 3736Mhz 11-15-15-28 46-48 rtls 4-4 iols Edited September 5, 2015 by Bullant Quote
zeropluszero Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 on this platform you should probably be testing XTU as well. Quote
sabishiihito Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 Testing MFR using tips from the thread about the ROG boards and RTL/IOL optimization. 3200C11 45/46/2/2 passed 32M. 3333C12 is also done. Quote
sabishiihito Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 Test on XP 32-bit, seems slow? Dominator Platinum 3000C14 MFR@3000C11 4.7 CPU/4.5 cache Ripjaws V 3200C16 Samsung@3733C15 4.8 CPU/cache Quote
sabishiihito Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 ^need maxmem + lsc. Forgot about large system cache, I set maxmem=600 but it doesn't seem to take effect Quote
l0ud_sil3nc3 Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 Forgot about large system cache, I set maxmem=600 but it doesn't seem to take effect Go to start>run>msconfig>boot>advanced options is where you should be setting it, followed by a restart. Quote
sabishiihito Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 Go to start>run>msconfig>boot>advanced options is where you should be setting it, followed by a restart. Exactly, that's where I set it. Task Manager seems to report 600MB correctly but CPU-Z still shows 8GB. I can assume it's just a CPU-Z issue then. Quote
Guest Bullant Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 (edited) When did this happen air,cold?could be moisture if you were cold You tried Reseat CPU Check no bent pins in CPU socket aswell as memory sockets Try one dim by itself in each channel,different dims also Check nothing is in the memory channels Have another CPU try Different memory Take the battery out for 3-5 minutes Clean the gold fingers of memory I don't have any the spray the guys use never needed it but it's also something you can look into also Edited September 9, 2015 by Bullant Quote
Guest Bullant Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 One other thing if you vas make sure that's not your problem,vas in CPU or memory socket can cause problems Quote
Guest Bullant Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 (edited) Nicks auto values volts on those two should work fine,have you tested 1 dim at a time to see if each dim does close to clocks your trying to do,also make sure you remove battery for bit a start fresh I haven't really tried much more volts then the auto values of those two to be honest I lowered one and got more stability,anything is possible with memory tho,up down volts I don't know what max of those two volts are tho Edited September 10, 2015 by Bullant Quote
Guest Bullant Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 You can try setting subs auto then see if it ok at 3333 then tight subs up manually,Im not sure if it would help but can always re flash bios see if that helps,it really is just trying everything and eliminate everything until you find the problem...that could also be a faulty item Quote
Random Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 (edited) Thanks, I am gonna be more patient with it I guess. I am just not used to struggling to OC my binned HOT sticks. Usually I can just set what I want and it goes.. lol That and i thought it was freezing but it was just taking a while to get to login screen for c12 2800... wow c12 2800... they do c11 3250 32m on air but struggle with c12 3000 on this skylakr... just...

Guest Bullant Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 You haven't left slow mode on? Those hot 3333 sticks you have ?i was trying to get a kit if these recently but never heard back from the guy,they could possibility do 38xx cl11 tight on cold Quote
Guest Bullant Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 (edited) Yeah you should be in black slots dude,that will help,I thought you would of had them in the black ones as I think all boards are like this so I'm assuming things haven't changed Edited September 10, 2015 by Bullant Quote
marmott Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 The OCF is different than the other mobos, you really need to use the black slots because of the memory traces layout. Quote
Guest Bullant Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 Yeah running memory in the wrong slots will restrict your memory clocks dude Quote
Random Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 Wasnt an issue with the x99m killer 3.1(all slots oc'd basically the same save for slight voltage variations), forgot which ones were bad for z-series Working better now though Quote
marmott Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 The X99M Killer/3.1 mobo is 1DPC (DIMM Per Channel) while the Z170 is 2DPC, it would be quite ackward for the X99 mobo to have big difference for each slots. But on Z170 if one memory bank is good and the other not as much on each channel then it only affects OC when you use 4 modules. Quote
Guest Bullant Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 (edited) Yeah im not sure about x99 totally different platform,now it's sorted start posting is a awesome board Thanks for comment marmott Some results from couple days ago from z170 ocf Edited September 10, 2015 by Bullant Quote

rtsurfer Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 A question not specifically related to this board but to the Z170 chip set, did anyone one you guys notice that the RAM is asking for more Vdimm for a set profile vs X99. For Example, 3000C11 needing 1.65V on X99 & 1.7V on Z170. Is this only happening to me or universal. ? Quote
sabishiihito Posted September 10, 2015 Posted September 10, 2015 I think it is not uncommon for kits that were released for X99 to need more volts on Z170. Why that is however is a different question. Quote
