Administrators websmile Posted October 26, 2016 Administrators Posted October 26, 2016 In my opinion all works fine, but the sensors are somehow messed up, maybe calibration was broken or whatever, performance of the board is still ok. After I tested both BIOS chips and flashed BIOSes and MEIs, I rather think it is monitoring chip than BIOS issue Quote
Administrators websmile Posted October 27, 2016 Administrators Posted October 27, 2016 (edited) Is there a way to set up sli in this board with BIOs 1.21B or 1,31 I missed? I tried xp and win7, several different drivers and 250gts as well as 8800gts 512mb and it showed no option to enable sli... Edit seems I did not bench old sli in a long time, thx for the heads up to digg de and bullshooter Edited October 27, 2016 by websmile Quote
Guest Digg_de Posted October 27, 2016 Posted October 27, 2016 I've damaged the Socket on my mOCF (miss 3 Pins, Board works Single Channel only) and there is no way to repair it.. makes me really sad. Quote

No way you can send to Asrock and pay for repairs? Dont know Asrock warranty terms but you may try Enviado desde mi A0001 mediante Tapatalk Quote
Guest Digg_de Posted October 27, 2016 Posted October 27, 2016 RMA/Service & Logistics Department Dear customer, We can't repair the motherboards in Europe, only in Asia. This process normally takes around 6 months, with RMA we normally offer a replacement. But because we can't RMA your board, we also can't offer you a replacement. Best regards, Quote
Samsarulz Posted October 27, 2016 Posted October 27, 2016 Sorry to read that. At least you tried . Enviado desde mi A0001 mediante Tapatalk Quote
Guest Digg_de Posted October 29, 2016 Posted October 29, 2016 Yes, i've sent a Mail to ASRock RMA Service, but they don't repair or replace it (for money). Next Board is a Impact VIII. Peace out. Quote
Wraith Posted November 4, 2016 Posted November 4, 2016 When overclocking your cpu on air/water cooling, are there any other voltages related to the cpu, apart from vcore voltage, that help improve overclocking and stability, and reduce the need to increase the cpu vcore volts as much ? Quote
Splave Posted November 4, 2016 Author Posted November 4, 2016 Nope! You can keep cache lower than core might help you raise core with lower volts but thats about it Quote
RULE Posted November 15, 2016 Posted November 15, 2016 (edited) Hi fellas, some of you may had see i was able to run 4133+ with tight RTL (49-6/50-6) on MOCF. The idea is to give you some tip to squeeze out everything from this amazing board. Since a lot of people was trashing about MOCF could not run tight RTL and tight tcke, and because we are at the end of this generetion of ic/cpu, there's maybe not much interest in what will follow. But still if i can help at least one person, this will make me feel more happy. The main reason behind most of user can retrain tight RTL is not due to a problem or a bad engineering but is the opposite way around, the retrain of this board is too much well engineered, this will cover better later. This task might be not easy for me since English is not my natural lenguage, so please forgive me in advance. INTRO: -Memory overclock is like a boring-fun, if you like that you know what i mean, rush no need, patience and dedication is what we need. For example to be able tu run the MaxxMem Read bandwidth WR i took 3 hours to setup the mem at 4320c12-11 and less than 30 minutes to take the score. -I've tested 3 different MOCF and MB binnig should not be necessary here. The first one is dead too much early to be compared, but the other 2 i'm 100% positive have no difference between them. -Strong IMC is a must have but don't forget to maxout yours. I've 2 6700k with strong IMC both to be maxout need 1,35io/1,45sa, don't be afraid to kill your cpu, is part of the game -SS is cool for testing memory but still not enought to maxout our IMC. Best temp for maxout IMC is bootup close to CBB around -125°c and run benchmark in os at least at -150°c. CB should be around -160°c without any particular setting. RTL/IOL -There's 2 kind of RTL retrain, 1 will end up with 50-51-6-6 one will end up with 50-51-7-7. Why end up? Well andvance user already know that, if you have 58-59-14-14 is the same of 50-51-6-6 since : 58 minus 8=50 / 59 minus 8=51 / 14 minus 8=6 In the firt topic Allen say you can move RTL as you wish, this is true, but i suggest you to move one channel at the time. Leave one channel in auto (RTL+IOL) substract the same value for the RTL and same value for the IOL of the same channel then retrain. If you are in the right volt range motherboard will retrain easy peasy the other channel by itself. (a couple of retrain might be necesary) -The previus phrase: 'If you are in the right volt range' is the key of your success. In order to force our board to be able to run 49-50-6-6 at 4133+ we need to find the right voltage for our mem/imc to run 50-51-6-6 (leaving the bios value in AUTO). When we found that voltage, we need to force our board to retrain with worse RTL 50-51-7-7 in order to do that we need to reduce the voltage a bit on the mem, then retrain. When our board successfully menage to retrain 50-51-7-7 (leaving the bios value in AUTO) is time to come back in beloved voltage range and force the situation putting the value in the bios 49-50-6-6. -If you fail, yeah because you will as i do , you need to come back to one mem multiplayer less (eg. 4133->4000) leaving the RTL/IOL AUTO and try again the step before this maybe changing slightly the beloved voltage. Is recommended this sequence: 1-bootup Nick's 4k tight profile 2-change tRFC to 240 (much easier for 4133) 3-bootup 4133 4-find right voltages who give you auto 50-51-6-6 5-lower a bit that voltage until your MB auto retrain 50-51-7-7 6-put back the step 4 voltage and force value in bios to 49-50-6-6 7-If you fail came back to 4k Nick's profile Why the retrain of this board is too much well engineered? Because as you can see the board keep retrain the most lower but stable RTL possible. Since this work for me in 2 difference board and 3 difference mem brand with different ic and different voltage tollerance, hope this might work also for you. If you have any doubt feel free to ask, here or on FB Enjoy Franco Edited November 15, 2016 by RULE 1 Quote
Alan_Alberino Posted November 19, 2016 Posted November 19, 2016 (edited) Nick Shih just posted this on Facebook: New bios for Z170M ocf. 1.Add more memory control timings for tuning. 2.Update Ln2 profiles 3.Update Dmi Gen Speed control for some pcie cold bug issue Will have new bios for Z170 ocf to solve b die 1T command as well Picx.xfastest.com/nickshih/bios/Z17MOCF133K.zip Also new 7.10 bios available at Asrock Page, but don't recommend installing since is bunnyextraction for OC and doesnt let you change 4th timings and RTLs/IOLs...

scannick Posted December 10, 2016 Posted December 10, 2016 (edited) I'm having a big problem with pcie slot, it can't run at 16x, only 8x. I tried many VGA, different bios and OS Any idea ? Edited December 10, 2016 by scannick Quote
Sparks.nl Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 (edited) I have a problem in Windows XP. My m OCF does not seem to run Formula Drive in Windows XP (32b). Version 3.0.31 installs but does not work. It gives me "This Utility is not for this platform". Version 3.0.94 installs but does not work. It gives me "The procedure entry point GetSystemFirmwareTable could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.DLL". Does anybody know how I to solve the the problem? Edit: I tried bios 1.40 and P7.30. Edit 2: Never mind - PROBLEM SOLVED with version 3.0.78 - Strange that newer versions don't work. Edited January 1, 2017 by Sparks.nl Quote
RULE Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 Not sure about 7.30 but version v3.0.92.2 works well on 7.21B I suggest you to use that Inviato dal mio SM-A300FU utilizzando Tapatalk Quote
Sparks.nl Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 I am using version 78 now. Since it cost me 2 hours I keep this version and keep your advice in my mind if I get troubles. Thanks Quote
Administrators websmile Posted January 2, 2017 Administrators Posted January 2, 2017 I have this problem as well, when it is working for other guys, it might be my windows or mei, will check this again when I have time, I now tested all later versions Quote
rtsurfer Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 I have similarish issues with 7.21B & 3.0.92.2 on XP where the sliders show up but the readings don't. So I don't know value I'm setting since readings are empty. Same combination of FD/BIOS working for friends tho. Bizzare... Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk Quote
l0ud_sil3nc3 Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 @Sparks\.nl 3.0.92.2 works fine with any of the latest bios see here: Quote
Alan_Alberino Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 Its a bug that was fixed later, Nick Shih posted update at his Facebook, here's direct download link for fixed version: http://picx.xfastest.com/nickshih/asrock/AFDSetup(v3.0.92.2).rar 1 Quote
Sparks.nl Posted January 2, 2017 Posted January 2, 2017 (edited) Thanks, I will download it later. Edit: Seems to work fine Edited January 2, 2017 by Sparks.nl Quote
