elmor Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 (edited) New try Use latest official BIOS. There's nothing new in terms of LN2 overclocking, rely on your previous experiences and the M8/M9 guides.

flanker Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Whats interesting for me (experience with M10H), the memory OC seems different. I had worse results in timings and clocks than with Kabylake? It is possible (bad CPU IMC?? or some mistake at my side?) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Is there any bios for APEX X with USB Device Over Current Status Detected disabled?Already shorted two fuses near cpu and two from the back and still no go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DDR4-5000 validation on air cpu/mem is pretty easy with the right components, tight 4280 12 11 11 also easy, this platform and board maxxxes out B-die for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So 2D benching isn't much use? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the 2d benches like wprime score fine in win 7. It's just superpi that you absolutely have to run in xp for a good score. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmor Posted March 16, 2018 Author Share Posted March 16, 2018 (edited) M10A BIOS 0020 with higher voltage limits without LN2 Mode (based on 1003): http://www.mediafire.com/file/kzsxh3lerkn1u5w/ROG-MAXIMUS-X-APEX-ASUS-0020.zip With this BIOS you can adjust bclk using OC Panel without ROG Connect Plus installed. DRAM Frequency benching instructions from Shamino: Quote airmem.CMO for sorting imc or memory ln2mem.CMO for ln2 boot Procedure: Always use channel b on the outside Best results so far with rgb pcb gskill sticks Ln2 mode enable Pour down cpu -100C or so Pour down mem to -70c around Load ln2 mem profile save exit Up dram ratio to 5300 bclk 100 , pour down mem stick to -100c save exit If fail, press safe mode, enter bios prepare oc panel bclk to set say 97mhz Pour down mem stick to -140c around where most will start to be unstable And then regardless of whether it hung or not, press reset And it will train and when you see post code 32, immediately press apply for the 97mhz bclk. Ideally it will pass and hit post code ‘22’ whereby ME is stalling Immediately torch mem pot to say -80c around that is the actual stable temp for mem Then it will eventually pass post code 22 and at this point, quickly also lower bclk some more with ocpanel before entering OS Once you pass a setting like this try to max out mem before changing bclk / mem ratio BECAUSE the profile sets mrc fast boot which will not retrain unless you go safe mode or you change bclk or dram ratio -> will not retrain even if you kill psu power -> so once you get a say 5300+ boot, keep trying till sure its maxed out without retraining. To keep cold booting without retraining (as you can see the tiem consuming part is to get it to train at high freq/cold temp), always use 100bclk in bios with whichever dram ratio desired To pass training easier, at post code 32 set the lower bclk quickly from oc panel (which you need to park option at in advance before you even get to this stage , for eg before save exit or before pressing reset while in safe mode) Although the trade off with lowering at post code 32 is that it will most probably lower your max drag-able clock…. Typically you need to train at a very cold temp such as -150c to pass training for max freq but resume -80C~ quickly when ME stalls you at post code 22.

hotrod717 Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Having issues benching beyond -130*C-140*c. I follow previous guides on full pot benching. 4 different chips and 2 different boards. What is different between coffee and kaby. Had no issue with kaby fullpot to 6700mhz. Cant seem to get past 6200mhz and -140*c on coffee and Apex X. Extremely frustrated.

hotrod717 Posted March 17, 2018 Share Posted March 17, 2018 TG. I dont think its a paste issue. I have had some cracks, but that is pretty easy to hear and confirm. Definitely cold bug issues. RSVP doesn't seem to help. I have noticed none of the chips like pll term. above 1.45 much. I've had the best luck with 8600k, but after about 20-30 min beyond 140*c, once the cold really gets into the chip, the issues start. The 8700k's and 8350k havent been able to get past 140*c. Really frustrating after a pretty easy time on KB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miker2ka Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 So the 020 bios for h2o works just like 1003 bios except you dont have to use ln2 switch when pushing ram? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radi Posted April 9, 2018 Share Posted April 9, 2018 hi i can't go higher than 6660 on 4 chips ( two was pretest for 6900 gb3 ) i've try many voltage but system stop everytime at 6660 ... why please ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You sure you aren't cracking? Open any temperature monitoring utility and leave it running while you do 1 run of Cinebench at 1.6V vcore or something and make sure temps stay at 0 C.
