DDR5-8400 38-49-49 TM5 Anta777 Extreme1 5 Minutes no error, MC SP 70! 0809 BIOS

Screenshot (21).jpg

Hi SF,

My replacement Z790 Apex came in last week - had to wait an entire 1.5 months from payment to delivery but I finally got around to installing it into my daily driver a few days ago and wow - this board is memory overclock easy mode! That being said, I tried to replicate your settings above and had no problem posting and getting into OS but stability tests failed. I'm certain it is related to third and maybe secondary timings and was wondering if you had a screenshot you could share of your memtweak app?

As always, thanks for your contributions to the community!

Have played lots now with the z790 Apex and it works like a charm.. Now for some reason my 2x GTX 590s will not work in the relevant SLI configuration thus recognizing 4x GPUs. I thought it had to do with PCIE lanes but alas  that does not seem to be the issue. I just installed my 12900ks and my 2x GTX590s in my Z690 Tachyon and imagine it works like a charm.

Well my tachyon wont do the same memory speeds as the Z790 Apex thus i would really want to get that working. is there a solution in any bios version? or can we have one.

Z790 Apex does not have official SLI support, even force flashing a Z690 Apex bios does not give it support. Hopefully W790 will have it though.

 

Edit: You can use something like HyperSLI for windows 7 benches, not sure if that's what you are doing though.

I see some of the guys with DRAM speeds above 10000 are using what seems to be 1-channel mode as reported in  CPUz.  I have seen on several subs with bios 0021.  I use the same but have not found a way to turn off one channel any tips?

Dram settings, settings after all the timings. You can disable memory channels. For example with stick in second slot, disable the first 3 channels.

How can we stop the apex z790 from downclocking the CPU to 4800 Mhz under AVX512 runs.  I am using 0022 bios so got the AVX512 active already . To note i am using the 12600K CPU. is there another bios or just a setting. So far i have not been able to with the  AVX offset settings even if i set them to 0.if i set the cores and 0 offset in XTU it will give me higher speed  than 4800 but down clocks 100Mhz always from set core speed also during AVX512 run.

Just gave up on my tachyon z690 which never seem to work on this either except there i can atleast run 5400 in the 5500 limit competition.... sigh....

To continue  on this one. I am using bios 0021 and i see if i do "mode2": it should switch into gear 4 but that does not happen. so what is the trick to get the system over to gear 4. I dont see any settings anywhere for this.

It's where you set mem clocks, there is mem to imc ratio
