Looks like the new Llanos don't play nice with gigabyte boards and cpuz, doesn't matter what bios. Assuming this doesn't get fixed before the comp is over, will a screenshot of EasyTune suffice for mem freq?

We had this issue during the Country Cup too. Have you tried:

 

- installing the chipset drivers

- putting the memory in the dram socket nearest to the cpu

 

We had the issue fixed.

[just_nuke_em]

Yeah, tried the various drivers on gigabyte's site, didn't help. Haven't tried the closest dram slot. Only used the outer ones on my runs so far.

 

I'll give it a shot later. Thanks.

[Massman]

Did it work?

how are enthusiast class OCers supposed to compete against people running LN2, kind of a one sided competition, no offence to the people who do use extreme cooling methods such as LN2, its just unfair to the enthusiast class to be placed in competition with people thats sporting LN2

Finally got back around to messing with this chip. Putting the ram in the slot closest to the socket worked.

okay, spent two whole days to figure out how to do more than 162 MHz ref clock on air and more than 170 MHz under cold. No way

[just_nuke_em]

Yeah... you guys getting over 160 will have to shed some light on that works when this is over. Hitting my head against the wall on that one.

[Christian Ney]

just teasing

[just_nuke_em]

Damn son, way to push that board

[dinos22]
