Asus Rampage II Gene at MADSHRIMPS
 
Board just arrived this afternoon, haven't had the time to make any pictures yet (but still to follow), because I wanted to quick-test the board for it's overclockability.

200/2000 doesn't work, as with most motherboards, straight out-of-the-box so more tweaking is necessary.

NOTE: Vqpi swings between 1.4 and 1.45 when set at 1.4v. Bios problem or board problem or maybe something else?

Massman 9th May 2009 22:23

Vqpi isn't bios-related, so probably board-related, which isn't good.

I'm in need of 1.5v (bios) to run Uncore at 4GHz 32M stable, which is about 0.1v more than I need on the DFI. Quite a significant difference!

Triple channel 1GHz CL7 with 1.65v seems véry unstable: 2M runs fluently, but crashes already at 4M loop1. In single/dual channel, I don't notice too much issue :)

upped IOH voltages ? seems to do the trick on the RE II

Back to I7 roundup and looking after some double performanc on the Asrock lol.... need to get at least 6500 points for 3dmark at 280FSB I'm maxing at 4.3K lol (but shite 4:3 divider)

Yes, briefly, but no improvement on the stability.

I was able to run 32M with triple channel just a few minutes ago, but after reboot, same 4M issue :-/

After some tweaking, I seem to have gotten the same level of stability again: 32M ran perfectly. For future reference, these are the settings I used and that were stable:

So messing with the ref volts on Channel C did the trick ? Never messed with those before, it seems you are never too old to learn :p

Are those settings Hyperpi 32M stable ?

Massman 10th May 2009 11:12

I don't know what fixes the issue, because after a reboot, the 32M stable settings are again 4M unstable. I presume it's some kind of timing I set to AUTO that has to be configured right

Massman 10th May 2009 11:35

Found the setting that's making my system stable:

Back-to-back CAS delay: 12

All other tested settings are back to auto :)
