anyone of you have tried g.skill perfect storm 2000 cas8 elpida hyper on this mobo?

with me this ram don't run super-pi 32M or any stress test at default frequency and timings

i think that there is some kind of incompatibility with the mobo
i tried bios 428 pre-beta, 619 and 724 but nothing change

thanks

hello everyone !
Eva and cstkl1...you are just great !!!...this thread rocks !!
I'm new here and new in OC-ing . I run i7 920 D0 #3930A309 , dfi x58 t3e-h8, gtx295, ocz blade 2000 cl7.
My goal is :i7@4000Mhz (20x200) ddr3@2000 7-7-7-20 1T(Eva, i read your thread about dominator gt cl7 - my ocz are using same Elpida chips - so i guess oc is almost the same). But till then i get stuck with my first problem. I follow the steps that "cstkl1" wrote them here:i7 920 D0 - DFI UT X58-T3EH8 prime95/linx stability ?

here is my BIOS for the moment

Genie BIOS Setting CPU Feature Set VR Current Limit Max: Disabled Thermal Management Control: Disabled EIST Function: Disabled CxE Function: Disabled Execute Disable Bit: Disabled Virtualization Technology: Disabled TDC Enable: Disabled x TDC Limit: 0 TDP Enable: Disabled x TDP Limit: 0 ***** Logical Processor Setting ***** Intel HT Technology: disable Active Processor Cores: All DRAM Timing Channel Interleave Setting: 6 Rank Interleave Setting: 4 Memory LowGap: 2304M (for gtx295 ) DRAM Command Rate: auto CAS Latency Time (tCL):auto RAS# to CAS# Delay (tRCD): auto RAS# Precharge (tRP): auto Precharge Delay (tRAS): auto REF to ACT Delay (tRFC): AUTO Write to PRE Delay (tWR): AUTO Rank Write to Read (tWTR): AUTO ACT to ACT Delay (tRRD): AUTO Row Cycle Time (tRC): AUTO Read CAS# Precharge (tRTP): AUTO Four ACT WIN Time (tFAW): AUTO Voltage Setting O.C.

So i'm at first step...finding Vcore
runing linx 0.63 - 5.12G (max i can get) 10 rounds for 3 times with restarts ..etc...ROCK SOLID !!
But going to BIOS and Enable HT ...just HT !!.....i'm getting BSOD in 20 sec in LInx.

What am i missing ?...thanks!

ok here is a table for u guys to understand

take note its only possible to find ure scaling and vtt/dram ratio and vtt/vcore ration when u have a very strong confirmed base

for mine after 4-5 boards
my bclk 200 confirmed



if u notice the downward/upward trend is to maintain the scaling
if i change and confirm one voltage i need to adjust the other two to make sure it stays on that trend

also sometimes u need more bios options to maintain this trend.
the dfi doesnt have enough.

and also it will quickly point out proc/ram/mobo/cooling limitations.
the trend tends to work best at below 80C

Guess this post got caught in moderation queue as you you have your thread at DFI X58 UT T3E-H8 HT ON !! now

Interesting, thanks for table so we can see it more clearly

Thanks eva2000 for testing and info on this DFI mobo.
I just bought it myself,will be starting testing next weekend,need some trichannel memory,then im go

You're going to love this board. I have had nothing but good luck with it since I bought it. These threads on here have been more than helpful in getting my chip to 4.4GHz with fast RAM speeds.

Now if Kingston could just send me a good set of RAM...

Well I just got this board with an i7 920, batch 3931A324.

I started overclocking and these were my PWM temps within 4 minutes, with the flame freezer installed using a good bit of OCZ Freeze. Should it be RMA'ed?

hi Norz glad to hear

Hi Dopamin3

for pwm temps read T3eH8: very high PWM temps for discussion on pwm temps and ways to reduce the temps. It's usually normal due to individual cpu and board variances. For example my W3520 runs cpu cooler than my early i7 920 c0/d0 3851s but PWM temps were higher on W3520 on DFI UT X58-T3EH8.
