How come my clocked i7 920@ 3.6Ghz have lower score compare to i7 930@ 2.9Ghz (Turbo boost) in Vantage score? Both same running Win 7 x64 bit.. sweat.gif

Lolzzz, my question might get you all confuse tongue.gif

I mean the CPU score for both comparison. I dont know if GPU affecting the CPU score..

i7 920@ 3.8Ghz vs i7 930@ 2.9Ghz

Does the RAM divider thinggy really affect such huge performance?? hmm.gif

^ Hmm Im just comparing the CPU score tongue.gif But since GPU also affecting CPU score, then just leave it. Darn, time to upgrade GPU?? laugh.gif laugh.gif

Btw, I do increase my clock from 3.22Ghz@ 1.18V till 3.8Ghz@ 1.18V seems to be stable(passed LinX atleast) but at 4Ghz, the voltage 1.18V appear BSOD. Do I need to raise the CPU voltage alone or the others voltage also need increment, such QPI, DRAM, IOH etc?

Current setup(BIOS):-

CPU Clock: 201x19
CPU Voltage: 1.18V
QPI Link: 1.28V
IOH: 1.18V
DRAM Voltage: 1.60V
UCLK: 3.4Ghz
RAM Divider: 2:8, 1T

Increase vCore 1st, followed by vQPI (VTT) and vDIMM.
Google for BIOS settings

Alright boss, gonna try soon.

Thanks for the advice~

I tried but i cant get pass LinX at least..

Setting:
CPU: i7 920@ 201 x20
VCore: 1.18v till 1.25v, no luck
QPI Voltage: 1.31v
IOH Voltage: 1.22v
DRAM Voltage: 1.62v, Default timming, 1:8
UCLK: 3.22Ghz

The rest are all AUTO.. Any suggestion?

for i7, you need higher vcore for 20x multiplier. you can try 21x multiplier to get lower stable voltage.

Hmm the 20x not really suit for i7 right?
I found few forum said that 20x just crap for i7.. they prefer 19 or 21.. laugh.gif laugh.gif

OK guys, I have a problem in using bclk 200MHz.

I can get my 197MHz x 20, Vcore 1.27 Bios (1.31 CPU-z), 1.31 VTT and 1.65Vdimm pass Linx 20 runs no problem.

But yesterday I tried 200MHz x20,x19 and x18 but couldn't get it to past limx for more than 50 seconds.
I pumped the Vcore until 1.32v but got nothing, then I push the VTT to 1.37 (Vdimm 1.68 constant) but no improvement whatsoever.

The thing is, no matter what settings I use, if it involves 200MHz bclk then my screen will freeze after running Linx for 30-50 seconds.

I tried one of the bro Cstkl settings but it improves nothing.
Again, the screen freezed on my initial run for the first test. It's the same all over again~

Everything done on my DK in diagnostic mode.
i7 920 D0 with megashadow Push/pull, 6GB Dominator 1600MHz cl7 ver2.2, DFI DK, HD5870, Acbel M8 750w.

Try this:-

Enable "Load-line Calibration" thingy IF avail. in BIOS
Set IOH & ICH to 1.2V for both
QPI Voltage to 1.32V raise again IF fail by 1 stage, or just shoot for 1.35V.. laugh.gif laugh.gif
VDimm just need around 1.64V

geng use more ram

trust me..
if u run in diagnostic mode with nothing on .. u can linx around 5518

this is like freaking hard..
i can pass like 5400 etc for 100 runs
but will hang on this sometimes on 3 run lol..

and normally tweaking minor and ram settings etc..

I tried previously but I cant wait.. Too long & I need to play BF2 also~ laugh.gif laugh.gif

I'm sorry but can you explain to me the logic of pushing the IOH and ICH voltage? Thanks~

It helps with overclocking the QPI frequency, that what I know from surfing OC forums rclxms.gif

i never hard to raise ioh voltage until 215
even on sli, crossfire etc

laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif 215??

That must be extreme ones~ doh.gif

If it overheats to be dead, probably there would be irremovable marks that can invalidate warranty right? Not a good idea  laugh.gif

Bah, bad idea. I'll just live with the faithful i7 920. It is so tough that it can take any abuse.

Then, OC it with default voltage lorr, sure no burn mark~ laugh.gif laugh.gif

Thanks for the input.
So those temp are normal. I have ran prime95 blend test for 10 minutes and the temp were WOW  shocking.gif

realtemp w/ HT (full load)

72
70
70
69

I think 75C is the CPU threshold right?  sweat.gif
Just want to know is it save for me to OC to 3.2 first on this weekend ? due to the heat  sweat.gif

If my temp. as such, it would be very very nice. I would be grateful, too bad my setup cannot hold such temperature.. Zzz

You can check my temp. during priming Here. It shows by RealTemp under the Maximum box laugh.gif laugh.gif

ur dram timing should be 9-9-9-24-88-1T
and run LinX to the max memory in normal mode or full amount in diagnostic mode
max memory settings, click "All" button or pick the last memory size option from the drop down menu, the "All" option is highly recommended
20 runs should last about 1 hour
for diagnostic mode, go to START menu > Run (or hotkey win logo + R) > type msconfig > diagnostic startup
*
Ehh, I wonder bout QPI Link thingy
Is there any different between higher & lower value in performance?
In stability, which is recommended?

Thanks~

Slower QPI mode could help in achieving higher BCLK, easier.

What the recommended speed? I dont find any menus in BIOS which allow me to lowered my QPI..
