guys, wanna ask something here about the memory pairing with sandy bridge cpu before i buy sandy bridge. because now still not many ram special made for sandy on sale ( except ripjaws x series, but hard to get in malaysia). so my question is will there any chance a kingston 2133c9 , dominator gt 2133c9 or dominator gt 2000c8 and clock the speed at 2200 cl7 something like the ripjaws x speed? cause i know the sandy bridge memory controller is stronger right?

Maximus tends to BCLK up itself from 100 to 101.5, while other mobos is still 98.5 at default lol. I got 84GFlops when up vcore a few notches and BCLK shot up itself to 101.5 during LinX.

i dont have such a issue

GFlops will either up or down. GFlops will be constant once ure at optimum vcore. The GFlops wont increase after this point. GFlops increases when BCLK is increased. But GFlops will drop when u push CPU PLL higher. Means CPU is not giving the actual performance in terms of GFlops when u alter the CPU PLL.

@owikh

is that some sort of features provided by asus in m4e ? auto boost bclk on stress system ?

@cstkl1

so ur saying that vCore has nothing to do with the PLL is it ?
optimize both for best performance is it ?

does this mean that at optimum vCore and PLL the SB will perform at its best ?

but increasing vCore might reduce or improve system but resulting in not completely stable system ?

and higher PLL simply means lower gFlops ?

PLL doesnt hurt my GFolps, turning off AI suite helps me in getting 84Glops on HT and 132GFlops HT off. Meanwhile i just need to enable internal PLL overvolt 51x onwards.

Hi im using i5 2400 and Asus P8P67 mobo. For this chipset design flaw, am i have to return back this processor and mobo to whom actually?, please guide me..

So far my rig works fine.
