yas one doesn't count, cheatin one... mad.gif tongue.gif laugh.gif

how u guys reduce d temp of pwmic? i found that it's freakin hot, d temp is proportional to d amount of voltage pumped to d chip... sweat.gif

60'C of pwmic temp is abit too much for me, considerin i only applied 1.325v of vcore, imagine if i put 1.4v of vcore... sad.gif

guys, need some help here... wat cud be d reason (in particular) of system freeze after primin for hours? my system is stable when prime with small fft (8-512K), but when i run blend test, freeze happened. sad.gif

i admit that expert is harder to tame if compared to ultra-d, but there must be a way, just short of time to find out what is d culprit as i'm busy w job huntin lately... sweat.gif

ram settings, ldt voltage, chipset voltage or vdimm? i notice that expert needs more juice than ultra-d or nf4-d. still my nf4-d is d best of all so far, but it's resided in my gf rig currently... tongue.gif

It seems that all the voltages were at stock, increasing it might help i think. Especially the vChipset and vLDT and vCore.

yup, i just increase d ldt voltage by one notch, mebe should try increasin d chipset voltage as well. nothing wrong w d vcore i guess since it passed small fft w/o problem, headache comes when ram is involved... cry.gif

expert is for "expert" only  laugh.gif
ram setting could be the factor and it's more difficult to tweak compare with nf4 older series. btw, expert vdimm overvolt 0.01v or almost same as the value in bios unlike overvolt much in older nf4, that's why sometime it need higher vdimm.
*
yup, mebe am just an expert wanna be... laugh.gif am tryin to burn it w/ memtest test currently, mebe d ram need time to settle in w d new mobo. too much option available in d bios for this expert, but am kinda like it even it's torturin me now... tongue.gif

I think what limits my x2 overclocking is the psu. I increase all the voltage also cannot go, errors at the 2 round most of the time. Time to get the fortron 700w.. hmm.gif

am aimin ocz now but pocket empty, they just come out w new series lately if i'm not mistaken. biggrin.gif

the bios is almost same as nf4 series if I remember correctly, just the ds/dds option more advance.  smile.gif  some tips for you, try the lowest value first, weak 1/ lvl 1 instead of auto and the yellow slot in expert mobo is "cacat"  tongue.gif

why dont go for corsair psu?  icon_idea.gif
*
exactly... can't even boot up even i've tried to switch d position. doh.gif i'm usin lvl 14 now, so far memtest ok. odd no = weak while even = normal, d smaller d no. d weaker it is, rite gsan bro? auto wud be d strongest of normal if 'im not mistaken (wild guess only since it starts w 1 instead of 0). hmm.gif

corsair modular psu? hmm... modular psu is not my cup of tea leh... tongue.gif

as I knoe, lvl 9 and above is for 4 dimm, but I never try before. you're right, odd=weak and even=normal. my bh5 can up to ds/dds 8/4 at 250MHz @ 2-2-2-5, any frequency above it have to tweak from the lowest value. if I not remember wrongly, OPB suggest that only set ds to lvl 1 then tweak around the dds from lvl 1.
*
i see... shoud try ds = lvl 8 then. same here, i alwez use dds = lvl 4 for tight timin ram. i thought tight timin ram shud use normal, only tccd or high frequency modules use weak ds eg. lvl 1, 3, 5 or 7? hmm... will give it a try after i'm settled w gettin a new job, as for now, work is more important... sweat.gif
