I try to find the option in advance mode. but can't find it anywhere. no luck with google either

Anyway, another question. In overclocking memory, better with tight timing or higher frequency?

Thanks. Later will post my RAM oc. Still learning

Added on August 15, 2012, 10:00 amneed help oc'ing my ram (see my sig). I tried running it at 2133 with timing 12-12-12-28-1T vdimm 1.65V. Ran 8 inst of memtest for more than 6 hours without error. but when i ran linpack, it stopped after 3min or so, saying error found. so, is the ram setting stable or not?

Revert to default RAM setting will pass linpack? Just try to sort out whether your CPU OC is confirmed successful. Linpack will stress both CPU & RAM.

No issues running linpack at default ram setting. Any advice on how do I oc the ram?

then it's the mem OC issue.
I don't own this RAM perhaps you should go thru this review:

GSKILL SNIPER Memory, Ripjaw-X 33% OC 1600 to 2133MHz

hi bro ,

ALready change cooler..using my old tuniq tower 120 extreme..
trying to overclock to 4.5ghz..stable for 30min..then it just freeze..i press reset button need wait 5-10 sec then pc off..need turn on back..this symptom need more vcore? or memory problem?

vCore & mem or graphic card also possible.
since you're not OC your RAM or graphic card so I believe it has something to do with the CPU OC.
Try increase vCore if your cooling still allows.

nice guide. easy to understand even for newbie. i tried googling the guide for ram such as mine before but no luck. will try it tonight. thanks

no problemo... yeah indeed a completely organized & intuitive OC guide
Added to the post #1

Yup im using that guide for my oc..easy to understand and if got bsod also got guide already what to adjust hehe..manage to stabilize my 4.5 increase vcore offset +0.0095v ..ram 1.60v..after 30minit prime test temp stay 95-105 ..arghhh..i have to stop it..

-Linx run at 1300H. It's very warm in my room. *phew!*
-Idle temp at night is:
>Core 0 32c
>Core 1 39c
>Core 2 34c
>Core 3 35c
-Linx finished. (Memory "All")
-Run in "Diagnostic mode".
-1.165v in bios.
-Load line calibration "Extra high"

4.5ghz


Another Linx session. Run since about 2200H.
-Linx finished. (Memory "All")
-Run in "Diagnostic mode".
-1.180v in bios.
-Load line calibration "Extra high"

4.6ghz


No problem for 4.6ghz, Prime95 and Linx. Haven't try IBT yet. However sometime my pc crash during gaming or difficult to turn on. Based on stress test tool, it's stable. I run the test for 3-4 times. However, I won't say it's stable since my 4.5ghz doesn't have any issue. Will try further at September and see how far it can go after holiday.

Nice attempt. Your low GFlops showed that you're not running win7 SP1 which is more stressful & more accurate way to test stability on IB. Your CPU actually needs more voltage & can only be determined on win7 SP1. In other words, no point to run LinX without win7 SP1. That's why it crashed during gaming. So get the SP1 & test again

How to check GFlops? Actually, my OS is SP1 (pirated ). Will try again later. Thanks for the info mate.

LOL. see under the column Gflops. I'm surprised. 4.6Ghz at 1.18V??? Are u sure? Try running prime95. It really stress the cpu to max. Also, may I ask what coling are you using?

I mean how to check GFlops for non SP1 or SP1? Or the value/ score specifically. Sure, and passed Prime95 and Linx but no screenshot of Prime. Prime run for 5 hour. Why not 24 hour? Because I'm using generator for electricity. About which stress the max, I leave that one on another side since it's still debatable. Some will pass Linx, fail Prime95. Some past Prime95, but fail Linx.

And for cooling, check my sig. I say it's the best cooler. Good cooling with good clearance. The reason I didn't pick Noctua, because I'm afraid of space clearance. And seems like very difficult remove ram even if the fan removed.

As ZaiNor said, you can see the GFlops thru one of the LinX columns. Since it's SP1 then it must be you are using an old LinX. Check Post #1 for the latest LinX comes with the newest linpack as well as AVX instruction.

Added on August 16, 2012, 1:42 pmNo doubt Asus mobos have the best layout especially for big cooler like Noctua & best PCIe slots placement especially for multi card SLI/CF.

Added on August 16, 2012, 1:45 pmOnce you get GFlops >100 i'm afraid you would change your view on this cooler lol

Didnt saw yout sig b4 coz browsing with phone. My bad

owikh84 If stressing using prime95 passed and failed using linpack or any other stressing tool (or the other way around), what does it indicates? Is it bad/unstable oc or is it the softwares prob?

I've checked back your Prime95 screenies looks like you're not stressing full RAM so it's not that stressful.
For prime always use custom blend full amount RAM min FFT 128k.

So, are you saying that Noctua is better than my current cooler? Or what you mean is, time for watercooling? There is this review where CM Hyper 612S perform better than NH-D14.

Yeah, I also been wondering this. Another thing that unfinished debate is OCCT vs other apps.
