I never had to put extra IOH VCore 1.1v past its default or ICH VCore 1.05v past its default and I did benching up to 5.2ghz. I think those are unnecessary volts to be adjusting.

Maybe this will help you out but this is what I was using at 5.153ghz in SuperPi32m under DICE. Just comparison sakes.



I actually started using less vcore in the end. I wanna say around 1.45-1.48v.

What ram are you running CP?
It seems there is something hinky with your ram settings, as 1 SS is reporting 6 GB dual channel and the other 2 are reporting 4 GB single channel. It should be showing 6 GB triple channel.

Thanks Dr! For me however, anything over 4.2ish if i don't bump the IOH it won't be stable. I probably bumped the IOH more than I should've there though.

I am using Nanya 3X2GB DDR3 1066. The reason that you see 4GB on one screen shot and 6GB on the other is because I was trying different RAM configs. I started off using all three sticks. Then I removed them and swapped them out for a 2X1GB of Corsair's, DDR3 1333. But I only had 1GB usable so benches were actually slower. So I put back my 3X2GB kit, but only with two sticks. Only 2GB were usable in windows. I have set my Memory Low Gap before and no matter what I set it at when I have all three sticks installed it uses 2GB for the card and stuff. only 3.99 useable in windows.

Well there is two separate IOH VCores now. An IOH Vcore 1.1v and an IOH/ICH I/O Voltage 1.5v. You have to bump them both up?

just the IOH.

I usually leave the IOH/ICH/I/O one on auto as I don't know what it does.

ioh.ich i/o it is good to give it some juice when 3D benching or running more than one video card.

Cant believe you got past 222 BCLK. Going to give it one more try before I Ebay my i7 setup.

What does that voltage do exactly?

Anyhow, let us know if you can get past that bro, up the PCI-E frequency a mhz or two.

I have run up to 110 PCIE freq trying to pass 222, but did not try something as low as 102, will try it again and see if a specific freq opens it up or not.

102-103 did it for me

Posting from the phone. Currently running 3dmark 06. Previous run already got me about a boint or so, this run if it finishes will be better. I'll post my results from tonight after this run. It'll be my last run of the night, gotta go to bed.
