i5: eVga 2:8 or 2:10 divider
 

What's the magic trick to get this board to run 2:8 ram divider with the i5?

I already tried upping vtt from 1.3 to 1.6max with no luck. Vdimm from 1.60 to 1.76max. I also used Hiwa's 9 and 7 on R to W and W to R.

Also what's the pch volts supposed to help with? I see shamino's template asks us to use a 1.45pch but sometimes I lock when I'm at 1.4pch and it seems to me that system works perfectly fine with 1.1 and high mhzs.

holy smokes your hardware list is awesome...that aside

have you tried the xmp profile? try that first...

Hey Honda thanks 'dude' :)

I'll give that a try. Only thing I don't have is time :-(

Well I finally got the i5 strapped to the Cascade yesterday and I'm finally starting to play with tweaks. PCMark05/wPrime etc just to see the board reactions before the Ln2.

PCMark05 did really well :thumbsup: Teaser:

Been playing p55 for a while today as im out of ln2 and have made some headroom in the Ram department! 2:8 and 2:10 specifically.

Its all in the sub timings. Setting all timings below command rate to 12 and a couple others loosened up a bit (see cpu tweaker screen)



Primary timings are read incorrectly for some reason though, 8 8 8 24 88 set in bios. These settings are superpi 1m stable so far

hope this is helpful as I was really frustrated before as well.

Thanks for sharing that Splave I'm pretty sure I tried it all even settings those to 15-15-15-15-15 but I will give it another go with the cascade and low multi see if I can break that 219blck barrier with 2:8!

will take some bios photos tonight and post them up :)

What bios for p55 classified?
 

Splave, Honda, Duke etc what bios are you guys benching with? I stopped on BIOS A58 I think. Just checked eVga website and they climbed all the way up to A70! :shock:

i think i'm still using the old bios(a51)..lol i'll try the new one later maybe i'll be able to do 2:10 :D
