i have been doing alot benching lately and somehow when i try go over 3.3GHz it'll start ramdom BSODing.. i don't know what am i doing wrong...

and most BSOD is 0x000124 and some 07F i looked up and didn't really tell me much

my board is a 780i FTW

here is some pictures of my bios










(the only thing different from the pictures are the set voltage and fsb of the ram and chip)

and my setting for the voltage:
cpu voltage 1.5000
cpu fsb 1.5
memory 2.1
nforce SPP 1.5 it was @ 1.4
nforce mcp 1.65 was @ 1.525
ht nforce spp 1.4 was @ 1.25
with this setting i can go somewhere around 3.7ish

also when i set the cpu voltage to 1.500 in windows under cpu z is showing as 1.472ish

most the people on HWBot is are going somewhere around 4GHz...

Sounds like a fsb hole. see about skipping around it. I'd go up to 1475 for starters, then 1500 if it doesn't bring joy. My 780 had a huge hole in that area.....

what do you think this setting
cpu voltage 1.5000
cpu fsb 1.5
memory 2.1
nforce SPP 1.5
nforce mcp 1.65
ht nforce spp 1.4
CPU PULL IS 1.7

and can you please explain to me little bit more about the FSB HOLE?

Could be a hole for sure. Mine had problems from 360 - 401.

By chance, have you run a memtest?

If anything they're high. FSB holes were a phenomenon with nVidia chipsets from 570/590 up to the 790i. You can hit the dirt at 1600 fsb then be 100% stable at 1601. Crazy shat.

Those voltages may be ok.... I wouldn't crank the fsb that high just yet. I was talking 1475mhz... . guess I should have been more clear.

When on the 780, You WILL hit a few "holes" while climbing in fsb freq. where you will have unexplained crashes and no-posts. I still have my board, but haven't clocked her in a whiiiiiiile, so it's hard for me to remember where and how big each hole was. The one I hit in the area you are now was friggin huge though. There was well over a 50mhz (fsb) gap where nothing would happen. I have it written down somewhere....

Punx talked me through it, and eventually I came out the other side and was back in business until I hit the next hole.

You just gotta jump over the hole..... it's a lot easier than working through it.

edit: DOH! ^^^ took a while to post, was recapping my work mobo and typing at the same time.

Isn't it supposed to be set without vdroop so that you don't get the disparity between setting voltage at 1.5 in bios and getting 1.4 in windows?

Shouldn't you be disabling all the spread spectrums as well?

Well, at least one of us is paying attention to the settings....

[Kal-EL]

Also the bsod you are getting is a heavy hitter bsod. Either:
1- You are overheating badly under load (which doesnt appear so)
2- the system absolutely hates the dividers you are using or
3- your vcore is much too low (Try using "without vdroop" and walking the votlages up again slowly from your base)

U mean ur suppose to pay attention to the settings?!?!? Does red mean bad hee hee

[kikicoco1334]

thank you guys so much i am done with testing this week i monna play with it a little bit
i am going to try the thing you guys said and see what;s up then
turn off the vdrop and all the spread spectrums
so brb =)
