TheWizzard Posted November 17, 2006 Posted November 17, 2006 I had my system running at 320FSB on a 180 divider. It's running stable on this bios. But now I thightend up the timings and backed off the FSB to 300 (still on a 180divider for now, mem is running on 284mhz) on a 9x multi. Memtimings are 2.5-3-3-6-7-14-2-2-2-2-DS7-DDS2-16 idle clock cycles-7x max bypass-16x r/w bypass-32byte gran. disable. I know this is not in the right order but those are the timings memtest test 5 is now testing on. It's testing a long test of 12 hours. to check stability on the long term. Till now, 500 runs and still no errors. I will state those exact timings later on and than you can give me, if you want, advice on how to improve things and or tighten up things a bit more. And as promised, here they are: Dram Configuration: Dram freq. 180=ram/fsb : 09/10 CPC enable tcl 2.5 trcd 3 tras 6 trp 3 trc 7 trfc 14 trrd 2 twr 2 twtr 2 trwt 2 tref 3684 odd divisor correct disable dram bank interleave enabled dqs skew control auto dqs skew value 0 dram drive strength level 7 dram data drive strength level 2 (reduce 30%) max async latency 8ns dram response time normal read preamble 6ns idle cycle limit 16 clocks dynamic counter enabled r/w queue bypass 16x bypass max 7x 32 byte granularity disabled fsb freq 300mhz ldt/fsb freq ratio x3 ldt bus transfer width 1616 cpu/fsb freq ratio x9 (max for opteron 165) pci-e freq 100mhz cpu vid startup control startup cpu vid control 1,550v cpu vid special control auto ldt volt 1,20v chipset volt 1,52v dram volt 2,9v (could probably a bit less, not tested yet) pci-e config 8-4-nc-8 (sli setup) Okay. Till so far i've tested the mem with those settings in memtest test5 for 15 hours long without any errors. So that means that the mem is stable, i guess. The cpu is not tested yet at this speed. Do you guys think there are things i can improve? Any suggestions are welcome. I'm currently using the merlin 04/11/06 bios (latest merlin bios).

UberMario Posted November 17, 2006 Posted November 17, 2006 Try with 1/1 divider, you will win many perfs with it. My tccd can take 315 @ 2.5-3-3-8, and they're 3 years old !!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pink Posted November 18, 2006 Posted November 18, 2006 my timing at 294 : I think I can up more...... Pink. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
douirc Posted November 18, 2006 Posted November 18, 2006 Yo Merlin, Why is it, if I flash the 04-11-2006 bios, that my sata1 and 2 connections are not working anymore? Only sata 3 and 4 are working. I use your bios at my DFI NF4 UT SLI DR Expert. Cheers. Alex not sure if someone helped you fix this, but you have to turn them on. under the section where you overclock there are settings for sata 1/2 and sata 3/4. #1, make sure they're both turned on and #2, make sure you turn off RAID (both raid, nvraid and sil raid). i had the same problem. i first turned on both sata and still it wouldn't work, then i turned off raid and the drives reappeared.

TheWizzard Posted November 18, 2006 Posted November 18, 2006 Hey. Yes i already fixed it. But thanks for asking man. What happened was that merlin enabled sata raid on sata1 and sata2. I don't use sata raid so that's why i couldn't find my drive back Setting sata raid to disabled did the job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
