Epic RAM is epic ,can't wait to test this kit on my new Z77/Ivy

What are your temps at that OC? I see you have liquid cooling on the CPU, i5-2500K? Image is hard to read. 5.3xxGHz?

Super PI is not that demanding ,if i remember correctly (can't get the screen shot since i sold my SB rig and i'm on the back up right now ) it was around 60's...here is older submition i found


P.S. got my new toy yesterday

That's it make us jealous! Let us know how it goes, I'm looking at Z77s and not sure what I want to go with yet GB or Asus

Gigabyte Z77+G.skill16Gb @DDR3 3060

EDIT; UD5H and M5G look like front runners right now

Nice board I hope. I have just ordered a ASUS P8Z68-V and an I5 2550K. I'm gonna let people like you and Tman take the risks before I jump into Z77 or other 7 series chips.

Yeah SuperPi isn't stressful but gives an idea of overall performance and reflects changes you make. Yours looks quite fast. My current system, Athlon 64X2 4800+ will do a million digits in about 4 min. Oldie.

The Blue Ares or Ripjaws X, say 32GB would look awful good on that mobo

[coolhandluke41]

I was going to review two sets of PI series RAM on new Z77 UD5H platform but due to lack of compatibility (BIOSes are tuned for Hynix and Samsung as of right now and hopefully we will get new BIOSes tuned for PCS based RAM ) on this mobo i will just share a quick look of only one set ( F3-18400CL8D-4GBPIS ) this is older RAM but ..epic RAM is what it is (GSkill rocks )

F3-17600CL7D-4GBPIS (won't even post @ rated setting,the best i could get was 9-12-9@2400 )
F3-18400CL8D-4GBPIS (this RAM somehow is very capable on this mobo..go figure )

I was right, saw your name on the boards a while back and figured if Cool's here, he's up to something hot! Looking good...I picked up a 3570K and Z77 just to play and glad I kept the cost down, the 3570K doesn't OC well at all, 4.6 was pushing it and still occasional BSOD, will continue to play but leave it at 4.4 for work and keep running with the P67/2500K as my primary.

[coolhandluke41]

Good to hear you got yourself a new toy to play around buddy ,yeah this new chips require you to have decent h20 set up and pretty much is a long shot to find a keeper ,most retail Ivy's have weak IMC and/or high leakage as for OC capability 3770K will give you better chance (binned),the one i have will give me 4.5 HT on (1.2v) and 4.7 HT off (1.23v) for 24/7 - Offset Mode will keep things cool

[Tradesman]

Since the Z77 chipset handles DRAM better and my P67 was limited to about 2200 w/ DRAM, I think when I get a day or so to play, I'm going to flop the 3570K with the 2500K and try the 2500K in the Z77, the P67 is going to secondary anyway and can think I can run the 3570K @ 4.4, so it should still be a decent rig.

[coolhandluke41]

IMC on SB is different ..you won't be able to fly past 2133 ,you need Z77+Ivy to get the advantage of high frequency
P.S. if you need some help OCing your Ivy just PM me ,don't know why you limited to only 4.4 and you BSOD @4.6 ,good luck

Was over 2200 with the P67, had a 2600K in Z77 a few weeks ago and got them to 2400, started getting a bit warm, but it'll be something to play with, any hints would be appreciated, but think I just need some time to play, been busy getting folks converted from Office Live Small Business to the new Office 365, what a mess, MS wasn't ready, Melbourne IT ('new' Domain provider) has been running about two weeks behind on support requests.....has been one of the worst changes I've ever run across....Folks having to completely rebuild their websites (MS had advertised it would simply be cut and paste from the old to the new, which of course is a joke)....their drop dead date for everybody to transition over was 30 April......and it's still on-going, their community page is still gathering like 1,000 new post a day

Have got the Z77/3570K stable at 4.6 using .020 offset vCore, and have the 32GB/2133/CL9 Ripjaws X stable at 2200, pretty well booked up for the next few days, but am going to try and play more over the weekend
