    Generally the CPU increase will require an increase in vCore (CPU voltage) - could you post up your BIOS settings for for voltages and DRAM timings and we'll take a look


    Pls offer comments on support I provide, HERE, in order to help me do a better job here:

      Apologies for delay - got caught up this end - on to it - back in 5

          Its at 100 BCLK at present - up it to 125?

            No, BCLK remains 100 .

            Thank you

              Don't offer help, then keep a User hanging for 2 days .....

              I well appreciate its private time and effort, and - genuinely - much qudos to you for your efforts.

              This one didn't light your fire for some reason .... so I'll move on and try elsewhere.

                Thought GSkill Tech had picked up, sorry, also I was looking for the Advanced/secondary timings

                  Ok .... fair enough .... we have obviously passed each other like ships in the night

                  The tech comment sowed confusion, as the ROG bios carries a pre-set for 4.25Ghz which sets BCLK to 125 - am running on that auto-preset now, as a temporary hike in clocks until I can get this done properly.

                  I assumed this was the values you were after:

                  CPU VCore Manual (showing as 1.144v) [or it was until I used the 4.25Ghz pre-set]
                  CPU VCore Man Volts Auto

                  Obviously not, so I will bootup and take a look inside the Vbios to see if I can find:

                  - "BIOS settings for voltages and DRAM timings" that are not shown in my post of 0507hrs

                  In regard to your other query
                  "also I was looking for the Advanced/secondary timings "
                  ... what timings are missing from the list I posted. Its possible I missed some values when going through the Bios screen(s) that are not defaults, but I couldn't see anything similar to:

                  "also I was looking for the Advanced/secondary timings "

                  I suspect this is a terminology problem, as I will rigidly go by the terms and values I see on the Bios screen - only - to prevent misunderstandings, and burning out the board/CPU - the latter at a combined value of £1,000 of my cold cash - and therefore that caution will never go away, despite Decades spent using various PCs. A cautious approach drilled into me - before I put my feet up - by my Tech Teams on various Deployments

                    Ok had a look, there is potential for confusion my end re terminology. At present the 4.25Ghz ROG preset is loaded. The only indication of VCore (not described in my first set above) is the Turbo Ratio which shows as 34 multiplier (but don't forget that at present I am on the 4.25Ghz ROG PreSet after the initial aborted attempt at this).

                    I do have the ROG Bios Application AI Suite II V2.01.01 loaded so can change most things on the fly. Maybe that will help, by referring to that if you have it, it makes it quick and simple.

                      The advanced DRAM timings will be listed by acronym i.e. tRC, tRFC, tWRD etc or like (and I believe on this mobo - CAS to CAS Delay, Active to Precharge, REF to ACT, Read to Precharge odds and ends like that, will normally be about a dozen or more and should be in the DRAM area somewhere, I can pull a manual this evening (prob about 6:30-7 PST) and find exactly how to get to it, prob won't be in the ROG software, will need to go into BIOS

                        Okie Doke - seen - I'm on it.

                        Back in a few, but sounds like you are at work .... best I wait until you are home, don't want to cause issues for you. If I find it now (or not), I'll post, and meet you online after 7pm PST

                        Regards

                          Don't worry about that, I have my own consultancy, so it's about always my time...mainly just if in the shop or out in the field (and even then I normally have a laptop. Will be digging for a manual here in about 20 minutes, have a rig to finish up and lay out some specs on a Haswell proposal

                            I have reset to what is shown in #33, but with CPU on 4.2Ghz. Couldn't find the items you spoke of in the bios..
