Hello all,
ive recently purchased this board (well the lt model), and after long hours of themaltake northbridge cooler fitting, i got the computer running fine.ive just got a couple of question to Clunk ( who seems to be doing a great job, and doing on of the best reviews and coverage of this board).
now the problem i have is that whatever i try i cant change
cpu vid special ad in the genie menu, well actualy i can change it but once the system reboots it always sets it to auto. ive tried overclocked, non overclocked nothing in the wolrd would change that setting to anything but auto.
the other is the confusing part of gtlref which i think i get, but since its my first
dfi board ill ask. before ive always set it to 67% for the
cpu and
nb.
when i got all running i saw the default options in the genie menu were 3 of them were around 110, which i thought was the percentage to right away i dropped 3 of them at 70, and after reading here i understood that in
dfi its different and those values are not %.
anyways i have my system running most of the time overclocked at 3.6ghz (see specs below) and dont have any issues for now, even at 4ghz the low
gtl ref seems to be doing the job just fine. my question is: is there any damage that cant be done in running a lower gtlref than 67%? can i drop it even more?
My system consists of:
Dfi X48 lt t3rs @ 400fsb
qx6850 @ 3600mhz
2x2gb 1600mhz corsair xms3 @ 1.65 @ 8-8-8-24
watercooled
cpu and zalman heatsink on
nb
bfg 9800gtx+ oc
and since i cant
post screenshots of my voltage setting here they are:
cpu vid 1.325 ( for some reason it shows 1.37)
nb 1.25
dram 1.658
gtl ref
cpu 0/1 70
cpu 2/3 70
nb 65
ive read much and maybe my answers are somewhere within these pages, but i couldnt find them.
thank you for your replies
