Alright all sorry for no updates, iv looked all over the place for information on this Problem, and havent found anyone with issues like this, so im guessing i either have a bad board, or My memory is to blame. But from what iv read, it apears that the 790i does not support 2gb sticks? at...

9 9 9 24 1t isnt exactly high at ddr 1600 speeds, i mean im sure that Corsair or some other brand can do better timings than that at higher speeds but i wasnt and am still not about to buy a 300$ 2x2gb kit, and at this point i dont think it would matter, because it doesnt matter what speed i run...

when i said i was setting the memory i was refering to unlinked and physically setting the memory limit to 1333 or 1645 both of which i know do mem test at those speeds and timings.. kinda aggravating tho if i knew id get terrible memory bandwidth over 1600mhz cpufsb id have gone for a 780i and...

Alright i was working on this from about 5 in the afternoon to 1 this morning, i tryed almost everything i could think of, i even upgraded the bios from P06 to P07, and pretty much the memory scales upwards untill i pass beyond 1600mhz Qdr Fsb on the cpu. i can set the memory to 1645 and start...

its passed just about 20hours of prime and 13hours of memtest at those settings im just about to wrap up a huge amount of testing tomorrow i will scan all of handwritten notes and post them for you to look over iv tryed just about every setting from link sync to setting the memory to 1333 and...

another test of link sync 1600fsb 3600mhz cpu 1600mhz memory 1.38750vcpu 1.15vfsb 1.60v memory 1.35vspp 1.550vmcp Read 10515 write 8499 copy 8282 latency 58.1ns 1645fsb 3701mhz cpu 1645mhz memory same as above settings Read 8351 write 8700 copy 7493 latency 74.1ns any...

ok so i tryed what you said heres what happened 4000mhz cpu unlinked auto memory set to 1638 999242t (known stable) 1.38750v cpu 1.10vfsb 1.45vspp 1.600vmcp 1.600v memory read 8777 write 9420 copy 7782 latency 72.7ns 4100mhz cpu unlinked auto memory set to 1638 999242t...

Ok so Anything other than Linked and sync'd gives me the same kinds of memory bandwidth tryed a 5:4 divider and it works the same as unlinked 1911 / 1638 so i guess im stuck with that shoddy bandwidth. cause im totaly not dishing out 300$+ a kit for ddr3 2000 since anything over 1600mhz isnt...

ok so i linked and sync'd 1600mhz for 3600mhz cpu and 1600mhz memory 9 9 9 24 2t auto for the rest read : 10611mb/s write : 8490mb/s copy : 8281mb/s latency : 56.9 ns ill be back in a few minutes going to try a divider and see if i still loose a huge amount of bandwidth. id...

So another test 4300mhz cpu (all Voltages remain the same in both tests) 4300cpu 1636memory 9 9 9 24 2t auto timings the other half 5 41 12 19 26 7.7us read : 7713mb/s Write : 10038mb/s copy : 7157mb/s latency: 83.3ns 4300cpu 1338memory 9 9 9 24 2t Auto timings the other half...

alright so the memory timings are 9 9 9 24 1t 5 40 12 18 25 7.7us so i guess im gunna mess around with the later half of the timings and see if slacking them off a bit makes a diffrence in bandwidth, as it might be "choking" the bandwidth meaning theyre set to low for 9 9 9 24 1t @ 1636mhz...

Alright guy, i ended up scraping 4.4ghz not worth pumping that much Cpu voltage. was taking upwards up 1.43v set in bios to get mildly close to stable at 4400mhz where as i'm setting 1.38750v in bios to run at 4300 basicly im 100% stable at 4300 478x9 @ 1.38750v ill post up my Notes...

its beyond doubtful that this cpu will do over 4400 - 4500mhz max im limiting my self to a max of 1.43v set via bios. further more im not quite sure about your board but auto on these 790's means if you increase the bus speeds and what not it will increase voltages aswell on its own you might...

new update im currently working on 4300mhz 478x9 Cpu volts = 1.38125v (bios setting) 1.3200v durring prime (via everest) FSB Voltage= 1.15v I had prime instability with the spp and mcp volts at 1.30v and 1.50v (Failing prime after 16m resulting in a BSOD) SSP voltage= 1.350 MCP...

i know this isnt Directly in reference to the I7 or motherboards your speaking of, but I ran into the same thing with the 790i Firstly the memory i picked ddr1333 2x2gb kit from Gskill isnt supported on the 790i at all by them secondly they also state that 2x2gb may work at increased...
