Are you sure you'r not [H]ard?
Oh I'm getting hard with this, I'll tell you that much!
Yeah, newer kernels report base of 1800 w/OC ROM regardless of used chips (a bit ofWell I'm using 11.04 and I hope this is returning the nb speed, 6176 at 200 this says 1800mhz, all the way up to 261 it reported 2349mhz (multiples of 9x ref clock) I'm still just playing around, had a no boot at 262.... Seems my cheap cl7 1066 that did 1333 on stock bios only did 1066 at 200 and then down clocked to 800 for anything above that. Went back to my gskill eco's and they do 1333 at 200 and 1066 everything above that.
$ echo '1800*261/200' | bc -l
2349.00000000000000000000
Reporting: Posted at 245. Folding away right now, TPF is 13:55 on 6903! No ht retries so far
Very nice What CPUs and ram are you using?
The fact they booted that high is pretty impressive. Are these SE flavor?
What is your DIMM brand and exact model? Have you done SPD dumps of it, if so,
I would be very interested in adding them to my collection... (both: the el-cheapos
and G.Skills)
Yes, per earlier post, 262 is on the list of frequencies to avoid. This will be fixed
in the next rev.
I'm not sure if RAM plays any role in "what BCLK values work" but I'm running these Crucial sticks (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148488) successfully so far. They're 1600 8-8-8, but have a 1333 7-7-7 XMP profile too. They're low profile and that's why I got them over the GSkills (I needed something to slide under my Noctua 92mm's).
That's unusual; haven't seen that in the pastOK, Houston, we have a problem. The computer just powered-off mid-WU. I took it as a message that vcore is not sufficient at this CPU freq., so I powered on (successfully posted, phew ), and supplied 1.00 vcore. Let's see how it goes
My board comes tomorrow, do I need to flash to the latest bios before I start?

Not so certain it's related to supply voltage issue, more like overcurrent protection kicked in
somewhere (which would be odd as well).
12 extra cores will do that....
16 will do it even better...

If theGryphon's results are any indication, the 6166HEs may be the best budget chips out there.
Update: 247 has been folding for more than 12 hours now, with 1.00 vcore. Zero ht retries. Avg TPF on 6903 is 13:55 (not to compare to previous numbers), temps 45-49C.
I'll try 250 tonight
Wow. Seems like everybody else is in the 220 range. Wonder what the difference is?I've had a couple crapped out WU's at 210 on my 6176's, going down to 205, if theres any more problems at 205 I may go back to stock bios, at least I was stable at stock while undervolted.

Probably best to make sure you have everything running correctly before you switch to the OC BIOS. Just my $0.02.
Awesome. What kind of watts are you pulling with OC of 247?
Thanks for the info.Cant be the undervolt, those were never permanent, I applied them after every reboot with the old TPC-Mod
Crash is just a lockup, completly unresponsive.
Temps up to about 41 max, idle is around 26
Noctua 120's
I'll try the disabled xmp next WU/crash.
Power draw reported by UPS is 615W. PSU is a 760W Silver, efficiency in this range should be around 87% at best.
That didn't answer my question. After I do a shake down, do I need to update the BIOS or use what the board has?

Hi.
How is it possible to run ht-retries continuously ?
With one test every minute for example ?
Thanking you in advance.
watch -n 60 ./ht-retries.sh
For those of us running Windows (not F@H boxes), can I use a live cd or dual boot debian, etc etc, and apply the custom bios and overlock --- then return to Windows and maintain the overclock?
Any Linux LiveCD will work fine for applying the overclock - no need for a true dual boot. Once applied, you can boot into Windows and keep the overclock - it persists across boots and is OS-agnostic once applied. Any time you want to change the overclock, just boot to the LiveCD again.
