    ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Hero newest BIOS (ver. 4004). How's it working for everyone using this mobo

    Wondering the same here for 3950X + C8H WiFi currently BIOS 3801, powered by latest Linux. What are the impacts and benefits of AGESA V2 PI 1.2.0.6b within BIOS 4004 ?

    B/c you don't have to reboot. Just set the multiplier from the desktop ;) CPU examples: * Usage: I'm changing clock as needed depending if I'm coding (idle) or building kernels (high) * Settings: I keep an eye on the Processor features. Turbo is for instance disabled when Processor is...

    I wonder if you go with the W3690-70 processors (those with unlocked ratios), you can modify multiplier values of register MSR_TURBO_RATIO_LIMIT and overclock cores without the help of the BIOS. Linux provides the msr.ko module to read/write such register.

    If you run Linux, I would suggest you to try CoreFreq to check your DDR geometry and latencies for X58 QPI. Stress features also included to reach the highest turbo ratio per Core Disable NMI Watchdog; insmod the Kernel driver with Experimental=1 Start daemon in one term and cli in another.

    Great ! Can't wait too see your results. Btw, in GitHub or in Live CD, the corefreq_online_update command will fetch the last stressing functions. Go to the Tools sub menu. Enjoy

    With my venerable X58 setup I have programmed a processor monitoring software which shows Turbo Cores frequency , IPC, Pkg & C-States, Temps, SNB Voltages.... in RT. For example cpuid capabilities, Uncore, QPI, DDR cas & geometry... CoreFreq is open source into the GitHub...

    Corsair H50 + LIAN LI PC-V351 question

    Hey ! added the H50 to the V351 --> http://ccy.free.fr/ Used 4 x holed plastic strips to desaxe its fan. Btw, old NF-P12 fan is installed beside it , and no issue closing the side door. Minus 10°C during OCCT load @ full 1600 rpm ( noisy ) ; Much lower temp during video encoding using...

    Corsair H50 + LIAN LI PC-V351 question

    The idea of the plate is good especially it won't cancel the case waranty I'm mainly using Linux. Stock clock Core i7 delivers 45000 mips , last best overclocking reached 52000 Win Seven score is 7.5 CPU 7.8 Memory I notice that you are using a SSD : I wonder how it can increase encoding For...

    Corsair H50 + LIAN LI PC-V351 question

    I also change for a Noctua 8 cm fan at back. It turns @ 1500 rpm but does help cooling down case Go for a 120 mm if U decide to mod Btw U should find in another V351 thread, same forum, some mods where PSU and HDD fan have been swapped, allowing 120 mm fan and better air dissipation. I not a...

    Corsair H50 + LIAN LI PC-V351 question

    Bravo ! Great mod, that's exactly what I want for my setup Will ask to her to offer me my first Dremel -;) Beside CPU , what about the general cooling of the case ? Does the H50 fan blowing hot air inside makes it worth for the Northbridge Southbridge GPU HDs ? CyrIng France

    Corsair H50 + LIAN LI PC-V351 question

    I have closely studied my V351B : I think the H50's fan might only fits in the center of the tray, locked only left or right. I'm afraid a second front fan won't fit beside it ? My i7 is so hot when oced ... can't wait to read from your instruction & photos ;)

    Corsair H50 CPU Cooler Preview.

    Do you think H50 will do better in my small Lian Li PC-V351 case ? Fyi : a/ only front 12cm fans can be replaced in my rig b/ with my Noctua C12P, i7 core temp goes from 51c up to 80s c/ IOH=70c , ICH=55c May you also share your IOH & ICH temps ?

    x58 heatsink compatability?

    So I tried another TIM : the Arctic Cooling MX-2, that I compared with the Noctua NT-H1 I don't find much differences between them, however MX-2 gets a bit lower when CPU idles Here are the results, using a 12'' OCCT test @ standard clock, speedstep & hyperthreading ON

    x58 heatsink compatability?

    My setup is the issue ! just add into a tiny case: a fanless GPU , a fanless MB + an i7 , you get a nuclear station -;) I cleanned & re-applied TIM : not better with the Noctua C12P ( may try again with MX-2 ) However I'm now testing out of the case, IOH & ICH temps are much better (62C &...

    x58 heatsink compatability?

    True, as described in my sig, the Noctua C12P HS stops me from using heighted DDR on the nearest slot Performance is still bad : with stock frequency, i7 during OCCT load Cores goes beyond 82C, NB 77C, SB 55C Will clean & re-apply TIM however I beleive best OC may be reach with WC in my rig...

    LIAN LI PC-V350 !!!

    Could we have a chance to slide the new H50 water cooling from Corsair into the front position of the PC-V35x ? When looking at H50 pictures, its heatsink seems larger the 12 cm fan EDIT: After removing all parts, I noticed that one of the 2 front fans can be slide at the middle of the tray...

    LIAN LI PC-V350 !!!

    Clearance is ok between HS & PSU However I found my previous 500W Silver power pulling a bit more air. I mean MODU's fan allways runs less than 500 rpm

    LIAN LI PC-V350 !!!

    Hi, How did you manage to run the C12P fan at 2500 RPM ? Mine is limited to 1300 ( NO ULNA ), sucking air from a Core i7-920 which is hot like hell (45C idle, 85C load !!!)

    Hi rEVjon, your box just look what I want First, I want to remove the HDD case from my PC-V351 : how did U manage ? ( there is no screew ! ) Then I would like to reverse the PSU thus my C12P CPU fan will suck air (as Noctua's specification) without air disrupted by the 120mm PSU fan. All of...

    LIAN LI PC-V350 !!!

    Had tried both : Push-Pull (current) : i7 temp = 50C , NB ~ 73C , SB=50C @ idle Pull-Pull : not better PSU fan sucks air faster than CPU fan; Pulling is the Noctua's specification. ( also NB gets better fresh air ) Solutions could be : 1- reverse a PSU with 12 cm fan on top in a Pull-Pull...

    Thanks, I'm back on my setup Antec Signature (or Quattro second choice) would be the great solution beside its dimension : 18 cm deep when standard PSU is 15 cm Silverstone : 400W might be too week when OCing an i7, although I reached 3,8 Ghz with my PowerSilver 500W PC Power & Cooling...
