Greetings! I'm a n00b when it comes to AMD & 4P rigs so I hope someone can answer a few questions. I've put together a 4P rig with a SM H8QGL-IF+, 4 6180SE's, and 32GB of Ballistix ddr3 1600 memory (1.5V 8-8-8-24). I've flashed the [H] Bios and have been testing overclock settings and stability for the last few weeks.
I'd been using a saved copy of a 8101 WU and trying to complete the unit at different settings. I found that a refclock of 225 was no problem but 230, and 228 results in a segmentation fault (although 228 made it 95% through the WU). I've now been running at 227 for a week and completed 10 regular SMP units and 4 8101 bigadv units. CPU temps are 40-44C and the system is drawing ~820 watts.
This morning, I noted that a new 8101 had aborted at 35% with a seg-fault and core status 8B (139). So am I still too close to the edge? Does anyone have any suggestions other than backing off? I don't see much mention of 6180SE's when building these rigs--was getting them a mistake?
Thanks!
