Hi Folks
With a couple days left until vacation (and 2011 mobo not back from rma and still waiting for the beastly 4770k) decided to give a g550 a shot. Not a lot of boints there but so far it's doing pretty well on the 2D's (7 gold cups, 1 silver). All those were running at 26x107.9 with hyperx2000 ram (also tried the evo2's but the system refuses to post with those sticks). Unable to post at 2300 (tried 2300 pi's as well as 2400 tridentx, no go) so am at just over 2000MHz.
For some reason, spi is crushing/freezing my system. Am following the LBB. Tried boosting the cpu voltage a bit (to 1.5v). Tried reducing bclk all the way down to 107.2 (tried everything from 107.9 downward). Also tried loosening the ram timings (as far as 9-9-9-24) as well as increasing the ram voltage (to 1.8v). Also tried setting the priority to high instead of realtime but spi32 STILL locks up the system (freeze occurs anywhere from the start of the 1st pass to the start of the 5th pass). Bclk changes did nothing that I can see.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
