Problems with Sentential's method of burning in (cant get the vcore any lower)


Ok, so I'm at 1.187 vcore and I ran CPU burn in overnight, but I still cant post at 1.175. Prime is fine, so I tried another 4 hours. no good. Any help?

CPU-Z and ASUSprobe both report 1.2 vcore solid (no fluctuations, like at 1.2 vcore in the BIOS, CPU-Z would fluctuate up to 1.214 and down to about 1.119 or something like that).

I'm getting kinda sick of having to do the whole clear RTC procedure...I've probably done it about 6 or 7 times in the past 12 or so hours.

Well, if he opens the box and its dead, then it would be his fault because the state of the cat is determined by the observer. Then we could be all ‘n00b, you collapsed the wavefunction now! - RoadWarrior, on Schrödinger’s Cat

Anyone?

I'm trying this: I upped the HTT to 203. I'll prime for a while, and if its not stable, I'll run CPU burn in. If it's OK, I'll up it a little more, then repeat until Prime gets errors. Then its an overnighter of CPU burn in.

[EDIT] That seemed to get it. prime quit after 14 min. CPU burn in is running! Hope this lowers my vcore [/EDIT]

run cpu burn overnight with it.. he says that it is a long process, but worth it in the end... keep pushing it, it will turn!

the numbers you give show a .3v lower core than stock, i would be mucho happy with that and start seeing what clocks/temps you can get with juice closer to stock....i believe in the "voodoo magic" that a burn in is....but i would think at such a undervolt you have hit your lowest wall but with that said it may be possible for you to oc it then over some time get it back down really low.....also if you don't already once you get er all steadied out take her to the folding team and crunch some bigpackets

After burning for a good 20 hours I was able to go from 13 hour prime fail at 1.7 to a 20 hour prime fail at 1.675. I am running a XP chip but still...

well this is wat happens to me... i got my 3000+ at 1.55v 250*10 = 2.5GHz and it runs prime for about 30 mins.. i run the test for 4 hours.. i got 1 hour and 30 mins.. then i ran it over night.. ran prime.. and in 2 hours my computer freezes

i tried the same process over night.. ran it for 10 hours this time.. then tried again.. and it froze!! ugh then i tried again.. same thing!

I was afraid someone was going to say that. I finished the burn at 203x11, so I'll put the HTT back to stock and lower the vcore a notch. If that doesn't work, I'll just start OCing it like it is. I've already got it up to 220x11 before, and I have a feeling it can go quite a bit higher, with the RAM sacrificeing speed for that (I have to run it at CPU/14)

Wish I could help ya more, but it really just takes a long ass time to do more than anything else. Just keep at it, it ususally takes me a week before i start seeing results.

i would say if you can get it that low at near stock speeds she ought to OC like a mofo because you have a way higher safe range of voltages to try so good luck

That would take a loooong time. Usually .05v is enough to gain almost 100mhz.

That didn't work. I'm at 220x11 now with 1.6125 on the vcore (1.648 from CPU-Z...that just a LITTLE off...). I'll drop it until Pime quits, then burn.

yea i had to up about .125v to get 230*10 stable with 1.6v hopefully after a week or so of folding i'll be easin off on it. i would really like to starve it back to 1.57v where it would boot and burn in but i really need this rig folding as much as possible

Wow, check this out: 220x11 at 1.325 BIOS, 1.344 CPU-Z. At 1.3125, Windows would reboot at the loading screen. Time to run some CPU burn in.
