Hi all, ok here it is. I,ve been to nearly every forum i can find asking for help overclocking my system and never get any replies apart from "you have a nice system why overclock?" In the overclocking sections too lol clueless.
OR, "why are you running RAM so high" even tho i say im benchmarking.
Anyway

ive been playing with my new builld for the last few days to gain knowledge and for benchmarking as it interests me alot. So far i have managed to get to 4.4ghz with only 2 changes in bios, voltage to 1.310v and loadline to extreme. I also managed to get my RAM to run at 1833mhz with no changed to vots or timings and got it to pass super pi 32MB in 7mins 48 secs.
I have now set ram to run @ 2133mhz can changed volts to 1.65 and timings to 9 10 9 24 but cannot get past super pi, i get a error message after 3 iterations... So can anyone help me get it stable just for benchmarking purposes only, this is like the 5th thread asking for help(other forums) and no one seems to reply so i would appreciate any help with this (votage, timings etc!)
BTW my RAM is the 4GB 2x2GB kit cl9

I normally run my system @4.4ghz ram @ 1600mhz for 24/7 use. I did have a profile saved when i bought my bundle from overclockers.com but lost it when i had to clear cmos and my tems then @4.6ghz was 29.c idol 61.c max full load using prime 95.

thanks for looking, look forward to hearing your opinions.

Hi there,
It's strange that you can even boot @2133 9-10-9 with Corsair Vengeance 1600 :p but it seems like you got some really nice sticks :thup:
All I can say is that you can try higher tRCD like 11 or something like 9-11-10-28 tRFC 110-140 and up to 1.7V. Also for some chips command rate 2T is helping ( on new platforms it's not big performance drop but you can check it yourself in spi32m ). Also try higher VCCIO up to ~1.15V.

Thanks ill try those settings and report back after. Best advice given to date lol.
Was the time of 7mins 48 secs 32MB Super Pi i managed with ram at 1866mhz and cpu @4.4ghz a good time?
