In the screen above I would take a closer look at lowering many of your voltages. more is not always better.
If your memory is rated at 2133 with 1.5V, running them at 1.75V isn't going to help for speeds up to their rating.
I have not played with 2011 yet (I'll be getting my first set next week), but I would venture a guess you don't need that much VTT, 2nd VTT, or VCCSA for the speeds you're trying to reach.
If you've thoroughly tested with lower voltages, trust your testing over my advice, but if you set these settings whithout full testing, I'd take a step back.
UPDATE: Reset everything to default/auto except those listed in my post. Yep...took a step back. Agreed...will set vddr to 1.65v (the memory's rated voltage)
A few settings catch my eye in the screenshot above as well.
The "CPU Load-Line Calibration" should be set more conservatively (medium would be fine).
The "CPU Voltage Frequency" should be set to 400MHz or so...
The "CPU Power Duty Control" should be set to the other option ("extreme" IIRC).
The "CPU VCORE Boot Up Voltage" should match the CPU Vcore setting on the other page.
...same thing for the "CPU VCCSA Boot Up Voltage".
The VCCSA Current Capability should be increased (max is fine as long as you lower the VCCSA voltage as I previously mentioned).
UPDATE: CPU LLC seems to be giving best results at 'High' but will do some runs at Medium to check it out. Will go with 400 for CPU PDC...haven't tried that. Will also set CPU VCORE BUV to same setting as other page, CPU VCCSA is set to Auto so not sure what, if anything, to change on CPU VCCSA BUV? Will also try setting VCCSA CC to max.
In the screen above, everything should change when you chage the "CPU Power Duty Control" from the last screen. Now on this screen you should be able to input a numerical value for the power limit, feel free to max it out.
Those are the only things that catch my eye right off the bat. I'll be getting a RIVF next week, so I'll be able to get some more hands on with it and maybe I'll be even more helpful at that point. Anyhow, good luck and keep us posted
UPDATE: Long Duration PL, Long Duration M and Short Duration PL are all set to max numeric limit. Will see if any other changes impact these values and, if so, set them to max.
Thanks so much MIAHALLAN! Will keep trying tonight.
UPDATE: O/S crapped out last night. Going to load BenchZowner's stripped Win7x64 tonight
