New 3402 Bios for Rampage V Extreme.

[sparcengine]

the last 2 bios you have raise the cache core voltage .

before the 3000 series bios i could run my ram @ 3000 100 strap with 1.3 volts on cache core 4.5 cpu core @ 4.5 off coarse
3301 bios i could do 4.3 cache core @ 1.256 , 3402 same volts i can only do 4.2 on the cache core
now i can do 2800 14 14 14 35 1T or 2666 13 13 13 35 IT both at 1.350 volts
3000 is only possible by raising the cpu strap to 125 but i can get 3000 with the 3202 at 100 strap and any one previous.......

Thanks for the tip. I didn't change anything except dialing in my RAM tighter than default. So far so good and no restarts. 7 days and counting but still cautious because I think I went over a week without one and then 2 in the same day so we'll see.


Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB DDR4 3000MHz C15

RAM Settings: XMP [XMP DDR4-3000 15-17-17-35-1.35V]

What voltage do the 3200mhz 14-14-14 kits run?
What is max safe-like voltage to try on samsung kit?
Is the cpu cache not becoming speed limiting bottleneck with such fast ram?

I just recently installed a second kit of the Gskill 32GB CL14-14-14-6-36 for 8 sticks 64Gb on my RVE-10 as I am setting up my RVE for some benching, with my 5960X at 4400, cache 4200, memory with XMP, vdim 1.4 just because, I never search for lowest voltages



I am sure they will work on the RVE with same settings, I do have a very robust CPU, I haven't lowered any timings from XMP, the ASUS T-Topology does give more bandwidth with all slots polulates
I am not recommending anyone to purchase this ram, use my settings as it may not produce the same results for everyone but in my opinion these memory kits just make life simple

I forgot to mention at 3000 my timings were 15 15 15 35 1T 1.35 volts with the
3202 bios and previous 3000 with those settings at 100 strap

my ram at stock is G skill ripjaws 4 @ 2666 15 15 15 IT 1.2 volts

i could even run on auto with a bios which i can not remember it would of been the 2000 bios
1.35 volts 3200 i think it was doing 17 17 17 36 2T but the latency was worse with the higher timings AIDA 64

GSkill kits run amazingly... Mine are 3600 CL15 (2 independent kits) working flawlessly at 3466 CL 14-14-14-34-1T, Realbench and HCI stable, RVE 3402 mod.

vmanuelgn, very nice AIDA score, yes these kits are great, I was using one 32GB 3200 kit and 2 16GB 3600 kits together without issue, and with BW-E they will clock 3400 and above

Thanks Menthol.

Your results are very nice too.

Finally I remained with my old RVE cos I did not find any advantages for me keeping the RV10 (which I had to RMA), since I wouldn't use the DAC and CPU and memory OC is almost equal to RVE. Even my CPU is cooler with this RVE...

This new bios has spoiled my 3400 profile, but allowed me to use 3466 which is as fast (except for the writes), and totally stable.

Also thanks Sylar76 from win-raid for modding the bios.

I think 4.2 ghz of cache clock is still bit slow and creates some bottleneck compared to spped of the ram.

Greetiung guys!

To much words about memory, and no any word about powerlosses and restarts on new 3402...

Does anybody of you, who had restart on 3101+, having them now - after upgrading to 3402 ?

[Techotic]

Does anyone know if they upgraded the RAID ROM in this version, or what version this BIOS has?
