i'm in agreement for sure!

Well I tried CPU VTT all the way up to 300+ and Vcore all the way to 1.65v. I did start to notice that on CPU test 1 lasted a bit longer than before but it still got stuck. Anyone got any more suggestions ?  I think I need more Vcore but I really do not think it would be safe to keep pushing higher.

Thanks

EVGA VDroop Control ( WITH VDroop )    Without
CPU VTT Voltage ( +200mv )    try up to 300 if that doesn't work try 8-8-8-22

PCIE Frequency (Mhz) ( 105 )   108-110 this helps with card OC
MCH Strap ( Auto )   I use 1600 to help OC.

That's what I'd try with your rig if it were in my hands. Make sure your using cold mode 1 or 2 in bios.
Great job so far!!! Remember if your craving more Hwbot points there's also 3D2001,03,05 and 3D2006 Go Team!

Ok I need some help as my head feels like its going to blow up. I am having a very strange  problem. I am trying to get 191 blck stable and I almost have it sometimes it will pass the cpu test 1 and cpu test 2 sometimes it won't and get stucks at the end of cpu test 1. I am at vcore 1.59xx with VTT  250. So I am like yea it just need a bit more vcore go I set it at 1.60v try again and it won't even go passed the middle of cpu test 1 it  get stuck in the start of the test. Then I try higher vtt 275 with vcore 1.59xx and same results gets stuck right in the start of cpu test 1. I have tryed all types of combinations of vcore and vtt but notthing will work. the best progress I see it works at and sometimes passed both cpu test is with 1.59xx vcore and vtt 250. I am going nuts trying to find out what is wrong and how to get this working I know I am close plz help.

@-60c my gpu went nowhere.  locked itself in at 1000/1125 no matter what the temps.  We need one of two things....more voltage, or a lucky card....I'll take either, lol!

Sounds like you could be hitting cold slow bug with your 580? I think they've made bios to help with that, just not sure where to get them...

Hay DENTNU.........nice clocks mate....Q and John know there stuff ......so well done in tacking there advice to many time you see someone ask....but not listen.....
 
Just a thought to add to the mix....try losening your mem timings ........Ive marked in red above ........all this will do is aliminate that as a possible cause 
 
also try pushing the PCIe frq up to 108-110 
 
Cheers happy benching

well I am going to call it quits for today as I have been going at this for the past 13 hours my brain is fryed. I am still having probelms getting 191 blck stable to pass vantage cpu test read my last post to get more info on my problem hopefully when I wake up in 10 hours there will be some suggestions.  Thanks to everyone for all your help so far I am really greatful for all the input and suggestions.
 
@threedhero
 
I  have been trying the setting you suggested but have to do some more testing to see if they are helping me as right now my brain is to fryed to tell the differnce lol 
 
@sniper  
will raise my ram timing to see what happens 
 
Thanks I really do appreciate the help everyone. 
 
well good night everyone its been a crazy day hopefully I can get to my goal of hitting 4.8Ghz or more tomarrow 

Ha ha Face palm..............just read theedhero's suggetions above ......dam should realy read all messages
 
Sorry about that thread I supose great minds think alike

I have a really humble rig.  It is in a mid tower case and doesn't usually compare very well to other enthusiasts who have similar hardware who have a fully decked out system with a real full liquid cooling system.

But to my surprise, look what I just noticed:

I have the fastest CPU-Z speed of any liquid cooled 965 on HwBot (and that is with just a H70).  There is one guy though who has a faster speed using "chilled air".

 
Humm...funny how we always compare ourselves to the very top guys, and feel very small in doing so.....  But when we compare apples to apples....stand tall my friend!

I was about to let the nitrogen gas out of my tank, and liquid shot out, lol!  Looks like I had about 5L left over from Tuesday, so I benched a few 2d tests tonight.  ( I hate 2d)  But added a few boints anyway.
 

 

 
 
 
 

Nice Q! I bet that was a pleasant surprise.
