I have problem with stable my cpu i7 980x 4.5Ghz. These are my settings in BIOS
 
All 3DMark go through just in games we freeze. These voltage okay or do I have to make changes?

Pictures in the game just stops but no BSOD and I have to reset the computer.

 This happens after 15min, but only in the game BBC2. In other games, everything is ok ( Dead Space2,...).  Any idea what could be wrong?

Tthis is bios of memory. Is this okay?


 

 

Start slowly to narrow your problem to single units.
 
do the following and you will find out what your problem is 1000%!
 
Download Prime 95 and run it to make sure your CPU is working and not the reason why your computer is freezing. Watch all the workers and make sure that none of them stop working due to a problem. If you can run Prime for like 20 minutes then you are fine on your CPU because 100% CPU utilization would weed out the CPU in a matter of minutes honestly. You are saying it happens in 15 minutes of gameplay so it will be very obvious because games dont utilize 100% of the 980X .. No chance .
 
If you do run into a worker Error on Prime 95 that means your CPU / voltages are at fault. You might want to raise your Vcore just a smudge because all Chips are different and need different voltages to obtain the same OVerclock so no one can say what is enough for another persons CPU so you will have to test it yourself and see. GO up by small increments nothing to drastic!
 
try the following and let me know what happens.
 
EVGA VDroop Control (Without Vdroop)
CPU VCore (1.43)                                                                                                
CPU VTT Voltage (+175)
CPU PLL VCore (1.425)
**IOH PLL VCore (1.425) 
DIMM Voltage (1.65)
DIMM DQ Vref (+0mV)
QPI PLL VCore (1.275)
IOH VCore (auto)
IOH/ICH I/O Voltage (auto)
**BR04 ( NF200) Voltage ( ) (only on E-759)
**VTT PWM Frequency (max KHz)
**CPU PWM Frequency (max KHz)
**CPU Impedance (auto)
**QPI Signal Compensation (auto)
ICH VCore (1.100)

 
 
My 980x does 4.6 ghz @ 1.42 volts with the voltage setting you see there which are almost similar to yours except for the QPI PLL VCORE
 
Use a Multiplier of 31 and runa BLCK of 146
 
try my voltages but 31 mult and 146 blck and let me know what happens. If it doesnt work Raise the VTT to 200.  If you do get  a stable boot and your game runs fine without crashing slowly Lower you CPU Vcore a few units at a time to find the lowest amount that it needs to work for you without blue screening or crashing and set it there !
 
keep us posted!

I tried with your settings but write this one BSOD 0x00000001E.  Any idea what could be wrong?

Could be anything, at these clocks using another persons settings will be futile. Each and every CPU are different as are system boards, Power Supplies, Video Cards. While all of these are built around standards, once you start overclocking those standards become stretched and strained sometimes beyond the limits of the devices. The error you are seeing possibly can be tied to your QPI PLL VCore. but without seeing your other settings that is only a guess.

Well I have a 980X with TRI SLI with 24 gig of mem and do 4.2 with 1.3 and 4.5 at 1.375 on air, while I dont have a classified board I make do with what I have. There is more to these chips then just VCore and in order to learn how to properly set up an overclock you must tweak most of the voltages. I still stand by my statement that using another systems setting at these clocks is futile and when there are problems the person doing the overclock using someone else's settings doesnt have a clue to what might be causing the problem.

Thats why i told you  =). Make sure your QPI is set to 4.8 and not 6.4 . I knew that was your problem and thats why i said it above =0
 
Use the voltages and template i gave you and make sure you QPI is 4.8 not 6.4 and you will be fine i bet you :P

Sent you a PM!

Hope i was able to help the other night lol. Did the stuff we went over help?
 
cause i am pretty sure it was the MCH strap, Ucore, QPI , and those other minor things :P.

 I got my 980X stable at 4514. On my LinX run I see that the GFlops are a good bit lower than yours. Does that have to do with ram speed?

 

  +1   ive been working on a 990 i just picked up, im up to 4.6 so far and im only running high 40 gflops
