Tried it and cant post strong memory speeds and timings for me.
Want to run 4000 with C14 or 4000+ with C15 and doesnt work. Always shows up memory error.
Last Bios that works is 1101.
And nope its not a microcode problem, since I can swap them myself and tried the same, that I have
in the 1101 or also other MCs.
Have to change my statement. I was too fast.
Basically. Like other ppl mentioned here, the 3003 and 3006 are currently the best MCs for Overclocking.
Not specifically in terms of benchmark points, but definitely in frequency.
I tried several MCs and the only ones that can post with my memory settings are 3003 and 3006.
All other MCs will give a mem error. Thats also why I thought 1301 is bad, because I tried newer ones,
since I wasnt aware that those (3003 / 3006) MC are the best at that moment.
Basically. If you ask now which one is the best of them 2. Personally. 3006 gives a colder CPU, higher Score
and you can clock your CPU higher or go lower with the voltage.
To give you figures:
on 3003 my cpu did:
5GHz @ 1.27V - 59°C
4080MHz @ CL15-16-15-31 ~ 129GB/s / 47.0ns
on 3006 my cpu is able to
5GHz @ 1.27V - 53°C -> for temp comparison and voltage wise:
5GHz @ 1.24V
4133MHz @ CL15-16-15-31 ~131GB/s / 46.6ns
I hope I was able to help you all, in terms of which MC you should use.
Like I said. Older or newer ones, dont post for me at or over 4000MHz.
If you have a MoBo / CPU combo that is able to post with 4000MHz on older or newer
MCs you may looking forward into having 4200MHz with those MCs. Just guessing here.
Oh btw: wish you all a happy new year.
