Just a quick question to get a few more suggestions from the team:
Rig Specs are as follows:
MSI Z68A-GD55 (B3)
i7-2600k 4.5ghz @ 1.31v
8Gb G.Skill Sniper F3-12800CL9D-8GBSR
Corsair AX850
EVGA GTX465 (unlocked w/448 cuda's)
(Some type of cheap air cooler that does a decent job for now)
VelociRaptor 300Gb main drive
I started playing around with memory timings and speeds a little bit ago on my rig which went...less than ideal. Long story short I couldn't get the board to boot at anything other than 1600Mhz and either 9-9-9-24 or something close (I did run 8-9-8-24 successfully for a bit). CPU clocks have been played with as well from 4.5Ghz at 1.305v up to 5Ghz (just for a play and to join the 5Ghz club...that I may have just created in my head). I dropped it back down to 4.5Ghz @ 1.310v and returned all RAM settings to factory, then enabled the XMP profile. The system booted stable, passed MemTest (7 runs, overnight), runs Prime95 for 1.5hrs stable, passes IntelBurnTest on 'standard' and 'very high' settings, runs 3DMark11, OCCT, Heaven, and Cinebench all without BSOD or any issues. Even managed to keep the temps below 70c using my cheap air cooler and some NF-F12's (highest core did hit 71, but stayed around 64-67).
The really odd thing is this: I get a BSOD every single time within 20 minutes of starting to fold the SMP client using F@H v7. I cannot figure out what could be causing this or why the system would be all but rock stable for everything else (gaming included btw) but just seems to hate folding now. Before I messed with any memory settings and unlocked the GPU I was able to fold 24/7 without issues. I have left the system folding on the GPU alone for just over 6hrs and when I came back it was still folding away (by the way 17,000ppd on a GTX465 seems a bit crazy, anyone confirm that's high?) So what else could be causing me issues? I've uninstalled and reinstalled the v7 client, tried disabling the XMP profile and running all 'Auto' settings for memory, but just cannot find folding stability again. Help Redline!
P.S. I'm at work right now but any suggestions/questions please feel free, I'll check or verify anything as soon as I get home. Thanks everybody!
