X99 Sabertooth And Adaptive Voltage

[Dicehunter]

So I changed out my Rampage V Extreme for the Sabertooth simply because I prefer the looks of it.

Now on my RVE I used adaptive voltage with 1.28v on my 5930K for my 4.60GHz overclock with a base clock of 100, Cache at 3000MHz and my memory at it's rated speed of 3000MHz.

I tried the same settings on the Sabertooth and for some odd reason it will not allow me to have anything higher than 2400MHz on the memory without it not being able to boot.

Now if I use manual voltage so it's set to 1.28v all the time with a base clock of 125 and a multi of 36 then it all works but then this puts my idle temps up by about 7'c which isn't something I want.

For some reason I cannot get 3000MHz on my memory with adaptive CPU voltage and I have no clue why.

Any input would be appreciated

I had the same problem with my former X99 Sabertooth. Memory would not go over 2400 MHz under any circumstance with a BLCK of 100. I managed to run them for a while at 3000 MHz at 125, but this tends to make the CPU run a lot hotter than really seems necessary to me. That was the only stable option I could manage, oddly enough even at 2800 @ 125 it failed.

You might need to go back to an old BIOS, not sure which version you're using though. I seem to recall v2101 was really good.

Are you on the latest BIOS?

Have a look at the VCCIO, SA and Cache volts

but this tends to make the CPU run a lot hotter than really seems necessary to me.

That will be you leaving key volts at auto

Negative on that one!
