|
 |
For some reason, my load vcore seems to be bottlenecked at 1.458v. Idle vcore goes as high as I set it in my BIOS. So my idle vcore is around 1.482v and as soon as I put the CPU to load, vcore drops to 1.458v
Ive disabled vdroop in my BIOS but the board keeps vdrooping on its own. What now?

I had that aswell with OCing, but with my multiplier.
Did you try a biosupdate or contact EVGA for it.
This fixed my problem.

BIOS is fully updated. I doubt its my power supply which is a corsair HX1050 since I also tried a spare HX1000. I have not tried contacting evga yet. Screw it Im just gonna replace the motherboard first with another one

Well this is my third E768 board. The first two had no vdroop issues whatsoever. Those boards had other issues but never anything relating to vcore. So it must be this specific board. I dont have it set to 1.48v, I was just seeing if raising the vcore would change the load vcore bottleneck but it didn't. Idle vcore follows BIOS pretty closely but the load is way wayyyyyy off. Also I treat this board well, its sitting under a full board waterblock (NB, SB and VRMs)
Ive had enough of EVGA. The features are fine, but voltage regulation is a piece of shit on the E768
My first one died completely during a LinX run (in extremely cold system temperature btw so it wasnt heat related), the second one had a melted 24-pin connector because of SLI. Apparently I needed to purchase something called a "power boost" to provide extra juice to the PCI-E lanes when using more than one GPU.... why didn't they just add this to the board is beyond me. The board is called "SLI3 FTW" and they dont add this???!
Im purchasing an ASUS board tommorow.

localized areas of heat, and instant death happens with components, like a flash and something is dead

So I finally have the ASUS board up and running. The load line calibration on this board is so sexy!! The vcore is so stable I almost came in my pants. The EVGA board's vdroop was a piece of shit, I hit a wall at 4.29Ghz. Anyways lets see what this bitch can do!
So basically the problem is now fixed. It was the shitty EVGA motherboard that was giving problems
