So the 970 is maxing out stable @ 4.1 then? at what voltage i got my 965 up to 4.3 at 1.5v that was the max i was gonna go for voltage and that was booting into windows anyhigher and it wouldnt boot. On another note why do you have your memory running ganged and not unganged?


If I even upped the voltage beyond whatever it is set at now (below the "red zone"), even at 4.1GHz Windows went kablooey. I popped it down to 4GHz since I don't really see the need of running on the ragged edge 24/7.

I thought ganged mode was better than unganged mode. I saw 128bit and went ooh, aah. I'll try turning it off and see if SiSoft shows an increase in speed. Doesn't really matter, as I bought the memory to have a lot of it, not to squeeze out every last drop of speed. I'm getting in the mid 9GB/s with SiSoft now.

Well apparently everything I knew was wrong, unganged mode brought the mem speeds in SiSoft to 11.4GB/s or so. Wether or not that's an overall good thing, dunno!

I'm so lazy now I got a program on my Jesusbox to Wake-on-Lan the gaming box when I would usually get up for work Monday to Friday. No more button pushing for me!

For some goofy reason how it's set up now the 1gb built in LAN won't run at 1gb/s, only 100mb/s. It worked before on the Intel card I had in the old mobo and it's forced to 1000mb/s on both computers.

I'm @ work so maybe i'll have to switch them around. Kind of dumb though, as 100mb/s is stupid slow.

Update - I switched the cables around and it's working at 1gb speed, woo.
