Darkje,
I read this article abbreviated the day before yesterday in an online technical paper, where even then it was stated as a fact that eTVB is the cause of the freezes according to Intel, then the next day Intel issued a correction that it is only a possible cause, saying that the voltage runs out if the eTVB is switched on. That said, Intel's recommendation based on the chart in the article is to have eTVB enabled, as far as I can see, despite current BIOSes handling it poorly. WTF? :D |

Yeah it seems they have a hard time making up their mind about what exactly are the proper settings. You really can't blame asrock or any other oem besides intel for setting up for the best possible performance, as it was a long standing tradition across all brands to be quite liberal on voltage, amps and multiplier settings. Only when problems surfaced they started coming back on that, first blaming motherboard vendors for the issue they themselves created by pushing their tech to the edge without much (or any) headroom, while still selling it as 'K' versions we all expected to be reasonably overclock-able. |

That's exactly how I see it. But the motherboard manufacturers could have given the customers "security" by offering TURBO, OC, Extrem... any other settings as a base with an Intel, AMD "stupid sure" setting, which I don't think has been adjusted exactly to this day into the BIOS. The same is true for memory, with AsRock Optimized and other timings, in addition to the XMP profile, which also approach the timings guaranteed by the memory manufacturer by 1-2 points if this option is turned on. If you don't like rummaging through the BIOS, either because you don't understand it, or because you think that when you build a machine, all the components will be coordinated and run on their factory settings and not on settings "optimized" by the motherboard manufacturer, this is unpleasant. Because you don't know where to turn, you can look for the fault..... :(
My problem seems to be temporarily solved, the freezes stopped when I replaced the memory pair that generated the Fantom XMP profile mentioned above with the same memory pair taken from the second PC, but which did not produce an error. I am now running the rounds with the dealer, who will admit the memory error after testing it. And this is also produced by the memory in His test machine. In vain, I sent him a video of the error phenomenon with the bad memories, and then of the flawlessly working machine I installed. If the returned memory in His PC if it doesn't produce the error, then I have a couple of expensive unusable memories in my possession, which can only be solved by the manufacturer's RMA, or not at all... |
