bsod again

[mark2005]

i just rma'd my p67 ud3 nand gskill eco 1600 1.35v memory, because i was getting bsod stop 124 errors i ordered a p67ud4 b3 and some gskill ripjaw 1600 1.5v memory, everything was going great and all the sudden while playing bfbc2 i got the bsos stop 124 error, question is should i rma the 2600k or the thermaltake 850w ps ot both??

Re: bsod again

124 error means not enough qpi/vtt voltage,try one or two clicks more from what it is now and re test

Re: bsod again

it defaults to 1.05v, what should i set it to?

thx

Re: bsod again

slowly increase it. It all depends on cpu and ram.. bump it up 1 or 2 notches then test.

Re: bsod again

i bumped it to 1.10v , played bfbc2 for 25 minutes with no crash at no less than 120fps,,,,nice!!!! is it safe to say my hardware is probably ok? cpu around 31, gpu around 60

Re: bsod again

Your hardware is fine,you always have to tweak things,if it blue screens again try two clicks more qpi voltage but I think you'll be fine now

Re: bsod again

+1^^
Qpi/vtt for p67 is fine up to 1.2v some can go higher but 1.2 is alot for p67.

if is the same bsod then keep increasing...

If it is a different one then look at my sig there is a link for most bsod error codes and depending on which one it is there is the correction listed.

Edit- if you ever have a question about your settings. Please grab a template from my sig and fill it out with the current settings that you are using. We will have a better idea how we can help or what setting could be out.

Re: bsod again

would it also help to manually set my ram voltage? i know it defaults to 1.5v and thats what im running but you never know

[Acebmxer]

Re: bsod again

Yes it is always advised to manually set voltages do not let auto set them for you. Main Voltages to set manually are Vcore, qpi/vtt vdimm. There are some others but they are the main ones that should never be left on auto.

Re: bsod again

what would you recommend i set my vcore too? without oc'ing

thanks

Re: bsod again

BFBC2 ( and punkbuster ) have a problem with EasyTune6. Do not run ET6 at all when running BFBC2 and I think your BSODs will go away. This fixed it for me.

My system.
p67a-ud3-b3
i5-2500 @ 3.7ghz
gSkill DDR 1600 memory.

Re: bsod again

If running stock settings. You should be able to run voltages at stock also. Thats in a perfect world. You can try setting Vcore to normal and dvid to +0.0000. this will use the cpus default vcore and alow it to drop at idle. Test with a stress test program like LinX or Prime95 for stability. Its advise to find the lowest voltage while maintaining stability.
