In Reply to: RE: Jack Wong - guidance on H61 MB BIOS, please posted by rickmcinnis@dogwoodfabrics.com on January 08, 2012 at 01:40:56
Please see my BIOS settings.
My Kingston 1G DDR3 1333 can run at 1.1V, another older 512mb can only start at 1.3V.
Try to limit the Turbo values to 30.
It's a G440 CPU, so the BIOS was indicating ALL core.
I've not test the lowest voltage limit of this CPU, which should be around 0.8V. My i3-2120T running on an H67 mobo can run at 0.805V, but still haven't tested its lowest limit.
Quick Boot should be "Enabled"

I am using a KINGSTON 512mB memory and it will not go below 1.26.
Might have to try that same memory you are using. 1.1 volts - impressive!
Have you not tried Serge/STEPPES memory settings?
I am using them (thought there are a few differences so I have only implemented the ones with the same name).
What is interesting is with these settings the H55 board would not boot. One had to have a intermediate step. With the H61 board - boots right up.
I have been experimenting with how low the voltages can go.
I will report where I am. Cannot remember.
Glad you are back. We need you.
It's a KINGSTON 1GB 1333 Value Ram, better sounding than the HyperX I have got. Lowest is 1.08V when powered by NiMh batteries. 2D size will last more than 5 hours.
On H55M_UD2H, I could set my memory latency values slightly lower than that. It's because the default ram power circuit was by-passed.
The same memory setting will boot on H61 mobo because it has got a more responsive power supply than H55! The integrated Driver MOSFETs make provision for a low noise environment and speedy PS. This is a decent mobo, you won't go back.
I had previous to your post disabled the TURBO BOOST stuff.
Since you are using it I had to try it.
It took quite a few cycles to get close to the values you are using and I think this is causing some usage problems - not actual sonic problems even though I do get the occasional loud crackle which I cold live with and a few episodes of a sudden blue screen with a consequent squeal coming from the loudspeakers.
Please tell me what you think the advantages of this thing is.
It seems like a current limiter as opposed to a regulator which makes me think back to your original posting on the H61 boards where you noticed the occasional spike in current. Was this with or without the TURBO B engaged? One wonders if my problems are caused by the MB needing extra current but the demand is "blacked" by TURBO BOOST?
I am able to use even lower (not much) values for the memory that Serge's suggestions. And the board will boot every time.
I gave you the wrong voltage for memory - I am able to use 1.22 volta.
Can't go as low with the CPU voltages as you - if I go too low the board cannot load the JULI@ ASIO drivers - very strange - never had that problem with the H55 board - it either worked fine or died well before the cMP screen.
I use the 512mB memory since that was what cics recommended and he recommended it for the low power it required versus larger sizes. It is a KINGSTON VALUE RAM also. I should try the 1M and see what happens.
Thanks again for your help,
stopping any turbo boost.
I have the S2H and S2P-B3 mobo and a G440 processor. Haven't find the time for installation yet.
Your post would be useful to me, and thanks to Jack for the recommendation.
bought it in September and had no luck finding a good board to use it with.
When Jack Wong made his post I was glad that I could put the thing to use.
I like the combo very much.
I think my H55 board has been permanently replaced.
