    Default My Haswell Setup

    I'm on 326.80. I did a full uninstall too with driver fusion in safe mode too.
    It also didn't give me a nvidia control panel either. It was as if they just didn't agree with my system.

    Mind you, since I upgraded its like half the PC world doesn't agree with my system lol.

    Nice mate,
    well in the BIOS of my Sabertooth I have settings to lock the PCI slots to a certain speed/spec eg 2.0 or 3.0. I have mine set to 3.0, and I also have a setting for the on-board Intel Graphics which I changed from auto to PCI-E. There was a setting for Intel HD Audio which I set to off.

    I would also make sure you are on the latest motherboard BIOS and you have the latest Intel Chipset Driver (Inf).
    Are you running a 120Hz monitor? There still seems to be problems with them.

    Have a look through the Official NVIDIA Thread for these drivers, there bound to be others with the same issues.

    Providing Feedback:
    Please feel free to leave feedback for any driver related issues specific to this driver. By providing your information here, you may also help others who may be experiencing the same issue you are. The more information we receive from you and others, the easier it will be for us to reproduce this issue in our labs and provide a fix through a future driver. Alternately, you may provide this same information through our NVIDIA Display Driver Feedback Form below:

    I know you have probably heard this a thousand times but I cant tell you how many options there are in my BIOS!! Honestly in every tab there are like 4/5 extra tabs, its crazy. I am actually trying to find a "walk through" or similar just to understand the basics!

    There wasn't much in that tab, so I took 9 so you could see what is there! Sorry pictures aren't the best, baby in one hand, phone in the other!

    Something I did find interesting (totally separate) is that on pic 1 it shows 3.50ghz but on picture 4 it shows 4.30ghz

    When it was first installed, Steve and Dave were here with me and we oc it to 4.3 then set it back to default after some BSOD from something else.

    CPUZ confirms:

    Looking at the 8th picture, I see Intel Graphics enabled, do you have both the Intel and NVIDIA showing in Device Manager?
    I had both on my 2600K and ASUS P8Z68 Deluxe for Graphics Switching, but I haven't on my ASUS Z87 Sabertooth.
    I would disable the Intel Graphics to see if that helps. I would also disable the audio on that tab too.

    Also in that picture I see a "Super IO Config" tab, what is in there?
    I think Spookiller has this motherboard so he may be more help.

    I'm at 4.2GHz and I only have a core voltage 1.198.

    EDIT: The 3.5GHz you see is the chips standard clock you can see further down on CPU-Z - Core Speed.

    Lol good point! Just disabled the two of them. I have asus drivers for my sound card and I never do graphics switching

    I haven't really looked at overclocking yet as I don't understand the BIOS enough. There are "one touch set ups" which create Auto OC profiles but I would rather understand them properly first. Allegedly they use too much VCore too. Like I know what VCore is!!

    There is a guy using the same mobo and chip here who explains things in further detail, I am off this week so will have a good read and see what I can decipher.

    I notice in screenshot 1 and 2 your RAM is only set at 1333MHz. Check in CPU-Z for your "DRAM Frequency" a DRAM Frequency of 666MHz is 1333MHz.
    I can see the CPU is at 4.3GHz but I'm not sure where it's getting that from.
    It will be nice to know if it's clocking your CPU and RAM.

    Once that has been stopped I would set a CPU Ratio of 42 and set the DRAM speed to 1600MHz and go from there.... Once you have had a read through the thread you mention.

    I'm going to break this convo off into it's own thread "Haswell Setup" or something. I'll PM you a link later once I have done it.

    It's not the overclock what I set since it's giving you a voltage of 1.36... That's pretty high. I think I set it for something like 1.25.

    I'd recommend just completely resetting the BIOS to optimized defaults and start from scratch.
    The Grid. A digital frontier. I tried to picture clusters of information as they moved through the computer.
    What did they look like? Ships? Motorcycles? Were the circuits like freeways?
    I kept dreaming of a world I thought I'd never see. And then, one day. I got in.

    Yeah and check out the first screenshot and the CPU Status and System Status down the sides,

    CPU Ratio 33
    Host Clock 125MHz
    DDR Frequency 2667.97MHz
    DRAM Voltage: 1.656

    and a

    CPU Temp of 63
    CPU Fan Speed 2600 RPM

    Seems high even for a Haswell. Even at a locked down 4.2GHz I'm at about 28 in the BIOS with my fans spinning at 1000RPM.

    Since Outcasst didn't set the OC I would reset the BIOS and go from there. Remembering to turn off the Intel GFX and on-board audio, and post back with another screenshot of the BIOS.
