B200 M3 memory stuck at 1333MHz in performance mode

Hello,
We have 2 B200 M3s in a new deployment running 2.0(3a). The B200s are configured with 64GB using 8GB DIMMs, using BANK 0 of each channel. We've deployed a BIOS policy specifying performance mode for LV DDR, and confirmed this setting took effect within the BIOS, yet the memory continues to run at 1333MHz. When looking at the server inventory, the DIMMs are reported as dual rank 8GB 1600MHz DIMMs. We've tried forcing the DIMMs to low-voltage mode and back to performance mode to no avail.
In other UCS environments, we've deployed these same blades with the same memory configuration and BIOS policy and had no issues getting the RAM to run full speed. We're not using any kind of power capping either.
Thoughts?

Hi Brad,
What CPU is being used?  3 of the supported CPU's for the B200-M3 do not support 1600 Mhz:

  • No Boot with Performance Mode FAST

    When I set Performance Mode other than SLOW (no matter if FAST or TURBO) my system won´t boot (all other settings default, D.O.C. DISABLED).
    This happened with Bios v1.9 and also happens with Bios v1.7 (re-installed hoping it might solve the problem)
    NO way activating MAT/PAT  
    Any help very appreciated  
    System:
    MSI 865PE Neo2-FIS2R (MS-6728)
    Intel P4 3.0 GHz FSB800 HT (default)
    Zalman CNPS 7000A-CU
    2x 512 MB Twinmos Winbond DDR400 CL 2.5
    MSI GF4Ti4200 (MS-8870)
    Samsung SP1614N 160GB 7200rpm 8MB
    Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS
    Pinnacle DC10+ v7 Videocard
    LG GSA-4040B
    LG DRD-8120B
    Tagan TG-380-U1 380W
    Windows XP HomeEdition SP-1

    This might be a long shot...but try the following settings if you want PAT/MAT:
    Bios 1.9 for 865pe
    FSB=201
    Vddr=2.70V, or higher if it doesn't work
    Memory freq= AUTO (If you set it to 400 mhz you won't get MAT)
    Performance Mode= TURBO (FAST increases AGP/PCI bus)
    Timings= depends on you ram, set it manually to whatever specifications you have (If it still doesn't work, try setting to SPD)
    If all of this doesn't work then set memory freq to 400Mhz and Performance mode Turbo, or Ultra Turbo and you WILL get higher performance even if you don't have PAT/MAT. Test this with Sandra and you will see that the memory bandwidth is almost as high as with PAT on.
    Recommended: Install ClockGen and set it so that it loads with windows. Use it to set the FSB to 200 and AGP/PCI 66/33 for added stability.
    Please post back to see if this works for you guys. Good luck!

  • Stuck at Optimizing System Performance after installing Security Patch

    24" iMac seems to be stuck at "Optimizing System Performance" after installing the latest Security Update. Software Update won't quit. Nervous to force the computer to shutdown during that process. It's working fine at the moment other than that the Software Update box won't go away.
    What do you think?

    Well kind of answered my own question. Tried to run Activity Monitor which only started halfway and then crashed. I remembered the whole computer is backed up to an external drive everyday so I figured if it won't start at least I can start up from the external drive.
    Forced the shutdown by holding the power button. Started up w/o a hiccup; ran Repair Permissions which checked out and the Verify the Disk with First Aid which also checked out fine.
    So I guess it's ok though I may unplug that external for a day or two.

  • Cursor issues, stuck on click and drag mode.

    My cursor is stuck on click and drag mode.I assumed issue was faulty track pad. Purchased a magic mouse, and initially it was fine then the same issues started occurring. Is this a virus? Ran disk repair and permissions repair , no change.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you boot, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, reboot as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • K8N Neo - High Performance Mode Killed System?

    I'm slightly frazzled at the moment, so forgive me for any mistakes. I installed the K8N Neo Platinum on Tuesday night, with a brand new Athlon64 3200+ with 1mb L2.
    Video Card: VisionTek Xtasy Geforce4 Ti4400
    Memory: 2x Kingston 512MB 400MHz DDR PC3200
    Power Supply: Antec True550
    +3.3V @ 32A
    +5V @ 40A
    +12V @ 24A
    I installed the various MSI applications tonight, including CoreCenter. Attempted to adjust the FSB with it, but with just a 2.5% increase, the temperature of the CPU was getting higher than I cared to see during stressful applications. So I set it back to default, and later on read up on the BIOS settings in the manual... I read the description of "High Performance Mode", and figured I would try setting it to Optimized.
    Seemed like a good idea, let the board I had read was great for overclocking do it's stuff automatically. So after I set it to optimized (Didn't change anything else), I hit F10 and let it reboot. It never did. When it rebooted, the power stayed on, Hard Drive light showed it was being accessed... Only problem was absolutely no video was being sent. Monitor was as black as black could be.
    Turned the power off, tried again and again. Same deal. Power comes on, HD shows it is being accessed constantly for about 20 seconds, then just stops. But no video is being output, which leads me to think the system is just dead in the water for the most part.
    During this state, the LED's on the back are as follows: Top two are red, bottom two are green. I saw in another thread someone was going on about there being an explanation for them, but I don't have it in my manual nor could I find an explanation of them.
    At this point I'm just shaking my head, because there is absolutely nothing to be done as far as I can tell. If anyone has any ideas as to a possible solution or at the very least, whether the MB just went nuts or something worse happened, I'd greatly appreciate it. I'm at a loss and afraid to even think what might be the problem.

    While the "high performance settings" can surely make the pc unstable, it should hardly ccause hardware-damage.
    Turn the computer off (to be safe, remove the power-cord)
    Clear cmos with the jumper (instructions can be found in your manual)
    Wait 30 seconds
    Put the jumper back to its original position.
    Power on the system, and see if it works ?
    EDIT: Info from manual:
    Quote
    Clear CMOS Jumper: JBAT1
    There is a CMOS RAM on board that has a power supply from external battery
    to keep the system configuration data. With the CMOS RAM, the system can automatically
    boot OS every time it is turned on. If you want to clear the system configuration,
    use the JBAT1 (Clear CMOS Jumper ) to clear data. Follow the instructions below to
    clear the data:
    MSI Reminds You...
    You can clear CMOS by shorting 2-3 pin while the system is off.
    Then return to 1-2 pin position. Avoid clearing the CMOS while the
    system is on; it will damage the mainboard.

    I DONT KNOW WHAT CAN I DO.I THINK THIS ULTRA TURBO MODE FOR ONLY BEST RAMS LIKE HYPERX.CAN ANYBODY HELP ME ABOUT THIS MATTER.
     THANKS & BST RGDS

    To hit then highest overclock with your componets, I believe you want to do the following:
    Leave your ram settings at their SPD (Default)
    Have DOT turned OFF.
    Set your RAM voltage to at least 2.7.
    Set your performance mode to either turbo or ultra turbo.
    Lock your PCI/AGP Buses at 33/66 (or 34/67)
    Thereafter, incrementally increase your FSB. Once the rig becomes unstable, back off  until it becomes stable again and leave your settings there.
    I suspect that either your RAM or your PSU will be the limiting factor.
    By the way—Riddick rules all.
    Edit: Mods-- I do not mean to be presumptuous, but shouldn't the filter work only on whole words, rather than internal fragments? I.e. R-i-d-d-i-c-k (without the hyphens) was displayed as Rid****. I know the filters are necessary, &c, but that's a proper noun for the love of god. Sorry, I have a pet peeve about such things.

  • Tried to upgrade my iPhone 4 to 5.1 and now it is  stuck in "plug into itunes mode" after trying to update to iOs 5.1 and receiving error (1).

    Tried to upgrade my iPhone 4 to 5.1 and now it is  stuck in "plug into itunes mode" but will not recover when I plug it in. It is coming up as "unkown error (1)". Is there anything I can do?
    Also, is there any way to recover pictures I have not yet backed up? They should be on iTunes, but do not show up when I plug the phone in or otherwise.
    Is there any hope in saving this phone or is my best bet contacting Verizon or Apple to overnight me a new one?

    From iPhoneWiki:
    Try changing the USB port (the back one of chassis is better) and restart computer.
    The installed version of iTunes may also be too old. Update iTunes.
    Also put your iPhone in DFU mode when doing the above and restore. It's a software error.

  • Real-time apply in Maximum Performance Mode Not Working

    We have configured physical standby database in maximum performance mode. It's working perfectly fine. Archive logs are being applied to the physical standby.
    We can open the DB in read-only mode, but real-time apply is not working. Physical standby database is lagging behind the primary db by an archive log. As soon as primary database generates an archive log, it's transported over to the standby and applied immediately by the media recovery process. But real-time redo is not working. Standby redo logs have been configured.

    Hi,
    In your case you are using ARC process for redo transfer as you have not specified any process in log_archive_dest_2 and default is arch.
    I will suggest you to use LGWR to transfer the redo to standby and also check the size of standby redo logs on standby is same to the size of online redo logs on primary

  • How to save your photos after upgrading to iOS 6 OTA and stuck in DFU or Recovery Mode

    Ive been working on this all day. I found somebody's JAR that is able to provide SSH acess into your phone even if you are stuck in recovery or dfu mode. I am running a macbook pro with win 64 bootcamp and couldnt get itunes 32 bit installed to work with the JAR so I restarted in MacOS rather than mucking around with getting itunes 32. I then clicked the JAR and mac asked to install a java runtime. After doing this, the JAR would run and eventually put my phone into a state where I could SSH into it. After that, I downloaded Cyberduck and copied /mnt1 and /mnt2 to my mac in case I needed anything off of these. I ran PhotoRec and it began to find tons of pictures, pdfs, and whatnor. Rather than wait for it to find the stuff I really wanted, I searched through /mnt2/mobile/media/dcim/ and got all my pics. Awesome. What a pain.
    That took all day to figure out. Ugh.

    Sorry, the link to the JAR is http://www.ifans.com/forums/threads/ssh-working-on-ios-6.377392/

  • IPhone stuck in connect to iTunes mode after restore

    I attempted to jailbreak my original iPhone with software 3.1.3 using Spirit. This process failed, and I decided to restore it. After the restore was installed, the phone rebooted, and attempted to access the iTunes Store. However, it cannot reach the store, and I get a window saying error -9813 occurred. My phone is stuck in the emergency call mode now, and any help would be much appreciated! I am running iTunes 8.2.1 on Mac OS X 10.5.4 (outdated, I know, though if I must upgrade iTunes/the OS itself in order to get my phone to work again, I will). Thanks
    Edit: also, I can log in to my iTunes account and browse the iTunes store itself without any problem. The issue is that I can't access the iPhone activation screen.
    Message was edited by: DP154

    Never mind, the problem seemed to resolve itself. I guess the issue here was on Apple's/AT&T's end and not mine, which I was concerned was the case. The phone successfully connected to the iPhone server, and then proceeded to copy data from a previous backup of mine.

  • IS THERE A 875p bios that will ALLOW PERFORMANCE MODE enabled in 5:4 setup

    if i run my pc3200 (400mhz) ram at 333mhz in the bios, performance mode doesnt work. no matter if it is on SLOW,TURBO,FAST,ULTRA, i get the  same perfomance marks in programs. cpuz might say its enabled...but it really not. my sandra scores stay the same. when running 1:1 my performance modes work perfectly. any bios version out there that will allow this?

    Isn't performance mode (PAT, MAT, HyperPath or whatever) tied to the 1:1 synchronous clock operation?
    Are we 100% certain that CPU-Z and Sandra are able to detect PAT/MAT/HyperPath mode properly?

  • My iphone5 is stuck on "plug into iTunes" mode

    my iPhone 5 is stuck on "plug into iTunes mode" and when i plug it in iTunes pops up with a message that says "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes." can i not restore it?

    Hello there, Brentsly9.
    If you've getting the "Connect to iTunes" screen, then the following Knowledge Base article offers up the best steps for resolving your issue:
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    Use recovery mode
    Recovery mode erases your device and restores it, which should resolve the issue. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you may be able to restore from your backup after recovery.
    Turn off your device. If you can't turn it off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time and wait a few seconds for it to turn off.
    Plug the device's USB cable into your computer only.
    Hold down the device's Home button as you connect the USB cable to it.
    When you see the Connect to iTunes screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 one more time.
    iTunes should open and display a message such as: "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes."
    Use iTunes to restore your device.
    If you don't see your device in iTunes, follow these steps for Mac or these for Windows.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • Ipad 2 stuck in connect to itunes mode

    My ipad 2 was updating to 5.1.1, is stuck in connect to itunes mode and cant be restarted nor switched off and itunes is not able to recognize my device.. it has been like this for the past hour!!! i even updated to the latest itunes to try to make my ipad 2 work... Can anyone help please??

    Firstly, make sure that your device is not hidden (left hand pane). If it just reads device then toggle between SHOW and HIDE.
    Secondly, try all the other ports on your computer, even a number of times.
    Thirdly, if you have another computer try plugging your device into it without taking any action, give it a moment, remove it and try it back in your other computer again.
    Failing all that, see here - http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538 for Windows and http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1591 for Macs
