@Xdbeach
I have this MB, and the same mems (gskill 8800) and the same q9550. I can´t run OCCT stable @ 400FSB with Vcore=VID=1.250, PLL=1.5, NB=1.1, SB=1.1/1.5, and RAM 1:1/1.89v. All normal values. What are your values?
The high temps in NB are because bad mount sink. I've managed this tightening the screws sharply, especially the two just below the NB
Can anyone confirm that they can run Memtest86 for hours without errors on this board? If so, what memory are you using?
I can run memtest for 24hrs running Gskill Pc8800 Ram
but I cannot Do anything 3d Releated Games or Aero
Anyone with using 2x2GB with PL=7 @ fsb >= 450 ??
Specialy using a Quad.
Everest screens please ;)
ok guys solved the NB temp problem
temps still holding at 40C at the moment
brought it down estimate 10C

I have this board on order, and i will remove the heatsinks and apply new thermal paste but would
like to know if i should apply any shims or washers for better contact?
Thanks
hmmm damn tx-2 wasnt as good as5 onces it cured.. CPU
i got mine today.
how tight should i make the screws on the back of the board.
ive already tightnened them, and notice there is not too much give on the VR heatsinks now.
before, there was alot of play.
The screws are quite loose to start with, its kinda like the TRUE120 - real tight = better.
Havn't installed it yet, its 4am and had a demanding night at work.:yawn:
my final setting :)

Chri$ch, what is the PL value that you have there and can you post an Everest Memory Benchmark please ?
:up:
I just bought one of these myself - it will be here either tomorrow or early next week.
I'm planning to use it with my Q6600, 4gb (2x 2gb) Gskill DDR2, and for the moment a Nvidia 7900GTX. Any compatibility problems noted?
All of this is going in my new Armorsuit P80 case (really, its one of the best cases I've ever owned) However, I'm still using a SilverStone Nitrogen NT06 heatsink - I'm worried that this isn't going to fit over, or will run into the heatsinks on the board.
Any ideas?
see here my sig system : http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...postcount=1449
very similar to yours :up:
too tight may break the chip...:confused:Quote:

Up and running.
8GB DDR666 auto config'd.
Q6600
No voltage tweaks.
No crashes yet.
1 Problem, no 3D or Aero desktop, what could it be?
@lsevald
yes i got my FSB to 500 multi 8 @ 4GHz with 4GB of ram ... as for stable .... not soooo much :) but its good as long as i dont do anything intense on it haha
quick question ... which BIOS should i get the All OS or the DOS to flash. just now getting around to getting the 0701 ... right now i think im on like 0503 or something like that ...
ALSO .... would you recommend using their easy flash thing or through dos?
new bios 801 Improvie Memory compatibility

I am not sure if it is my mobo of something else but when I push the power button to turn on my pc it will on for like a second then it is totally off after about 2 or 3 second it will turn on itself. Seem like something wrong, is it my mobo?
Does this happen when you power on the pc for the first time ? and you have disconnected it fully from any power: then it's normal... It's been with Asus since day one with the P5W ... something to do with chipset strap settings...Quote:

Just gotta do all the tweaking now.
Lots of IRQ's in device manager...VistaX64
Disabled LAN1 and using LAN2 to move the IRQ onto its own.
Played Test drive unlimited, worked fine and fast @2560x1600.
Using my X-Fi Platinum in 2nd PCI slot, works good.
177.40's are the drivers i'm using, they re-enabled Aero.
Is this official or beta??Quote:
