Negative on that, sir. No boot here!Quote:

anniku989, try those again but disable the " DDR Write Training" and raise "tRFC" to something like 58. It is easy to change after boot w/memset.
Ive never used it but I figured if it did boot it would atleast give you some figures to work with. If you think theres an option your missing try loading optimized defaults to clear everything then reenter the other settings.Quote:

I overclocked my Q6600 to 3.0ghz, the temp is just fine maz of 39C with only air cooling. I ran OCCT after 10 mins, it detailed that core#1 occured an error. What would that imply?

It would imply that one/some of your settings are wrong, post your full BIOS settings so we can help ;)Quote:

EDIT: I had e-mail correspondence with someone who owns a UD3P and he claims NB watercooling isn't necessary since the block is cool to the touch and he's running 500FSB+ on a Quad.
does the UD3P and UD3R have a CMOS switch/jumper that's easy to access in the back port?

absolutely not! You gotta shove a screwdriver in between the pins to short them out. OR; you could get a jumper to close the pins. Which; by the way,Quote:

Hello, finally plugged in my Q9650 into this board this week and got around to 4.302 24/7 stable at vcore of 1.344.
Proof.
Does anybody have a link for a guide on what to do with Cpu Clock Skew and Mch Clock skew?
I read about those two settings in another forum a while back and that if properly tuned they allow you to get away with lower vcore for stability. Ofcourse back then I had a Q6600 and was more concerned with temps so I didn't pay attention to it but now that I've got a Q9650 I am wondering what to do with those two settings.
Thanks in advance.
With this board I am so new I can not answer for sure, my guess would be no. Auto setting usually lets the board decide the setting and if the board determines that disabled is the most stable then that is what you will get on auto. I noticed that when set to auto on my current setting it is the same thing as enabled. Somebody with more knowledge about this board would know for sure.Quote:

I have a feeling that the RAM speed, voltage, and trimming are all messed up :( , but frankly don’t have the knowledge to judge or decide anything here (googling & reading atm), I tried different settings in the “DRAM Performance Control”, if I set MCH Frequency Latch to 300 it only gives me 2.00D as an option, 400 opens 2.00B, tried both and didn’t notice any difference.
If I set the “System Memory Multiplier” to auto, the number in the “Memory Frequency” goes from 1066…800 to 1066….1280 but was afraid to save and apply this
I did something else that made the memory speed 533 (in cpu-z)and something else that made the trimmings 5-5-5-15 (in cpu-z)
btw, even if I enable the “CPU EIST Function” the CPU multi is still fixed @ 8.5 and the speed is fixed @ 3400 ?! :confused:

I am not good enough at setting reference voltages but since you are only trying for a 425FSB overclock you should not be raising your Termination and MCH core levels high enough that the auto setting will hold your stability back to much and one of the better OC guys can help you set your reference volts later. You might end up needing slightly higher Termination and MCH levels, I am new to this board but I am sure this will start you in the right direction. I never use any of the Advanced BIOS crap like Virtualization/Thermal Monitor/No-Execute since this can cause stability problems, especially turn off Virtualization unless you actually use it to run Virtual OS's. Also, with your RAM being a 2x2gb 1066mhz kit I would use the 2.4B setting to get a bit closer to your standard ram speed(example is 425fsb x 2.4b = 1020mhz RAM speed). If you can, use the Ram multi's that are attached to the 333mhz and 400mhz latch but other latches can be used as well depending on what RAM speed you are aiming for. Also make sure you set your Ram voltage to specs, I am assuming the spec for your kit is 2.1v and the 1.050 reference for that voltage is good.Code:******Motherboard Intelligent Tweaker (M.I.T.)******

EDIT: I changed your overclock from 8.5x400 to 8x425 since this board can easily handle 425FSB. With 425FSB you should get much better RAM performance then with the 400FSB you were aiming for. Your perfect Vcore could be lower then what I put in the code but since I do not know your VID or if you have passed a small ftt run at 1.8vcore I changed it to 1.28(~1.25 in reality) just to get you started. If for some reason the 2.4B multi does not boot due to the bug associated with it you can try 2.5A for 1062mhz RAM.
well I initially set the vcore @ 1.28 then started lowering it till 1.1875 (nothing less worked) and passed about 20 minutes prime95 (the one in the screenshot), I don't really know how else to determine what’s best since all seemed to handle prime95 fine unless 20 minutes is too short, I also tried to follow what OC Nub mentioned in his post
I forgot to disable Virtualization, don't really care about Thermal Monitor (CPU overheating thingy) and No-Execute (buffer overflow attacks thingy) but saw some templates with both enabled and said why not
I saw the 2.4 settings but didn't try it, will test it today (found good info here)
yes spec is 2.1
I’m at work now, will try the settings you attached when i go home, I’ll even try to see if 8.5X425 works after I settle the memory settings.
did you notice the 5-7-7-7-20 timings? this can't be normal right?
