right updated to bios 1802, and i can 3dmark at 470 FSB, but gaming i have to take back to 458 once again. shall i try BIOS 2 and put 1802 in that, and start afresh with that?
any good modded bios's?

very impressive grnfinger.by the way,what is the latest board revision#? i think my last board was 1.02? maybe some of you guys can take a quick look and see what you guys have? and possibly post them?thank you.
1.02 here as well.Quote:

You can start with telling us what is your hardware m8 :) and what are your settings in BIOS.Quote:

That's an incredible cpu, good work on the OC :DQuote:

Here is a Template to use for posting your info.
Here is my current attempt at total stability with a simple 4ghz oc. Skews and GTLs are set to auto for now. Below the bios settings I have a screen shot of multiple screen shots showing stability.

I have re-sized the image for 21" monitors so I apologize for blurryness, but I did not like how big the original shot was, lol (on a 24" mon). A friend tells me this is overkill for stability testing but I wanted to make sure. The PC Probe image on the left is Active with LinX running in the background and on the right is a screen of idle. Real Temp shows temps with LinX running after about 10 mins. Real Temp says idle is 44c immediately after the Linx test. I think it normally is around 35c. Not sure if Real Temp 2.90 is accurate or not though.
This OC has been running for nearly two weeks now and has been very enjoyable. Gaming has been ROCK SOLID without so much as a flinch. I quite like how when idle my oc drops to 3ghz, but I had a friend suggest I do that since Im not always at my pc.
At this point I am looking for any tips/pointers as to what I should do next. Should I start with lowering some v? Or is this OC just fine as is? Thanks

And this is my template for 460fsb stable (12h blend + 10max IBT + Pi 32m):
But my Mobo really like volts... :( especial on vtt and vnb).
You can give it a shot. Maybe it will be some starting point for you.
RAM timings are from Grnfinger (THX m8) and they work all the way up to 475 fsb so I will work on them when I got it finally stable at 471 or more - almost there. But my PC is 2000km from me ATM :D.

Looks pretty nice to me :) - you could always go for higher PCIe freq. and also try squeeze you RAM to work on 1200mhz with 10:12 div.Quote:

Nice score, but that's a Vantage score mate if it was a 3dmark06 score I would be shocked with that hardware...
edit - cut
Sorry My Friend Vantage Is True Sorry For My Fault
seban, THANKYOU!!!!!!!
it worked, i am 470FSB stable thus far. havent tried more.
does this board undervolt?
also, what driver is needed for esata and port multiplier?
Marvell 61xx v1.2.0.60 drivers are the latest for eSATA I believe...Quote:

Hey guys
After some days of tweaking i arrived at IBT and LinX stable on mems 1200 PL7...I was able to pass 1h+ prime smallfft's but IBT and LinX failed in seconds...So i decided to work more, IBT and LinX using ALL memory are a hell of stressers, it really needs some volts to pass them.

Well I have finally got a M2F and a E8500 chip. Now my goal is a 4Ghz stable OC. I know little about OC ing so could someone post bios settings that would make this happen, thanks in advance. Oh am also using Ballistix tracer ram - 2Gb @1066Mhz.

as it is vid dependent
s2f and s2e is different.

main reason y i dont want to post the skewing test... suddenly there will be a thread when its based on one proc only/ram config only
Anyone have good Quad core 8x500 settings? I have a Q9650 that does 9x450 just fine, but i want a higher FSB.
Looking for a good place to start, I can get P95 and OCCT to go for 5-10min then it crashes. Anyone have settings for it that i can give a whirl?
this is my Q9550 result, My goal is 495x8.5 :D
