@The Stilt:Can the bios be modified with tRFC value of 1 step and tREF option?

I value my NDA, letalone my balls than my ex g/f sorting me out the NDA with ASUS. Also the fine and other losses i don't fancy.Quote:

Tell ya what, anyone that adds me in the next day relating to the program on MSN i will dump your IP to ASUS. I think it's highly rude and discrascefull of you asking me like you have.
On a good note, i have 2 more newer BETA BIOS for the bord, i have the bord here right now.
Im about to build my own personal rig back up which uses the MFSE bord and plan on doing the BIOS MOD as my ram worked at the uber high settings on the RF but not on the MFSE.
The BETA BIOS's i might be able to sort you out on as i've seen them leaked on other FTP sites and stuff in China (the bloody norm) and Thialand!
Oh and get the NB cool, cooler the better, more FSB, less Vmch, less PPL, higher clocks and tigther timings all round.

wtf? red pcb? you mean red and silver heatsinks?Quote:

They are the same, So the Pinotnoir is a X48 aka Rampage Extreme and the Maximus Extreme is the X38
Trust me, it's not the same as anything you've had. Imagen DFI making everthing for ASUS and your getting somewhere with the logical thinking on all aspects.Quote:

Bios for it is more of a headach than being hit by a bus at 90mph. I love this bord so far
Well then Pete, Want to point out the major difference on design besides the cooling system? because everything is the same down to every resistor and chip. So, Just like the Maximus Formula to the Rampage Formula, The Maximus Extreme to the Pinotnoir should do the same thing.Quote:

Hope it helps.

Is the Pinot Noir not an nForce 790i chipset?Quote:

i guess that Supreme FX is missing in the Pinotnoir....
Look under the edge of the heatsink on the Chipset of the Pinot Noir, The area is the same. You can see the edge of the "missing" cap poking out.Quote:

And some of the caps are moved sightly around, That wouldn't effected alot, so techically, There is only 1 cap missing.
Quick Q: BIOS 0907 or 1004 for Q6600 G0 and 2x 1GB 1066 Ballistix Tracers?
Sorry Warboy, but it's 790i...Quote:
The nForce 790i-powered Pinot Noir motherboard, part of the latest ASUS Republic of Gamers series, is now being showcased at CeBIT. What's uncommon about this motherboard is the unique water cooling solution for its major components. Furthermore this board can work with the latest Intel 45nm CPUs and utilize 4x DDR3 modules, three PCI-E 2.0 x16 slots and six SATA 3.0 Gbps connectors.
So what your saying is there different boards .... :rolleyes: ;)Quote:

The reason why i flashed/tested my P5E is because of the fact it simply states "Maximus Formula" under the P5E sticker so production lines are equal.
The only difference are indeed some missing chips (2nd GB lan etc.) but no differences in important parts like chipset/voltage circuits etc.
i did not know you were bound by nda. will sharing the beta bios' violate nda as well? sorry to ask but we are all anxious over here. :yepp:Quote:

That's wrong, it's not 790i.Quote:

The news over the net from Cebit saying it's a 790i motherboard are incorrect.
Works great...no issues to report!:)Quote:

it's a 790i, ASUS wouldn't put 3 PCIE slots on a high-end Intel X48 board that is toted to support CrossfireX....4 individual cards. Until I see proof, the 3 slots is a dead give away.
Thanks BenchZownerQuote:

---------------------------------
what i don't understand is why i cant go above 400MHz bus, if i rise it to 401 the system go and restart and like that when i rise all the settings.
i try to lower my memory speed, rise the voltage of the PLL to 1.7, NB 1.6, FSB to 1.64 and so on, nothing help.
anybody have some advise ??
Good to know ;-)Quote:
