Both work fine Tiramisu... I ran the Q6600 on 0907 and also with the QX9650 no issues... updated to 1003 hell broke loose... reflashed back to 0907 all fine, now tested 1004 and it runs fine with Q6600 and my Gskills 4gig kit... no worries... I think Kup advises to use 0505 for Q6600...

Indeed. I've had my best Quad experiences to date on the 0505 bios.

cool; no problem

@sup3rfly,

no,
you forgot the /i....

so it would look EXACTLY like this:

AFUDOS /iRF0219.rom /pbnc /n

**edit**

btw, 20 minutes in on PRIME small FFT's
and rock solid stable, with 2 notches lower CPU voltage! :D

PL5 with phases 1-2 disabled on both channels...and a bit loose subs...
10000mb/s seems pretty more than the result of the formula..

would anyone care to share there memory settings?
that pull in/out isnt making sense to me, If I play with it I get the "det dram" hang, then it takes forever b4 the pc will boot again.
Frustrating as hell. Finally had the Maximus sorted now its back to start again with Rampage

from what i noticed having the pull in/out enabled sets the actual performance level to 1 number lower, so a pl of 6 with pull in/out enabled makes a pl 5

yes but without actually changing the internal mobo timings i guess....
correct me if i`m wrong..

Helps with max fsb; requirements defer from cpu to cpu.

im with Grnfinger here too...

im getting some mixed results. DET RAM errors all over the place with similar settings i had used on the maximus BIOS... on the other hand however, cpu voltage is now lower, and amazingly, my load temps dropped 2 Celsius on full load~!!

giorgos th.

its easy...imagine that you give pl5 with all phases disabled...you still have pl5

if you give pl5 with phases enabled you actually have pl4......

soooo,with fe 400fsb you`ll work with pl5-disabled...but not with pl5-enabled...too tight..

This looks promising I'm not sure If I have time to tweak everything again though. /sigh I wish Asus would release a decent bios for the Maximus Formula but when I get more time I suppose this hack is in order :) Thanks for all the work on this guys, this is a thread to follow.

Sorry double post here.

Just loaded 219 and my bandwidth is :banana::banana::banana::banana:. Same setting and major crap here.

If I post my memory setting can someone with a tad more understanding of these new bios settings hold my hand and walk me through it?

Grnfinger;
