Check the stupid southbridge sink, it is so NOT FLAT that it does more harm than good. It took me half a day to lap it...Quote:

400x8 is better... making more use of the ram though so you need good/decent ones, I'm currently running on 400x8 and using a CNPS9500... runs cool and fine.Quote:

I'm having some ... odd issues with it ....

I can't boot higher than 400fsb.. :stick:Quote:

I also canīt post at 415.
It doesnt matter to me, Im not even orthos stable at 400
Need some help guys.
No matter what I set on bios for vFSB, vMCH and vICH (all at minimum, all at maximum, all combinations or all at auto): every time I up fsb I have to up vcore and vdimm at the same propostion or it even post on bios;
No matter what I set on bios for vFSB, vMCH and vICH (all at minimum, all at maximum, all combinations or all at auto): my fsb wall is still the same 390 and it even post on bios above this (no matter the multi, 7x, 8x, 9x...);
Did a quick test with vdrop to check if my processor needs a lot of vcore but I was able to reach the minimum Asus alows me: 1,2250v (2,4GHz, 266x9). And itīs 100% stable with this vcore.

On time: I always let CPU Thermal Control Enabled even with the low temps I get.
Stable results per clock with respective vcores*:
2.40GHz (266x9) -> 1,2250v
3.00GHz (334x9) -> 1,3625v
3.10GHz (345x9) -> 1,4125v
3.20GHz (356x9) -> 1,4750v :eek:
3.40GHz (378x9) -> 1,5125v :eek: :explode2:
Me -> really frustrated and confused :brick: :dammit:
That's because you have a week 23, your results look the same as my week 24... except I need more volts to reach 3.4ghz than you
older weeks used a lot of vcore. My week 24 needed 1.575v set in bios to run 3.6
I had a week 26 that performed similar to that ... cept it literally required 1.6V for 3.4GHz .. needless to say, its moved on to greener pastures now.
What I've been getting with 415FSB:
73MHz x9 = CPU clock or 657MHz.
http://picasaweb.google.com/taemun/C...88193663234978
Also seen 666MHz and 675MHz (didn't get camera out, this was previously)
It won't boot into Windows. Windows logo screen comes up, and thats it. Lock.
WTF @ 415 FSB = 73~75MHz CPU clock?!
t
Thanks folks. I thought I was the only one with that problem but, you guys with older weeks have fsb wall at ?
I am going to load it up and see just what it will or won't do for me.

Not possible to set multiplier above 10 with QX6700 in this BIOS. Back to 1506... :slapass:
I have been running this all day. Right out of the gate I booted up at 427fsb with my memory set on the 1:1 and my timings 3-3-3-4. I have been rendering video most of the day while we were out cutting down our Christmas tree. Got home just in time for the video to finish up. I have never ran this fast for this long with these settings with any other Bios. 1305 was good but this is a first!! It has now been over 4 hours and it is all good. It is still early but, I am very impressed so far with all this new found stability.

I run this speed and higher quite often but, never this stable or for this long.Maybe at long last asus is getting a handle on this Deluxe? board.
As you can see in the post just prior to mine. But I am running a Conroe not a Kentsfield and for me the 1506 was pure garbage.
Your results may vary.

Just a small note fellas. I just tried a lap job on the southbridge. Motherbaord temps have dropped 10 degrees if u guys wanna give it a try, it seems to help.
what is your settings in the bios? :)Quote:

No I am running the 1707 bios. This has been the first good update since the 1305.
I've read as much as I possibly can and tried just about every suggestion listed here.
My scenario is I have slow posting problems. The system isn't overclocked at all, and most of the settings are left at default or auto, or disabled.
Bios 1602
Raid0 2 drives, I've tried every single combonation of putting them on different sata ports, no change. I use a USB Keyboard (G15) and a USB Mouse (Microsoft laser), and my Dell 2405FPW is connected via USB as well for the card reader.
I've disabled all the Q-Fan stuff in the bios, disabled the 1394, disabled the Jmicron, and just about anything else that isn't used, and same results.
It posts super slow .. it sits at the Initializing USB blah blah ... and just sits ... then finally it displays the memory and poof from then on it's lightning fast, just a slow post. Once it gets past that, the machine flys, no crashes, no instability, nothing .. just takes forever to post.
Anyone have any additional ideas? I can't think of anything else to try.
EDIT
EDIT
EDIT: I fixed it ... it was the Card Reader on the Dell monitor. If I unplug that from the USB, it posts super fast. Stupid as hell, but whatever.. at least I know what it is now.

i have heard that the ich7r is faster than ez-backup in raid 0?
can anyone show me some benchmarks, or tell me your personal opinion/experience
i have it in raid 0 now, with the ez-backup, wanting to know if it would be better to put it on the intel one or anything?

then i plugged one of the raptors in the intel SATA port and it benched normally...
here was the difference:
~70mb/s average
~79mb/s average
pretty big difference
