XP 64 bit is smoking fast when you fine tune the OS and services. Vista is "ok" when it's tuned but that statement is pretty crazy in my eyes. :rofl:Quote:

I think I'm just going to re-install windows again and see if that helps any because I am at a total loss as to what would cause this....
Wow, that sucks ... I'd never know where to begin, but it does sound like a memory mapping issue within XP ... out of curiosity, does the system properties page change when you take out a stick at a time?
I can't tell from your fuzzy screenshot but it looks like Everest is reporting 2046 for system RAM? Have you tried stock speeds for your cpu / mb / ram? What about moving the modules to diff dimm slots to test as well? Try 2 at a time to see if one set is good or bad.Quote:

Too late, I'm already in the process of re-installing windows so I can't check that right now. If it happens after the re-install I will start pulling RAM to see what happensQuote:

huh.....all appears to be well on the western front.
Well, it appears that my problem stems from Everest version 4.50. Windows was reporting 4 gigs of RAM up until I installed Everest at which time Windows went back to reporting 2.75GB. For some reason it is passing incorrect info to the OS.
I sent them an e-mail so hopefully they'll sent me an update soon.

XP 64 bit drivers with all the bells and whistles from the Vista only packs that creative release, diagnostic utils, speaker setup, and a TON of improvements over the creative drivers. I installed these and they're a notch above how my system sounded in Vista 64.
You can also install all the programs in XP from the original CD then use the auto update agent to update them even thou the drivers and software for xp 64 bit are not on creatives site. Base driver support is offered but not EAX or the console... they're pretty damn sneaky these days.
you have CPU-Z w/ disabled DMI readings (i assume)....so it reads garbage. Check your cpuz.ini or update cpu-z, had the same "problem" once.Quote:

Same here. I just can NOT pass 420. I'm using a 65NM, but nothing does it; no NB volts, sb volts, or VTT volts. my ram tested on the 333/1066 strap made it to 1080 stable, but when I switch it up to 333/800 I get caught at 420.Quote:

i can't run them with just changing the divider and upping the nb voltage to 1.35
should I wait for the new bios or try anything else?
Im after some advice please as ive read through the post`s and am i right in thinking that for the 45nm E8400 that the max FSB vtt is 1.45 so 1,4 or lower is better ? and what about the v-core as people seem to be getting 4Ghz on 1.36v or so but what is the max safe volt for it.
Ive just got one so im gonna oc it over the wk end and see what i can get out of it so any other advice is welcome.
Cheers All!!!
Edit.. Have i got confused is 1.45v the max v-core and the FBS vtt can be as low as 1.2v??? HELP !!!!!
Well here is my 1st boot up with it in with gtl settings @
1/2 95
0/3 90
nb 75
http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/g...untitled-3.jpg
Im gonna occt now and see if im stable @ 3.96Ghz...... fingers crossed.....
You did have it turned around in the beggining of this. 1.45V is the Absolute most as says Intel for V-CoreQuote:

Well its been done 2h stable with the following settings...:up:
http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/gg211/wils07/1-1.jpg
http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/gg211/wils07/2.jpg
I think i will stick with 3.917Ghz for now as 4Ghz gave me errors after 5min of occt.
eh...
try this
reduce ure vtt back to 1.1
change ure nb gtl to 60
cpu 1/3 to 90
cpu 0/2 to 85
nb voltage at 1.4 since ure running 4 sticks
enable vdroop control
then just adjust vcore until occt passes..
445 bus on 45nm's c2d vtt at stock is still okay..
clunk do u know when dfi x48-t3R is coming out??
going to ddr3 ..
anyone with 45nm quad , can you go above 420 FSB?
anyone???
thanks
thought this might be usefull for 45mn
All these GTL charts are great but what are our GTLs supposed to be? I understand that all boards and CPUs are slightly different but a good starting point would be fantastic. I've been all over the spectrum from 75-120 on my GTLs and i've been stable for a period of time in P95 in the whole range. I've upped my CPU VTT and Vcore to points that I think "should" work and then try adjusting the GTLs to dial it in but there seems to be no rhyme or reason for failure if I go up or down.Quote:

I just have a quick question.
When i start up my pc it powers on for about 4 seconds with nothing coming up on the screen. Then it turens off and powers on again about 2 seconds later. Is this normal? I am just worried i have changed something in the BIOS that i wasn't supposed to.
Thanks
That's usually the motherboard trying to recover from a bad overclock. You can set the option to how many times it tries in the bios.Quote:

you can alse go auto till you reach the max then you need to set them manually
some people have got upto 485fsb with auto i couldnt go past 440fsb on auto
gtl settings have to relate to the % +-1
dual cores are forgiving with quads you gotta be more precise
when i get my board back first thing i will do is measure all voltages n gtl voltages

asus board is like driving atomatic tranny dfi like a stickshift
mind you i seen better performance on the asus
dfi gotta get its bios on track
I had to disable GTL to get stable but when i had a lower vtt i got crashes as with a nb volt of 1.4 but this could of been because i had GTL enabled with bad settings maybe.
It was late when i finished last night and was just glad to pass @ 3.917Ghz but 4Ghz is my goal.
Is anybody using GTL enabled with 1.16 or lower vtt and if so what settings have you got as cstkl1 & zsamz_ have given some answers but both are different values and with it needing to be disabled to pass its gotta be related .
any tests and temps with the UT version?
As previously mentioned I had problems getting 4Ghz stable but went up in VTT to 1.16v and used 82,79,63 (straight off the anand chart for 63%) and i've been stable since.Quote:

I will try it and see if it helps ,also can you tell me what your nb and v-core is pls as we both seem to need the same vtt.
Cheers Paul
update
Ive just tried them with 4.0Ghz and got a code 4 2mins in i also got it with GTL disabled? Colud it be my vcore needing 1.38 insted of 1.36 but it seems high for a 4.0 Ghz oc.
hmm best way to eliminate ram and nb gtl/voltage and vttQuote:

until that is stable than only use occt
keep upping the vcore until u find stable with minor adjustments on cpu gtl.
i find this is the best way to clock on this board.
Thats not accurate at all. If a person does not keep the system on a ups, unplugs the computer, or loses power, the system does the reboot to reset the registers every time on a cold boot. Not caused by a bad clock at all.Quote:

Can anyone tell me what happens when the GTL are disabled? what is the default setting`s if any.
I'm pretty sure a page or 2 back someone answered this, may have been Praz. Just going by memory, I "think" its 67 for all 3, but don't quote me on it.Quote:

I knocked back the FSB to 420, and I keep finding I can keep knocking the CPU and VTT voltage back more and more and still not get any P95 errors. Funny how big a difference that 5 Mhz is.

i will try lowering vnb down to 1.5 but i doubt it will work .
i did have it at 500fsb 4ghz stable but it required over 1.5 vcore and over 1.6 vnb its not worth it at those volts
i might have to get one of those e8400s everyones using, they dont require as much volts as this x6800.

I have read much of what you writing here .... and with a few hours lost my system to get 100% estable!!

i can run 505fsb with 4 sticks but i need 1,6nbv 1220 5-5-5-15 2.1v
yeah i should be satisfied and i kind of am . but i did expect more than this. i thought at 475/1141 3.8ghz apps games pics etc would be superfast but there not , even though i have 4gb installed with vista its still pretty much the same. a page of photos still has to load its not instant etc same with apps there not that much faster.
if i went over 4ghz ,would that make much of a difference ? ie- loading /running games ,maps , apps ,photos, etc?
I'm at 4Ghz with my E8400, 4 gigs of RAM, and used to have Vista 64 but running XP 64 now. My apps and photos, from my camera, run super quick. My boot times and how fast programs load on startup are amazing compared to what they were.Quote:

3.8 -> 4 ... I highly doubt you'll notice much of a difference.
Does anyone think by dropping my multi from 9 down to 8 it will help get me to 4.Ghz.
Or do you think i need more vtt as ive tried more v-core , more nbv and GTL enabled and disabled and different ram settings and i always get code 4 about 2 mins in. All i have left is to raise the vtt but is there a limit as to how much i should use ??
It's easier to use 9 to get to 4ghz because your FSB is at 445 instead of 500. 500 FSB takes more VTT, RAM is more picky if you don't chose the right divider, and the NB is under more of a load.Quote:

Up the NB to 1.5 or more to test. I have 2x2gb sticks and i have to run mine at 1.50 in the bios to keep them perfectly stable. I can notch the volts down but games tend to stutter and i have random locks up once in a while so i've left it at 1.5Quote:

i just wanted to reduce trc ,its at 53 . my timings are 5 5 5 15 trc53 .
with my oc as seen in my sig , with 4x1gb, should i be trying to reduce trc to say 30? 53 seems abit loose , but im not sure since having 4 gb changes everything. anyone with 4gb have theres lower than that?
*i was just reading that the formula for trc is -trc=tras+trp so for me it would be 15(tras)+(trp)5=(trc)20 . but ive tried 30 trc and it just crashes. any ideas as to how could i set my mem timings? im following the formulas but they havnt been very succesful. i think my timings are the reason my system is still running slow .

Yes this board does overvolt alot. Make sure you have cpu special add turned onto .23%, auto overvolts your cpu volts more
it dosnt overvolt it dose what u tell it to, and if u have load line or auto settings then u are telling it to overvolt, or u have one of the broken beta biosesQuote:

btw everest is not 100% accurate chek with dmm n see
Well, I will give it a try with Special Add NOT set to AUTO and see if this might rectify the Over Voltage. One more question for you guys about CLUNK'S GTL Ref Tables, and by the way Clunk thanks for all the effort in setting up this guide Post. I still DO NOT understand if there is a relationship between the CPU VTT and the NB VTT or if there is any.
For example if I use the values of 110 (GTL 1/2 Ref) 105 (GTL 0/3 Ref) and 85 (NB GTL Ref) from Clunks Table for 1.2500v CPU VTT BIOS Setting, what should the Voltage be for the NB VCore in the BIOS, can that be anything I set it to for example 1.405v.
The reason I ask is that P95 failed after 9.5h it fell over executing the 4096K FFT, so I figured I would focus on the NorthBridge
I can understand a little variance but we're talking the difference between 100.24% and 102.6%. Like I said, i'm not pissed about it. It's just that i've never been able to fully trust the Vcore settings. The rest of them seem to be pretty spot on though.Quote:

Axis
Well They have blocked the Special Add Option and I cannot use it unless I set the VCORE to >1.3000v. This really SUCKS, so I guess I cannot fine tune the voltage I need unless I run at a speed that requires more than 1.3000v.Quote:

Other thoughts. Using the 2x2GB sticks must be less stressful on the NB than populating all 4 DIMM slots because 1.29V on the NB is far less than the 1.55-1.58V my Maximus required to run 4x1GB sticks of PC-9200 Mushkin @ 1067MHz 5-5-4-12-30.
I've got to hand it to the DFI guys, they definitely put together a well thoughtout and stable BIOS. I only had to clear the CMOS once and that's when I started messing around with fine delay settings. Other than that it was clear sailing the whole way to 3.8GHz.
I'm using one of those Antec Spot Coolers bent over and blowing on the PWM, I've got it plugged into the system fan plug so that I can control the speed of it via software, but it also has a 3-speed switch on it.

pic of mosfet with sink from accelero s1 i had to cut it was too long it was made for ati card stuk it with thermal tape + a screw
i had to lap my pwm sink too was bad i added those pics too
man :up: that is power and beauty :p:
