you just confirmed manufacturing 101: don't screw with a good thing!:up: :D ;)Quote:

My settings for 3.9 were:
434X9 (No power funtions disabled in bios all default) Should I switch them off?
1.64v cpu
2.15v ddr 4;4;4;15 1;1
mch 1.44
vtt 1.31
Thats pretty much it, heres what it does.
Runs prime 95 small ftts for 3 minutes then whole comp shuts off (no BSOD, No reboot just shuts off)
I am running the new Coolit Freezone ELITE and I am hitting 67 @ 3.78 degrees under the load and I ran a 1.69v last night (blacked out also) with a 69/72/69/74 temp reading. So my temps arent the culprit.
What are some good start settings for it! Basically what would you do to try and hit 4ghz stable for a 20-30 min prime run. Id settle for 15minute, I need a max temp on it for Coolit. I have been beta testing the freezone ELITE and have pretty much everyhting stable to 3.78ghz after that I havent had time to work it with my reg use on the comp.
have you attempted the heatpipe mod?
to get it P95 stable, you will need max MCH and max on the ICHIO 1.5v...my max for P95 was at 3.8Ghz
I havent done the heatpipe mod but I do have a 120mm fan on high directly facinf the pipes and NB.
Max MCH is 1.72 and ichio is 2.volts. Isnt that going to cook something? Temps should be OK but thats a LOT of v through the mch and whatever that other thing is.
Or just start messing with the volts till it stabalizes?
What settings exactly would you start with and mem timings as well maybe loosen them and drop the multiplier to 8 or just play with voltages.
Also what would cause it to just shut off!
BTW I havent played with the ichio 1.5 at all its still at stock settings of 1.5. What does it do?
My stock timings are 4;4;4;15 what should I loosen them to and with those things maxed what should I watch for (rather be smelling for :D)
What t3emp is going to be effected by those and whats its max vs. shut off?
It comes down to the fact that your coolit can't handle a quad at max.
Thats an IMO:shrug:
Just look at your temps before it blacks out. You need more vcore and your temps will just go up more
I watched them and it hasnt gone over 73 max at 1.69v on 2 cores and 69 on teh otehr 2. It holds its own. Its something reaching its limit not the temps on the cpu though. I had a Eliminator I had the quad to almost 80 and NO problems. This ELITE works better than the standard freezone. They went from 175 watts of cooling to 250watts and on top of that both cpu and HS are lapped w/ AS5 along with my 120mm right there blowing air into the case on teh NB and freezone.
where did you get the elite...i might try it...
Barry at Coolit! They have a 30% off any product launch going on right now. Trade an old cooler wether it be fan and HS or wahtever for a discount to try new products.
Heres a link:

So heres a list of what Im going to try: tell me if its a good start.
CPUV 1.69
mch 1.72
ichio 1.5 2v
cpu vtt 1.31
timings 5;5;5;18;42 2.2v
434X9
Sound about right?
What else or what should I watch?
are you talking about actual vcore?...i presume that is a bios setting and you will get around 1.64v actual vcore...i would set it to 1.65 in the bios and start there...then work up if necessary.
I don't don't think you need much vmch or vcpu vtt because your not really in to a real high fsb here and your ram is 1:1. I'd say 1.23 vcpu vvt and 1.37 vmch max. Relax your timings on the ram, as Ace suggests and try it.
I haven't had to run voltages up from default on the ichio and ich for up to 488 fsb and I don't believe these settings will mater much between quad and dual. Why Ace had to max those beets me.
I haven't played with a quad yet, and won't until January;) , but I bet you need to be playing with the cpu gtlref settings. Just a guess.
And you really need to be running memtest before you make these big changes and running them right into the OS. You could start having corruption issues with the OS. Memtest will help you avoid that.
What is the cpu gtlef I saw it and it has 1/3 0/4 whats it for?
bios is 1.69 actual is 1.61 or so.
My FSB is 1600mhz at 3.6ghz as it sits right now.
is there any d/base submitted by user for this abit board?
i mean shared setup & OC achivement
Hey Nelly can you please fix the link for the 'new'
JMicron SATA Driver V 1.17.27 for 2000/XP/2003/64bit - 4th October 07
I just spent/wasted 30 mins checking all the different countries web site download pages for the IP35-Pro and NONE of them have the latest drivers :down:
Received my board today, and it's a V1.10. Has anyone actually found out what the difference is?
What bios should I flash to first? Anything else I should know? I probably won't have time to try 'her out until next week :(
Edit: Oh, and what's that molex connector below the second PCIe slot for? I'll be running a 8800GTX in it. Do I need to plug it in?
The clockgen has been changed from version v1.0 to v1.1 some sources say it's a production line change (ie different part to do the same job) others say it increases the available FSB (more than 600FSB). Jury is still out on that tho.
I am guessing BIOS 14 added support for the different clockgen IC on the rev 1.1 motherboard.
I have a 1.1 board and notice the FSB has a maximum value of 750. Does a 1.0 board running a v14 BIOS have this same maximum?
Currently I have a x3220 CPU (VID=1.30 v) running with stock Intel cooler with
BIOS settings of FSB=334 MHz, CPU Voltage 1.35 v, MCH 1.33 v, DDR2 2.0 v.
I have not run stress tests yet other than playing LOTRO. At Idle and ambient 24 C, uguru 1.05 shows CPU is 28 C and PWM is 39 C.
I don't know what can use FSB=750. I will not be overclocking my x3220 to 6.75 GHz.

I'm about to perform your heatpipe mod, but I had a question:
1. How the hell did you get the fan to stay on top of the PWM?(lol)
Also, did you see what your temps were like without the heatpipe assembly attached?
