Thanks dude ;) i'll try it later ;)
No... I can't boot at 480 x 8 anyway.... :shrug:

I have a little problem with the FSB: DRAM. I can´t seem to find an option in the bios menu to set it to 1:1.
To solve this i have to set the DRAM frequency to 667 in the bios and then change the FSB in windows using Asus AI suite. If i choose 400 fsb in the bios i can´t get my FSB: DRAM to 1:1, it´s set to 5:6. This is with 0907 bios and an E8400.
I´m no expert in any way, maybe i´m totally missing something here?
Assuming you have a Maximus Formula it would be nice if you also post:Quote:

How difficult is this board to clock? I don't want another DFI Lanparty NF4 experience :D That thing was a nightmare but it did get my 3700+ to 3ghz....
Eastcoasthandle, setup is:
Asus Maximus Formula
E8400
Thermalright 120 ultra extreme
Team Elite pc-6400 2x2gb
8800 gts 512
Hiper 580 psu
Vista 64 home premium
To get 1 : 1 you need to select the correct Dram Frequency. It's usually the 1st few selections from the drop down menu of Dram Frequency. The FSB strap to North Bridge should be OK at Auto. See if that helps any. I am not sure if bios 1004 helps any. Can anyone confirm this?Quote:

Try Transaction Booster Disabled and Relax 1 and Ai Clock Twister to Moderate. If none of those work then drop your DRAM frequency to something lower so that doesn't hold you back either for now.Quote:

The problem is, when i change from 333 to 400fsb the bios only let me choose 800 or higher for DRAM frequency. 667 just dissapears..
I'll try. With Dran frequency I'm already try set lower and Dram must work about ~960 smthng like that..Quote:

Thanks for all the effort and info in this thread, :clap:
Running Xp and crossfired HD3870's and everything works fine, just disabled the second lan port, voltminder and extra temp monitors and xp booted right up,
set everything in bios as it was originally for now, mem performance about the same as before, (2x 1g TeamXtreem Pc6400 @ 533, 4-4-4-12) but with all those new options (to learn and play with) I'm sure I'll get a little extra,
main reason for trying though was the horrible vdroop when overclocking the QX9650, runs 4g (10 x 400) fine at 1.328v under load, but had to be set at 1.425v in bios and idled in the desktop @ 1.392v, now it runs 1.35v set in bios, 1.328v idle and 1.336v under load... :shocked:
Havn't run any extended stability tests yet, but so far so good. :yepp:
OMG ! Why u set 400fsb ??? Set 333 and u get 667... Simpe...Quote:

CPU PLL Voltage : Auto
North Bridge Voltage : 1.49
FSB Termination Voltage : 1.40

You can't. The lowest divider is 1:1. X38 does not have downward dividers and only nvidia chipsets allow you to unlink the RAM and FSB.
You can do the 1600 fsb default pin-mod. Even though, in this case, the system wil automatically raise the default fsb to 400. Are the dividers not suitable for you? One trick to access all possible dividers on this board is to set the strap AUTO and then go to DRAM FREQUENCY and press ENTER button, you'll have access to all possible dividers. This is helpful if you don't really understand how fsb/strap affects your ram.Quote:

got some 9600 ram here and cant get the bugger to boot
I'd like to know as well :)Quote:

halp?
any new beta bios' out recently?
it seemed like we flew through the last 3... and updates? anybody?:shrug:
Please post you current bios settingsQuote:
