currently at 3.6 (450*8 or 400*9 at 1.39v actual) right now, can post at 4ghz but can't get prime to run for more then 15 minutes (even at 1.5v actual)
much better overclocking with quads then my old p5wdh
sorry to bump this, but I have a question.
I was reading a review of the XFX 780i at this link.
http://www.pcper.com/article.php?aid...e=expert&pid=5
There is a CPU N/2 option in the bios that allows another .5 to be tacked on to the multiplier.
I am not sure if that is an exclusive on the 780i. There has been some debate over 8500 vs Q9450. The problem with the 9450 is its 8 multiplier. However, will the CPU N/2 option work with a quad and make the effective multi 8.5?
If so, then overclocking the q9450 will be a tad easier correct?
q9450
possible?
8.5 multi x 471 FSB = 4003.5 Mhz
normal
8.0 multi x 500 FSB = 4000 <--- difficult to do, I presume
a .5 increase on a 8500 could make it go sky high too.
If you think that you can add .5 multiplier to the Q9450, you're wrong.Quote:

Then what does the CPU N/2 option do? Or does it only work with the current 65nm chips?Quote:

Im having some problem with my new rig(XFX 780i and 8800gt@ SLI) and nvidia driver, my regular PSU Enermax Infinity 720w gaveup the day before i put this things in, now im sitting on a Ipower 600w PSU.
It put my gfx in endless loop and so on:( and advise or tips? and if someone could share there setting would be great:)

Nope, this was anounced a couple weeks ago without any indication of a release date.Quote:

i am getting a "floppy disk fail error" on POST that stops the process, and i have no floppy connected, and disabled in bios.....anyone?

also what pci-e mhz is everyone using, im at 135 with no issues so far.
I am using one in my rig and so far so good. I have had the board for about 5 weeks now and its running pretty well. Hopefully this will keep up. :crosses fingers:Quote:

Ok, it seems that my ISP was having some issues and pictures were being stripped from the forum. That made it look like the pencil mod post was a dead one, but i see now.....
The picture shows the resistor as a 100K ohm resistor. I understand the point of a pencil mod is to try and lower that resistance by a certian amout/degree. What is the target resistance we're looking for there?
I've measured mine and it is dialed to 100K. So I just need to know what I'm trying to tune it to with the pencil lead.
