Well at least thats "somewhat" (if I can say that) believable, if the staff guy woulda have say something like "QX9775", then that woulda be...:rofl: :ROTF: :rofl:

Ohhh you guys are bad :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
LOL, let's leave him alone guys and focus on the subject.
How? To remove the cooler, thermal pasta to see some chip with a label "Intel Confidential" on it?

If you guys can't see something, it still can exist :D
Well, qx9775 is in the stores now, there is nothing to share rumors about ... ;)
BTW it looks that the corruption issue is related to a beta BIOS 790P03R2. I have flashed it today and after some reboots had to repair windows, before with either 01 or 03 I never had such issues. It means the guy didn't talk true about Seagate HDDs and possibly 9850 was in his dreams as well.
that's a QX9650 :p:
I know, just an example of "Intel Confidential" chip. QX9850, if it exists, should look somehow similar for now.
No the person who I was talking with is a big overweight guy in the Microcenter store in Santa Ana CA on the corner of Edinger and 55 FWY, anyone can ask him about that QX9850 - I re-asked him two or three times if he is not mistaken.
I have his business card somewhere.
Guys, miracles happen - take look on my avatar, for example, it is a label on a CPU (was under the thermal pasta and cooler), installed in some "custom made" PC ... can you believe that someone would be THAT dumb?
Here is QX9775 in the stores:

there is no such thing as a QX9850 mate ;) believe me
Godamn it, I knew that. I actually was kinda playing around with my wishlist @ newegg and I had two of them in my wishlist with a skull trail. I think I should go sleep.
Anway, guys I just saw this @AT. WOW man, they killed a QX9650 with high VTT(not high vcore). They also say that that chip can do 4GHZ @ 1.29 on various boards and the batch of that QX9650 is L739A765(If the chip is the same as shown in the picture) and my QX9650 from L739A732 requires 1.4375 to be prime stable on the 780i :mad: . I am thinking it might the P5N-T. Can't wait to get my hands on the S2E.
You know what? The guy was probably talking about this CPU, and such as I never even think about AMDs CPUs nor know about their CPU models, I probably misunderstood him ...

LET'S STAY ON TOPIC PLEASE
Back to the corruption issue:
Sorry for the noobish questions, but can anyone help to clarify a few things:
x How can data corruption kill you HD (esp. the raptor ones)?
I have 2x150GB Raptor X setup and so far they work ok
x How can you make sure that data corruption did not occur because of overclocking memory a step too far?
I've had for instance corrupted files/registry by booting with an instable system
x Can anyone think of a simple test that would always reproduce the data corruption issue?
I have tried copying > 10GB files from one drive to another, and then binary compare but could never get a single bit of difference....
x How can video playback (or crysis menus) freezing your system be linked to the data corruption issue?
x What are the chances the issue can be fixed with a new BIOS?
I would speculate it is hardware related anyway :-(
guys i ask smthing...
PLS don't vote early about the issues, you must use the mobo at least one whole week! and test a lot of memory options, delivers, timings, voltages, ect!
I wonder if not having memory that is Qualified could casue these issues.
Anyone know where the list is at?
Someone emailed me this MT16JTF25664AY-1G4 but I don't know who makes that module....
My assumption is that the corrupted file is a block (cluster) in a boot sector? It's not a kill, of course, HDD regenerator can fix this, but someone need to know what tool is useful.
Because we had no corruption issues with the same settings and P03 BIOS?Quote:

All tests which I have used, were Lavalys and Futuremark, but corruption happened during the boot process after I settled P1 and P2 in "enabled" instead of "auto".Quote:

Easily, bad blocks on your HDD may be in different areas, if they are in a boot area, HDD "dies", if somewhere else - you have a problem running that particular application.Quote:
x How can video playback (or crysis menus) freezing your system be linked to the data corruption issue?
It's doubtful that it is a hardware, because I, for example, had no issues with P03 standard BIOS (except of the memory limitations).Quote:

I would speculate it is hardware related anyway :-(
Let's hope that the issues will be fixed in a new BIOS - or, if not, in new chipset drivers.
Hmm for a while I was happy with no corruption with my S2E board but yesterday it happened to me aswell. Hope they will fix this problem asap with a new bios or driverupdate:(
I am really dubious about the whole "sfc /scannow" procedure.
When I run it, I am being asked for the windows XP for each and every single file. Really the popup comes up a thousand times.
Now why I can play Crysis flawlessly for several hours in a row and use my comp without encountering any crash nor BSOD is beyond me.
With so many files corrupted, how can windows even boot?
And why I don't get any corruption when I copy very large files from one disk to another?
I am actually surprised I am not getting any corruption. With below settings I am quite stable. Can't go any higher without messing with voltages. Will wait for P04 bios, hopefully that fixes my problems.
Build:
E8400 @ 7.5x multiplier 400x7.5 = 3Ghz CPU@1.175v FSB@1.2v

evga 790i Ultra @ 1600 FSB
1xevga 9800GTX
2x150G Raptor 10krpm not in raid
Plextor PX-755SA SATA DVD
PC Power & Cooling 750w
I think the SATA controller is flaky on these boards, again hopefully P04 will fix this.
Hello, I have a striker II too, and after having a lot of trouble, Ive got a stable system
