Yes mate :)
But, enabling the LLC, there wasn't better ,to exclude the problem with voltage?

My test P5Q3 DLX does not boot with anything over 480MHz :(
I´ll think that it is those GTL voltages or just bad board.
Tried AUTO for all voltages first except Vcore and RAM ? I just set PLL voltage then ( need 1.6 to be stable ), reboot, posts, save to OC profile, set FSB Term voltage, reboot, post, save to OC profile,... hope you get my drift... can take a long time to find the lowest working voltages but it iwll be rewarding in the long run... though I don't like to run these expensive CPU's at 500FSB daily... I drop to 400FSB again for daily use...
I have never used more PLL voltage than 1.5V.
Seems like board is not posting if NB voltage is over 1.3V
Edit:
I´m trying first to get 9x445MHz stable with X3110(E8400).
And I raised first CPU GTL to 0.715 and it did help alot.
anyone have issues with 400MHz strap?
I am having major issues with E7200 and 400MHz strap, will not play nice together.
Q9450 and 400MHz strap are fine.
Makes no sense, 333MHz strap is fine with E7200, currently at 440MHz FSB (4.2GHz CPU) with no issues.
8 doesn't seem to be be prime stable, also Superpi crashed around iteneration 8, PL 9 brought solution there, maybe also some more NB volts would have done the trick...PHP Code:

Will try the E8500 in the afternoon sir, with the quad till now touching the GTL and FSB Term voltages gives me some griefs and no posts... also NB around 1.3 sometimes doesn't post, so I bumped it to 1.5, no worries there anymore (you can also try AUTO)
Keep ya updated

Didn't get a chance to get my hands dirty last evening - will probably put it all together tonight and run it this weekend.
Anyone here running a Q9450 on this board? What's the max you're hitting on Air? Can anyone tell me what kind of max temperatures I should be keeping in mind when OC'ing the Q9450 on this board?
Thanks!!
Yes, 530MHz seems to be maximum out of this P5Q3 dlx, and it needs 1.56V for NB voltage.
And it wond even post at 1600MHz or faster memory speeds.
Edit:
Memory issue solved by disabling DRAM Static Read Control.
my p5q3 is also from china (rev 1.02G)
can boot an e8500 at 600 fsb - not tried stability
for 600 fsb i found i only needed 1.34/1.36V for the NB, and playing with the NB gtl helped
500 fsb with the dual seems like a breeze and only needed approx 1.26V set for NB and fsb term, with 1.5v for pll and a 0.615x nb gtl
messing with a q6700 atm, finding it a little harder to push the fsb without tweaking things, and voltage levels need to be a little higher
i dont know why, but my P5Q3 need ~1.36v NB voltage for only 400FSB...
my P5Q Dlx can prime 550FSB with 1.4v NB voltage (dont test with lower voltage)
Max FSB i can boot with P5Q3 is 550FSB @ 1.60v NB voltage and this only with
1:1 divider
Some E8500 action... indeed with P5Q Dlx 600FSB out of the box is a breeze... CPU stability is there though need to tweak some ram settings to get it stable there...

600FSB prime :eek:
how much nb voltage need it?
1.5NB only :Screenshot is small FFT's Chrisch, but it's not blend stable , superpi 32mb stopped to, so I need some guru that can guide me through these Skew settings... (C'mon EVA2000 you can do it )
How much voltage to northbridge??
and the voltage of cpu on the bios, how much??
ok, only small ffts... i test large ffts for mainboard stability and gtl settings :)
CPU Voltage: 1.25
CPU GTL Voltage Reference (0/2): AUTO
CPU GTL Voltage Reference (1/3): AUTO
CPU PLL Voltage: 1.6

BUT AGAIN THIS IS NOT STABLE
Sorry for the question...
but what is the stock volt of north?
Okay, the over is not stable but I just want to have any reference
