I can set 1.45v and add % to get higher but seems like my SD 3700+ is also having this issue. Is this a board problem then? I have K8N neo2 pt.

No, its not a problem your board - all neo2 plats are like that. The highest "real" vcore you'll acheive through bios is 1.45 (plus and additional %). The only way you can go higher than the base 1.45Vcore is to increase voltage through CoreCenter.

Why do they include the 1.5, 1.55, etc selection then? :confused:

anyone have a pic of their naked SD?

adn maybe a before and after compare?

thanks

They work for me?

CPU-Z shows the voltage correctly does it not?

They are a little lower than you would expect but they "work"...just use the +% to make it even out...

Its funny i just ordered from monarch and i get a 0512 XPMW and everyone else has a 0515 or newer, I think i got screwed with old warez

Post your result and let us see.

3700+ CABGE 0512 XPMW here.
2.82Ghz max s&m stable 15*110% vcore in bios

Hmm, not much 0516 around, and that's exactly what I have from Monarch coming... interesting.

Maybe things have changed with newer revisions of the board, but for me the options for over 1.45 are available, but they did nothing in terms of pushing the Vcore over 1.45. Try this: Set your vcore to 1.45 and don't add any % and see what cpuz says. Then try higher and see if there's any difference in what's reported.

i have the worst cpu 3700+ 0512 XPMW SD .

Cant do past 2.55 gighertz on my DFI
using Redline 4000+ and GSKILL PC4400 LE

VAPOCHILL LS

cough cough back in the box in a few weeks, putting back fx55

hmmm

New SuperSystem: Courtesy of Monarch

3700+ SD cabbage, 4x 512M sticks Twinmos TM400II UTT "AA4T", DFI Ultra converted to SLI-D, 5V memory jumper, OCZ 520 Powerstream, 2x 36G raptor raid0, X850XT, mod'd AMS CF1009 case, NEC 3520A 16xDVD burner.

Stock HSF on SD, AS3 used for all. X850XT at stock clocks. SD at 250Mhz x11, 250Mhz HTT (x3), 1.250 + 126% (1.50)Vcore, Vdimm @ 3.4V, 1.4Vldt, 1.9Vchipset.

2Gigs @ 250Mhz 1:1 2T 8,2,2,2.0, bankinterleave ON.

PCpitstop... 2233 (my Infinity is 1806)

32M Superpi mod 1.4 26m54.156sec... temp peaks 49C stock HSF

3D2K3 13075 (cpu 1356)
3D2K5 5931 (cpu 5611)... GPU Mhz dependent, Infinity sys gets 6300+
3D2K1 30159

HDTach 218MB/s burst, 116MB/s avg, 8.0ms access, 10% CPU utilization
Atto 0.5 10180write 27469read
Atto 1024 127522write 107440read

SSoft CPU 12755/5638
SSoftMEM 6004/6014.... 8000 theoretical max, 2T hurts here 75% rating
Everest 2.0 6635 read, 2300 write, 41.9ns lat

The new memory controller is working like a charm on 4 sticks. Strikes me X850XT's HSF should do better job, maybe I need to lap GPU mating surface, just AS3 still hits 72C GPU peak.

I am seeing a coldboot quirkyness. Warm boot its fine, rock solid, but unplug power, come back in a while, boot takes some trying. Maybe this needs tweaking of the startup Vcore? Any ideas?

That's what i'm saying, works for some, doesnt work for some :confused:
I'm guessing it's board issue...since 2 diff cpus doesnt work on mine.

Relax, check your bios setting again. Somthing is probably holding you back. PSU? RAM? BIOS Setting? 2.6GHz should be doable.

2.6 is not doable.

I had my fx55 at 3300mhz easy. Some reason its not likeing voltage or is speed binned. The 11x multi does not work at all past 250 fsb

i can barely get 9x270

Ok seems to be ok at 2.65 gighertz

this processor is lame on VAPO

Don't RMA it if it does stock speeds.
