thanks.... i'll try it... i've a e6420... and with the 1104 run ok.... very well 3.7ghz stable!Quote:

4gb Corsair Cas4 6400 memory

The system runs stable after being stress-tested for 24hours+, and this is the only problem with it.
The problem has happened both when directly connecting to my cable modem and when going through a WRT54g/Netgear switch. It does not happen on any other computers that are in our network.
Brief description of the problem:
Basically, when I'm using Firefox, certain pages don't seem to load properly. They'll load 1/2 way, or will not load the CSS but will load the page data. Other than that everything seems fine but that problem itself is quite annoying.
Any way I can test to see what the problem actually is? Here's a video of one of the more obvious problems (first problem occurs about 2:25 in). The other problems, as mentioned, are images not loading fully, connection suddenly basically dying but still "working", CSS not loading fully or properly..

This is really a PITA to try to diagnose. Probably will toss a new network card in the computer soon to see if that helps. Any other ideas?
It's happened/happening on two separate HDs and two separate installations of Windows, also, FWIW.

I am trying to reach the vicinity of 3.6 to 3.8 Ghz stable on Big Typhoon Air with my Core Duo X6800 Extreme on the P5B board 1104 bios. I am stable right now at 3520 (320 x 11 multi on 4:5) My memory is Crucial Ballistix DDR2-800 4-4-4-12. Core temps run 39C at idle, and rarely surpass 60C on a full load (e.g. dual POVRay renderings at the same time). All voltages are auto with the exception of VDimm, which is set at 2.25V. When I up the multi to 12, I can post, but can't boot into Windows. Just get a black screen with no activity. When I move the bus timings up to 330 still on the stock multi, I can hit 3.63 Ghz, and run a sub-14 Super Pi (see attached), but my graphics are pretty herky-jerky, and when I close out of windows, the machine balks and makes a gravelly kind of popping sound. I know the Extremes aren't the greatest for overclocking, but I was hoping to move that torque up to where I can push around my CAD drawings with more authority. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Dan
On above post. Make that 1004 bios.
Holy crap Thats so awesome, DL drafting BTW welcome to the forum's
I am still reluctant to upgrade to the 1004 BIOS
711 is still the best in my oppion just due to the fact I have used it forever.
Still missing 2.2v on memory
what voltage i can give to NB for 24/7 usage?
1.55 or 1.65?
1.65 is a little much I'd imagine. Even with good cooling, I start to wonder about any possible effects of electromigration.
That said, intel's specsheets say:
Intel 965 Express Chipset Family - Datasheet
http://www.intel.com/design/chipsets...hts/313053.htm
11.1 Absolute Minimum and Maximum Ratings
Table 10-1. Absolute Minimum and Maximum Ratings
VCC (1.5 V Core voltage with respect to VSS) –0.3V / 1.375V (Min/Max)
VTT (System Bus Input Voltage with respect to VSS) –0.3V / 1.32V (Min/Max)
11.3.1 I/O Buffer Supply Voltage
Table 11.4 I/O Buffer Supply Voltage
VCC (MCH Core Supply Voltage) 1.188V / 1.25V / 1.313V (Min/Typ/Max)
VTT (System Bus Input Supply Voltage) 1.14V / 1.20V / 1.26V (Min/Typ/Max)
which really is extremely low if you ask me, and most everyone runs higher, so I don't know if that's too conservative or what.
Personally, I wouldn't exceed 1.55v. I figure that should be more or less "ok" since gigabyte ds3 automatically does +0.3v when you overclock fsb to a certain point and keep vmch on auto.
That said, it might also not be a bad idea to use a DMM and measure your vmch. When I set 1.55v on my p5b, I actually got 1.60v.
What's ucode?Quote:

Thanks for the welcome, Muk'ster, I have learned quite a bit perusing these links. Thanks for your input and all the others besides.
As to the overclock, I did try bumping the northbridge core voltage to 1.45, it seemed to help stabilize things a little. I was able to close out of the program without the static sounds at 3.64 Ghz. However, the screen froze on reboot. I must be pretty close to the limit on that 4:5 ratio. Can't seem to get very good results with the 1:1, though. Can't figure that. Have a great day. Dan
guys i need help !
got the board to day and what do i find out that i can max use multie 12 with my QX6700 , any one knows a bios that gives me a higher max multie ?
plz i need it fast
greetz and thanks blind
Have you tried it on the other ethernet port? I have one port that drops connection for short periods. Just a thought.

Rob, Dumb question, you do have your PCI Bus locked at 33.33MHz in the bios right!

I'm wondering if it's wrong or not, because my E6300 runs at 3Ghz@1.22v, and probably at default speed needs 1.1625v, not 1.325v..
Could someone who flashed to 1201 verify the VID change in CT?
what version of coretemp are you using? and do you have an a chip or something else? lxxxaxxx
edit: just saw your sig. hmm that's strange. i thought all a chips were 1.325
I'm using 0.95 and I've seen chips with different VIDs but it's pretty strange if it's changing from a bios version to another.
same here... With 1004/1101, 1.325v VID. It shows 1.1875v with 1201 beta.:eek:Quote:

I seated and reseated cooler for 10 times, checked the CPU and cooler surface, i replaced stock contact paste with more quality like paste. and still no improvement.
i read that the deafults should be 30-35 idle.
I overclocked nothing, all is on auto, motherboard is ASUS P5B-Deluxe/wifiap
Programs used to measure temps are coretemp and TAT.
My default vcore is 1.28v checked with Cpu-Z
HELP!!
I tried setting voltages by hand and still no luck, still high temps. Besides the fact that i have 0.4 vdropp !!!
I tested on another mobo ASUS P5 somethong with integrated gpu, and temps on idle were 30-35. (same stock cooler)
I didnt lapp IHS (beacuse atm its flat as it should be ) but i was planning when i OC this baby to shave few degrees off, which i cannot start beacuse it doesnt even work properly on stock settings.
systems temps is normal ~30.
I will probably RMA the board, which will probably be a huge problem, cause here if it works, its a big fight to get it replaced... but i am just buffled by this overheating.... and i will do my best to get a new one.
I've just hoped that someone had seen something like this before, because in my 8 years as sys builder i havent...
I think your temps are fine.Quote:
