Had a little issue this morning. Flashed to the newest bios (f9 i believe) i was running the original bios. Anyways, flashed with q-flash and all went well until i tried to boot into windows, one of my four raptors is no longer a member disk in my raid, anyway to quickly fix this or am i SOL and need to rebuild the array and reinstall?
I had the same problem last week when the DualBIOS feature loaded the shipping BIOS F4 on to my board and that had a setting in it which caused the MBR on one of my RAID0 disks to be written with data and caused it to show as no longer a member of my RAID setup.Quote:

It worked perfectly for me.

This is stable for 8 hours + prime with cpu temps in low 60s max, nb is 3-5 degrees more
Also passed 50 iterations Intelburn, max temps 75-78, avg 73
What should I try adjusting to get higher clocks? I can boot and run at 500x9 but not as stable as I like, and lots more volts with high IB temps- in 90s. I am putting in the new g.skill lv 1200 sticks this weekend and hope that will help things.
I wanted to ask early in the week to get suggestions. I have tried several hundred combinations and logged all. Honestly I have no clue what I am doing- how different settings relate. I have discovered that different settings with the same speed yeild different super pi results, with the fastest being somewhat more stable.
I greatly appreciate the constructive criticism and advise. I have learned much in this forum.
Thanks
Hi All
I decided to post this thread
I have been playing with this board
Its interesting.

It was stable on prime 95 for about 1/2 hour this morning, will do more testing tonight and see if it's really stable. Mem is at 5-5-5-15. Air-cooled.
Finally got my 9650 on water. This is a bit messy but until I decide how to mount everything it will have to do. Put it together as a temporary setup so wire management is pretty bad. The res I ordered will not fit inside the case. I used velcro extreme and a ziptie to mount it to the side of the rad, guess I should have looked at the specs before ordering :eek:. Temps are good though so I am pretty happy. Had a minor leak but not inside the case, got that fixed and seems to be ok now. Next I would like to get a NB Block.
Haha, that is messy. But if it works.... Are you using home depot tubing? I'm using that stuff because I was too lazy/cheap to get the better stuff. I will say that the cheap stuff is a huge pain to use because they are so stiff. You can't really maneuver anything around without putting force on the nozzles. So yeah, if you do decide NB, i recommend good tubing, clearflex at the least. Especially given how close your NB is to your CPUQuote:

How are the temps? Any before/after?
Thanks Jor3lBR, I don't have any before and after but the temps are much better. I can prime up to 1.475v bios now without going over 75c, could never do that before.
Injuis, I ordered some from sidewinder but ordered the wrong thing so I picked this up from Lowes. I actually like this tubing but for the nb I will get something different. If you heat the tubing in warm (distilled) water it is easy to work with and when it cools it keeps the shape/bend you formed.
Have been working on higher FSB today, Priming at 512x8.5. http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/1903/512o.png

Thank you Sergio.
Got them today, cleared CMOS and installed, booted right up. Runs at 1200 easily, everything okay with memtest. Booted as high as 1275, but not stable there-at least at my settings. B and D run okay, but doesnt like C.
Frustrated because I stll cant get stable above 4300. These sticks were not the magic bullet- guess I have to go water cooling after all.
If anyone has any suggestions on how to get more on air, let me know.

I am running stock 9.5x333 @ 1.216 vcore
CoreTemp: 45
BIOS: 35
Is this possible ? 45 Celsius with stock speed ?
Running IntelBurn Test at Maximum level, i got 58 C. WTF ?
EDIT:
Let's go for 6x473 @ 1.216 | 1.3VTT
1st attempt: Black Screen at Windows
2st attempt: BSOD during IBT
Should I :
a) Raise the VTT ?
b) Low the MCH Ref ?
c) Raise MCH Core ?
d) Raise CPU PLL ?
Hi there,
I recently switched over from a Maximus Formula x38 @ Rampage x48 to the EP45-UD3P.
Today's overclock-day so here's a little worklog. Any input is very welcome.
The full system specs are in my signature, but we're dealing with an E8500 C0 here.
The RAM was capable of something remotely stable on 1200-5-5-5-18 4x1GB. I'm aiming at <=DDR2-1200.
I'm looking at getting the maximum out of my RAM while maintaining the highest stable CPU OC.
I consider "stable" roughly 5 minutes of OCCT testing. After such stability I move on to the next step, until instability shows up, then I back off and start long-term testing.
DRAM 1:1, 2v (should suffice up to DDR2-1050/1100 on loose timings)

Any input on the 4.2GHz+ settings is more than welcome.
On to setting RAM settings:
My Maximus needed the following voltages for the following frequencies to be remotely stable:

So, as it seems my UD3P doesn't like it when I up the voltage of my RAM, which I think is really odd. If anyone can give me info on this it'd be much appreciated.
"So, as it seems my UD3P doesn't like it when I up the voltage of my RAM, which I think is really odd. If anyone can give me info on this it'd be much appreciated."
I can't give you any info on this other than mine is like that also. Just letting you know. I'm don't know if it is in certain situations, but at times if I try to clock high and have vdimm too high, bad results. Lower vdimm and it works ok. Oddly enough, around the recommended voltage seems best. I can do well around 2.2v to 2.4v
6x455 seems pretty steady.
Quote:
Linx - Problem Size 20 000 - 2 Hours
Orthos - Small FFT & Priority 9 - 5 Hours
IBT - Stress Level Maximum - 20 loops
So, I am trying 6x560 but IBT failed at 4th loop. So what I am supposed to do now ?
Should I :
Raise CPU Termination Voltage (aka VTT)
Raise MCH Core Voltage
Other action ( ? ? ? )
Dr.Paneas,
It would help us all help you better if you put your systems specs in your sig.
I can do 471 X 8.5= 4.0 perfectly stable but I go into a non stop rebooting loop never getting to bios if I try 534 X 7.5 = 4.0. This is on my Q9550 E0 VID 1.16 cpu with the latest official bios. anybody have any ideas? I am trying to get my 1066 ram back up closer to its rated speed.
Does anyone know if 2 Enzotech mst-81's will fit on the mosfets on the UD3R? I'm thinking about ditching my P5Q D for one and would like to throw the chipset heatsinks from the P5Q on it.
Thanks
new bios "10b" @ tweaktown. anyone try it??? :)
