hey guys, i just saw the booster and gear functions in my AIsuite
does anyone use these, and are they any good?
I suppose not
I used to use them, they work well, however I, and almost everyone else much prefers to use setfsb.Quote:

okay can anybody help me here?
i flashed my bios to 0906 and only to find out that it's :banana::banana::banana::banana:, after flash i set my previous oc settings(e6850@3.5ghz) and it won't boot to windows, then i look my settings closely to check nothings is wrong and i notice from hw monitor that even thought i set my vcore to 1.36 i only get 1.25 O_O and then i come here and see ppl telling about this bug...so what is the way to get my old 0602 back?
what default vid on your 6850? 1.25?Quote:

Edit: Just make sure when you flash in windows to stop anything running that could interupt the flashing process.
Just set the voltage in the BIOS ~0.08V or so higher and you will get the same effect as what you had with the previous BIOS.Quote:

I have been keeping up with this thread, and have flashed my p5ke from 806 (which allowed me to overclock my e6400 to 3.5 ghz easily, as long as left cpu voltage on auto), to 906, which worked as well. I have since flashed back to 603 (thanks for the good advice about the older asus update utility) and achieved 3.7 ghz with voltage damper (load line calibration, whatever you want to call it) DISABLED. I had to set my vcore in bios kind of high (~1.5875 I think) but my temps were well under control and I did expierience some of the vdrop b/c in windows it was detected as 1.5v. But the reason I tried this WITHOUT vdrop was that I was reading the article on anandtech pgs 5 & 6(http://www.anandtech.com/cpuchipsets...px?i=3184&p=6). It actually allowed me to achieve a higher oc and better benching without this feature enabled. Actually, at anand, they mention this feature specifically. So please keep this in mind if theres a possibilty that it might be thrashing your cpu.

how do i flash to 603?
i bought a board and its using 5xx something.
i just DL'd the 603 rom and tried it with ezflash and it doesnt let me.
am i gonna have to use a floppy?
or should i just update to the latest one via ezflash. then use the asusupdate to downgrade to 603?
download 603 to usb flash memory stick then use ezflash in bios to flash.
I'm getting a E8400 in a few weeks and this board is first on my list so far to run with it. I've got a few quesitons for you guys that will hopefully confirm things for me.
1) Will a wolfdale work with a brand new P5K-E/Wifi out of the box with no bios update?
2) What max fsb can I look forward to getting with this board?
3) Is this board picky with ram? I've got 4gb of A-Data Extreme Vitesta 800 (4-4-4-12) that I belive is D9GMH.
4) Last Question: Do you guys think this is a good board to run with a wolfdale and if not, what would be best? ($150 budget for board)
1) I don't think so, someone on a forum in Aus tried it and it wouldn't post, but I'm not certain.Quote:

3) not that I know of, again not certain though.
4) Yes I do, but there are plenty of decent alternatives for about the same price, eg. DFI Blood Iron P35, Gigabyte P35-DS4, Abit IP-35 Pro, etc. Any of these are good choices afaik.
thats the thing.Quote:

is something wrong with my board??
Same here. I can never update using that ezflash crap in the bios. Bought a memstick for nothing...
I always do it using Asus Update in windows and it worked perfectly for me. You might want to try that.
Downloaded the 0602.rom, dropped it on a Flash Drive, rebooted, Hit Alt + F2, selected 0602.rom then let it do it's thing.
Very simple, and the Vdroop/vdrop is amazing, set to 1.45 in BIOS and reads 1.43 in CPU-Z and Everest. ;)
I'm also having trouble with my RAM, when I first tried to install the Mobo I put my RAM in and the system would power up but nothing would happen, I took it back to Fry's and they got it to post so my buddy brought some RAM over and it booted fine, with both of ours in there, he then took his out and it booted up fine with my Ballistix.
I tried running 1T and got the same thing, turned on but nothing happened, no BIOS no POST. So we had to do the same thing all over. I'm afraid to even touch anything in the BIOS now cause I don't want this to happen again. What kind of RAM should I be running in this thing..?
Criswell did you P5K-E come in a blakc box or a blue box?

That's exactly how it should be done!:clap:Quote:
