i still bench mine..just looking for some high Q ram to get me over this 610mhz FSB zone.. using crap IC's for waaaaaay to long atm. :o

Have a look at the GSkill 9600 PI-kit --> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231201Quote:

I think this is user related and not the board nor the rams :rofl: move on CL3P20 , buy either a REX and some real DDR3 , don't waste cash on DDR2 mate...Quote:

No way Im dropping 120+ $ on ddr2 at this point.. its not worth the 'boints' at all. Besides, Ive been pricing some 1156 setups against some am3's.. might be time to finally step into some AMD benching for a bit ;)
keeping this as my 775 setup though.. insta-boints for any GPU + 3D'01 :up:
@Lee and CL3P20-
Do either of you know if something is wrong with my MIIF, if I leave the psu plugged into the wall, it'll always boots fine, but if I remove the psu power cord from the wall AC, I always get prompted 'F1' for setup (and the year after it boots is 2002) after it's plugged back in....
Not that I'm in the habit of unplugging it when I'm done, but desk real estate is minimal, and even tho it's my favorite backup pc, it's in my main rigs parking spot... thanks-
I used to have the same prob back in my MIIF days...
I'll take that as it's 'just a MIIF thing'.....thanks Joebar-Quote:

Keep it up CL3P and I may have to Dice on one of these boards.
..been thinking of LN and a E8600 next... go 6ghz+
Never think , just do it :)
Have you checked CPU-Z only reads out 1024 mb in dual channel ? 2 x 512 ?
Yes.. got some "good" IC's from a friend across the pond :D These MIIF's are funny with the RAM they like at times.. Im just glad it decided to play nice with these Kingston's..already been through 4x other sets trying to find something more suitable for higher FSB use. :yepp:Quote:

-spent hours playing with my 3870 the other night..temp limit at 970mhz core though :( @ -60c ... core starts to arti with more volts, and just grey screen with more core speeds.. = poooo
Great work is here :) Keep pushing it man :up:
Has anybody tried the new 2302 BIOS?
BIOS 2302 released June 25, 2010
http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/...rmula-2302.zip
thanks..will try :D
Just a heads up that I have my MIIF along with 2 other Giga ep45 boards & ocz 2x1gb mems, 2x 2gb G.Skill Pi's, (both of which are capable way beyond 1250 MHz), and h20 bits for sale in my Ebay uk account (search my username). Items are also mentioned in the for sale section and have an asking price, or they can all go on reserve-free auction! (the MIIF is a rev A2 northbridge btw :))

Would like to know if the new bios did anything for the board...pullins working yet?
Guys, can you share your E8400 or E8500 500x9, PL=8, BIOS settings?
Thanks in advance ;)
I only have this (500x8, PL=10) settings for you and because it`s a older post the GTLs are at "Auto", but you have to find your right GTLs by yourself anyway: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...33#post3847409
OK, so I'm thinking my Q6600 (B3) temps are way high, and on my second call to Intel, they issue me an RMA-
--FAST FORWARD--
UPS delivers a new Q6600 (G0) from Intel, (I'm d-e-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y NOT complaining)-
But now it looks like my Northbridge and Southbridge are running hotter than ever-
I suppose I could do 'the washer mod', but when I re-applied TIM to the Northbridge a couple of months ago, it seemed snug-enough
Any thoughts on these PROBE 2 temps? Thanks-
Q6600 @3014.4MHz
CPU Voltage =1.3125v
CPU PLL =1.5v
FSB Term =1.206v
DRAM =2.1v
Northbridge =1.33850v
Southbridge/1.5 =1.5v
Southbridge/1.1 = 1.1v
