I would up FSBT to 1.40Quote:

Or you can start by posting all your settings.Quote:

i need a cpu for my backup rig since my e2180 isnt cutting it for what i want. so i figured i'd take the q6600 out of my main rig.(specs in my sig)
what would be a good upgrade from a q6600 in these maximus/rampage boards. are the yorkfields clocking well in these? or should i just get a wolfdale for the backup rig and keep the q6600.
ive got a spare q6600 with vid 1.225 if you are interested. just got it yesterday and only tested for vid.Quote:

Mounting using the Dtek pro mount so mount should be good. CPU is at 1.37V but have dropped to stock speed and voltage but temps only drop about 1-2C.
Even tried removing the CPU hold down and using HS as hold down thinking the HS may be hitting plate made no difference.
HELP!
bought the cpu from this postQuote:

but i dont mind international shipping as i get a really good shipping rate and i know how to avoid duties and taxes (vat) ;).
just drop me a pm as we are getting off topic here but i would do it for what i paid for it.
Okay i will try that. ThanksQuote:

Maybe we can help sort your issue out.
i tried raid 0 with 2 new raptors when i first built the computer.. it failed a drive. we stuck it in my brothers and it worked just fine. i got a couple other raptors anyway. i tried raid 0 again a few times with different drives. raid 5, raid 10 a few times also. i now have 5 raptors. raid 10 with parrity would last the longest but eventually after a few drives rebuilding it would go away also.. updated drivers, upping my nb volts pretty much everything.. new sata cables. i even changed out my 4x1 sticks of crucial balistix with 2x2 sticks of corsair to see if that was causing it. i think my board is just hosed on the raid controller or somthing.. the only thing i havn't changed was my psu which is a x3 1k but it seams to run just fine with everything.. i pretty much got installing everything over and over again down so at least i learned a bunch in that aspect. it would work for a day or two a week or more then a drive would drop off. if i restarted my computer a different one would and sometimes if i restarted again it wouldn't show any bad drives.. it's very strange..
Do we have a new bios in our mist? Can anyone confirm this Bios 1006?
Try raising your pci-e latency to 110. See if that helps. what are your SB/SB 1.5v figures?Quote:

Hi, well they still recommend their memory on the Crucial's website http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/list...l%20Edition%29Quote:

Those are PC2-5300 suggestions. Grnfinger specifically said DDR2800 and 1066 modules.Quote:

Been playing with my voltages a bit... With Performance Level @ 8 (PIns Enabled) or @ 7 (PIns Disabled) I need 1.71v (Bios) to not get the DetDram error on random boots. I need less than 1.61v to actually run it Prime/Orthos/OCCT/Folding stable but 1.71v (Bios) to stop the error. Quirky board.
I'm going to test some Micron D9 Fatbody in it soon, some no name eBay stuff that is good for 1200MHz 5-5-5-12 with 2.4v (Fatbody FTW)!

The performance level found in RF bios does affect the NB volt that you need to set to get your OC stable and to eliminate det ram hang. Performance level 8 with pull-ins enabled or level 7 disabled seems to be the sweet spot for higher fsb OC at >450+Quote:
