I have a week 24 that appears to be prime stable at 3.3ghz at 1.49 volts (stock cooling at 55C, tomorrow water gets stetup). I am hoping my water (pa120.3, storm, dd5, ek chipset block will let me get atleast 3.6 (though 4 was my original hope))

I solved it by deconnecting all USB devices (keyboard and mouse too!), then shutting down (with the poiwer button, configure it as such in power management). When the system was shut down, I reconnected the USB devices one by one, and now my XPSP2 shuts down correctly.
From another thread, that's air. 1.65v no thanks.Quote:

Benches Pi 3.7Ghz@1.575v (bios)
The highest I've had it to play with is 3.73GHz, but I'm stopping there as I'm not putting any more volts through it. Maybe they're not all bad?
Ok guyz, Im hoping you can shed some light on this:
Im on a E6600 week 24 does 3.6 ghz 4:5 stable 24/7 @ 1.5v (bios) on air. Except ive hit the wall. Only way i can get it this high is by enabling SPD timings. Which is crap cause i know my GEIL ultra memory can take upto DDR900 @ 4-4-4-12. Now my question is, will asus through a bios update be able to resolve the crap memory divider issue or am i doomed and have to wait for DFI to come out with a nicer board than the infinity :)
every 975x chipset based board owner needs to start playing with memset tRD, tRFC and other values http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=111400 will make a lot of difference especially to dual stressprime and other stability tests
yeh, but I don't like the idea of using memset at every boot. It just doesn't feel like a 24/7 thing to use..Quote:

You tried this ? http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=111400Quote:

edit eva2000 posted the link also I see :p:
hopefully Asus will have a bios like their P5B Deluxe for more timing options in bios, but for now try the memset test to confirm if it's your cpu, board and board MCH latencies or memory timings or any of these combinations that is causing your instability :)Quote:

Anyone has similar problems?
One of my USB devices 2,5" HDD does not allways work, Mobo and windows just do´nt recognise it :(
No matter what port it is connected.
The only problem with that is, Tras is set to 18 by AUTO yet in the BIOS it can only go up to 15, and there's also a 5th option for memory settings in the BIOS but it does not show up in Memset, atleast for me, but maybe I'm blind.Quote:

it`s just what the writer say`s "Asus need to provide access to far more RAM settings in the Bios. This might well be the cause of the FSB wall and would explain why different people get the wall at different points "
Damn I am starting to hate asus for this crappy :banana::banana::banana::banana: of a board. I have no oc what so ever but the mobo still hangs on post or is VERY slow at it.
Really think this is a pre production junk that should be shipped in half a year when they fixed the tons of bugs :(
How do I change sata header as stated in the first post ??
Mine did the same. Sometimes it recognised it sometimes I didn't. Got annoying so I plugged in a spare usb 2.0 pci controller I had lieing around. Works everytime now and no need to wait at POST for mobo to detect drives. ;)Quote:

Yup, that'll be the SB temp
my P5W and E6400 can do 400FSB nice (no freezes in windows), but when I start the ORTHOS SP2004 with large FFT-s then it gives me an erroro randomly. once i could run it 9h straight without error (then i shut down the computer), but today it gave me an errory within the first hour. ive upped the MCH voltage to 1,6V (no drop by a multimeter) and the vcore up to 1,35V.
maybe someone has an idea to solve this problem. or I just keep trying with different settings.
btw my P5W has the newest bios 1101
Mine does the same.Quote:
