What VCore are you running 3.0 shouldn't need much. Did you use to much paste installing that 120?Quote:

Just checked the Asus web site and the 907 bios was not posted??????
FTP is a gift to us testers, Sort of a beta if you will...
I want to try it out, but I won't be able to complete testing b4 I go up to OH for the holidays :(. I really look forward to fully testing it starting next thursday. Good luck you guys! Man I want a stable 4+GHz, even though I'm happy now...
on auto at 2.4ghz i get 5c less and i didnt use that much paste, i just followed arctic silver instructions and did a line across the core in the center.Quote:

0907 vs 0903
First thing I notice is the CPU is a lot lower. Core still look the about same.though.
hi wondering if you guys can help
i just had a custom system built
maximus formula non-se
qx9650 with asetek LCLC oem liquid cooling
2gb corsair dominator pc8500
8800 ultra
120mm fan back and another on the side
bios updated to 0903 with everything on auto
but i'm noticing my MB, NB, SB temps are unusually high. currently at 50,54,55on idle. how can i lower the temps to a reasonable level? i was going to add 3more stock 120mm fans on the side, would that help or should i look into heatsinks or watercooling? and what temp should i be at? thanks
My NB temp is around 47c idle, and I´ve reseated the heatpipe thing with AS5. Nothing to worry about actually...Quote:

The one on the side should be sucking air into the case, and the one on the back should be blowing out. You should have one on the front also sucking air in. Try also flashing your BIOS to 0907.Quote:

Hey all
I am contemplating buying this motherboard and I am wondering:
Why are people buying this board with "built-in" watercooling on the northbridge, only to replace this cooling solution?
Why not just buy the "regular" version and mount another watercooling solution on the northbridge?
Isn't the one installed ok? (if removed, proper TIM applied and remounted )etc...
907 Has me stable @ 9x400 @ 1.48V . My CPU gets too hot @ 72C so I'm not going to push it at all.
0907 stabalized me a bit (9x420). Buy super pi still errors out once in a while. This board I got back from RMA is a little more difficult to deal with. I thought 05xx was stable, but I was getting hagups in UT3. I have a feeling it's my memory or the fact that I have 4 sticks. Would OCing improve if I had 2x2gb sticks? I'll probably need to get faster memory for Yorkfield anyways.
It almost seems like I have a flaky install of Vista 64. Soudcard drivers, vga drivers, everything is acting up. I went to 169.21 and got rid of most of the hangs in UT3. but super-pi flakes out on me every once in a while.
edit: nm
Any bios past 0901 (0902,0903,0907) , do not boot for me with the same settings as 0901.
It boots up with : DET DRAM - CPU INIT - VGA BIOS ... and then DET DRAM again (stuck).
Seems the 0902 and above use a second detect ram method after the initial booting ?
0901 runs fine (memtest pass , occt pass , prime95 pass)
Anyone have an idea for solving it ?
can anyone downgrade back to 0802 or any other old version bios after upgrading to 0907? i hope it can...if not i am not flashing to this
The downgrade issue has been resolved along time ago :brick:Quote:

----------------------
1. Updated CPU level up module
2. Fix system freezes if been interrupted by USB devices before entering S3
3. Finetune CPU temperature detection algorithm
4. Enable N/2 ratio support for more CPU
My temps in CoreTemp got higher after the update.
Ne1 experience the same thing?
With 0907 bios 0.5 multis finaly work, just tried.
That did happent o me on my previous board. I went from 05xx to 0903 and temp readings went up 10c. This time I flashed from 05xx to 0907 and the temps seems normal, but I can still tell the sensors are hit and miss. (everest cpu temp is low but the core1 and core2 seem about right, GPU temps seem low, too)Quote:

I can run 2 instances at a time no problem and even 32m no problem, but if I run even a single instance of 1m right after another calculation finishes, it crashes.
What could be causing this? Is it a memory timing issue or some other memory setting?
Sorry but I cant help you about your SuperPi problem.Quote:

does anyone know why I can't change the multiplier on this 907 BIOS ??? Does it stay locked at 9x till I change another setting??
I finally figure out how to get it to 2.8 and keep my memory down as well :)
You need to use the + and - on the numpad to change the multiplier with the newer bios!
YES, just messed with that now and you can also enter a number in, before it use to allow you to hit enter and see valuesQuote:
